THE GAT LEARNS TO DANCE. 



" I only know how to make you dance," replied the mouse. " I 

 do not know how to stop you." 



So poor Buzz had to dance all night, till the boots wore out. 

 But the wise old mouse ate up the bread and milk. 



Since then cats cannot help dancing when they put on paper 

 boots. And a proverb in cat-land says, " It takes a friendly fiddle 

 to make merry heels."
