 Sometimes may prove to be your
 eAin. Black Pussy.
 That isn't nice to think of. is 1t? Hut some people don't mind thinking about 1t and are inclined to take ad- vantage of 1t. That is the way lot et people got along in the world taking advantage of the troubles of others.
 Black Pussy tho Cat isn't above tAis. Goodness, no. The moment sAe heard Sammy Jay begin to scream, she pricked up her ears. Then, when she heard ail the other birds in the Old Orchard adding their screams to 6ammy's, she got to her feet, yawned, stretched and then trotted in that soft footed way of hers over to where she could see what was going on. Almost right away she saw that the feathered folk were darting at something in the grass Black Pussy stole forward swiftly. Every few feet she would stop to look and listen. All the time she kept crouched as close to the ground e she could.
 II don't know what 1t is all about" though Black Pussy, but do know that those silly birds are 60 occupied that they are not keeping watch at all. The sound as if they were in trouble of some sort If they are, it will be all the easier for mo. I certainly ought to get good bird dinner out of this.'
 Now, it was true that the birds were % occupied that not one Of them had thought to look out for any other danger. They could think of nothing but Mir Blacksnake and no one had eyes for anything else. So 1t was that Black Pussy man. aged to creep very near.
 She was still puzzled as to what 1t was all about Then she saw Mir. Blacksnake lift his head and strike anGriiy at a bird who vas darting down at him. Aha said Black Russy, Tt is Mir. Blacksnake! ] wonder that he doesn't catch one of thoss birds. If had some of them as near as they are to him. would have one and have 1t quick"
 Perhaps Black Pussy was right. It did look as if some of those birds were possessed to get ae close aA they could 70 Mir. Blacksnake. He had partly coiled and the birds had gathered around. Every once in a while. one would dart down at him especially Sammy Jay-but poor Mrs. Welcome Robin seemed para lyxed. It was just as If she couldn't tear herself away. l suppose some folks would have said that she was charmed. She fluttered about as if she were helpless. Every instant Black Pussy expected to see Mir. Blacksnake seize her.
 But that charming was not real charming. Mrs. Welcome was not paralysed with fear. she was pre- tending. Although she looked to be within easy striking distance Of Mir. Blacksnake. she was really just a wee bit beyond sure striking dis tance. She was pretending to he helpless. Mir. Blacksnake knew 1t just as we'll as she did. She was trying 10 fool him. but he wasn't fooled. She was fooling Black Pussy. but she wasn't fooling Mir. Black snake. Not once did he try to catch her. Black Pussv couldn't under Qlaal t.
