BURGESS BEDTIME STORIES --- By THORNTON W. Bl'RGESS. --1 Yomler's Cousin, Who Is Called Yonler, Too. Who could that terrible fellow be who hail climbed the tree after Whitenose, the Fox Squirrel? Danny Meadow Mouse wanted to know, lie felt that he ought to know. Who ] ever would try to catch Whltenose would Rurely try to catch Nanny and himself, It there was a chance. So it was something more than Idle curi osity that urged Danny to watch from the little doorway to his home. For a v.hil* he saw and heard noth ing. But he was sure that the strang er was still In the tree tip which he had chased Whltenose. The branches of that tree were covered with long masses of soft, gray moss, such as Is found only In the Sunny South. Be cause of that moss Danny couldn't see Into that tree, though he looked and looked and looked. Hut Danny could afford to be pa tient. In fact, he couldn't afford not to be. He had to know who this prob able enemy was and how he looked. So l>anny sat in his doorway and con tinned to wait. At last lie saw the long, hanging moss in that tree move ever so little. Someone was coming down that tree. From I he lowest branch a dark form bounded lightly to the ground only a few feet from THE NEBBS HAVF A CRUTCH Directed for The Omaha Bee by Sol Hess (JWE1lLO .MRV NEBS - IMVvrS IHDEED.'N kss^Jrr^..

Instantly Danny knew that he wa* looking at a cousin of Black Pussy, the Cat. There was no doubt that this was a member of the Cat family, ills coat was mixed gray and reddish brown. with faint blackish spots. His chin and throat were white. Me was whitish underneath, and this was marked with black s)»ots. Mis head was round and savage looking arid there were a few long hairs on the lips of ills ears. He was much bigger than Black Pussy, and had much longer legs and tnuclfs^bigger feet. But it was the tail on which Danny fixed his eyes. It was a stub of a tail, and as he stood there he kept that stub of a tail twitching. Me stood there only for a moment or two, then bounded away lightly. Danny drew a long breath. Me never had seen Yowler the Bob Cat up home in the North, but his cousin, White foot. the Wood Mouse, had told him about him and he knew that this stranger must be one of "Vowlers family. "That wa* a Bob C'at. as sure as I "That was a Bob Cat as sure as I liv**.” w hispered I taunt to Nanny. live, ' whispered Danny to Nanny. "Now we do have to watch out. 1 guess it won't be as easy to fool this fellow as it was to tool Black Pussy, the Cat from Farmer Brown's. My. ] I'm glad he didn't find us! I guess he Is just like Yowler. the Bob Cat Who lives in the Green Forest up home. 1 wonder if they call this fel low Yotvler. I'll have to ask White nose when we see him again." I.ate that afternoon Whltenose, the Fox Squirrel, returned and the first thing Danny asked him was who it was who had chased him up the tree that morning. "Yowler. tlte Bob Cat. sometime* called Wild Cat, and whom. 1 have l>een told, i* properly railed the Bay Lynx,” replied Whitenoxe promptly. "My. how l hate that fellow! He i* forever sneaking about, and he 1* so soft-footed that one never knows when he is near. 1 ou want to watch dW for him. Yowler Is very fond of Mice." iv'opyr ah'. 1924 * The next story: "Danny Kinds Foot prints." Birth* and Death*. w i: am and Katherine Diesing lio* pitai. boy _ . . . John and Kathleen Lament boapUa*.
