KITTY-CAT TOWN.

Old Gray Rat was n wise old fellow,
but he made one mistake in his old age
He moved from an old barn where there
were no cats, and no food. either, to q
nice new barn that was filled with grain,
but where there were two big cats
As soon as Old Gray Rat had been
there one day he knew he had made a
serious mistake, but he did not wish TO
return to the empty barn, nor did he wish
to he eaten by the big pussies.
All one day he spent thinking while his
family was asleep, and that night instead of
going out, he called his family all about
him and in very low whispers he told
them his plan.
That night when the two big p,lssics -
Tom and Tim came to the barn they
were surprised to hear talking, so in
stead of watching they began to listen.

his family under the barn floor, "every-
