A SHOPPING EXPEDITION.
CHAPTER XXXYII.

CHAPTER XXNVII.
AS I dressed to go out to look
for the baby carriage, l couldn't
help a little guilty feeling which
crep- IL, although l assured myself
| was Going nothing wrong. But
when Helen came for me and
brought a dainty blue carriage rug,
! forget everything but how sweet
my darling baby would look snug
gled down in it.
you'll spoil both me and the
baby!" l told Helen, as / admired
the dainty gift.
What if l do?" she laughed
1--WE no baby of my own so I
have made up my mind to adopt
yours"
BE sure it's legal" I returned,
and 50 chatting and laughing We
started out.
The wholesale house was down
on Canal street, an uneXplored re-
gion to me. l was so interested in
everything Helen told me; how
her mother was born in Ann
street and an uncle had lived in
John street; both now given en-
tirely over to dingy loft buildings
But when we reached the furni-
ture house and l saw the rows
upon rows of baby carriages |
forgot all else in the delight of
choosing. Helen's friend was very
affable. and told me not to hurry,
to take all the time 1 wished for
the selection. Finally / decided up
on the one l liked, and after say
ing so, thought to ask the price.
twenty-five dollars to you!" he
replied smilingly.
An Expensive Purchase.
"Thats wholesale price, you
know Sue" Helen interposed. Per-
haps she had seen the surprise l
could not help but show. / do not
know what | expected to pay for
such a wonderful carriage, but
certainly not twenty-five dollars.
'There are cheaper ones" the
man whom Helen had introduced
as Mr.. Barnes" said,
but none so pretty as this one"
] declared. What do you think,
Helen?" l asked
81 think you have shown good
taste as usual" she replied, and if
you have decided upon that one,
we will take no more of Mr..
Barnes time. Give him your ad-
dress dear, so he can send it up"

asked the bunny uncle, as he
stopped and looked around.
dPull your ears? Why, no! The
very idea! Can you imagined"
Heated Dottie Flufftail, for it was
the little lamb girl who had called
to the longeared rabbit gentleman.
81 have my new Christmas sled
Uncle WIggily," went on Dottie,
land as l see you limping a little
from rheumatism, thought you'd
like me to pull you over the
snow"
"Why, that is very kind of you, "
said the rabbit gentleman. But
l think it would be better If /
pulled you"
ut would be more fun, any
howl" laughed Dottie. put can
your
ooh, yes" answered Uncle Wig
gily, as he rubbed a little snow on
his pink nose, so it would twinkle
more brightly mean so his
nose would twinkle. My rheuma-
tism doesn't hurt so much but
what can pull you" the bunny
went on.
So Dottie, the little girl lamb,
sat on her new Christmas sled,
and Uncle Wiggily began pulling
her across thes now. The sun was
shining brightly, and it was not
at all cold. In fact 1t was SO
warm that the sun had melted the
snow in some places. And where
the ground was bare Uncle Wig
gily had to tug hard to pull Dottie
on her sled.
ooh. let's go to the hill and
slide down." suddenly bleated the
little girl lamb. You can get on
the sled, too, Uncle Wiggily, when
we reach the hill. And you can
coast down with me-"
That will be fine" spoke Mr.,
Longears. So he hoped along,
pulling Dottie on her sled, until
they came to the top of the hill.
But, oh, dear me! AS Dottie
looked down the alope, where she
had thought to see a nice lot OF
coasting snow, there were many
brown, bare patches of earth. The
sun had melted the snow all off
except in a few spots.
Isn't this too bad" sighed
DOttle. Now we can nave amy
coasting, Uncle Wiggily."
mo, l don't see how you can"
agreed the bunny. "You can't
coast on hill unless it is covered
with snow. And, even if there
are few snow patches, we would
stick fast every time we came to a
place where the bare, brown
ground shows"
"Oh, but what can we do?" ask
ed Dottie, who was much disap-
pointed. 81 did so want a coast,

"The Real Irish Question"

The Irish question never will be
understood so long as the world
persists in regarding it as u
struggle between England and Ire
land. To begin with, Scotland is
as much committed to that struggle
as is England, but for some mys-
terious reason the north of Great
Britain is always left out of the
question. The truth is that the
difficulty in the Irish situation lies
in the fact, which dates back
throughout the history of the is
land, that it is struggle between
Irishmen themselves. If it were
not for what is known as the
North and South, Great Britain
would today have no difficulty in
solving the Irish problem. Even
if it were a struggle purely and
simply between the north and the
south, the difficulty would not
seem so insuperable.~~~' The real
crux lies in the fact that it is a
religious struggle between the
Protestant and the Roman Catho-
lie. Tremendous efforts have been
made of late to pretend that this
is not the case, but anybody who
will look little deeper than mere
political differences will discover
that only some such vital matter
as religion could perpetuate. the
animosities of the two divisions.
Once upon time here was the
same bitterness between the north
ana south of Great Britain. The
Scots were no more fond of the
English or the English of the
| Scots than are the Roman Catholic
Irish of the English today. And,
I indeed, the mere fact that it can
not be said that the English and
the Irish are antagOnistic, but
that reservation has to be made
and Roman Catholic Irish substi-
tuted for Irish, is a distinct proof
that the difference is q religious
one and not national one.
Less than two centuries ago the
Scots, under the Young Pretender
invaded England and marched tri'
umphantly as far south as Derby
There they were checked, driver
back into Scotland, and decisivelJ
defeated at Culloden. That was
in the AS. Yet, in few years
Pitt was to raise the first High
land regiments for the natlona
service, with the result that little
by little the old enmity died GU

but the stove is smoking dread
fully. / think a brick must have
fallen down inside the chimney
and stopped it up. / can't make

'I'll get the step ladder and take
look at the chimney" offered the
bunny uncle. Let the fire alone
for a while, Nurse Jane. Go in
the parlor and let the smoke blow
out of your eyes. I'll get up on the
roof and fix the chimney"
do you think you CAM" asked
the muskrat lady.
I'm do my best" spoke the bun
ny, bravely.
A little later he was climbing up
on the roof of his bungalow, using
a ladder to get there. The roof
was not very high, so Uncle Wig
gily was not afraid Of falling.
Now / must look down the
chimney to see IL / can find the
brick, or whatever has fallen in
to stop up the flue," said the bum

and an old cap, 80 he didn't mind
sticking his head way down the
chimney. But this time the fire
had gone out, SO it wasn't hot and
no more smoke came up.
"Well | can't see anything
there" said Uncle Wiggily to him
self, as he drew his head out of
the top of the chimney. "Pll get
a long stick and poke it down"
But about this time along came
the old Fuzzy Fox, looking for the
bunny rabbit. The Fox saw Nurse
Jane, with her head out of the par
lor window to clear her eyes, nose
and mouth of smoke.
where's Uncle Wiggily?" asked
the Fox, not even bothering to say
"if you please" He was impolite
was that Fox.
"Uncle Wiggily is on the roof!
answered Nurse Jane, before she
thought.
"Ha! Just where / want him!
He can't get away from me vi
there!" growled the Fox, and VI
the ladder he went after the bunny
gentleman.
Uncle Wiggily was just coming
down to get the long pole, but
when he saw the Fox the bunny
stopped
"Oh!" said Uncle Wiggily.
ooh, ho!" marked the Fox. Now
you can't get away from me. and
I'm going to nibble your ears!'
Uncle Wiggily looked all around
There was no way of escape. He
dared not jump off the roof, and
the Fox stood between him and
the ladder. Then the bunny though
of a trick.
Before you nibble my ears" pc
litely said Uncle Wiggily, "wiIl yot
please look down my chimney ant
see if you can see the brick tina
, has fallen in, stopping it up? Yol

Indeed l have, and sharper

over the roof and up to tn
chimney marched the Fox. TIL
Fox stuck his head down as Uncl
Wiggily had done.

said in a muffled voice.
"Oh, look down a bit farther!
cried Uncle Wiggily. And will
that he gave the Fox such shove
boosting the bad chap up by hi
hind legs, that the Fox was pushet
half way down the chimney, ant
there he stuck!
"Now / guess you won't nib

Down they went on the
roller skate sled.

Uncle Wiggily, and I wanted you
to have a ride on my Christmas
sled!"
Uncle Wiggily twinkled his pink
nose again.
"Hah! l have an ideaw spoke
the bunny uncle. "Have you pair
of old roller skates at home, Dot
tie?"
Eyes, but 1 don't see how roller
skates are going to help us slide
down hill when there isn't any
snow" bleated Dottie.
'Well, you run and get your old
roller skates, and I'll show you"
said Uncle Wiggily.
So off trotted Dottie, and when
skates out of the closet, her broth
er Willie saw her and asked:
what you going to do? You
can't roller skate now!"
TN not going to-" Dottie an
swered. But Uncle Wiggily is go

| "You can't do that, either!"
! bleated Willie. 1.-THE sun has

well. you come and see what
Uncle Wiggily is going to do" in
vited DOttie.
SO the two lamb children, with
| their big, fluffy tails, ran back
with the roller skates to where
Uncle Wiggily waited at the top
of the bare hill with Dottie's sled.
ooh, so Willie wants to coast,
too; does he?" asked the bunny.
"How you going to coast on a
bare hill?" the little lamb boy
wanted to know.
"Why, this way" answered I'm
| Gle Wiggily. Then. on the runners
Of Dottie's sled, he fastened the
wheels from the old roller skates
"The wheels will roll over the
bare ground, and even over the
snow, just like an express wagon.
Get on. Dottie and Willie!" said
the bunny.
So the lamb children sat on tbs
sled with Uncle Wiggily, anc
down they went on the roller

ed down for the forty-eleventh
