what was the matter with Granny"
You see, We have come out to see
the Great World, continued Grumpy.
II see," replied Peter.
"And-and there are some things We
don't know continued Grumpy.
Really" interrupted Peter Il didn't
suppose there was anything that young
sters like you didn't know
Grumpy pretended not to hear, and
went on And so we thought that
perhaps you would be kind enough to
give US your advice Mr.. Rabbit
Now. to be called Mr. Rabbit always
makes Peter feel very dignified and
important. And to be asked for his
advice makes him feel more so. He sat
up now very straight and looked very
serious.
Il shall be very glad to give you my
advice" said he.
"Unc' Billy Possum is friend. and
one friend always helps another when
ne can. OF course. being Cnc' Billy's
children, you are my little friends, ard
if 1 can be of help I shall be delighted.
Suppose you begin at the beginning
and tell me the whole story"
So the three little possums began at
the beginning and told Peter all about
how they had listened to the voice of
the Great World and had started out
to see the wonderful things it had told
adventures up to the time they had
met Granny Fox. Then they told how
pleasant she had been and how she had
offered to show them the wonderful
things they wanted to see. and how
Sammy Jay warned. them not to go
with her. and then how at last they had
found Granny out and had fooled her
by keeping up in the treetops. When
they reached this Peter had to laugh.
1t tickled him almost to pieces.

DR.. BUTLER IS RETURNING.
Washington Doctor Relieved of Red
Cross Work in Serbia.

DIR. Ethan Flagg Butler. son of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Henry Butler, 1885 l
street northwest, who has for more
than six months been leading the
American Red Cross relief work in the
cholera and typhus plague districts of
Serbia, has been relieved and is re-
turning with ten nurses to this coun-
try. 1t is probable that after a vaca-
tion here he will again be sent back
to continue his relief work.
Reinforcements of surgeons and
nurses have arrived at the American
Red Cross Hospital in Belgrade. Ser
bia. DIR. Butler for the last few days
has been in Saloniki, Greece, purchas-
ing supplies for the Belgrade hospital,
of which DR.. Ryan remains in charge.
from funds of the Serbian supply COM
mittee, Washington organization of
his personal friends under the chair
manship of his mother, transmitted to
him through the American Red Cross.
DR.. Butler and the nurses probably
will leave Saloniki this week and will
go as far as Marseille on Sir Thomas
Liptons yacht Erin.

FISH RECEIPTS LIGHT,
Prices Somewhat Lower, However
Grabs Particularly Scarce.

Dealers in sea food at the wholesale
market at the wharf report receipts of
hsh and other articles of sea food as
being light, but despite this prices to-
day are reported somewhat lower than
they were week ago. This is due to
the fact that there is but little demand
for fish and the like, berries and spring
vegetables having to considerable
extent replaced them on the hucksters'
wagons.
This morning there was but a light
supply of fish and crabs on sale and
prices ranged about as follows: Salmon
trout, 10 cents a pound: bluefish, IA
cents pound: Spanish mackerel. II to
IA cents a pound: mullets, to cents
pound; white perch. 5 to 12I2 cents
pound; rock, 10 to Is cents a pound !:
halibut. IL cents a pound: carp, cents

ers. 81 a barrel: butterfish, $6 a barrel !:
sea bass, SO barrel; yellow perch. Is
to 30 cents bunch; catfish, Is to As
cents a bunch, and eels, to 10 cents
each.
Crabs are particularly scarce this sea-
son. Hard-shell era BIS are selling at 50 to
$3.50 a barrel and soft-shelled crabs are
bringing 40 to 60 cents a dozen. CLAIMS
are in fair demand at so to go cents a
hundred.

WINS THREE PLACES.
D. C.. Buscalps Pigeons Finish First,
Second Third in 5O0-Mile Race.

When D. c. Buscalls pigeons won
the first, second and third positions in
the Washington Racing Pigeon Club
final race from Nappanee, Ind. yester-
day, they accomplished feat that has
never been duplicated in the history
of the club, for never has a member
won such distinction in a long-distance
race What adds further to the dis
tinction Is that the competition was
the keenest that has been offered in
a 50O-miie race for Washington COM
petitors, no less than twenty-five lofts
being represented.
Close on to 200 pigeons were released
at 5s5 am. local time, June IA, by H.
l.. Weygand at Nappanee. Ind. and the
pigeons met trying conditions over
mos. of the course. The first arrival
was timed in at Riverdale, Md, at SIT
am. June IS, beating the next loft by
more than an hour. and this loft clocked
the only three birds before o'clock.

10 Bedtime
By THORNTON W. BURGESS.
Copyright. 1918. by J. G. Lloydl
Peter Rabbit Is Consulted.
God gives no better gift to you
Itan Just a friend WHO'S tried and q

pperty-Iipperty-lip along the Lone
Little Path through the Green Forest
came Peter Rabbit. 1t was very clear
to see that Peter was feeling good.
He was. He was feeling very good in
deed. In the first place, he had no
worries on his mind. Peter doesn't be-
lieve in worrying. Then a few min
utes before he had seen old Granny
Fox. and she hadn't seen him. She
mad passed very near to Peter without
once suspecting that he was near. This
tickied Peter. 1t always ticl<led Peter
when Granny Fox had a chance to
chase him and didn't know it.
Granny had been muttering to her
self and very plainly was in bad
temper. Perhaps that was one reason
that she hadn't seen Peter.
Now. what can have upset Granny
like that?" thought Peter. as he hoped
up the Lone Little Path. There must
have been something happen up here,
and l wonder what"
You know how curious Peter is.
Now. when the three little possums
saw Peter coming they suddenly felt a
great relief. They knew Peter was a
him ever since they We're big enough
to come out of the hollow tree where
they had been born. They knew. too.
that Peter was wise in the ways of
the Great World. So their hearts grew
lighter as they saw him coming, lip
rtylipperty-lip.
Well tell him all our troubles and
ask his advice" said Grumpy. in n very
decided way.
So just as Peter reached the turn in
the Lone Little Path his quick ears
caught the sound of scratching claws.
and he looked up to see three little
possums climbing down to one of the
lowest branches of tree close by. OF
course, he knew right away that they
were three of Unc' Billy Possum's chill
dren.
Hello" he exclaimed. in surprise.
Aren't you little folks long way
from home? Does Unc' Billy know
where YOU are?"
Moo replied Grumpy. rather slow
ly. NO one knows where we are but
Sammy jay and Granny Fox"
