I wou!d encourage you to link your

you should never lose sight Of the

particular reform. Our people mus
not become confused about what the

THE LITTLE WHITE TERROR :.

TIME field was very quiet and
peaceful in the beautiful morn
ing sun Birds were singing
There was a rabbit out on the grass
from the big warren situated where
the old, tangled, double hedge joined
the wood, and there were two black
and shining rocks waddling about look
ing for grubs.
Suddenly the rocks rose with start
led clamor, the rabbit ran in in a hur-
ry, and all the birds except robin left
off singing, Four men, with guns and
bags and spades and two dogs, had en-
tered the field quietly. and made their
way up along the hedge to the warren.
Arrived at the warren. they flung
down spades and bags and loaded
their guns. They were still very quiet
The bags looked rather uncanny, be
cause they rolled and danced about in
a very odd fashion, like live things. al
though they made no sound.
Then one of the men knelt by
into one OF the bags. drew forth a
strange. long, hat-headed. sharp
nosed. pnk-eyed. short-legged. white
beast. with caorse fur the color Of
ivory. He was an odd little animal,
because of the extreme shortness of his
legs compared to the great length of
body. terminated with a medium bushy
tail, and because of the look of coolly
savage ferocity stamped upon him He
scratched like a fend at the fingers of
the man who had hold of him round
the back of the neck, and snarped at,
and narrowly missed, the mans other
hand. incautiously held near him.
The Ferret at Work.
He was a ferret, and his business in
life was 10 drive out rats and rabbits
for his master and friends to kill This
accounted for his shape and character,
for 1t is not every animal who is able.
or willing. to turn fierce old boar rats
out of their homes
The man calmly threw the ferret
down at the mouth of the burrow. and
the ferret, after picking himself up
equally calmly, sneezed twice. and
dropping his head TO the ground ex-
actly after the manner Of a ouesting
hound, ran in and vanished
Now. rabbits holes, even II they ap-
pear to run in horizontally, almost in.
vRrisbly drop sharp down Just inside
the entrance. This is because a
wounded rabbit should be able TO slide
in out Of danger merely by his own
weight And therefore the ferret
