THE RAT 



' Nasty messy pigs !' I called them, and they told 

 me to mind my own business, so I took their 

 advice, and set to work to make myself as happy 

 and comfortable as possible. ]^ut how I did it, 

 and what I did, will take a good deal of telling, so 

 I had better bid you adieu for a few moments 

 while I collect my wandering thoughts.
