After Puss left the little dwarf who
lived under the mountain and worked
all day making coats for tho little men
Of the wood, our little traveller came
to great Pumpkin in which lived Jack
o. Lantern. Now Jack o. Lantern was
little fairy who loved to poke fun at
everybody, especially after the sun went
down and the tail shadows made the
forest dark and gloomy.
he would come out of bis Pumpkin
House and make the most dreadful faces
at travellers who were out late, and this
would send them scurrying home with
frightened tales Of a little dwarf with
eyes Of FIRE and a mouth of fame.
And when Puss came across Jack o.
Lantern 1t was just as dusk, and when
lie saw Jack o. lanterns fiery face he
drew his sworn and said
Don't come too near me, or will
burn you with my flaming gold feathers"
and he took off bis cap and pointed the
magic plume at the naughty fairy.
"Ha. hat" he laughed .I'm not afraid
Of feather. even IL IL does look like
a fame" and he came quite close to
puss. But when he felt the heat of Puss
Juniors feather he stepped back, fol-
his hair would have been singed If he
hadn't
Lets be friends" he said. "You come
back to my Pumpkin House and tell me
story about yonr adventures, and
VIII give you piece OF pumpkin pie"
So Puss followed the little fellow. and
when they We're inside the Pumpkin
House, Jack o'Lantern drew up a chair
fer Puss, and then he sat down on
stool and waited for our little traveller to
relate an adventure. But Just as Puss
