Short Stories lor Little Glilidren s
Specially Written for The Constitution Junior, by Mr. G. T. Lee, of Tennessee. .
THESE STORIES are written by Mr. G. T. Lee, of Johnson City, Tenn., a nephew o
General Robert E. Lee and a first cousin of General I’itzhugh Lee. 1 hey are familiar
in many southern households, as the series -one being published each week —is a coni
pilation of old-time southern stories, of which Mr. Lee says; ‘‘Many came down from the
negroes, and some of them were told me by my parents.”
Brer Hare and de Eleaphant.
Once a. hare and an elephant were such
friends that they called each other broth
er, or. as black mammy used to say. br’er.
A mischief-making fox told the elephant
that tiie hare said some mean things about
him, so he got very .angry and called
the hare a sneaking little orchard robber
and garden thief. Then the same old fox
told what the elephant, said, and the hare,
broke into a laugh and replied: “Humph!
I don't mind what that beast says, for
lie is nothing but a great hog, with over
grown snout and tusks.” When the ele
phant heard this he was so mad that be
snorted around and pawed the earth like
a wild ox.
Th. n he went to the terrapin and said:
“if you will help me catch that little ras
cal I will mak. you rich
Old terrapin poked ills head out of his
.shell, blinked liis eyes and answered: ”Go
and get in your lied, pretend you are dy
ing, then that you are dead ami then, if 1
do not bring cunning Mr. 11,ire within
reach of your trunk, you may kill me for
a fool.”
The elephant went and laid down under
a tree, preitemLng to be very HI. Atter
awhile ho pretended to be dead, and the
many animals around bis said: Poor
Br'er Elephant, he is dead and gone.
’l'iia.t same day Brer Hare was in his
house, and. seeing tiie terrapin come up.
he said: “Good morning, Br'.r Terrapin,
what's all tiie news with you?”
Did terrapin liid not speak, but burst
out crying: "800-hoo! 800-hoo!”
Then Br'. r Hare said: "What is the mat
ter, Br'er Terrapin? Why uro you crying
“Don't you know, Br'er Hare? Why,
poor Br’er Elepeliant is dead.
You don’t say so, Br'er Terrapin? Well,
I am mighty sorry. f.*t Brer i'.iephant and
1 used to tn great friends.”
“I know it. Br’er H..rw Br’er Elephant
grieved mightily because you and he fell
out. and ask.-d me t > beg you to come
and help to bury him. He said he could
not rest iu his grave if you did not.”
' I'll do it, Br'er Terrapin. Go ahead and
I'll catch you." And tin n. when the terra
pin left, he scouted around In tlm bushes
and found out ometli.t. .. after which he
■aught up with . .. terrapin. When they
got near to the elephant the hare stopped
and said: “Ho ■‘ ’
good. A man ;c ver really dead good
until liu coughs three times.
Now tiie elepliant heard him and
thought li mu-i prov that he was dead
indeed, so he coughed, “I gli-hoo! Fgh-tmo!
ilgli-lmo'” Then cunning Br’er H iro burst
uit : "Ah-llu -l a-I.a! A !• ad man . in t
cough! i liah! A dead man • n t
cough!” and ran oft ■ -■ ’ ■ his n ide
Fi'. r Eiephmt so mad that ho jumped up,

Allie C. Huntley, Deep Creek. N. C.—Dear
Junior. I will t ike for mv subject ”T!’;
Danger of Keeping Had Company.” The
danger of keeping bad company arises prin
cipally from our aptness to Imitate and
catch the manners and sentiments of oth-
sav: “All right, Br’er Elephant, a bare will
risk anything for a good apple. Now. if
you will get a piece of hollow log, just
long enough to run your trunk through,
lay it in the hate's ixitih and put a nice ap
ple in it, he will find that apple and walk
right into your trap. Then after a lew
days, you must go tmere some dark night,
lie down at the end of tlm log farth.-st
from the hare's house, put your trunk into
tile log, and, wihen be comes for his tipple,
set the log on end, run your trunk down
and kill tlm little rascal. But don't forget
to save tiie. meat for me, Br'er Elephant,
for hare's meat is tiae sweetest iu tli
yyoi'lii.” Then Hie elephant did as the owl
said, and tlm hare went to tlm log ami got.
a fine apple every evening for several days.
< day . ■ wa.s sitting in his hi u -
studying how to g. t even with the elephant
and a rattles nake tin it was also always
trying to catch him. All at once he jump, d
up and ran to the marsh, where he gained
oil a piece of milk Weil, which lie dragged
along and put into l.he hollow log. W imte

W. li, on- day H rained and Br’et Hare

staved in his house, in the
snak- w-nt tor his milk, but did not tin.
. : . ... m the log a:

I laid down at the end oi the log, put his
I trunk into it ami held a sweet smelling
I app.e in the end of his trunk. Ihe snake
rawled up to sei what was 1 ■’ ■ '
touched tlm elephant, who, think ng that, he
had caught cuntung Mr. Hare at last m
the io- oil eml and ran his trunk down

for instead of catching a poor little lint..,
hl- caught a rattlesnake, which ■" i k lin.

Just till'll tlm clouds rolled from over the
