CHUCKY AND HIS PICTURE. 



"Oh, let's have Chucky's picture taken ! " So he ran and caught 

 little Chucky, and put him up in !N^eddie's high-chair. 



At first Chucky was frightened and wanted to jump down, but 

 Charlie fed him with clover-tops and kept him still. The picture- 



man peeped through his glass and said, "All right! " We all held 

 oiu- breath during the few seconds that followed. We were afraid 

 Chucky would get tired of keeping still. Soon, however, the man 

 said " Enough ! " and we sprang to take little Chucky from his high 

 position. 



The picture looked exactly like our funny little pet, and we Avere 

 very proud of it. 



Charlie said he never heard of a woodchuck having his picture 

 taken before. He thought Chucky must be the first one ever hon- 

 ored in that way.
