Sometimes it opens the door to knowledge and omctimes it opens the door to trouble. It is more likely to do the ter than the former. Peter Rabbit | 1 learned a great deal through curiosity. Also, he has had many narrow cscapes through curiosity. But the latter haven't taught him unvthing. He is still as curious as ever. Yes, sir, Peter is as full of curiosity as ever he was. The worst of it is he will take all sorts of chances to gratify that curiosity. Tt is a lucky thing for Peter that he has those long hind legs to get him out of the trouble that his long cars gt him into. Peter was over in the Green Forest. How it happens that Peter had not heard the news in rogard to the children of Yowler the Bobcat and Mrs. Yowler I do not know, but he hadn’t.
