BY FLORENCE E. YODER-

-OM TABBY put his paws in his
pockets, and pulled his cap down
Il over his eyes, and mussed up his
ears in the most awful manner as he
did so. He did not care about that,
though He had other things to -wor-
~ him. Try as he might 1t dld not
seem possible for him to be good be-
fore Christmas.
He Just seemed to change full into
naughtiness and to get caught every
single time. He decided at last that
it was only when he played with his
kitty sisters and brothers that he got
into trouble.
So he went off by himself, wandered
down at the back of the lot, and looked
at the small playhouse which stood
there. 1t was not such a little play
house, after all, for it had once been
used when the Tables were very small
as their own home, but when great
big house appeared one day in Tabby-
land, they moved into it and left the
smaller house for playthings and odds
and ends of toys. They called II the
shed. but it had really been a very re
spectacle looking playhouse in its day
He looked at the open door in the
front, and then walked around to the
back. There sat the rest of the Iap-

them was a small pile of wood, and

from him. But you said you did not

up and ran to Tom.
Come and make the fire. burn for
us we can't get it started
And so poor Tom, who wanted so TO
be good. allowed himself to be cOaXed
-, mil with them. but TO
actually be the one to light the tlre!
They lit il. oh yes they did, and so
near Christmas! But that was not the
worst thing that they did.
They left that fire, did not put IL
entirely out, and went away. While
they were in the house, it wlggled ana
slipped, and coughed and smacked, and
Easped and finally stretched out SO
that it was able to touch the shed!
, And then it jerked away, and came
back stronger than ever, and the next
minute it jumped on rotten place,
and began eating it away Just as II II
were the best kind of candy In tacJ,
that fire went after that shed Just
as If it loved it!
In the meantime the Tables were in
the house eating their supper and
minding their p's and as, and remem-
bering not to lick their paws at Ine
! table-in fact they were acting just
/ the way all boys and girls act around
Christmas time, when Tom. who had
/ offered to get some water for his
mother-dear looked out of the back
kitchen window.
By that time the fire was running
and leaping and hugging all over the

pouring out of the small windows. The
