Sleepy Time Story About a Mys-
ferrous Little Creature.
THE GOOD EASTER RABBIT.
What He Discovered In the Woods and
How Faithfully He Performed q
Kindly Dssd-Rswardsd by . Fairy
oussn-orisin Of colorsd Eggs.
Tonight, said Uncle Ben to little Ned
and Polly Ann, / am going to tell you
AN EASTER STORY.

The little folks In Germany believe
that the Easter rabbit lays the beauti-
fully colored eggs that they get every
Easter.
Very fond Of him are the little ones,
and they listen with delight to the
many charming stories that are told
about the Easter bunny.
One. of them Is as follows: Once upon
q time, In the days when fairies were
everywhere and when, II you only
knew how to gain their good win, the
wild creatures Of the wood would talk
to you and do you many great favors,
there was a beautiful and kind heart
ed rabbit whom every one loved.
One day, passing through the wood
land, the little rabbit saw a nest filed
with eggs.
One by one the other wood creatures
had passed 1t with merely q glance.
but the rabbit said:
"What pity! The eggs may get
cold, so that the little chicks inside
win never come out Of the shells"
So the rabbit cuddled down over the
eggs to keep them warm with his soft
fur until the mother hen should come
back.
But the hen never came. She had
been snatched up by q hungry hawk.
So her little chicks were orphans when
thew camo out NJ tho sholl
This they did one bright Easter
morning. AS the chicks were very
hungry the good rabbit scurried around
to get food for them.
The rabbit watched over them until
they were old enough to take care of
themselves.
The fairy queen wished to reward
bunny for his goodness. and SO she
said:
'More beautiful than the eggs of the
hen shall be the eggs which you, little
rabbit, shall bring to all good children
on Easter morning"
For the rabbit loved children, and
the queen knew that 1t would be the
greatest Joy to bring happiness to the
little ones.
And so when Easter again came
round the rabbit hoped up and down
the land, leaving In the silence and
dark Of the Easter night gifts Of beau
tifully colored eggs for the children.
The children learned to leave little
nests Of straw or leaves on the ground
or hang little baskets where the rabbit
could find them, and, now. unless
little German child had been very, very
naughty he always finds something In
the nest when he wakens on Easter
morning.
But no one has ever seen the Easter
rabbit.
