Just Before It's Bedtime
BILLY GOAT AND BILLY PIG GO BERRYING.

LILY PIGS mother wanted some
u berries to preserve, 30 she told
u Billy Pig II he and Billy Goat
would pick them for her she
would nx UP q nice lunch for them and
give them q whole Jar OF the berries
after they were preserved.
So one morning they started of to
the woods with their lunch basket and
tin pals. They found a shady spot
where they could leave their basket ana
they went deeper into the woods for
berries
Now. Old Mr.. Bear who lived under
the hill saw them. and when they were
well into the woods he went round an
other way, thinking he could catch them
easier where the woods grew thicker.
BILLY Pig is nice and fat" he said.
"and while Billy Goat Is not SO tender.
I can keep him in my den until he is in
better condition"
Billy Pig and Billy Goat were busy
picking berries, when old Mr.. Bear came
alons. but Billy Goat held UP his head
and shifted the air. although he could
not see him.
.'Billy Pig" he whispered. II am
afraid old Mr. Bear is not far on; but
We must make believe We are not aware
of his presence. and II you do as 1 tell
YOU we may escape. but II you act
hi, afraid or look about he will surely
catch u.s."
BilIv Pig began to tremble. for he
saw that Billy Goat was shaking
little as he spoke.
lis he near enough to see us? he
asked in a whisper.
ct do not think so yet. but he will
be. and we must be ready for him
now. You ask me IL I am hungry In
minute and we must talk about the
good things in the basket.
Billy Pig waited until he heard
little noise in the bushes, and then he
said: IT can hardly wait unit II is
J time to eat our lunch. Are you hungry.
Billy Goat?'
He was trembling a little and ne
did not talk as loud as Billy Goat
when he replied.
IT am always hungry when I think
Of the good things that your mother
cooks. Did she put in any seed cook
les. do you know
.I think so,' replied Billy Pig in a
| weak voice.
Billy Goat gave him a poke with the
| foot nearest and said: Il am glad she
did. and I suppose she also put ir
some cheese and a nice pot OF honey
| didn't she?"
Billy Pig began to understand nov
| that Billy Goat was talking for the ben
eft of old Mr.. Bear. and ne took cour
age from Billy Goats manner and an
swered. Yes. she put in two pots o
honey and a pot of jam and 4 Jelly roll.

me-" said Biily Goat. but we mus
