I tell you why he’s sitting there,
Like a real grown person in a chair?
This is Pat, and he’s Mike Murphy’s friend—
You’ll think so too, when we reach the end.
Twas daytime, but Mike was sound asleep,
For at work all night he’d had to keep:
So he did not know when his house caught fire,
Nor see the flames mount high and higher.
Such smoke and flames! Pat saw it all:
First, with a bark, he tried to call.
Mike wouldn’t wake! So Pat looked ’round,
To a window high above the ground.
He climbed od a roof of a shed near by—
He knew his good master must wake or die;
Through the window he jumped, as quick as thought,
And as quick, by the arm his master caught!
And he shook, and shook, with all his might,
Till at last, Mike Murphy awoke in fright;
Then up he jumped, and quickly turned
To the room in which the fire burned.
To the well he ran and the water pumped,
While Pat looked on and frisked and jumped.
The dog was glad, and old Mike’s breath
Came fast as he said: “I was nigh to death!”

I
AM going to tell you about a toot ball
game. The game was played in Mill
Valley. The two teams that played were
the Spartans and the Smilers.
The game started at two thirty in the
afternoon. Lur.quist made a nice kick.
Dougherty got the ball and started to run.
“Get him, Brown!” was heard from all
over the field. He did get him, too, for he
made a nice tackle.
Bugg, playing center for the Smilers,
jjassed the ball to Barber. He tried to get

through, but could not; he tried tw:ce
more, but still failed.
“Three downs; Spartans’ ball,” said the
umpire.
Lockwood, playing center for the Spar
tans, passed the ball to Brown. They gain
ed their yards, and bad three more downs
in which to gain the goal. They made the
goal the next time.
“Gained the goal,’’ said the umpire,
Spartans win, sto 0.” The Smilers were
very sorry because they lost.

Autobiography of a
By William Gillkspie.
DF a detk could only talk it would sure
ly tell some of its sad tales. So I will
speak briefly tor one:
I was once a nice green tree growing in
a thick forest with many companion
around me. Late ore day two men came
up in a buggy and stopped in front of us;
they got out of the buggy and brought two
axes with them. They looked around and,
spying me and my companions, cut us
down. We had to sty good-bye to cur
other companions who were still standing
so straight, with fresh green leaves spread
over their trunks and branches.
The next day the same men came in a
great wagon and loaded me and my com
panions on it; we were carried many miles
when we came to a city, but that was not
the end of the journey. We went still
further until we came to a great yard
where there were many piles ot lumber.
The men drove into the yard and unload
ed us. It was dark a: d I soon fell asleep,
dreaming of my joyous days in the wide
green forest, and ot my dear companions.
I was awakened in the morning by some
men cutting my pretty green leaves from
my branches. I did not like this, but had
to stand it. I was then pulled across the
yard to a shop, where there were many
buzzir g things which sounded like myriad
wild bees. I soon found cut what these
things were, for I was put on a long bench
with one of these whirling, buzzing things
at the end. A man came up and laid me
acrots the bench close up to the funny
thing which he spoke of as a “saw.” I
was pushed up against it, and it sawed me
in two. But this was not the worst: when
it got through sawing me in pieces I was
taken to another shop where there were oth
er things that ran upanddown on the boards
to make them smooth. This was called a
“plane,” as one man said. From here a
piece of me was taken to another room
which was a paint department. 1 was
then varnished ai.d set away to dry. Tne
next day I was sent into town to another
shop, and here 1 had great iron feet screw
ed to me. This was very unpleasant, lor
it was very difficult to get around.
Soon the time came tor me to be put in
a school room, and that was the worst part,
of all, because I knew I should never see
the w< r d again—being screwed down to
the floor forever. The first day I was
there a little golden-haired maiden came
and took me for her desk. She put her
books in there: sometimes she wou d
bring her doll to school, and when the
teacher came near the little girl would
hurry the doll inside for me to take care of.
And that was not al): she would bring
a white Teddy Bear, which would make
me shiver when she stuffed him in to be
taken care of. He would scratch me with
his claws and climb all over me. He
would stick his tongue out at me and make
the most awful faces that I evorsaw.
Well, dear, I think I had better stop now
and wait until another time to give you
further experiences.
Dear Children:—l know a boy who,
before he was two years old, had a pug
dog. It was younger than the baby and
it was given to him by a friend. The
little boy’s name was Richard and he
lived in a big city. Richard and his
pug had quite a time getting acquaint
ed. Richard used to plav in the coal
bucket at times and get his hands black,
and so, when he saw how black the
pug’s nose was, he thought that the pug
had got into the bucket, too, and had
been eating coal. He thought that the
pug’s eyes were marbles like the ones
he rolled on the floor, and he used to
call the tail that curled up over puggy’s
back a “handle.” Richard and the pug
came to be very good friends and to
know each other a great deal better, but
one day when the gate was left open,
puggy walked out and didn’t know
enough to come back.
Now, Richard has another pet. It is
a kitten who is wise enough to stay
where she has a warm place to sleep and
plenty of good things to eat. Richard,
who is now seven years old, has been to
school and learned to write. He has
written what he calls “a composition”
about her—which he wants to have
printed. Maybe you will like to read it.
Here it is:
“My Kitten.”
I have a kitten whose name is Frisk.
She is very pretty and I love her, too.
And what do you suppose she does?
Well, I will tell you. She comes up on
the bed and she tickles me with her
whiskers, and then she licks my face
and lies down beside me. I. B. Y.
