Uncle Wiggily Longears and Nurse
h~ousekeeper, started out from their
hollow stump bungalow one day, and
paid a visit to Mrs. Twistytail, the
piggie lady.
q! have something nice to show you"
said Mrs. Twistytail, as she let them
in. It's the cutest little baby pig you
eve saw"
Whose is it?" asked Nurse Jane
Mine, Of course answered Mrs.
Twistytail. land her name is Squeakie.
| named her after Squeakie -Eakie, the
little cousin mouse of Jollie and Jillie
Longtail. And really my .piggie baby
has a very squeaky voice, but she may
get over it. Come and look at her"
Sc Nurse Jane and Uncle Wiggily
looked at Baby Squeakie in her bed
or nice, clean straw, and Uncle Wig
gily asked:
THE idea! OF course not! Isn't that
just like a rabbit MANI" cried Nurse
Jane to Mrs. Twistytail with a laugh.
Then the muskrat lady clapped the
legs of the piggie baby together and
she sang a little verse.
"Patty-cake! Patty-cake, Baker-man,

Will Squeakie eat it? l should say yes!
I'VE ought to have a patty-cake for
little Squeakie," said Uncle Wiggily.
\ That's so. we ought; and I'll bake
her one" spoke Nurse Jane. Come on,
Wiggie. Wen go to the hollow stump
bungalow and I'll get out the patty
cake tins and bake some nice little
cakes for Baby Squeakie Twistytail."
That will be fine" cried the bunny
uncle with a twinkle of his pink nose.
But when Uncle Wiggily and Nurse
Jane reached the bungalow the musk
rat lady found that all her p~atty-cake
tins were so old and full of holes-not
having been used In a long while-that
they would never do for baking cakes
in.
'Tl have to have some new, shiny
patty-cake tins from the five and ten
cent store" she said to Uncle Wiggily,
I'm go get them for you," offered
Uncle Wiggily. Then you can bake
some cakes for Squeakie."
Off to the five and ten-cent store
hurried Uncle Wiggily. On the way he
saw Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow, the
puppy dogs, skating on the ice Of
the frozen duck pond.
Come on, Uncle Wiggily.' cried
