BAD LUCK BECOMES GOOD LUCK

'I'hei'e's nothing that is wholly bad; That hard for some makes others glad.

-Reddy Pox.

That is a wise saying of Reddyis. But Reddy is a wise person, Were it not so he would not still be hunt- ing over the Green Meadows and in the Green Forest. He is naturally smart and has the wisdom to make the best use of his smiartness. one may be smart yet not wise. Recldy is both. Reddy was having a hard time. He had been shot by a hunter with :1 dreadful gun. Rcdriy had not been badly wounded. for the shot had been too small and the distance too great for this, But enough shot had hit him to sting badly and make him he quiet for a few days. His loft hind leg had suffered most and had become stiff so that when he began moving about again he couldn't use it. He would be able to after a while. but while that stiff- ness remained he couldxftuseitas he needed to. He was having hard work to catch enough food to keep alive even with the help of Mrs Rcddy who shared with him what she could get. He would have done

the same for her. Both Raddy hm! Mrs, Reddy had been hunting all night without

much success. Mrs Reddy had re- turned home to the Old Pasture at daylight. Raddy didn't get back un- til well into the morning. He had caught only one House. One Mouse in an empty stomach isnt much. Usually Raddy is an optimist. An optimist is cne who always sees the sun behind the clcuds. The worst never happens ymd never will. A pessimist is just the opposite; one who sees only the clouds and is sure

.the sun never will shine again. No

are sure to be wrong. some folks seem to find a queer kind of plea- sure in being pessl-mists. Roddy was becoming a pessimist.

"What use is there in trying to live?" muttered Roddy as he made his way home. walking on three legs to favor that sore. stiff leg. I've hunted all night and caught only one Mouse and was lucky to catch that one. It was hardly a bite. No. sir. it was hardly a. bite. How can 9. Fox live cn only a bite at day. Just one bite? What is the use of trying? There isn't any use." thought he.

This wasn't like Reddy. It wasn't at all like him. But for the stiffness in that leg preventing running and jumping asaFox musttoget enough food. no such thoughts would have entered his head. Yes. Roddy was becoming a pessimist.

Then just off the path at the edge of the Old Pasture he found the finest dinner a Fox can have- a plump Hen, plump because she was fat. She was dead and lay on a stump close to the path. Roddy stared as if he couldn't believe his own eyes. He felt like rubbing them to be sure they were all right and he really was seeing what. he seemed to be seeing. It looked like a Hen. It smelled like a Hen. But what was in fat Hen doing on a. stump at- the edge of the Old Pasture?

And so the man and woman who marry a second time take mar- makp the best of it, and thus they escape the awful disillusion and letdown that comes to the young husband and wife when they discover that marriage is a working partnership instead of a dream walking. and that they have married mere, ordinary, faulty human beings instead of a cinema hero and heroine.
