PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By David Cory.

S Well, after Fuss Junior left the lovely princess who had changed from a llttls green snake Into her natural form, as I told you in the l ist story, he marched along for many a mile until at last lie came to a stile, where a big black crow sat prcning his wing, but oh. dear me, when he tried to sing, you never heard such a dreadful sound; why. it went just like a knife when it's gror. .and. Dear me. There I go. making up poetry without putting it into verse. But, never mind, next time I won't forget. “Helloa. there, little Puss Jnnior,” said the big black crow, and of course be stopped singing when he spoke to Fuss, which was a great relief to a little canary bird on a tree nearby who sang so sweetly that Mrs. Caruso wanted to buy him and pnt him in a cage. Aid then that big black crow said. “Caw, caw i" and flapped ills wings, and, all of a sudden, be dropped a pretty little gold book. So Fuss picked it up and was just going to band it ba ‘k to the old black bird, when he flew away and never came back. So Puss sat down <v, a stone and opened the little gold book, and the first thing lie saw was a picture of a Fairy Queen. Then he turned over to the next page, and right there was the portrait of the King of the Gnomes. And after Fuss had looked at it for a few minutes he turned o er to the third page, and there was the picture of a great big, tremendous Giant. Well, Fuss didn't like that very well, so ho turned to page .4, where, would you lieiieve it, he saw fcis old friend the Good Gray Horse. And after that lie saw the pictures of all his old friends Tom Thumb. Litth- Bed Ridng Hood, Old Mother Goose and. I'd tell ou the rest, only I haven't the room. *"VYe!I, that's the nicest book I ever law.” said little Puss Junior, and he looked up at the little canary, who was still sitting or. the tree dose by. And ifter that she came and perched herself in his shoulder and looked at the piourcs with him, and while they sat tliere vho should come along but a peddler with a great pack on his back? And when he saw Puss he stopped and said, *1 have a beautiful silk scarf wbl?h 1 sill sell you for a song.” “I can't sing well enough for that.” (aid little Puss Jjnior. *‘l can,” said lie little canary, and she began: 'Tra la. la. la. tra la la, la, ■l’ve a yellow wing, Bnd all through the day ■ I chirp and sing, sut I never sang for a silken scarf. So, Mr. Peddler, don't you laugh.” And after that the peddler banded the silken scarf to the little canary. ”It's a magic scarf." he said, “and if yon tie it a i-ertain way it will carry you through the air like a pair of wings.” - Rut I don't need wings.” said the little canary: “I already have a pair,” so she handed the scarf over to Fuss Junior, and in the next story 1 11 tell you what happens after this, for he tied the scarf Into u beautiful bowknot—but there, that's the cret of tuat beautiful scarf.—Copyright fße be continued) PASTOR AN “ANGEL.” .MILFORD, Mass, Dec. 21.—The Rev. ■U Jk T Pomeroy, pastor of the MetboIO £ Church, admits that he is an angel *livering a sermon on "The Ang<M„ G s pill/ord, ’ he told his congregation to ■ gaze upon him, as he was an angel.
