"I suppose, of course, they can't have lulls, or they would have bad them before now. I Imagine they can't tell them In the shops, which suemi a great pity. "I am lure If aome good shopkeeper should put up a sign: j ana lor suie, mere would ne grmt ruxh to buy them and the police men would have to be called to keep the people from falling over each other, , "No, there can't be any shops of that tort, or the people would have bad tolls. And evidently their mothers and their dadillea must have been care leu not to bave said when tlicy ar rived: 'Mere, yon go atralght back and get tails before you come Into our house.' "Probably their grandfathers and grandmothers were careless about their daddlea and mothers. Probably no person ever took the trouble or the time to see that they had tails. It must ba a great loss to them. I can't understand It, but at leaat they bave my sympathy.

"Tell You Some Things. my fine toil, which I can fling this way and then that way, and which I can twist about any branch of any tree and so have It help me to climb, just as many of the monkeya use their tails." It's good of you," said a voice, "to feel so badly about people not having talis," and the Brazilian Opossum saw a funny looking little creature stand ing in ironi oi mm. . "I'm Peter Goblin," aald the little creature, "and I've been hiding be hind that tree while you were talking. I was not listening to secrets out of school as I could tell from the way you talked you didn't mind being heard at all. 'Then too, I knew I eould come and tell you some things you hadn't heard. "People don't want to have tails. They don't care much about climbing treea either, Boys and girls like to climb trees, but they don't wish for tails. "I've never heard a boy or a girl wish for a tall, and I know boys and girls pretty well," Peter Ooblln said. "They don't know me so well, but I do know them well, and I know they never wish for tails. "It may seem strange to you, but tt Is true.

"That's right,1' said Peter Goblin, "for it would be a waste of time and you'd become quite unhappy yourself, and that would never do I" Why Dahlia Waa Peeved. L. W.
