"A Splendid Feast"

No m knew just why. But the best
of friends they were.
And so they lived together in their
zoo home as they had always been to-
gether since they had first seer each
other.
How happy they were together, too!
Only 1t puzzled people to see the sapa-
1ou and the dog in a little zoo home
side by side.
The sapajou was much interested in
the visitors and sat up close so he
could see them all and his little eyes
looked so amused and as though he
were enjoying himself so much.
He grinned at the keeper every time
the keeper went by and the keeper
would speak to him and the sapajou
would look much pleased.
The s%triped-tailed dog, too, had come
from South America. And as the
sapajou watched the people he said
to himself, "This is a wonderful show
seeing all the people pass along.
And gracious me, how many chill.
dren there are! Well, l must say 1
find grown-ups and children very
amusing to watch. Yes, they cheer
me up-altogether l really am always
very cheerful. But they make me feel
so jolly and so amused"
Now, while all these animals we're
enjoying themselves in their various
ways the four yellow-haired porcu.
pines were having a party.
And they were not paying a scrap
OF attention TO the visitors. They sat
In a circle with their backs turned
to the people.
In the very center of the circle was
a little baby porcupine. And a more
cunning little creature you never could
see, I'm sure!
He was very Small-not so very
much bigger than a guinea pig and yet
his parents were such enormously big
porcupines.
All OF the four %porcuplnes were very,
very large.
The little one was sitting up too,
Just the way they all did and he was
nibbling at lettuce and carrots and
eating very grown-up food for a little
fellow only two weeks old.
For that was all he was. His par
ents had been born in Alaska and his
uncle and aunt had been born in the
United States but he had been born
IN the zoo and he found it was very
nice.
A little porcupine Is like q little
guinea pig in the way 1t can eat any
thing right away.
There was a splendid feast for the
porcupines and some of them were
finishing of with a dessert Of bread
which many Of the animals like as a
dessert.
Oh, yes, 1t was a real p~orcupine
party but the one who felt like the |
guest of honor was the dear little
baby %porcupine with his funny little
black body and his poor little at
at quilts.
But some day he would have enor.
nous ones like his parents. In the
meantime 1t was enough to eat and
eat and enjoy life. And the people

The white-nosed coati-mundi from

He had had a nice dinner and was

And 1t was nice to be a great pet.
Oh yes, that was particularly nice.
The striped tailed dog and the white

The sapajou had had his dinner and
he had had a little meat, for he was
