selfishness will seldom pay. Friends are never won that way. -eoid Mothei Nature.

There are times when it takes very little to mabe folks feel better. Roddy Fox was feeling better. He had been somewhat in despair be- cause it was so long since he had had anything to eat. He had done his best, and there is no better hunter than Raddy Fox. But though he had hunted and hunted until his feet were sore from traveling about on the crusted snow and ice, his stomach was still empty when he came to where Little Joe Otter was fishing in an

open place when the watu was

too swift to freeze, He watched Little Joe eat two small fish that he had caught. Little Joe was sel- fish. He hadn't so much as offered Reddy a bite, He had eaten all of those two fish but the heads and tails, than had gone off. Reddy had eaten the' two tails and one head. The other had fallen in the water. and Blacky the Crow got it.

Now, for a hungry Fox those two fish tails and one head were just scraps, and not very good ones at that. They were not very filling for an empty stomach but some- how they did change things. They gave Roddy something he ceded quite as much as he needed food. They gave him hope. .

Reddy followed along up Laugh- ing Brook. It wasn't long before he sighted another fisherman. This one also was dressed in brown, just as Little Joe was, He was a small cousin of Little Joe's. He was Billy Mink. Raddy had been airald to have trouble with Little Joe Otter. but he had no fear of Billy Mink. He decided right away that he would watch Billy, and it Billy caught a fish. lake it away from him

So, Raddy turned spy. He kept out of sight of Billy Mink, but managed to keep Bill, in his own sight. Presently. Billy disappeared in the open water. Reddy took this

Roddy grinned slyly as he watched direction,

chance to move quickly to e. hiding place close by that water, In a few minutes, Billy Mink climbed out with a. nice Trout in his mouth. He didn't stop to eat it. as Reddy had hoped he would. instead. he ran along the bank with it, and disap- peared around a little bend. Reddy was undecided whait to do, Before he could make up his mind. Billy Mink was back. Onre more he dived nto the water. Raddy settled back in his hiding place. It was hard to keep still, He wanted to go see what Billy had done with that fish. He k:new that Billy hadn't eaten

the same time he wanted to keep hidden right where he was In case Billy should catch another fish. so he was-impatiently patient. and presently the head of Billy Mink bobbed out of water, Billy had an- other h.

B As b ore. Billy climbed out of the water, and before Reddy could move had darted away around that little bend and out of sight, Roddy sighed; it was a deep sigh. "I wish I could catch fish." he sighed.

Billy Mink didn't come back. He had gone farther up Laughing Brook to fish in another place. Reddy waited as long as he could. Finally he made up his mind that Billy Mink wasn't going to return. He came out if his hiding place. and hurried up to the little bend that Laughing Brook made, the band around which Billy Mink had taken those two fish. Reddy stop- ped abruptly, and his sharp eyes looked hastily all about. There was no sign of those fish. nor did there seem to be anything In which. or under which, Billy might have hid- den those fish.

"But, he did hide them." said Reddy talking to himself, "He must have hidden them."

Then another thought came to him. Billy Mink hadn't come back.
