At first Mrs. Reddy did not seem at all interested, but when Reddy told her there had been five little Rabbits and four little Chucks at that party -she licked her lips hungrily. She thought right away of her own little Foxes and how much they would enjoy tender Rabbit or Chuck. “Of course,” said she, “there aon't be a chance to catch one of those youngsters.
