Boxer and Woof-Woof Whine . BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. It is a great delight of mine ‘To make the stoutest-hearted whine. —Jack Fi That being trus, it is not to be Wondered at that Boxer and Woof- Woof, the twin cubs of Buster and rs. Bear, began to whine when they felt Jack Frost pinching their noses end toes, for, being only half-grown, they were hardly yet stout-hearted. Besides, having never met him be- Jore, they didn’t know what to make ©f Jack Frost. All through the autumn they had ¥ollowed Mother Bear about from one feast to another. They had filled their &‘omachs with wild grapes. They had stuffed themselves with sweet beech- uts. They had eaten acorns until PTHERE 1S SOMETHING THE = TER WITH MY TOES AND I #AAX:;T ‘TO GO HOME,” WHINED BOXER. there had Deen a whole nEver-to-be litle ‘oak trees n shelr zound little stomachs. Twlice they Ead made themselves sick on honey Far and wide they had roamed, tag- &ing along at the heels of Mother Bear and thinking of nothing but eating and sleeping. And they had grown fat. Of course. It could Pardly have been otherwise. Being fat, they had not minded when the weather gradually grew colder. In fact, they had liked it. To carry so much fat about in warm Wweather was uncomfortable. And then Fad come the night when Jack Frost By Lucille SYMPATHY’S KIN. HE old Leland house was lo- cated far back from a wide, elm-shaded street. The last time that Merriam Lindsay had looked at it she had glanced back at a brilliantly "illuminated doorway whose huge Doric pillars were deco- rated with flowered garlands for her wedding. But on a gray November morning, when her cab stopped in the side drive, it looked even more impres- sive. With deliclous incongruity she found herselt giggling. She was thinking how droll her wee suburban stucco cottage wauld look if it were built near this massive brick struc- ture. She had been rather surprised that her aunt had not met her at the eiation. A new maid, who did not know her, answered her ring. It was ot until her father's old butler eame into the hall that Merriam found her- self sitting down rather suddenly on the hall sofa clinching her fists in a brave attempt not to cry. “Peter!” she smiled up at him, «aren’t you ashamed of yourself not to come to the door! I shall tell dad on you'” Peter—the old dear that he was— uite right, Miss Merry, you His voice was perfectly level. But he had tears in his eyes. Merriam could see her belated let- ter on the hall table. “Miss Leland has been feeling in- disposed for a few days,” Peter ex- plained, “Martha doesn’t g0 up in the morning until she's called.” “Quite right,” Merriam mimicked Peter's grave manner. “But I'm go- §ng before I'm called!” She ran light- Iy up the stairs. She tapped on her aunt's door. A maid behind her coughed apologetically. . “Miss Leland has the south cham- Per now——" Merriam’s temper flared. Her small foot stamped. “Oh—how dared she! That's my own room!” The maid scuttled away in dismay as this regal young creature sailed into the south chamber. The sound of the two women’'s voices floated over the stairs. “Little_old peppery red head!” Pe- ter chuckled; ‘“‘marriage hasn't cooled her off at all—' But when he carried a breakfast tray up the stairs a few minutes lat- er he could hear Miss Leland explain- ing. “Your room was so much sunnier, and it's so lonely with nobody left at home——" “I don’t care really,” Merriam’s list- Jess tones replied, “I just wanted to make a dramatic entrance, I guess. Rich thought I ought to come up t explain things to you. Mr. Trow- bridge hasn’t heard from dad for over two months—' “What of it?” Miss Leland poured ‘her coffee. *“Mr. Trowbridge says there {sn't enough money to keep the house go- ing.” Merry put it bluntly. “Fiddlesticks!” her aunt went on placidly eating, “your father’s income doesn’t vary enough to amount to a yow of pins. He's told me s, often.” *“But it has now,” Merry's bronze curls shook. “His foreign securities have gone way down to nothing and the American ones aren’t bringing in a tenth what they used to. Mr. mmoney?” Miss Leland snapped tartly. ‘“They thought they could rent the house.” “Your father—" “Isn’t here—" Merriam was Josing patience. She and her Aunt Alice had never gotten on very well. But she did feel truly sorry when that bewildered woman dissolved in tears. It hadn't occurred to Merriam that it would take her more than three days to make matters clear to her aunt, help with getting the house ready for rental and journey back to her own wee house in Rosedale. But at the end of a week her own home seemed very far away, indeed! And all the months that she had ‘been John's wife something: that had happened ages ago. Her father's house made her long, as she had mever longed before, for her big, whimsical dad. And the task of put: ting away his personal belongings ‘was a heartbreaking one. She had found a dull-blue frock hanging in her wardrobe the day after her arrival, a school frock that she had worn when she was sixteen. It was soft and warm and simple to work in; she was wearing it late one afternoon as she perched on step- ladder in the high-ceilinged library trying to make some sort of cata- Jogue of her father’s rare books. The fire was almost burnéd out; it was twilight when Peter came in to an- mounce Richard Slocum. *Rich,” cried Merry, running down ghe ladder toward him, very much Fad been 50 busy covering the pond of Paddy the Beaver and the Smiling Pool with ice and freezing the ground and pinching all the toes and noses he could find. Mother Bear and the twins had started out early that svening, for by now food was getting scarce and they had to hunt for every mouthful. Jack Frost found them and at once began to pinch their noses and toes every Boxer and Woof- ‘Woof didn’t know what to make of it. “There is something the matter with my toes and I want to xo home,” whined Boxer, holding up one paw and shaking it. “My nose aches, ‘Woof, rubbing her nose with one paw. “The ground is hard and hurts my complained Boxer. skivery and I wish I was at home in comfortable ‘Woof-Woof. “I'm not hungry. chance he got. whined Woof- whimpered I'm not hungry But 1 am sleepy,” grumbled he shuffled along after Mother Bear. “Ouch!” cried Woof-Woof. thing bit my ear!"” Of course, nothing had bitten it; Jack Frost had pinched it rather sharply.
