Boxer Gets His Own Break
fast.
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.
He first tastes independence who
Waits on himself as others do.


1t seemed to Boxer. the lost little
Bear, that that dreadful night would
last forever: that it never would end
OF course, it didn't last any longer
than a night at that season of the
year usually does. and it wasn't
dreadful at all. The truth is it was
an unusually fine night, and every
body but Boxer and anxious Mother
Bear thought so.
Perhaps you can guess just how
glad Boxer was to see the jolly Lit
tie Sunbeams chase the Black Shad-
ows out of the Green Forest the next
morning. He still felt frightened and
very. very lonesome, but things look
ed very different by daylight and he
felt very much braver and bolder.
First of all. he took nap. All
night he had been awake, for he had
been too frightened to sleep. That
nap did him world of good. When
he awoke he felt quite like another
Bear. And the first thing he thought
of was breakfast.
Now, always before Mother Bear
had furnished Boxer with his break
fast and with all his other meals.
But there was no Mother Bear to do
it this morning, and his stomach was
very empty. If anything was to be
put in it he was the one VINO Would
have to put it there.
Just thinking of breakfast made
Boxer hungrier than ever. He
couldn't lie still. He must have some
thing to eat and he must have 1t soon.
He crawled out from under the pile
of brush. shook himself and tried to
decide where to go in search of
breakfast. But being lost, of course,
he had no idea which way to turn.
Il guess it doesn't make much dif-
ference" grumbled Boxer. which
ever way | go I guess I'll find some
thing to eat if l keep going long
enough" So Boxer started out. And
because he had something on ms
mind. something to do. he forgot that
he was lonesome and he forgot TO De
