BEDTIME STORIE Reddy Finds Peter. Mistortunes of anothes may 5 "Rood “Tortune pave o ZRendy Fox. Reddy Fox is a clever fellow. Indeed he is. There is very little escapes the keen eyes and the quick ears of Reddy Fox. And his wits are quite as keen as his eyes and ears. You know, Reddy is one of those of whom we sometimes say he lives by his wits. As you know, Reddy and Mrs. Reddy had made their home up in the Old Pasture. Reddy was taking a nap on his doorstep that morning when & hunter shot at Peter Rabbit. Instantly Reddy Fox was wide awake. ! THIS SMELLS TO ME LIKE PETER RABBIT.” ‘The Old Pasture is large. It is rocky and brush-grown and there are many bramble tangles. The place where Peter Rabbit had been shot at by the hunter was & way from Reddy's home. However, Reddy knew by the sound just where that hunter was when he fired the shot. “So there is a hunter up here in the Old Pasture,” muttered Reddy. “I had hunters would keep away T know ‘Brown will ting up in the Old Pasture, but I've noticed that every ear one or two hunters do steal in *“HELLO BY THORNTO, W. BURGESS. der what that fellow shot at. I don't know of any one living over there just now. Of course a Grouse may have come over to the Old Pasture and I not know it. I think a little later I'll have a look around over there. I hate these | hunters with their terrible guns, but sometimes they do me a good turn without knowing it. I have found more | that one good dinner killed for me by | their terrible guns. They wound some one and then cannot find the victim. The latter creeps off to die, and that means a meal for me.” Reddy remained right where he was for scme time. Then he lazily rose to his feet, stretched, yawned and then trotted off along an old cowpath. Pres- ently he reached that part of the Old Pasture where the hunter had been. His keen nose soon found the scent of the hunter. Then Reddy began a sys- tematic search. With his ears pricked forward to catch every faintest sound, with his eyes watching for every least movement and with his nose testing every Merry Little Breeze that came along, Reddy began his search. “That hunter ? rgit here,” sald Reddy to himself a8 ke found the empty cartridge the hunter had dropped from n. “Whatever he shot at could ve been very far away.

This smells to me like Peter Rabbit. Can it be possible thai that hunter shot at Peter Rabbit? I wonder what brought Peter up here to the Old Pasture. He ought to know enough to stay at home in the dear Old Briar-patch during the hunting season. Hal! I do believe it was Peter that that hunter shot at!” Reddy had found Peter's scent and was following it along the cowpath. So it was that presently he came to the bramble tangle into which Peter had dashed to safety. It was a very thick bramble tangle. Reddy knew better than to try to make his way into it. So he sat down and began to peer between the brambles and bushes. So it was that he discovered Peter Rabbit. Reddy grinned when he saw Peter. Those sharp eyes of his told him at once that Peter was feeling very miserable. Peter was sitting’ his eyes half closed. ;x: had nelther seen nor heard Reddy = . “A lttle patience and I think I'll have a Rabbit dinner,” muttered Reddy ere for a little hunting.
