CHAPTER VI.
Buried Treaiurt.
Henrie tta Urn, who was one of the
buiieit bunyhodiet on (he farm,
citne along nd stood and watched
old dog fcpot while he dug and
icratchrd and howled about the
woodpile. ' -"What
on earth Is the matter with

TO A MOSQUITO
Our murderous attitude toward you
It not on account of your greed;
We'd only be too glad to afford you
The drop from our veins that you need.
Xo anger we'd (eel when you bite u.
And draw from our persons jour fill,
1 1 only you didn't requite us
So ill.
P.ut you. when your meal i completed.
And vour turn vou coinnlacfntly hug.
Don't know when you're handsomely treated,
Or feel you re a fortunate bug.
It was a choice bona.
vou?" bhe asked him. "I don't make I
halt that fuss when I've just laid
tgg and really have something to
cackle about."
1 ve no time to talk with you
now. Spot told Henrietta Hen
Can't you see that Johnnie Green
and I are now moving the wood
pile?"
''Why are you-' doing that?" Hen
rietta inquired. '.-.'
"There's something beneath it that
I want," he said hurriedly.
Henrietta Hen gave a sudden start.
"I wonder-If itV a-weasel?" sin:
exclaimed. ' And since Sic didn't
reply, and she had learned to bo
mortally afraid of weasels, 'she' ran
off squawking, to hide up in the hay
mow in the barn. ' '
Johnnie Green hadn't carried away
much more of the woodpile when old
dog Spot began to dig furiously in
the dirt. And in a few seconds' time
he unearthed a big bone.
It was a choice bone. ' lie had
buried it several days before. And
when he came back from the wood."
and found a woodpile on top of the
place where .he had hidden it, it was
in) wonder that he made such a
hpwdy-do.
Johnnie Green looked much upset
as he stood stock still and saw Spot
trot away with the bone m ms
mouth. :.
"So that was What he was after all
the time." he cried at last. "I hoped
it was a muskrat."
His father and the hired man
laughed and laughed.
"I don't see any joke," Johnnie
grumbled. "Here I've piled up wood
enough in the shed to last a month.
And I might have been fishing all
the time."
"Well," said his father,' "whose
fault was it?"
"Old Spot's, I should think."
Johnnie replied.
Not you; to the marshes that bred you
Your nocturnal journey you wing,
And leave the hides that have fed you,
Your sting I
" No ense of ingratitude moves you
To vow you will alter your course,
No uneasy conscience reproves you.
You know not the pangs of remorse.
Xext morning, light hearted and joyous,
You fly from the poisonous fen,
And virus you bring to annoy ut
Again!
And so, as you well might conjecture,
Had you any reason possessed.
As we come to end of our lecture,
You will pass to your eternal rest.
You die of the rage you engendered
As ungrateful wrong-doers should,
Who nothing but evil have rendered
For good.
TAME SPORT. '
Pancho Villa now spends his time hunting wolves, which must seem
to him like pretty .mal.ogmL iNiDiTidN. ; , ; ,
' It is a crime to give away liquor, but our experience, is that those who
have; it arc usually .&$faTlOy. . ' , "
k It is difficult to make men better by laws, and impossible to .make
lusiness better by legislation. : m
"I don't see how you can blame
him," said Farmer . Green. "Sup
pose you had buried a piece 01
strawberry shortcake here, expecting
to cat it for your dinner. And sup
pose there wasn't another piece as
good or as big to be had any
where. And suppose you had come
back from a tramp in the woods,
hungry as well, hungry as you were
this noon: Wouldn't you want that
piece of shortcake? If you could get
old Spot to move the wood off it,
wouldn't you be glad to have him
do it?" '
"Maybe," Johnnie admitted. "May
be! But Spot wasn't after a piece of
strawberry shortcake. He was after
an old bone. And he fooled me."
"I should say that you fooled
yourself," his, father retorted. "Any
how, we're going to have strawberry'
shortcake for supper , tonight. I
heard your mother say so. And she
made a special cake for you."
- That, news made Johnnie Green
look a good deal less gtoomy. '"'In.
fact he almost smiled.
"I was going to give you that old
went on. "And you could 'take it
now and go fishing, if you thought
you could be home in time for .sup

"Hurrah 1" Johnnie Green suddenly
jumped up and down. "Hurrahl" j
he cried. And thank you very
much!"
