BEDTIME STORIES
FOR LITTLE
FOLKS
MR.. FOx'S FRIENDS.

: 1t had been a very long cold winter
, land many of the animals in the woods
had found il hard to get enough to
'eat.
Mr.. Fox, however, had not been one
of those who were unfortunate. foi
this had been very prosperous win
ter for him.
The farmers had found it impossible
TO keep Mr.. Fox out of their poultry
yards and houses. and Mr. Fox grew
fat while many of his friends in the
woods grew thin.
His friends had called many times
at his house, knowing full well he had
a well-filled pantry. and as they had
many times had Mr. Fox at their
home for supper and dinner they had
respected now when he had so much
and they had so little to eat that he
would ask them 10 eat at his table.
| But Mr. Fox didn't do anything of
| the sort. He would eat a very big
breakfast and then if anyone called
he would let them stay and stay until
| they felt quite sure Mr.. Fox did not
intend to bring on any food for them
and they would go away hungry.
They needn't think | am going to
hunt and run my legs off bringing
thOme chickens and geese for them"
he would say. after he had closed the
idoOr on one or two Of his neighbors.
Times are' hard for all of us and
just because | happen to be able to-
find something to eat, do not see
why | should have to divide with all
the neighbors. Friends are nuis-
ance, anyway. If | did not have any
friends at all should be far happier
and could eat in peace"
One night. when the wind was blow
ing and the snow falling fast, Mr. Fox
looked into his pantry and found he
had plenty of food to last for several
days. Il will not go over the hill to-
might" he said, 'it is far too cold. and

Mr. Fox was so badly frightened he
could not do a thing but stare with
twide-open mouth, but his friends and
ineighbors worked hard and soon they
had put out the fire. but the house was
$50 full of smoke that Mr.. Fox could

ito come over to his house and stay
that night.
But before he went Mr.. Fox told his
friends that he was sure that the pan

cared to get in the pantry window
they might eat all they found.
