 Now Dicks room was in the gar ret and it was so full of rats and mlce that he could not sleep at night. One day when he was out on the street he saw a little girl playing with a cat, He asked her if she would sell her cat for a penny and she said that she would.
 Dick took 1t home with him and soon the gsrret was free from rats and mice. Every day Dick saved some of his food and carried 1t up 10 his pet. The cat became his best friend. the only real friend that he had.

USE MODERATION, ALWAYS

The secret of long life, enjoyed by ones self and valued by ones friends. is moderation, temperance and contentment.
 By this is meant moderation in contrast to the nervous life that never takes time to live; temperance in contrast to feasting, drinking, and sacrifice of sleep for the so-called social pleasures, and contentment in contrast to pessimistic philosophy that sees nothing but evil in life.
 Many who think they have chronic and perhaps incurable stomach trouble, find the trouble te vanish when the diet is simplifet.

He followed Mrs. Chippy with his
 mouth open.

starved He had no shame at all. Feathered folk who were watching would cry, Shame! shame!" but he had no shame. Little Mrs. Chippy had to leave the feeding of her own children wholly to Mir. Chippy. This shameless beggar was always right at hand whenever she found bit of food, and if she didn't give 1t to him made such a fuss that she would give 1t to him just to stop his cries.
 If the neighbors had talked before, it was nothing to the way they gos- siped now. They didn't hesitate to say just what hey thought, and 1t wasn't at all mplimenary to poor little Mrs. Chippy. Even those who had felt sorry for her when the shame less little beggar had been in the nest now said that she had no bisi- ness to be so imposed upon.
 That rascal is quite capable of taking care of himself,"' declared Mrs. scrapper the kingbird. I'm not a bit sorry for Mrs, Chippy. She ought to send him about his business. The idea of thinking that she must feed that great big shameless began because he runs around after her crying to be fed! He'll keep that up as long as she'll feed him. It's & dis grace to the Old Orchard"
 Tt is so," spoke up Welcome Robin. "1t certainly is a disgrace to the Old Orchard. I don't kn w what Mrs. Chippy is thinking of. Why she doesn't get rid of that youngster now I don't understand. He is imposing on her and has been for some time. I think 1t would be an excellent plan if we all got together and drove him out of the Old Orchard.
 He even hinted at this to little Mrs. Chippy, but she was so dis tressed at the idea and go upset that he said nothing more about 1t. You see. she had fed that shameless little began so long that by now she seemed to feel that it was quite all right, and actually sorry for him. Meanwhile her own four babies, hay. ing been well taken care of by Mr. Chippy, were beginning to look oht for themselves, In fact, they were becoming quite independent Tet they were no older than this yotlng son of Sally Sly's, and they were mol half his size. Whenever he came near they made fun of him. But he didn't mind this at all.
