NEW MOLE HOME.
“Mr. Mole was going to get mar'
tied,” said Daddy, “and he wanted to
build a fine, fine Home for the new
Mrs. Mole. So he went forth into the
nicest meadow he could find, and there,
just at the end of it, near an old fence,
Mr. Mole started to burrow into the
ground.
“You know the Moles live under-
ground almost all of the time, and
there make their Homes. Just near
the fence Mr. Mole began to dig and
dig. First of all he made a long, long
tunnel, a funny underground passage
which he called the Drive-Way of his
Home!
“Of course the callers of Mr. and
Mrs. Mole could hardly drive along
this tunnel, but they could run and
scamper along, and they liked to call
it by a big name like Drive-Way.
“And after the long, long tunnel Mr
fMole started in to make a fine House
out of the earth. He made lovely
irooms, one for Mrs. Mole, one for him
self, one for the little Mole who was tc
do the cooking and housekeeping and
several for guestrooms. For, as you
can imagine, Mr. Mole was very fond
of company. In addition to all this Mr.
Mole built a very fine picture gallery-
made in tiers of earth and mud—long
rows and rows of it. On these he put
pictures of his family which he made
out of earth, too.
“You see their eyes are very small
and they likf> to look at things more
worth while—such as food and corn
starting to grow in the ground and all
the things the Farmers plant. They
love farms you know, where wonderful
vegetables are planted deep- down in
“Please Admire My Dress."
the earth. They are very apt to bur-
row along and make paths so they can
walk to a farmland and have a feast.
“But I must tell you more about Mr.
Mole’s new home. The very last thing
•he did was to build a beautiful throne
in the picture gallery for Mrs. Mole.
“At last it was time for her to come
to her new Home and Mr. Mole had in-
vited their friends and cousins, the
Cricket Moles, to come, too.
“ ‘Here we all are,’ said Mrs. Mole,
and she blinked her very small eyes,
while all the other Moles blinked theii
tinj’ eyes, too, and looked about them,
Through the Drive-J«Vay they ran until
they came to the House with all the
beautiful rooms.
“The room Mr. Mole took them to
last was the picture gallery, where
Mrs. Mole sat on the throne in honor
of her wedding day, and the little Mole,
who cooked, brought out some of the
delicious stewed vegetables she had
made for the wedding feast.
“You should have heard the Moles
as they looked at the pictures. They
thought every picture was one of their
own relatives.
“One Mole would say:
“ ‘Why, there’s Mamma,’ and another
would say:
“ ‘Why, no, that’s not your Mamma,
that’s my Papa.’ However, they didn’t
get in the least angry about the pic-
tures—in fact, they thought it very
clever of Mr. Mole to make pictures
which looked like all their relations at
the same time.
“ ‘But you haven’t noticed my wed-
ding dress,’ said Mrs. Mole. ‘I think
my new Home is S-C-R U-M-P-T-I-
O-U-S, which means beautiful in case
any of you little Moles don’t under-
stand the word I’ve said in honor of
the day. And now that you’ve all ad-
mired my Home, please admire my
dress.’
“For the first time the Moles noticed
that Mrs. Mole had attached to her tiny
ears little earrings made of mud with
a red berry in each, and she wore a
necklace to match. Her dress was of
dull oak leaves which Mrs. Mole had
saved for a whole year to wear on her
wedding day.
“ ‘You’re a handsome Mole,’ said Mr.
Mole, ‘and I’m so proud you’re to share
this Home I’ve made,’ and all the other
Moles grinned and ate more and more
of the vegetable wedding feast to show
what a good time they were having."

Mother Raccoon’s fine Stories, and
they would all curl up on the old dead
branches of a very, very tall tree
which Daddy Raccoon had picked out
as his special home.
“One day Mother Raccoon was just
about to start telling one of her
Stories when Daddy Raccoon saw all
the Children around her.
“ ‘Now this afternoon,’ said Daddy
Raccoon, ‘I want to take all those silly
little 'Coons and show them how they
can become brave big 'Coons like I
am.’ And he thrust his tail this way
and that with an air which said, ‘I’m
certainly one of the finest, bravest Ani-
mals anyone could hope to be like.’
“All the little ’Coons looked very
mournful when they heard that they

they had often heard the sound of a

“They began to wail and yell, but
Daddy Raccoon was firm and as he
was the head of the house—or rather
the big tree without any leaves—
Mother Raccoon had to let them all
go.
“But as they W’ere following Daddy
Raccoon, she called out to them, ‘If
anything happens to you wish very
hard that you will be all right and the
Fairy Queen may possibly be near by
and will grant you the wish.’
“Daddy Raccoon sniffed with scorn
at such a remark, but he said that
Mother Raccoon was such a sweet old
dear she even thought well of the Rab-
bit family—and so she was apt to
think so much of the Fairies in the
same way.
“And off they all started. Some of
the little ’Coons were rather proud at
going off to hunt in the swamp and
really pretended they were tired of
Fairy Stories and were glad that Dad-
dy Raccoon had thought it was time
for them to grow up.
“Soon they reached the swamp and
in they went to hunt

had said.
“They did just as

hunters and finding just how to pick
out the best parts
of the swamp—

would you believe it, that Man waa
heard to say:
“‘Well, I guess they’re all away for

Raccoon took all the little ones back
to the old tree where Mother Raccoon
was sitting curled up, shaking with
fear while waiting.
“‘Tell them all the Stories you
want to,’ said Daddy Raccoon, ‘for one
of your Fairy friends saved all our
lives and whispered to the Man with

“Mother Raccoon believed strongly
