Lnere 90 AGAIN. i mean MS Din
nose twinkled- Ask and see who Il
IS" vent on Uncle WiggiIy.
So Nurse Jane asked, and as she
talked through the telephone. Uncle
I Wiggily heard her say:
@Oh, that's too bad Oh, I'm so sOrryl
7 Oh. I wonder what can do to help
Z Wait, III ask Uncle Wiggily-

Z had2 Has anything happenedT' asked
Mr. Longears all excited ike.
Just q moment and I'll tell you
Z spoke Nurse Jane Then, through the
] telephone. she said: Now don't worry.
I I'm sure everything win be all right"
Z Then. turning TO the bunny uncle,
I the muskrat lady said-
4 That was Mrs. Twistytail. the pig
Z lady. Her husband. his name Is Archi-
I bald. you know
I Yes. I know exclaimed Uncle
/ Wiggiiy. Didn't I take him some hot
I turnip salad. and make his cold bet
kter? What's the matter with him
now"
! "Oh. he can't Sleep said Nurse Jane
I He Just lies awake nights. and losses
and twists on his straw bed and he
Z keeps Curly and Fioppy awake and
( Mrs. Twistytail also, and Il certainly
! IS too bad Mrs Twistytaii was tell
{ ing me about it. and 7 said maybe you
could think OF something TO make her
husband 90 TO sleep"
Maybe I can said Uncle Wiggily.
Anyhow. III try" he added kindly. 7
really s'pose, though. that Dr.. Postum
would be the best But as he Is away
now. III do what can I'll go over to
see Mr. Twistytail and try to think OF
something 10 make him sleep"
So. giving his pink nose a twinkle
or two TO make sure It wouldn't freeze,
Uncle Wiggily started out in the cold,
with his tall silk hat over his ears.
E1anrf1 hn r-rrf-r5rr-nH -
hoped along over the fields and
through the woods. What VIII make
3Ir Twistytail sleep2"
And just then Uncle WiggiIy passed
under a big pine tree He smslled the
sweet balsan1 smell OF the pine needles
and he heard the wind softly whisper
ing through the branches, and It was
just as II the breeze sang a lullaby:
sleep, sleep. soft and low.
While the gentle zyphers blow"
@Ha, That's IT." cried the bunny.
"TT make M Twistytafl a pine pill
low When he puts his head on that,
and smells the pine balsam he'll drop
right off 10 sleep like baby I'll do
It. I'll make him pine pillow"
So Uncle Wiggily gathered q lot OF
the soft pine needles and stuffed
them in his mittens until he could get
Mrs. Twistytail TO make a pillow for
them. With his mittens off his paws
and with the mittens stuffed full OF
the sweet, pine twiEs. Uncle Wiggily
once more hoped toward the pig gen.
tleman's house
He was almost there. and he was
beginning TO think ne would have no
adventure that day when ail OF a sud
Den out from the bushes jumped the
bad old Snoozer-
.'Ha, This time I think 7 have your
howled the unpleasant chap You
fooled me on my slippery slide. but
now I have you have you and .
-um-ah-I am-Oh. what was 60
ing-to doZ- said the Snoozer, speak !
ing more and more slowly and lazy
like. s-going-to-do some /
thing-to you-but-I-I VIII I've
got TO 20 TO sleep right here"
And then and there he curled up In /
a snow bank and went to Sleep and .
he didn't hurt Uncle Wiggily at all
at must be these pine branches"
said the bunny as he looked at his j
green-stuffed mittens. I'm feeling \
bit ike slumbering myself. Guess I'd .
better hurry on before I fall asleep 4
like the Snoozer-
Then he hoped on to Mr. Twisty- :
tafTs house and when the pig lady
had made a pine pillow from the
why Mr. Archibald Twistytail went
TO sleep as nicely as you please and
so0n he was all we'll
Wasn't that Eood2 And. II the tabby
