THE CURE


BY Riley Ryck
Down to the store the other day
Fred Perkins says, says he,
This country needs some brand new
laws
The way it looks to me-
Some other fellers took it up
Like they most always do
And threshed this nations problems
out
Complete fore they got through.
New laws they had fer this and that,
Reforms of every natur'.
Surprises me how some folks stays
Out NV the legislator"
Says old Eph Watkins, sittin' there
Behind the other men.
Nobody said a word to that
So he went on again,
Nov, mind you, l don't claim to be
No Jestice O the Peace,
But pears to me what we need most
Is jes' some elbow grease.
When none comes so easy-like,
First thing we know. we shirk:
The thing to Ire this country's ills
Is plain, old fashioned work!
Let's pillow our fields and SOW our
crops
And keep on sawin' wood,
/ reckon that would be the way
To do our country good
Well, Fred grinned kind O. sheepish like
And says. THAT'S one on me,
| guess I've got enough to do,
Old Eph is right says he.

The twins told Mother Bear all
about how they had found that ugly
looking Snake in the path and how
fiercely he had hissed at them. II
am sure it was Copperhead of the
poison people, for he had the broad
est, f1attest head and a patchy coat"
explained Boxer. I'VE took care to
keep beyond his reach"
Did he have a turned-up nose?'
asked Mother Bear.
"I-I-I don't know" confessed
you. woof-woof?"
Woof-Woof shook her head. No"
said she. but he had terrible hiss
I'm sure he was Copperhead."
Mother Bear chuckled. And I'm
sure he was a perfectly harmless fell
she. He probably has been laughing
to himself ever since at the way in
which he fooled two little Bears. He
is the greatest pretender of whom
know. and that is why he has been
named Buffer. A buffer. you know.

turns up you will know for sure that
you have met Buffer the Adder. and
that no matter what he does. there is
nothing to fear from him: Some
folks call him the Hognosed Snake. 1
am told. I hope you'll never give
him another chance to laugh at you"
The twins were quite upset by this,
especially Boxer. who, IS you remem-
Der. had boasted that he wouldn't be
laughed at by any harmless Snakes
because Of fear of them.
That fellow will never blun me
again." declared Boxer. and growled
angrily way down in his throat.
"Don't be too sure" warned Mother
Bear, and there was a twinkle in her
eyes.
1t was the very next day that the
cubs ran across Buffer again. He
heard them coming and hastily looked
for a place to hide. There was none

discover him.

at him long and hard. There wasn't

whispered Woof-Woof. Mother Bear
was right, and it was Buffer the .Ad-
der instead of Copperhead of the poi
son people. What do you suppose
has happened to him."
Boxer had walked boldly right UP
to Buffer. He put out a paw and
touched him. Buffer didn't move,
He's dead" declared Boxer. Some
thing or somebody has killed him.
Now we'll never be able to get even
with him. He's as dead as that old
stick beside him" Boxer poked and
pulled Buffer about, and not the
smallest sign of life was there about
him. Il wonder if he is good to eat?"
said Boxer.

So the two little Bears went to look
for Mother Bear. No sooner were
they out of sight than Buffer rolled
over. and, srinning all the way,
crawled to a safe hiding place.
