Because for severalgnlghts some who had gone out as they had been in the habit of doing had never been seem become of them. Black Pussy the Cat was the only one they ever had had to fear and it usually was in the daytime that Black Pussy visited the barn. Now and then he came hunting in the they always knew when he was about. when he caught a Mouse it usually was a young and need- less one. The smart ones had no trouble in keeping out of his -way. so I ‘couldn't be Black Pussy who had we it safer to visit the gram bins in daylight than in darkness. No one had, seen or heard a strange hunter. It was a mystery more frightening than a known enemy could have been. What was happening? No one knew. t was Nibblet. the young Mouse w 0 had come over from the wood- house to live in the barn, who found out that it was I hunter. but such a hunter as he never had heard of and so of course knew no- thing_ about. For two or three days and nights Nibblet had been stay- ing very close to the home nest that he and his pretty mate had made in the haymow. Perhaps I should have said that Mrs. Nibblet had made. He had helped mostly by looking on. They had lived mostly on seeds from the hay. They were getting a little tired of these and wanted a chanse. They had heard of no new disappear- ances. Perhaps there was no long- er that unknown danger. Nlbblet became venturesome, He was sure there must be some grain spilled around the grain bins. He decided to go down and find out. "Be careful," warned Mrs. Nib- blet. "of course I'll be careful. I al- ways am careful," squealed Nib- blet. He was careful. He was very careful. Theytruth is he was is scared Mouse. and a scared Mouse is always i! careful Mouse. He man- aged to get down to the grain bin: without onc‘e exposing himself in the open. From between a barrel and the end bin he cautiously peepcd out. It wasn't wholly dark. A ray of moonlight came through a small window and lightened the darkness a little in front of the bins. It would have been dim for your eyes and mine, but night- sccing eyes could see clearly there. There was some spilled grain on the floor just as he had been sure there would be. To get it he would have to run out just a little in the open. Twice he started to do this and twice he hesitated. Then, be- fore he could start again. a small Rat darted out from behind an- other bsrrel. He was young, not -more than half grown, but bigger. much b er than Nibblet, too big for Nib et to dare go near him. There was nothing Ito do but mi: until that Rat left. Then it happened. To the startl- ed Mouse what seemed llke e liv- ing shadow, for ,there -was no sound, appeared from high above. For an instant he saw two glaring round eyes. there was a Mlfiell. and the living shadow and the young Rat dis. appeared in the darkness high above. Nlbblet had seen the hunter in the dark. .
