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

where Danny was sitting. There It
stood fur a moment, giving Danny a
splendid chance to see Just what it
looked like.
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

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."
