little Mrs. Peter stole away through

side. There she hesitated. Since. as
little Miss Fuzzytail, she had come to
the dear Old Briar-patch to become
Mrs. Peter. she had seldom been more

was a home body, was little Mrs.
Peter. and the Great World outside
the dear Old Briar-patch seemed a
very terrible place.
But her dear Peter must be saved
and whatever was done to save him
she must do. She drew a long breat h

Says Peter Rabbit This 10 clear:
He 10 not brave who knows NO fear
Peter Rabbit is right on this point
Yes. sir. he is exactly right. There Is
no bravery in doing a thing you are
not afraid to do. Deeds which often
seem very brave are really not brave
at all. because the one who does them
has no fear whatever. The truly brave
deed is that which is done by one who
is afraid. but overcomes that fear.
The greater the fear of the one who
does q brave deed. the hraver that
deed 10.
There is no one more timid than
little Mrs. Peter Rabbit. Yet Mrs
Peter has done some very brave
things She did one OF them when she
discovered Reddy Fox just inside the
dear Old Briar-patch lying in wait for
Peter to come home. You remember
that Reddy had hidden there just be-
fore sun-up. As he crawled into his
hiding place he saw and heard moth
ing Of little Mrs. Peter. He knew that
probably she was somewhere in the
dear Old Briar-patch and he knew
that she was quite safe there. So
Reddy did not give her another
thought. His thoughts were all of
pering home just at sun-up.
But il Reddy didn't see little Mrs
Peter. she saw him. She happened to
be sitting under q 'bramble- just
a little way from where Reddy crawl
ed in to hide. Mrs. Peters heart al
most stopped beating with fright. For
q long time she didn't move. She
watched Reddy make himself as COM
Portable as possible and then begin his
watch for the home coming Of Peter.
She understood exactly what Reddy
was about.
He knows Peter is away from the
dear Old Briar-patch and that proba-
bly, he will come home just about sun
up, and that he will come from that
direction" thought she. And he will,
too. Oh. dear! What shall I do? What
can / do? How can j warn Peter? He
will be caught and eaten right before
my eyes! Oh. dear! Oh. dear"
Poor little Mrs. Peter Rabbit was in
a terrible state OF mind. She felt that
she must do something to save Peter.
but for a while she was too fright.

come home was drawing nearer and

were beginning to retreat. Taking
