LITTLE BEDTIME STORIES
JIMMY SKUNK HAS HARD
LUCK.
by Thornton w. Burgess.
Copyright, 1913, by J. G. Lloyd.)

When Peter Rabbit lodged out from
under Farmer Browns porch with
Thomas the Cat at his heels he was so
frightened that at first he didn't look to
see where he was going and so almost
lodged just in time and ran three times
around the dooryard looking for place
to hide. while Farmer Browns boy chased
him and Bowser the Hound barked. But
frightened as he was, and he was terri
bly, frightened-yes. sir, he was terribly
frightened-he didn't forget to keep his
eyes open for some sign of Johnny
Chuck's lost baby whom Farmer Brown
boy had carried away
AT last Peter found a hole in the wire
fence and slipped through into the old
orchard How he did run. He stopped
just long enough in the far corner to tell
Johnny Chuck the sad news that he had
seen nothing of the lost baby, and then
he kept on as fast as he could go to the
dear safe old brier patch. He found
Jimmy Skunk waiting just outside to
learn what Peter had found out. Peter
told Jimmy all about his terrible adven-
lures and how they had been for nothing,
for, you see, he had found out nothing.
Jimmy Skunk laughed. You see, he ism t
afraid much of anything, not even
Farmer Browns boy when the latter
hasn't his terrible gun with him.
"Tll see what can find out tomorrow .
said Jimmy. he started for his home
which. you remember, used to be the
home of Johnny Chuck.
When night came Jimmy Skunk started
for Farmer Browns. He had been there
so often to steal eggs that he knew all
about. Farmer Browns dooryard and just
where every hiding place was. First he
went to the henhouse and helped HIM
self to Il good dinner of fresh eggs. Then
he started out to explore Farmer Brown
dooryard. He took his time, for Jimmy
Skunk never hurries. He even went right
up on the doorstep. You see, it was dark
and there was no one about to see him.
He hunted everywhere-among the chick
en- coops, around the house the barn and
in all the sheds. but nothing of the lost
baby Chuck could he find.
''lf he's here at all he must be inside
the house or barn." said Jimmy to him
self. I'll wait until morning and sec if
he comes out to play. l can take nice
little nap under the porch while I'm
waiting
Now, if Jimmy Skunk had gone straight
over to the porch and crept under for his
nap he probably wouldn't have gotten
into trouble But Jimmy Skunk likes to
poke ms nose INTO everything, ana Is al
ways looking for something new to eat.
Out in the yard he found a can which
had been thrown there that day. 1t was
a can from which the corn that Farmer
Brown had had for his dinner had been
taken, and there was just a wee bit of
the corn sticking to the sides of the can.
Jimmy Skunk shifted at it. 1t smelled
good. 1t made Jimmys mouth water.
He put in one little black hand and
scraped out what bits of corn he could.
.Iimmy
put his head in to lick up the sweet corn
milk. 1t was hard work, but finally his
head slipped in and he had soon licked
the inside of the can clean.
Then he tried to back out. but he
couldn't back out. He grabbed the can
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-04-24

with his hands and tried to pull his head
out, but the can stuck tight. He couldn't
move it a bit. The sharp edges of the
can caught behind his ears and held fast
For once in his life Jimmy Skunk was
frightened. Yes. sir Jimmy Skunk was
badly frightened. Indeed. he was SO
frightened that he quite lost his usual
good sense. He tried once more to back
out. He ran backward, and. of course
took the can with him. Bump. Jimmy
had landed against the side of Bowser the
Hounds little house. OF course. Bowser
walked and came out with a roar that
frightened Jimmy almost to DEATH For
tunately Bowser was chained and Jimmy
backed out of reach.
1t seemed as If Jimmy managed to back
into everything in Farmer Browns door
yard. He upset two big milk cans He
knocked over pile of flower pots. He
bumped into the chicken coops and the
henhouse and a wagon. and all the time
Bowser the Hound was making a ter
rible noise. Jimmy Skunk certainly was
in hard luck.
