him coaxlngly, hut he pietcnded not to
hear; ho saw them lay out tempting
bits ot food, but ho pretended nut to
see, though ho always went around
afterward and ate the titbits.
Gradually he got tho Idea, into his
timid little head that these little slila
were his friends. And a prouder, liap
pier kitten never lived! He followed
them everywhere. I.ald for hours nt
the door of their apartment watching
for a, sight of them, and altogether
showed as plainly as ever a cat can
that he considered himself their slave.
But one day he carried It a bit too
far.
The two little girls, with their moth
er, were working In their storeroom,
straightening their nlnvthlntrs mid he.
Jongngs. when Nig found them. He
immediately wanted to play. Hut work
ing time Is no time for play, and the
little girls tried to tell him so. But
would he listen? Not he. He hung
around close In spite of the danger of
being stepped on.
Finally the work was all done, the
room in order and locked up, and the
little girls were ready for .the romp
with Nig. But they couldn't Hud him!
They hunted far hours and thn had
to give up and go to their mipyer.
The next niornluir Nig was still miss
ing', so mother was called upon ts jln
the seareli.
(She went straight to the storeroom,
and th we he was! So frightened aud
huugryv poor fellow, h eould hardly
stand.
The doleful "meow-ow", with whlcfa
h? greeted bl reuer imM w plainly
as poMibU: "No more storerooms (or
me l think they are worse than jani
tors or boys or anything'"
1
And thereafter he was vei taieul
where he followed even the little girls.
