r SAW the cutcst little white
j "Scotty.' Yesterday morning in
Miss Anne Knights window on Chest.
mt street. He had just had n bath and
decided he wanted bit of green to get
himself some vitamincs I SUPPOSE, for
as I passed there about half after .
o'clock he was walking on top OF the
window box neatly nipping of the tiny
green leaves Of fern. and what is
more I don't think he was discovered
very soon, for in the early afternoon
I was talking to my friend the wee bird
and it said, II saw the cutcst white
Scotty in the window Of that big brown
stone house on Chestnut street above
Sixteenth. He was sitting in the win.
dow looking nt every ono who passed. "
And that was about o'clock. hope
there was some of the fern left by
that time. for Scotty was very busily
nipping when ] spied him.

entire rest Of that block with the ex
ception Of the Reeds house. on the cor
ncr Of Sixteenth and Chestnut streets,
IL occupied by business houses and
shops. But Miss knights house is Il
large double mansion Of brownstone and
has the most beautiful garden at the side
and back. 1t has those lovely old
fashioned Slated window shades. Miss
Knight is sister Of Mr.. Edward
knight and an aunt Of Claire Knight.
whose first husband was Sidney Col.

- among the various phrases in the
petition mother is teaching him are
the words ~ am heartily sorry for my
sins Whether Bobby is more honest
than the rest of us who do not ulwAys
feel sorry enough. and always believes
IN saying literally how he feels or not,
y hard to tell. but what hc says is.
I'm partly sorry for my sins" ana
