he reached the ,main road. Then •
he sat on 'the graSs and Waited.
He watched the motor, cars and ,
-the .lorries whizzing past, and he ,
stared up at them hopefully, "Surma
ly one of them will, stop," he,
thought, But none of them 'did. At,
last—aboin lunchtime—a blue
motor car came 'slowly along. It
was driven by a man called Mr.
Kerrey, Who Was taking his wife
and his two children, jenny and
Martin,' for a picnic.
"A-h! Here's a little lane at last!"
exclaimed Mr. Murray and he stop-
ped the car. The kitten jumped ups
from the` grass. "Miaow!" he cried.
Miaow-ow!"
Everyone got out of the ear, and
Jenny and Martin .ran towards the
kitten. "Do you think Ws lost?"
they cried.- -
Theititten •darted off in front of
them, mia9wing loudly be the time.
He led them 'along the.' lane and
into the garden of the cottage.
`Then ,he went jumping through the
long grass until he reached the
notice:board that said "COTTAGE
FOR SALE"—and-the sat down on
it. Martin came running along and
picked him up. Soon he was joined
by Jenny and Mr. -and Mis. Murray,
While Jenny and Martin were
stroking the kitten, Mr. and Mrs.,
Murray were 'staring 'down at the
notice-board.
"Cottage for sale!"'they exclaim-
ed; " And doesn'l it look i'lavely,
one?"
" I believe it's just what we've;
been looking for," cried Mr. Mur-
ray.
The Murrays brought their pic-
nic basket into the garden, and
after lunch, Mr. and Mrs. Murray.
looked all over the cottdge. Mr.
Murray went •hack to the notice-
board and copied an address from
it, Then they went away—taking
the little black kitten with them.
Soon after that, workmen arriv-
ed tat the cottage. They began to
hammer in nails and screw in
screws. They took paint brushes '
and watt sw-ish, sw-ish, up and
down the walls and across the ceil-
ings, Floors were scrubbed, win-
dows and 'doors mended; 'and the
rooms were painted in gay colors.
The roof was mended -so that the
rain no *longer came dripping
:through, 'When the cottage had
been painted inside and out, a large
furniture van 'came lumbering tip
the lane, and four men began to
carry carpets and beds and chairs
and tables and Chests of drawers
and cupboards and mirrors and pic-
tures inside the cottage.
When everything had been car-
ried in, a blue motor car came
along the lane, and out pot Mr. and
Mrs. Murray, 'Martin and Jenny.
Jenny was carrying a basket. She
lifted the lid, and out jumped the
black kitten!
Murrays-quickly lighted fires
in every' _room and popped the
kettel on. Soon the family Were ea-
ting around the tea table enjoying
their tea, While &isle—for that was
the name they had given the black
kitten—was lapping up a Saucer of
milk in faint of the fire.
That 'night when 'the Moon was
shining above the cottage and the
Murrays were all fast asleep in,

"Wasn't My idea a good one?"
"Iiewas a , . • WONDERFUL

In Christian Science Monitor
Off a certain main road and
down a narrow lane, there was a
little cottage, Nobpdy ever came
down the lane nowadays,' Motcir
cars rushed along the main road,
but they never 'turned into the lane.
The cottage had been empty -for
a long time, All around, the 'gras;3 ,
grew bigh, and the. 'flower beds '
were full of weeds. A notice-hoard
which had the words "COTTAGE
FOR SALE,;' had fallen down, and
was now lying hidden -in the long
grass. '•
"Oh, dear!" sighed the , cottage,,
"nobody comes to see me ally
more. My windows are broken,
my walls are shabby, and the rain
drips through my roof. And .
yet I'dernake such a lovely home
for somebody, I've got', cosy fire-
places and a bathroom and 'a kit-
chen. „ . but what's the ;good?'"
And he began to sing sadly to him
'self;
.//
"What's the good of :taps
That no one ever turns?
Whatis the good of fireplace ,
Where a fire never burns?"
One morning be woke and. felt
the warm sunshine on his roof,
and he wished that someone would
come walking down the lane. "But
nobody ever comes," he thought._
He sighed and his wooden floOr-
boards creaked. In a sad little
voice. he began to sing.
"There are no carpets on my floors,
And no handles on my deers,
Cobwebs hang from every wall,
And nobody:ever comes here at
all!"
