SPOTTY ; Her name was Spotty, and she had a black spot on the end of her nose

and one on each of her sides and the tip of her tall was black, but the rest

of Spotty's body was white

No mouse or rat ever explored the

kitchen -and lived to tell the tale un til Spotty met with an accident.

one aay spotty saw a bird on a

bush near the ground and she sprung

for it. She missed the bird and land

ed on a bit of glass that cut one of her front paws. "Maybe next time you will let the birds alone," said the dog that happened to see the accident. "I did not want to catch the bird," said the untruthful Spotty; "I just wanted to scare it away from the currant bush, so it would not eat the berries." "Don't tell that to me," said the dog; "I was brought up with you and know all your tricks." Spotty limped into the house and the cook put a piece of cloth around the injured paw and gave Spotty a saucer of milk, and soon she was asleep and forgot her troubles. After the cook had left the kitchen for the night Spotty heard something in the pantry. "That sounds like a mouse, said Spotty walking very cautiously toward the pantry. She looked in and there on the 6helf was a mouse. Spotty forgot the sore paw and sprang to the shelf, but the injured paw slipped and over she rolled on the floor. The mouse, of course, ran away, but in a few minutes he appeared again and looked over the edge of the shelf. Spotty was licking her paw and try-" ing to get off the cloth, for she realized she could not catch a mouse with one paw covered. The mouse squeaked a little laugh and Spotty looked up and the mouse ran back to his hole. "Come and look at Spotty," he called to the other members of his family. "Seme one has covered her paw and she cannot catch us." The mice ran to the edge of the shelf and looked at Spotty. "What is the matter with your foot?" asked one mouse; "did you

strike at a tough rat?" Spotty stopped licking her foot and she limped into the kitchen and lay down back of the stove. "She is limping,' said one of the mice; "she cannot catch us, let us have some fun." The mice went into the kitchen and ran over the table and chairs and rattled the tin on the shelf, and every little while they looked at Spotty and asked: "How is your sore foot; we are so sorry you hurt it." But Spotty was thinking and she did not answer. "I will catch all of them," she thought, "when my foot gets well, and I shall not have to hunt for them either." But Spotty kept away from the kitchen until .her foot was well, then

one night she took her place back of the ' stove and after the cook had gone she waited her chance. Out . came the mice, but Spotty did not pretend to see them; she got up very slowly and limped around the

room.

"Her foot is not well yet," said one

mouse; . she cannot catch us, and

they ran very close to Spotty, but she

did not notice , them. She limped a

few more steps and then she lay down in front of the stove. When the mice saw her settled, as they thought, for a nice sleep, they ran around the floor, when suddenly Spotty sprung at them and she held a mouse in her -paw. Then she hid in the pantry and - before morning she had all of her -tormentors. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good," said Spotty; "if I had not cut my foot I would not have known how to fool the mice"."

"All I have to do after this is to

limp about and reach out my paw and catch them." (Copyright. 1915, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate. New York City) Tomorrow's atory "Baby Buntin'."

"In Wayne county the process of amalgamation of the new and greater Republican party has gone quietly and steadily on and is practically accomplished. As evidence of the general acceptance of this fact we have only to observe the large number of candidates aspiring to places on the Republican ticket, and the dearth of candidates in other parties. There are still a few radical Progressives who contend that the contest should be continued, and also there are a few radical Republicans who are antagonistic toward former Progressives. There may be a few of each of classes that will be disposed to harshly criticize, and it may be, abuse each other during the next campaign; and to each of these we should deal charitably, and the more sober minded should do and say nothing that will antagonize, and that might delay the complete union of the former wings of the party. To those who had left us and have now returned, we should extend our hand in friendship and give assurance that all the privileges we have will be equally shared "with them. We should turn our backs on the past and keep cur faces to the future, for in union there is strength. "Thanking you for your hearty co-
