If we will divide both words into

What do we see? Three things are
now apparent: 1. Deteriorate has
five syllables, not four, and deterio-

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Happy Jack and Chatterer set
tied their quarrel by not speaking
when they met. In fact, they pre-
tended not to see each other. Also
both Of them pretended to be very
angry with Sammy Jay because OF
his decision. Right down In their
hearts they knew that 1t had been
very wise decision indeed. So
it was that peace once more reigned
in the Green Forest and the Old
Orchard.
Now that cold weather had come
In earnest Happy Jack was very
glad of the supplies stored away.
You see, q hard crust had formed
over the snow, and 30 1t WIS quite
impossible to dig down and look for
the nuts he had hidden under the
leaves on the ground. But for the
food in his storehouse and the good
things Farmer Browns boy put up
for him, Happy Jack would have
been likely to have hard time. As
it was he was sleek and fat.
It happened one morning that
Just after he had finished his break
fast whom should he meet but Bob
White the Quail. Bob was picking
at the tops of some weeds that
showed above the snow crust along
the old stone wall on the edge of
the Old Orchard. Hello, Happy
Jack!" said he.
Hello, yourself" replied Happy
Jack. Fine weather, isn't it?"
1T may be fine for those who are
not hungry, but for those who sell
dom know what a full stomach
means it isn't fine at all"
"Ho!" cried Happy Jack. IT be-
Neve you are complaining, Bob White.
I didn't suppose you ever did any,
thing like that. What's the weather
got to do with an empty stomach?"
Everything" replied Bob White
promptly, and shivered as he spoke.
"You people who have food stored
up are lucky. All I've had to eat
for three days is what I could pick
out of these weed tops, and mighty
poor picking it is! I know where
there are plenty of seeds If only I
could get at them, but they are
down under the crust, so what can
q poor fellow do but starve and
shiver? If this keeps up much long
er I'll be a goner as sure as the
world" Once more Bob White shiv-
cred until all his pretty brown and
white feathers shook.
Gould you eat some hickory nuts
II I should bring them to your"
asked Happy Jack suddenly.
Bob White shook his head sorrow
fully and went on picking at the
weed tops, getting a seed here and
a seed there, just enough to keep
him alive.
