MR.. FoxIS SURPRISED.

II did not matter to Mr.. Fox who
helped him 10 get living; in fact
u did not matter az all so long as he
could Use neiehbors TO get what be
wanted
lie did not know much about Mr..
Badger, for Mr. Badger is quiet

snd Mr.. Fox had never bothered 10 make
his acquaintance.
But just now Mr. Fox thought he
could use Mr.. Badger he had sharp
claws and was a quick digger-snd
Mr.. Fox wanted some field mice, SO
he called pleasantly TO Mr.. Badger
that u was a nice day.
MIR Badger does not like the day
light, but when Mir Fox asked him 70

Badger was out of sight, for he digs
fast. and this was, of course, Just
what Mr.. Fox expected and wanted
to happen.
As fast as the mice ran out OF the
ground Mr.. Fox caught them, but in
stead of putting them in his basket
he took good care that he got his
dinner, intending when he had eaten
enough to run away and leave Mr.
Badger still digging.
But Mr.. Badger is not 80 stupid as
he sometimes appears, and when after
awhile he thought the basket must be
full he came out to call to Mr.. Fox
and caught him eating his dinner.
"Oh. hor' said Mr.. Badger TO him.
self, so you are playing one of your
tricks on me, are you MIR. Fox-weil
we will see about that"
Under the ground went Mr. Badger
again, so quickly that Mr.. Fox who
was very busy, did not sec hun come
out or 90 back; then he began 10 dig
faster than ever and he worked straight
toward the place where Mr.. Fox wa:
sitting.
Pretty soon Mr.. Fox saw a spot
near him move, and thinking. nice

rol was trying to make new place
Of escape he watched until he saw
something poking through the ground,
Then he quickly reached in with
his paw, but he did not pull out q nous
instead he felt his paw held fast by
something that hurt very much. Mr.
Fox howled with pain and pulled will
all his strength, but he could not &c
away
What Mr.. Fox did not know abou
Mr.. Badger was that he has yer.
strong jaws which lock in grip from
which there is no escape unless Mr.
Badger chooses to open them.
Mr.. Badger held Mr.. Fox by tn
paw until he was sure he had hin
frightened, very much and then h
opened his mouth and let him 60.
