The father of the<lb />family, after long hours of office<lb />work, has the habit when he gets<lb />home in the evening of walking the<lb />floor for exercise. As soonas he be-<lb />girs his walk ~~Mrs. Muggins� falls<lb />into line behind him, and, with head |<lb />erect and tail waving in graceful<lb />curves, marches up and down and<lb />back and forth through the room,<lb />only varying the proceedings once<lb />in awhile by rolling over on her<lb />back as the man runs round and<lb />plays with her with his foot. When<lb />the walk is over and ~~Mrs. Mugc-<lb />ginsT sees her master start for his<lb />big rocking chair she makes one<lb />bound, settles herself in the chair<lb />before he can get there, and, with a<lb />countenance that speaks as plainly<lb />as words, looks up at him and says:<lb />**Did you ever get left?�<lb /><lb />*~Mrs. Muggins� is a very good<lb />mouser, and oceasionally she will<lb />catch agreat big rat out in the barn.<lb />Of this feat she is always very<lb />proud, and invariably brings the rat,<lb />after it is dead, to the house,<lb />where every member of the family<lb />must see it, and praise and pet her<lb />for being such a good, bravecat. The<lb />first time this occurred one of the<lb />members of the family took the rat<lb />on a shovel and threw it over the<lb />back fence, but in a very few min-<lb />utes ~~Mrs, Muggins� had it back<lb />again; again and again wasit thrown<lb />away, but every time it was brought<lb />back. At last the two compromised<lb />matters by allowing the rat to re-<lb />main just outside the back door by<lb />the side of the step. Thereit stayed<lb />all day until evening, when it was<lb />found out why ~~Mrs. Muggins� ob-<lb />jected to having it thrown away.<lb /><lb />The father had been home only<lb />a few minutes when ~~Mrs. Muy-<lb />gins� walked proudly into the sit-<lb />ting-room with her head aloft and<lb />the big rat dangling from her mouth.<lb /><lb />She went up to the man and laid the |<lb /><lb />rat at his feet, looked up in his face<lb />and waited to be caressed and<lb />praised. After she received the de-<lb />sired attention she allowed the rat<lb />to be carried away and cared notb-<lb />ingT more about it. -<lb /><lb />Now the rats that are chapht are<lb />always allowed to remain near the<lb /><lb />B® | house until all the family have seen<lb />gi them."Cincinnati Tribune.<lb /><lb />The Unselfish Cricketer.<lb /><lb />ence oree ene<lb /><lb />The cricket ground is a wholesome<lb />training field for young Englishmen.<lb />**It has cost me, one way or anoth-<lb /><lb />gier, afiver to play in this: match.
