When Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse had started on their strange journey in the great man-bird, the Green Meadows were brown.

Happy Jack Squirrel, Chat- {terer the Red Squirrel and Rusty the Fox Squirrel were busily engaged in {carrying acorns and hickory nuts and lcn»nnuu and becchnuts to their storehouses. Jack Frost came every night. Johnny Chuek had gone to {sleep for the winter. Jerry Muskrat and Paddy the Beaver had finished making their houses ready for winter. |Tionker the Goose had come down from the Far North and had already continued on_hi v to his winter home in the Sunny South. Jenny Wren had been a long time gone. So had most of the feathered folk of the Old Orchard, excepting those who had planned to spend the winter there. Old Mr. Toud had buried himself in the ground and had already been in his deep winter sleep for some time. Grandfather Frog had long since sought his winter bed in the mud at the béttom of the Smil- ing Pool.

It was only after the noiso the great man- bird made when flying had stopped that Danny and Nanny could talk. “Have you noticed, my dear,” sald Danny, “how much warmer it has grown?
