n? back to 'the hole beneath the big
Jiak in the pasture until the next daV,
r because Mr. Woodchuck would
ptchably bfc afraid that Tommy was
waiting tVf !'n, to come out. Yes
Tommy decided Swt Mr. Wood

among the roots of thetig tree and
not show himself again ufril he felt
quite sure, that his eiienfy had

h given up the idea of catching him.
But Tommy guessed that ny an
other day ota Mr. Woodchuck
wonlH be so htmerv that ho would
have to go out of doors again to get
something to eat. And Tommy Fox
could hardly wait for the night to
jjass. But another day came at last;
and it found Tommy up and hurry
ing to Farmer Green's back-pature,
where Mr. Woodchuck lived. It
was just growing light; and there
, was a heavy dew upon the grass
which Tommy didn't like at all, be
cause he just hated to get his fsei
wet. "'
Tommy did not o near Mr.
Woodchuck's hole. Although he
was just a young fox, he was too
wise to do that. He knew that if he
went nosing around Mr. Wood
chuck's dooryard the old gjwtleman
would smell his tracks as soon as
he poked his head out. So Tommy
Tommg Fox haj-dlg breathed
was careful to keep away from the
hole where he had dug so hard the
day before. He sneaked around un
til he had passed Mr. Woodchuck's
house; and then he crept up behind
the big oak close by. nd there he
waited.
Tommy kept smiling. He was so
pleased, because his plan was work
ing out very well. The wind blew
towards him, and Tommy saw that
Mr. Woodchuck wouldn't be able to
smell him when the old fellow came
up into the open air.
For a long time Tommy waited
there. He kept very still. And he
. stayed hidden behind the tree, with
only one eye peeping round the tree
rrunkj"S5-4hat he could watch for
Mr, Woodchuck. Jle was very
ptifnt--ws Tommy. You have to
bejjatient, yoa know, when you are
hunting. He ' crouched behind the;
tree for at least an hour, and never
once took his eye off that hole. And
at last he saw Mr. Woodchuck's nose
come popping out
If Tommy hadn't been watching
very closely he wouldn't have seen
it at all; for Mr. Woodchuck just
stuck his head up for a. second, took
one quick look all around, and
jumped back again. He hadn't seen
anything td frighten him. But he
thought it best to be very, careful.
Tommy waited. And pretty soon
that small nose came sticking out
again. This time it stayed longer.
And -to Tommy's great delight, in
another minute he saw Mr. Vood
chuck climb up and take a good lotk
all about.
Tommy Fox hardly breathed. He
didn't see how the old gentleman
could help spying him. But he
started off across the pasture, to
find something for breakfast. He
was very hungry, for he hadn't had
any supper the night before.
Tommy Fox waited until Mr.
Woodchuck" had gone just a tew
steps away from his doorway. And
then Tomm,y stole after him. This
time Tommy was between Mr.
Woodchuck and his house. And Mr.
Woodchuck couldn't escape.
It was all over in a second. And
Tommy Fox felt very proud of him
self when he reached home and
showed his mother what he had
brought.,
"I can hunt can't' I, mother?" he
said. "Tomorrow I'm going up on
the mountain and catch a bear."
"Don't be silly," Mrs. Fox said.
"You know you couldn't catch a
bear.". But she was much pleased,
in spite of what sjie said. For she
saw that Tommy was really begin
ning to learn something.

More Truth.
By JAMES I.
Xn honorable
A Roman oli'rmmin fvor th dismissal of ill coUeie professors who us profane
language on the coif ooursc.
I do not hold with him whose objurgations
Are loosed whenever little troubles fret;
I've never found that oaths or imprecations
Can soothe one's feelings when he gets' upset.
.And I agree, that quite unfit for teachers
Who shape our little children's minds for us,
Are those abandoned temperamental creatures
Who cuss.
Who cuss, that is, for any trivial reason,
With oaths devoid of wit, and lacking
Who use strong language in and out of season
Because they seem to think it rather smart,
Yet there are cases when hard words are nearly,
If not exactly, fully justified,
And rules against them may -be too severely
' Applied-
For instance, I should favor toleration
When staid professors vent a bit of spleen
As they, to gain a little relaxation,
Pursue the dimpled sphere from green to green.
Should they use certain words (I shall not name them)
When vainly they essay to biff the ball.
And merely swat the sward, I shouldn't blame them
At all.
Not even ministers are always careful,
While golfing, with no congregation 'round,
I've heard them-using words whose sense wa's prayerful
' But which possessed a wholly different sound.
For golf's a game of hazards and of chances,
In which our educators take delight,
And. cussing is in certain circumstances
All right.
NEEDED REFORM.

Romance in Origin
Of Superstitions
By H. IRVING KING.
Dogs See Spirits.
That the old superstition that dogs
can "see spirits'' is by no means ex
tinct, even among people whose cul
ture one would have su0posed to
have long outgrown it, is evidenced
by the fact that at one of Eusapia
Pallidino's "seances." Hereward Car
rington, a sceptical researcher- in
psychological field, brought a dog
into the room on the chance that it
might see, and give evidence of see
ing by its actions, the disembodied
spirits, if any which Eusapia claimed
to be able to summon about her.
Among the uneducated the supersti
tion is a common one in all parts
of the country.
This is evidently a survival
from classic times; a reminiscence
of the fable myth of the double
headed (sometimes tripple-headed)
"dog Cerberus whose business it was

exception...
to guard the entrance to "the abode
of shades." The supposition is ren
dered more probable from the fact
that in one form of the superstition,
apparently the older form, it is only
dogs with double dew-claws who
are possessed of the supernatural
quality of "spirit-seeing." But the
superstition is older than the myth
qf Cerberus, undoubtedly having
its origin with primitive man whose
dog, as he walked with him in the
forest, exhibited the traits which
have descended to the modern poin
ter and setter and apparently saw
things the savage could not see.
Our intellectual world is but a shal
low one; close to its surface lies
the caveman's mind overlaid by a
few centuries of dubious civilization.

(Cover up the answers, read the ques
tions and see it you can answer them.
Then look at the answers to see If you
are right.) ,
Follow these questions and answers
as arranged by
By J. WILSON ROY.
1. Why is our Saviour represented
as seated when delivering His sermon
on the mount?
2. Why docs our aviour promise
a reward to ilie giver of a cup of
cold water, given to a disciple in His
name?
3. - Why did oud Savioifr speak so
frequently in parables?
4. Why was new wine not put in
old bottles?
5. Why was our Saviour called the
j "Son of -Man,''
; 6. Why were 70 disciplc3 chosen
i by our Saviour?
! Answers.
i 1. Because sitting was the proper
posture of the masters and teachers.
2. Because by that figure He in
tended to convey the regard He had
for all acts of charity performed with
a proper motive, and for the honor
of God.
3. Because it was conformable to
the customs of the east to do so, and
was popular mode of conveying
truths with the Jews.
4. Because the eastern bottle is
made of the raw hide of the animal,
consequently when any fermenting
liquor is put into it. the skin, being
gree, distends. Should the bottle
have stretched by this process, then
it would burst if put to a second
trial, because it could not yield to
the new pressure of fermentation.
5. Because he had a design to es
tablish' His human nature against
those who might be disposed to re
gard Him as a mere spirit or angel.
