SQUIRRELS AND GIANT HELP

"a little Girl" commenced Daddy,
was sitting down near an old cave in
the woods the other day crying as
though her heart would break.
She sobbed and sobbed. The Birds
flew about and sang CHEEKY little
songs to make her feel better. but she
didn't seem to pay any attention.
Pretty soon several Squirrels
scampered by and they cried, too,
when they saw her crying, for they
are very kind hearted and like little
Girls. These Squirrels had known a
great many nice Children who had
given them nuts and they felt very
bad that one should be sitting all
alone sobbing in such a sad way.

rel. I think he whispered to the

crying
My name is Tiddy,' said the little
Girl, and I've boo-hoo-I've lost
"She couldn't go any farther. and
no matter how hard the Squirrels
tried to talk to her she sobbed and
sobbed.
Pretty soon one of them said, Let s
ask our old friend, the Giant, to sug-
gest some way of stopping Tiddy from
crying
"'Oh,' said Tiddy, between her sobs
he may eat me up and stop my cry
ing that way. But I've lost And
then she burst out crying again.
Dear me, no. said the Squirrel
who had suggested the Giant. He is
the kindest Giant you can imagine
Why, he's our best friend. He lives
in this Cave and whenever we go to
call on him he gives US nuts to eat and
sends home nuts to our Mothers and
Daddies. And he tells US wonderful
stories of his adventures. He's as biz
as the Cave, but he can curl UP way
inside where none of tho real People
will bother him. He's afraid II hG

State Pay for Guardsmen.
( Rutland IIerald.)

\hullduu IttfaIU.j
If the encampment of the Vermont
militia at Fort Ethan Allen is to ex-
tend over any considerable time and
is looks as thought it might-it will
clearly be the duty of the state to pro-
vide extra pay for the guardsmen who
will in that instance become soldiers of
the United States.
The pay for privates is so small and
the sacrifice demanded so considerable
that Vermont should feel a response
bility in the matter as great, perhaps,
as that which confronted the legisla-
! tme of 1898, when the Vermont regi-
ment was mustered into the service Of
| Uncle Sam for the Spanish-American
war.
I Governor Gates is apparently wait
ing for further orders from General
! Wood, which might determine the
length of time the regiment might be
in camp, and whether it Is likely to be
ordered South, but it seems fairly cleal
to the ordinary observer that the con
, tingency of an extra session must b,
faced-eXpensive as it may be-im or
der to vote the necessary appropria
ton for state pay and for advancing
money to meet regimental expense
prior to the disbursement of funds b,
the federal government.
One thing should be determined earl
and that is to make sure that no mat
ter not necessary to such an extraoI
: binary session should be permitted t
come up IN either house. Once Il
