and said smilingly, mo. not grapes

Il, of course, cannot climb, but you
are such an expert that il will be no
trouble for you to run up and pick
some for me-"
Mr.. Coon, being good-natured fel-
low, said he would, and thinking also
that he might find a nest of bees or
wasps at the same time, for though he
did not mind eating cherries he was
very fond of the other things.
He threw down the cherries, and
when Mr.. Fox had enough he decided
that he would punish Mr.. Coon for
mentioning those sour grapes.
The fact that Mr.. Coon had been
obliging and picked the cherries for
him did not matter at all to ungrateful
Mr.. Fox.
He saw a limb that was very slender
and al the end hung two very large
red cherries. BY asking Mr.. Coon TO
get those cherries he was sure he
would fall 10 the ground, for the
limb would be certain to snap.
Under the tree was big fat stone,
and while Mr.. Coon wears a thick
coat, if he struck on a rock he would
be sure TO feel il, and then he will
know how it hurts me when he men

himself, for when ne lands will jusr
mention the fact to him before ruT

Mr.. Fox pointed to the big cherries
but what he did not see was a nest o.
wasps just over them. Mr.. Coon did
however, and he. had no intention o
picking the cherries. It was the nes

they went.

In the latter connection It is in

sandal. In the early part Of the six
teenth century large holes were
punched in the undressed hide OF

1 have received letter from a man
old. He has been married for nearly
forty years and has children and
grandchildren. He has been success
ful in business, and amassed a COM
Portable fortune, and has led a re-
spectacle, God-fearing life, and is a
pillar in the community in which he
lives.
But now he has fallen in love with
a girl in her twenties, and he wants
to divorce his wife and marry her.
No-there's not thing the matter
with his wife. She's as good a woman
as ever lived, and she worked shoul-
der 10 shoulder with him during all
the years that they were getting a
start in life. and of course he will
provide well for her financially. The
trouble is that she's en- old woman at
sixty, done with romance. while at
sixty-four he feels himself a young

for his believing that she loves him

Such things don't happen in real life
Old bones don't suddenly get reju
