Le petit Chaperon Rouge

11 était nue fois une petite fille de village, la plus jolie qu'on eût pu voir, sa mère en é- tait folle, et sa mère grand plus folle encore. Cette bonne femme lui fit faire un petit chaperon rouge qui lui seyeit si bien, que partout on l’appelait le Petit

Choperon Royg:.

Un jour, sa mère ayant fait des galettes, lui dit :

Va voir comment se porte ta mère-grand ; car on m'a dit qu'elle était malade : porte-lui une galette et c: petit pot de beurre.

Le Petit Jhaperon Rouge par- tit aussitôt pour aller chez sa mère grand, qui demeurait dans un autre village. En passant dans ua bois, elle rencontra compère le loup, qui eut bien envie de la manger, mais il n'o- sa, à Cause de quelques büche- rons qui étaient dans la forêt. La pauvre enfant, qui ne savait pas qu'il était dangereux de s’ar- rêter à écouter un loup, lui dit : Je vais voir ma mère grand, et lui porter une galette avec un pot de beurre que ma mère lui envoie.

—Demeure-t-elle bien loin ? lui dit le loup.

— Oh ! oui, lui dit je Petit Chaperon Rouge ; c’est p-r-lelà le moulin que vous voyez tout là-bas, là-bas, à la première mai. son du village.

—Eh bien, dit le loup, je veux l'aller voir aussi ; je m’y en vais par ce chemin-ci, et toi par c. chewin-là, et nous verrons à qui y sera le plus tôt.

Le ioup se mit à courir de toute sa force par le chemiw qui était le plus court, et la pe- tite s'en alla par le chemin Je plus long, s’arausant à cueillir des noisettes, à courir a près des bonquets des petites fleurs qu’el le rencontrait. Le loup ne fut pas longtemps à arriver à Ja maison de la mère-grand ; i) heurta : toc, toc.

—Qui est là ?

—C'est votre fille, le petit Chaperon Ronge, dit le loup en contrefaisant sa voix, qui vous apperte une galette et un petit pot de beurre que ma mère vous envoie.

La bonne mère grand, qui é- tait dans son lit, à cause qu’elle était un peu mal, lui cria : Tire la chevillette, la bobinette che- ra.

Le loup tira la cheviilette, et la porte s’ouvrit.

1] se jeta sur la bonne femme, et la dévora en moins de rien :

car il y avait plus de trois jours qu'il n'avait mangé Ensuite il forma la porte, et s'alla coucher dans le lit de la mère, en atten- dani le Petit-Chazeron Rouge qui, quel-temps après, vint heurter à la porte.

Toc, toc.

—Qui est là ?

: Le Petit Chaperon Rouge, qu: entendit la grosse voix du loup. eut peur d'abord ; mais croyant que sa mère-grand était enrhu- mée, elle répondit :

C'est votre fille, le Petit Cha peron Rouge, qui vous apporte une galette et un petit pot de beurre que ma mère vous en, Voie.

Le loup lui cria, en adoucis- sant UN peu sa voix: Tira Ja chevillette, la bobinette cherra. |

Le Petit Chaperon Rouge tira la chevillette, et la porte s’ou- vrit.

Le loup, ia Voyant entrer, Ini dit, ense cachant dans le lit sous :a Couverture :

Mets la galette et Je petit pot d2 beurre sur la häche, et viens te coucher avec moi.

Le PetitChaperon Rouge se déshabille, et va se mettre dans le iit, eù elle fut bien étonné de

voir comment sa mère grand <- tait faite en son déshabillé. Elle

lui dit : ‘—Ma mère-grand, que vous avez de grand bras! —C'est pour mieux t’embras- ser, mon enfant. —Ma mère-grand, que vous avez de grandes jambes ! C’est pour mieux courir, mon enfant. —Ma mère-grand, que vous avez de grandes oreilles ! —C'est pour mieux écouter, mon enfant. ’ —Ma mère grand, que vous avez de grand yeux ! —C'est pour mieux voir, mon enfant. —Ma mère-grand, que vous avez de grandes dents ! C’est pour mieux te manger. Et en disant ces mots, le mé- Chant loup se jeta sur le Petit Chaperon Rouge et le mangea.

MORALITE

On voit ici que les jeunes enfants, Surtout de jeunes filles, Belles, bien faites et gentilles, Font très mal d'écouter toutes sortes de gens,

Et que ce n'est pas chose étrange

S'il en est tant que le loup mange,

Je dis le loup, car tous les loups

Ne sont pas de la même sorte,

Il en est d'une humeur accorte.

Sans bruit, sans fiel et sans courroux.

Qui, privés, complaisants et doux

Suivent les jeunes demoiselles

Jusque dans les maisons, jusque dans les ruelles,

Mais, hélas ! qui ne sait que ces loups doucereux

De tous les loups sont les plus dan- wereux.

La Prohibition

La ‘Semaine Commerciaie” demande à tous ceux qui sont hostilles à la prohibition de se remuer pour empêcher que l’é lectorat accepte cette utopie. Les remarques du confrère à ce su: et sont assez curieuses à lire parce que, sans le vouloir peut- être, elles nou: révélent proba- blement le fond de ia pensée des hommes qui se sont embar. qués dans cette ridicule affaire. En voici un extrait :

“Nous ne voulons pas dire que l'enregistrement d’une ma

constituerait un décret de pro hibition. 11 faudrait encore l’ac. tion du Parlement ; et comme la prohibition complète des boissons légères ou fortes entrai- uerait une perte de revenu de plusieurs millions, qu'il faudeait remplacer par la taxe directe, i] n'est guère probable que les députés et les ministres eux-mé mes fussent bien empressés à pousser les choses plus loin Mais on sait parfaitement à quel point les partis politiques ont joué depuis des années avec cet- te question de prohibition, et à force de se renvoyer la balle, i; peut arriver des accidents. Les melileurs amusements, prolon- gés outre mesure, 60n pernicieu x pour la santé. En somme, tandis que les électeurs ont la proie sous la main, ne serait-il pas plus sage de leur part de lui done le coup de grâce ? Ils mettraient fin à une situation équivoque qui pourrait sans miracle tour. ner mal.

Ainsi, même sile pléhiscite est favorable à la prohibition, il n'est pas certain que l'affaire tourne au sérieux, c'est-à dire que le désir de la majorité popu. laire devienne loi.

Alors pourquoi toutes ces dé. penses, pourquoi cette agitation, pourquoi ces deux cent mille plastres dépensées en pure per- te Puisque le gouvernement Laurier veut absolument dépen- ser de l'argent, il nous semble pourtant qu'il pourrut trouver d’autres placements plus utiles que celui-là.

FROM THE NEW YORK WORLD, . “Home Occupations will be welcomed 4 weary mothers, for it is very clever and fu of hints and suggestions they can carry out.'””

FROM THE PHILADELPHIA PRESS. (e

‘Home Occupations should be read by all mothers, and all other people who have the care and training of infant minds.”?

‘* One of the remarkable features of the book is the extent to which home materials and home-made contrivances are brought into play. Cedar blocks, sand, clay, boxes, scissors, paste, paper, pencils, beads, garden tools, flowers, fruits, black boards, and nearly everything called into requisition by Miss Beebe’s methods, are within easy reach of most of_ those into whose hands her book will fall.” ,

FROM THE BOOKSELLER, - :

‘Home Occupations for Little Children, by Katherine Beebe, a well-known kindergartner, of Evanston, IIl., will be welcomed by many mothers, who will find it full of valuable sug- gestions to aid in rearing their littleones. Man cross and disagreeable children would be speed- ily restored to good nature if their mother or nurse knew enough to guide the immature mind to some pleasant occupation without too great interference with its own freedom.’

FROM THE KINDERGARTEN MAGAZINE.

‘“ Any mother with the problem of restless little people to lead into the paths of happiness and usefulness, can find much assistance in Miss Beecbe’s little book, and would do weli to avail herself of its thoughtful suggestions.”

The occupations here considered are of three kinds. The first are those which require the active par- ticipation of an older person; the second, those for which only occa- sional direction or assistance is ne- cessary; the third, those in which the child can engage by himself,

F recent years the interest taken in the noble art of self-defense has been 2most universal. The cuiltivation in our colleges of athletic exercises, and the great interest taken by allciasses of people in physical culture, would seem to indicate that this is the golden cra of muscular development and the establishment of a perfect manhood.

Gladiators of the Prize Ring bas been prepared in the most careful manner : every

fact has been verified by exhaustive research and carc- ful compilation of official data. Every important event in the fistic arena, from the first ring en- counter down to the great battles of the present day, both in this country and abroad, is given a place. The biographical matter is historically correct and the portraitsare taken from authentic photographs or sketches from life. The accounts of fistic combats in this book are composite compilations from the personal experiences of those most competent to describe the events—the principals, secords timckeepers, backers, referces, etc. The book will be found unexcelled as an accurate work of re- ference, for not à fact has been distorted nor a line set down in malice.
