His voice was very sad.
What was the trouble Uncle Wig

4 will tell you replied the puppy
dog. Ny name is Sandy, and had a
most happy home with Mildred and
her brother Geenie. And l was good
puppy, too. Mildred said so. Oh,
what fun we had together. just low

But yesterday, in fun, l was play

children next door, and accidentally

am so miserable. know Mildred and
! Geunie want me back, but how can
they get me, and how can find them?'
"Ha! I'll show you!' Uncle Wig
gily cried II know where their house
is. I'll take you home in my airship,
but after this you must be careful
about biting rabbits, even in fun"

i Yes Uncle Wiggily said, and now
for little trick. don't want to go
down there in my airship, for it might
surprise Mildred to see me, an old gen.
tleman rabbit, in such thing
But if you don't go down how can
( |. go down?' asked the puppy. 1T is
too far for me to jump"
You will not have to jump Uncle
Wiggily said. Il will tie Nurse Jane 8
clothesline to you and lower you softly
down. Then you can loosen the rope
when you are> safe, and I'll pull 1t up
again"
And this was done. While the air
ship lowered over the tree tops, Uncle
| Wiggily lowered the puppy to the
groun6 by the clothes line.
,'Oh, Sandy, our dog, has come back!
Our dog has come back!' cried Mild
red, as she ran to him and put her
arms around the puppy's neck.
Il knew Sandy would come back!"
Geenie said. "If he hadn't I'd have
gone hunting for him." And the puppy
dog was so glad he almost wagged his
tail off,
Tnen Uncle Wiggily hauled up the
clothes line, and in his airship he went
on home to his bungalow, very glad
indeed that he had helped Sandy, the
little lost doggie. And I think you can
easily guess how glad Mildred and
Geenie were

II will bring you clothes line with
pleasure" Uncle Wiggily said, as he
put some talcum powder on the cleo
trio fan that made his airship go for
ward or backward.
Then the rabbit gentleman took his
place in the clothes basket part OF his
airship, sitting on pile of sofa cush-
ions, so in case he fell to the ground
he would not be hurt. 1t IS always

man sailed on and on once more.
He was lowering over a little green
wood, and was wondering whether or
not he would have an adventure be
fore he returned to his hollow stump
bungalow, when all of sudden. on
the ground below him Uncle Wiggily
heard sad little voice sobbing.

And the sad little voice went on:
:"Oh, dear! How sad am! What

"Ha! Yes, I will help you!" Uncle
wigsily cried, for just then, down on
the ground, he saw poor little puppy
dog. At first the rabbit gentleman
thought it was Jackie or Peetie Bow

Uncle Wiggily saw that it was a
strange puppy.
what is the matter?" Uncle Wig
gily asked, as he steered his airship
down close beside the little dog, who
was all wet md muddy, and scratched
by briars and brambles. What is the
matter, little puppy?" asked the rab-
bit.
"Oh, everything whined the dog

from my nice home; don't know how

Deafness is caused by an inflamed condi-

you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result. and unless the in

tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine

vein has not yet been determined.
