STORIES FOR BEDTIME.
Peter Rabbit at Last Meets Miss
Fuzzytail.
By TAOfnton w. Burgess.
Copyright. 1913. by ]. G. Lloyd.)

Peter Rabbit was feeling better, and
certainly he was looking better. You
see just as soon as Old Mother Nature
saw that Peter was trying to look as well
as he could and was keeping himself as
neat and tidy as he knew how, she was
ready to help. as she always is. So she
did her best with the rents in his coat
made by the claws of Hooty, the Owl
and the teeth OF Old Jed Thumper, the
big gray Rabbit who thought he owned
the Old Pasture. and SO 1t wasn't long
before Peters coat looked nearly as good
as new. Then, too, Peter was getting
enough to eat these days. 1t was days
and days since he had seen old Jed
Thumper and this had given him time
to eat and sleep.
Peter wondered what had become OF
old Jed Thumper. Perhaps something
| has happened to him." thought Peter.
IL almost hope something has" Then,
| being ashamed of such wish, ne added,
Something not very dreadful but which
will keep him from hunting me for q
| while and trying to drive me out Of the
| Old Pasture
Now, all this time Peter had been try
! ing to find little Miss Fuzzytail. He was
already in love with her, although all he
had seen of her were her two soft, gentle
| eyes shyiy peeping at him from behind a
big fern. He had wandered here and
wandered there looking for her, but al
| though he found her footprints very
often, she always managed to keep out
| of his sight. You see. she knew the Old
Pasture SO much better than he did. and
all the little paths In 1t, that she had
very little trouble in keeping out Of his
way. Then, too, she was very busy.
You see 1t was she who was keeping her
cross old father, old Jed Thumper, away
| from Peter, because she was so sorry Tor
| him. But Peter didn't know that. II he
| had am afraid that he would have been
more in love than ever
| The harder she was to find the more
| Peter wanted to find her. He spent a
great deal OF time each day brushing
his coat and making himself look as fine
as he could, and while he was doing it
| he kept wishing over and over again that
something would happen SO that he could
show little Miss Fuzzytail what smart
| brave fellow he really was. But one day
| followed another, and Peter seemed ne
nearer to meeting little Miss Fuzzytail
| than ever. He was thinking OF this and
was really growing very down-hearted
one morning as he sat under q friendly
bramble bush. when suddenly there was
sharp little scream of fright from be.
hind a little juniper tree.

per tree, and what he saw filled Peter
| with such rage that he didn't stop olree
| to think of himself. There was little
Miss Fuzzytail In the clutches of Black

often stole away from home to hunt in

BAL KAN WAR IS BRUTAL,
SAYS EX-SENATOR YOUNG
Arrives in London After Having
Spent Weeks With the
Servian Army.

LONDON, July 29.-Former United
States Senator Lafayette Young OF Iowa
has arrived here from the Eervian army
headquarters at Nish, which he left last
Thursday He said he was glad to reach
here and to be able to dine in hotel
after a week spent with Maddin Sum-
mers, United States consul at Belgrade,
in the war zone, travelling In freight cars,
sleeping on the ground BECAUSE of lack
of tents and eating black bread.
Mr.. Young said that from the number
of wounded men he saw, the war in
the Balkans must be the most brutal ever
fought Americans. he said, could not
appreciate the intense hatred existing be-
tween the Bulgarians. Servians and
Greeks. Foreigners in the Balkans speak
siightingly of the fighting ability of the
warning factions, declaring their boast
ings are disproportionate to their achieve
mentS.
''The most serious situation for the
Balkans" said Mr.. Young, 'is the utter
absence Of anything for the people to live
on when winter comes. Wheat and oats
are rotting in the fields and corn Is be-
Ing strangled by weeds. The army Is
taking all the hay for the thousands Of
oxen engaged in transport service

erty, injured several persons and filled
the city with terror. Not for years has
such a storm ragged in Baltimore Wind,
rain and lightning played havoc.
About fifty houses were unroofed in
the southwestern section of the city.
Many OF the occupants were made tenn
porarily homeless and the loss OF fur
niture will be very heavy.

unroofed, tall trees were blown to the

wires fell, endangering the lives OF hum
dreds

ported to be in much better shape and
the cars were able to traverse the road
way more frequently. In fact, officials
of the company expressed relief after
they had Investigated the various causes
which brought about delay in the
schedule.

produced a new pylorus by punctur-
ing the stomach, cutting the intes-
