story is aimed to make fun of lust
such persons.
When DR.. johnson courtcd Mrs

he o her that he was OF mean ex-

that he had had an uncle hanged. The
lady by way OF reducing herself to

that h had no more money than
himself. and that, though she had not
had a relation hanged. she had fifty

she asked. breaking off, for she did
not see him, and Master Curly was al
ways getting in mischief They heard
a funny little squeak from above and
there, on an upper shelf, was Curly
laughing down at them.
Come down at once" said Mother
Gray, DO you hear; at once!"
AS she spoke. he gave a frightened
squeak and disappeared
Up jumped Mother Gray to the high
shelf, as fast as she could, and there
she found poor little Curly, sliding
fast down the handle of a big dipper
that the cook had left in a large bowl
of cream!
Quick. quicki Hold my tail" h
cried. as she turned round and let her
long tail fall in the cream. He caught
at it, but missed; the second time he
managed TO set hold Of it. and be-
tween mat and the handle of the
dipper, managed to scramble from his
dangerous bath.
AS soon as he was safe, poor Mother
Gray fell on the floor, all the little
mice around her. frightened to death.

sure.
All the little mice crept through the

all the tit-bits through to them, and
then went through herself.
After they were all safely in the

them long to get home again. OF

"HILDREN," said Mrs. Mousie
~ Gray. one fine day, II have a
~ Agreat treat in store for you.
~ Your cousins. the Browns, are
coming to spend the day tomorrow,
and I am going to tax you all on a
shopping trip"
"Oh, mother, how nice" cried all
the little mice together.
The Browns. en-" said Father Gray.
Quite a lot of them. isn't there?"
Yes, about nine altogether. for
they are all coming" replied Mother
Gray. THAT is reason why I am
taking the children shopping, for
everyone must carry something home,
SO that we may be- sure to have
enough, for we shall be a large party"
For I must tell you that when mice
go shopping they don't buy their
food. but jus. help themselves to
whatever they want, and in Mouse
land that is not considered wrong.
So as soon as the nous was in or
der they all started out, the four little
ones following Mother Gray, and Fuz-
". h youngest, holding fast to her
tail.
For a long while their way was very
dark, but at last a tiny point of light
