OLD MIR. ToAD's MISTAKES.
By Thornton W. Burgess.

Copyright. 1914. by !. &. Lloyd.)
If is a. very little word to. look at.
but the biggest word You have AVG
seen doesn't begin to have so much
meaning as little 'if." If Jimmy
Skunk hadn't ambled down the Crook
ed Little Path just when he did; If
he hadn't been looking for fat
beetles: If he hadn't seen that big
piece of bark at one side and decided
to pull it over: IF it hadn't been for
all these ifs. why. Old Mr.. Toad
did and you wouldn't have had this
story. But Jimmy Skunk did amble
down the Crooked Little Path. he. did
look for beetles. and he did pull Owe
that big piece of bark. And when. he
had pulled 1t I'VE he found Old Mr..
Toad there. and Old Mr.. Toad had
just walked from his long winter sleep.
He had crept under that piece Of bark
because he wanted to keep out Of
sight until he felt a little more awake
before he started out to find some
thing to eat.
But. when Jimmy Skunk told him
that he had seen Mr.. B~lacksnake that
very morning and that Mr.. Blackenske
had asked after Old Mr.: Toad, the
very last bit Of sleepiness left Old Mr..
Toad. Yes. sir, he was wide awake
right away. You see he knew why
Mr.. B~lacksnake had asked after him.
He knew that Mr.. Blacksnake had
been asleep all winter and that he
must be very hungry. and he knew
that Mr. .Blacksnake. had q fondness
for toads: He turned quite pale when
he heard that Mr.. Blacksnake had
asked after him, and right then he
made his first mistake. He was. in
such a hurry to get away from that
neighborhood that he forgot to ask
Jimmy Skunk just where he had seen
AIR. B~lacksnake. He hardly waited
long enough to say good.by to Jimmy
Skunk. but started OFF Just as fast as
he could 30.
!. Now it Just happened that Old Mr..
Toad started up the Crooked -1Attie-
Path. and it Just happened that Mr.

It was so with. old. Mr.. Toad. Instead
of watching out in front a. he hoped
along he kept watching over his Shout.
der, and that was his second mistake.
He was-so sure that Mr.. HlackSnake
was somewhere behind him that he
didn't look to see where he was 60:

right into trouble. .
Old MI. Toad went hopping up the
Crooked Little Path as fast as he
could, which wasn't very fast, because
he never a hop very fast, and Just
now he was weak. because of his long
winters sleep and because he hadn't
yet got the kinks out Of his legs. And
all tho time he kept looking behind
for. Mr.. Blacksnake. Presently he

Path, and as he hurried around. II Ne

most surprised. For Just q wee rec.

They have followed me all these
years:
They have given a form to my. youth

And they scattered my foolisl, fears.
They have stayed my feet on many a

For just in time I would paust, and
