LiTTLE Harry is only four j'ears old, yet he is very fond of all 

 kinds of animals. He is always ready to share his food with any 



stray dog or cat which he can induce to accept 



it. He is nev 

 secure a bird 

 for a pet.

 pa, I have

 a strange- 

 looking 

 mouse ! 

 come and see 

 him. He has 

 wings just like 

 a bird." 



"I think it 

 must be a bird, 

 ifit has wings." 

 I replied. "Ditl 

 you catch it? "'

 He was dead

and see him." 



I went with him, to see what 

 his new pet might be. I soon 

 found that he was not so far from right as I had sup])osed. 

 Lying in an old box was a little dead creatu^re, very much like a 

 mouse, but with large wings stretched out to their full length. 



" Poor little mouse ! " said Hany, kneeling by the box. " It has 

 lost its tail; I think the cat must have bit it off."
