PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
BY David Corv.

Well, after the parrot stopped singing
the song which you read in the last
story, Puss said goodbye to the inn
keeper and went upon his Journey. And
as the ground was covered with snow, II
was no easy thing to make his way, and
after while he turned into the woods,
where the snow was not so deep.
And as he tramped along he came
across a little girl with a basket on her
arm, and she was crying bitterly, FOR
she was cold and unhappy. Aud the rea-
son she was so miserable was because
her cruel stepmother had sent her out IN
the cold to gather strawberries In the
woods, and who can gather strawberries
in the winter time, l should Ike to
know.
Come with me-" said Puss kindly.
and be took a little cloak out OF his
knapsack and put it around her shout
ders, and then they both set OF as fast
as they could, for the wind was very
cold. And by and by they came to a
little house made OF logs, and at the
window they could see a little mans face
peering through the s'1ss. So Puss
knocked on the door aud voice an
swered:
who stands outside my door. I pray
II he's no friend, then go away.
But II he be a friend in need,
Then to his pleading III give heed
Then Puss replied
This little maid is sore afraid,
And Of an anxious mind,
Because no wild strawberries grow
Beneath the winter wind"
And then the little man opened the
door and let them In. And when they
entered they saw two other little men,
and one was busy trying 20 bake bread
and the other was busy trying to sew
button on his coat. But the broad
wouldn't bake and rne little button fell
20 the floor and rolled into a crack. and
the little man couldn't Hnd II. although
he lighted a candle and got down on his
hands and knees.
Il will bake your bread and sew the
button on your coat said the little girl,
and she did 1t so neatly that the two lit
tie men smiled. and then the little man
who had let them in said You are
good girl. Take this broom and sweep
the snow from the back OF the house"
And what do you suppose she found?

Why. a lot Of wild Strawberries growing
ripe and red.
So she ran into the house and told the
little men what she had found. Take
your basket and fill 1t with the berries -
they said, Nnd when 1t was fun they tod
her to take 1t home to her stepmother.
But little Puss Junior, who was a wise
little cat, said to her: III your step
mother Is so cruel, would II not be bet

SO the little girl put her hand In Puss
Juniors paw and together they set out,
