dash off then and there. Indeed she
took one leap before she remember
ed who she was and that she had a
youngster named Nimble.
Then, of course, she stopped
short and looked wildly around. Hut
she saw no little spotted fawn any
where. She had been startled enough, be
fore, roused as she was out of a
sound sleep. And now she was tcr
riblv frightened.
"Nimble!" she called. "Where ari
you?"
Here I am! Nimble answered.
Even as he spoke he burst into sight,
leaping the stone wall in such a
way that his mother couldn't help
feeling proud of him.
'What's the matter?" she cried.
"Who's chasing you?"
"Nobody's chasing me," Nimble
told her. "When 1 saw the Fox I

rim. "Where did you see the Fox?"
she demanded.
"He was right over my head,"
Nimble said.
"My goodness f his mother
gasped. "That was dangerous. Was
he on a bank above you?"
"He was in a tree," Nimble re
plied. "
His rother gave him a queer look.
"What's that?" she asked him
sharplv. "In a tree. What did he
look like? Was he red?"
"He was grayish, and he had black
rings around his long bushy tail;
and his long pointed nose stuck out
from under a black mask."
"Nonsense!" cried Kimble's moth
er. "You didn't sec a fox. You saw
a coon."
Nimble was puzzled.
"You told me once," he reminded
his mother, "that a fox was a sly
fellow with a bushy tail and a long
pointed nose. And this person in
the tree had'.'
"Yes! Yes!" said his mother. "Now
listen to what I say. A Fox is red.
And his tail has no rings at all. And
foxes don't climb trees."
1 "Yes, mother!" was Kimble's meek
answer.
He was glad to learn all that. And
he was glad, too, that his mother
hadn't asked hirti how he happened
to stray off alone into the woods.

Common Sense '
By J. J. MUNDY.
Do Yon Lack Iinitiative?
y You have not gone very far in a
commercial or .material way in this
world because you lack initiative.
Your brain is as keen and your
preemption is better than most men,
but when it comes to acting inde
pendently of anyone else you are
at a standstill.
What are you afraid of?
If you have never acted on your
own judgment of course you are
afraid, but you appreciate how much
farther you might have gone toward
success if you had been less timid.
Half the battle is in knowing your
own faults and foibles.
You can see where you might
have benefited greatly if you had
taken the helm.
Then why don't you branch out,
and make up your mind that the
next chance you have you will get
into the game in earnest and lead
off? "
If you arc not willing to lead
when you see the opportunity, you
have no right to criticise others in
the moves they make.
Make it your business to act first
when you see an opportunity, not in
a wavering, wobbly way, but
Itraight from the shoulder. Go ahead.
You will surprise yourself and
gain confidence and grow.

A Silly Song
By A CUCKOO BIRD
Life brings her pleasures almost
every day and offers them to us
witn lavish hand, but we, poor busy
fools, put them away, for later use.
We cannot understand that youth and
joy cannoi, iikc coins oi gold, DC
shelved in rusty vaults for years to
lie, and be brought forth again, when
we are old, and we store thcn up
for "by and by." And when, at last,
we open up the door of that vast
storehouse, locked within whose
gloom we put the joys life offered
us of yore. We find our storehouse
has become a tomb. The joys and
pleasures that we put away, until am
bitious name was lull leu, have, with
the years, like us, grown old and gray
ami live, within our storehouse, cola
and dead.

Parents' Problems
Should a child who is not musical
and does not care for music be given
music lessons?
A child who is not fond of music
will never be anything but an auto
maton. His technical skill may be
trained to perfection, but unless he
loves music, he will never be a real
musician whose soul speaks through
his fingers.
