 He can see light from dark, but he hasn't much to boast of in the way of eyesight or eyes.
 "Some-of us are fond of living In the forests, others by streams, others again by fields. We're not in the least fussy.
 We burrow in the ground and have fine runways where we go from place to place.
 Our homes are beautiful with a number of rooms papered and car peted by soft grass and leaves.
 "We eat more in a day than we weigh. That Is If anyone weighed the amount of food we ate in a day they would find that we were much smaller in size than the quantity of food we had eaten
 But 1t doesn't hurt us for we are so active, always so busy. We do not even rest and sleep In the winter the way some creatures do.
 That Is, I mean we do not go to sleep for the winter.
 We have very keen sense of hear ing. "Oh, yes, we can hear very well.
 But I must say I have no use for creatures who eat all the time and who are lazy. We must eat lot in order to have the strength to do so much.
 And we must do a lot in order to be able to eat a lotl I don't like to hear of creatures who eat and eat and eat and who then feel too lazy to do anything. That Is dreadful.
 "We can protect ourselves by our bravery and also by our musk glands which have a curious odor to them which the other animals do not like, we are thankful to say.
 "We can squeak and cry and we can become very angry. But we're not dreadful little creatures at all, and do wish people would hear that we are not"
 Perhaps they wtll," said Mir Short Tailed Shrew. And perhaps the next time they see a little dark animal which looks something like a mole they will say:
 "'There Is a nice short-tailed shrew. We will not harm him."
 "Oh, that would be pleasant indeed" said Mrs Short-Tailed Shrew. Well, I believe we have talked enough. I have plenty to do and then I don't bother much about being sociabIe and talking my time away"
 Neither do l." said Mir. Short Tailed Shrew as he wiggled his snout, which was his way of saying a polite good-by to Mrs. Short-Tailed Shrew.
