Well. one day a new family moved
in next door and they had a little
boy about Carries age, named Ralph.
Carrie and Alice and big brother Tom
went to the window to peep at the
new people moving In. Then they saw
Ralph with bird cage, sitting in the
wagon and what did the little boy do
but throw the cage out on the lawn.
There was a parrot in the cage and
how the poor creature did yell! 1t
made the moving men laugh so then
Ralph began to stand on his head
and shout and prance and sing silly
songs he had learned somewhere or
other-nobody knew where.
How queer that boy acts!" ex-
claimed Alice.
Soon Carrie got acquainted with
Ralph but she did not like him a bit

Side A can advance to line B and
side d to line c, but must go no
farther. Anyone stepping beyond
lines B or c forfeits The game for his
side. The object OF the game is for
side A to advance to line B and drive
side d back of line D or vice versa.
OF course, the side whose fighters are
wet the most loses the battle.

n nee upon a time there lived q
IiveIy young fox named Wicks.
He was the youngest in the fam
W lily and rather spoiled and he
thought he was very sly and cunning
indeed and quite able to take care oil
himself.
one day as he was trotting along
he saw a cute little animal about MS
own age playing a hopping game by
himself in a little dell where wild
raspberries and thimbleberries grew
as thick as hasty pudding. Wicks
stopped and watched with interest and
after awhile he sided up and asked If
he might play too.

I'm Bunny Bob" said the other lit
tie animal. land 1 amt betting my

ia like to see you jump higher than

Well, there was not much harm In
that. and they played together all
the afternoon. Towards evening when
they were playing hide and seek
wick's big brother Vickes came to
look for him. Now Vicks was taller
and broader and older than wicks. but
bunny BOD WAS 1OOliSAA AilIlS AdOOAN
and very young, besides he was so In
terested in the game he never noticed
the difference. So when he spied
Vicks standing by an elderberry bush,
he jumped out and cried: 81 see
you"
Vicks thought It a rather queer
performance. but he wasn't going TO
quarrel with his supper. for he knew
rabbits quite well. and liked them
but not in a pleasant wayi Quick as
a fash he bounced on poor Bunny
Bob slung him over his shoulder and
bounded for home.
This was easy" thought Vicks.
what poor stupid things rabbits are!"
When he reached home. he found
that his mother and father had gone
out to look for Wicks too, so he went
inside and put the pot on.
I'm glad you did see me-" he said
to poor Bunny Bob in a hooking
voice. Now I'm going to get supper
for Mother"
What a good kind son you are!"
replied Bunny Bob. admiringly. I'm

Then he ran off to find Vicks, who
was crouching in the ferns waiting.
In a moment out ran Vicks and
seized the bag eagerly. his mouth wa

Consumption cured forever!
When Wicks felt himself being car
ried off he thought: well, it was a
trick!" A1d he began to struggle and
scream as hard as he could. but Vicks
held on tight and thought: What a
fat and lively prize!"
On reaching home he found Mr..
and Mrs. Tricks, his parents. waiting
anxiously for him Oh. had he seen

IN ID you ever see a little boy or
little girl who liked to show off?
Carrie was that kind. She was
~ always showing off, and really 1
think sometimes people thought she
was a nuisance. Once when her big
sister Alice was entertaining some
friends up in her room and heard
Carrie coming, she locked the door.
What do you think of that? Carrie
wondered why too, and she knocked
and banged and shouted, "Open this
door," for quite a while. But it was
no use. Alice and her friends paid
no attention. Carrie used to go down
into the parlor when there was COM
pany and show off like anything. She
would talk all the time and interrupt
and climb up on peoples laps and
ask silly questions. Even on the
street she would strike attitudes with
her head on one side and walk like
person with a wooden leg. She did

Carrie glggled and snickered and
thought Ralph's behavior was rather
funny.
One day Ralph came to the door
and asked Carrie to play with him.
There was a swing at the very end
of the big lawn rigSt nea- the road.
Ralph let Carrie sit down while he
stood over her and pumped the swing.
They began to swing very high and
Carrie cried:

But Ralph wouldn't stop. Up. up

down, down. Carrie got quite dizzy
and had to close her eyes. She
screamed and screamed because the
rope was cutting her hands and she
was afraid she would not be able to
hold Oh much longer. That is why
she did not see two men in a buggy
draw up and watch.
One of the men had a long black
sweeping mustache and the other had
long eyebrows which gave him a
fierce expression. Ralph saw them
watching and that was why he kept
swinging so high. He wanted to show
off-as usual! He stood on one foot
while the swing was away up and
