FIRST LESSON IN SWIMMING
coaxing Proving Unavailable, Mother
Muskrat Pushed Her Young Ones
From the Bank

At the pool our attention was al
tracted by a comical picture made by
an old muskrat trying to teac.l her
babies to swim 1t struck me as
strange that she should go to such
trouble, the little rats should have
known instinctively how to navigate,
but they clung to the bank and to
the shallow water, above which
rose their fluffy backs, bright eyes
and sharp noses.
The mother set them the example
by swimming across and back. She
endeavored to coax, and finally she
pushed them over their depth and let
them make their way to the shore,
though you may be sure she stayed
close by. When we were seen the
old lady shrieked "TrampsI' in char
acteristic muskrat language and fled
to her sub-aquatic vestibule, l suppose
TO call the police.
The little ones did not attempt to
escape. Ostrichlike they hid their
| heads among the roots and left their
naked tails waving above the water
like new species of juncos waiting
to be examined. The madam could
not quite ignore the material instinct,
as she returned and conducted her
happy family to the nursery where
they received their first lesson in mis-
nthropy.-Forest and Stream. !

ONLY MADE MATTERS WORSE
Small Girls Efforts to "Fudge" on Un-
, fortunate Remark Could Not Be
Called Successful.

A number of women were discussing
Liberty bonds one afternoon in neigh
boris house. Almost unnoticed little
neighbor girl had entered. At this
point in the discussion she exclaimed:
"WeIl, my aunt says she might just
as well buy Liberty bond as to be
taxedI"
Her remark caused a good bit of
comment. One guest, who has son IN
the service, became very indignant,
and exclaimed:
1.-The idea! Buying a bond to es-
cane taxation! That's patriotism for
YOU! That makes me tired-anybody
as able as she is to buy bonds, or any
thing"
With that last remark the speaker
"few" out of the house.
The little girl, beholding the strife
and bad feeling she had stirred up,
tried to fudge" on her remark, eX-
planning that it wasn't her aunt who
made the remark, but some other wom-
an. The neighbor women held her to
her first remark, and were making 1t
pretty warm" for the little girl, when
she finally burst out with;
"Well, you don't know how much it
costs my aunt to live; and how much
its costs her to take that trip to Nj
agara Falls"
The laugh with which the women
greeted this innocent remark was suf-
ficient to send the loyal and innocent
girl running from the room. Truly, heI
places" that afternoon.

gians are like this. I had evidently
fallen into the hands of a gang who
were endeavoring to make capital out
of the misfortunes of those who were
referred to them for help. In all coun-
tries there are bad as well as good,
and in a country which has suffered SO
much as poor Belgium it is no wonder
if some of the survivors have lost theiP
sense of moral perspective.
l know that the average poor peas
ant in Belgium would divide his scanty
rations with a needy fugitive sooner
than a wealthy Belgian would dole
out a morsel from his comparatively
well-stocked larder. Perhaps the poor
have less to lose than the rich if their
generosity or charity is discovered by
the Huns.
There have been many Belgians shot
for helping escaped prisoners and other
fugitives, and it is not to be wondered
at that they are willing to take as few
chances as possible. A man with q
family, especially, does not feel jus.
titled in helping a stranger when he
knows that he and his whole family
may be shot OF sent to prison for their
pains.
Although 1 suffered much from the
attitude of Huyliger and his associates
I suppose l ought to hold no grudgI
against them in view of the unenviable
predicament in which they are il
| themselves.
