Uncle Wiggily stayed back in
the kitchen.
women folks. whether they're
muskrats or bears, are funny
thought the bunny. lust as If IL
made any difference about cream
puffs. Still, | suppose Nurse Jane
wants to show how we'll she looks
after me and what good things she
gives me to eat-cream puffs
among them. They are good. l
wonder how they are made|'
AS Uncle Wiggily said this he
happened to see, hanging over the
kitchen sink, a recipe book that
told how to take spots out of polka
dot dresses and how to mark the
crosses on hot buns for Easter
Maybe it tells how to make
cream puffs," thought the bunny
gentleman. "If it does, and Nurse
Jane and Mrs. Stubtail stay in the
parlor talking, l could, just for a
surprise, make the puffs myself.
Then | could wink at Nurse Jane
she could come out and get them
and mass them to Mrs. Stubtall
with the tea, and everything "oula
be lovely. I'll try it.
So Uncle Wiggily looked in the
cook book to see how TO MAKE
cream puffs. 1t was quite hard,
and when TIE bunny had. finished
reading he leaned against the
table. A.
~ don't believe I'd better try to
make those cream puffs," thought
Mr. Ionpears. "You have to mix
up n lot of flour and eggs, and you
have to let them puff up in a hot
oven. And then you have TO slce
them open with q knife and put
the sweet cream inside-Oh, It's
a lot of work. I WONDER
Just then Uncle Wiggily happen
cd to see the rubber plant standlns
in the kitchen where Nurse Jane
had been washing the thick, green

bunny. eff I could take some OF
the leaves from the rubber plant.
which are good to eat. and pun
or blow them up like circus bal
looms. 7 could fill the inside with
cream. and they'd be as good as
il baked. I'll do III a.,
Uncle Wiggily cut off some
,eaves from the rubber plant which
had q lot of extra ones. Then the
rabbit gentleman cut a sllt IN me
edge of leaf, and IN TINS hoie ne
nut piece. of macaroni, when was
hollow like a pipe stem. Puttlng
his lips to the other end OF lhe
hollow macaroni stem, Uncle WIZ"
pilv blew as hard as he could blow.
In moment the plant lear, being
rubber, puffed up like little pal
"Fine," cried the bunny gentle
man Now I'll just slip in some
squared cream and we'll nave
cream puffs as good as never was.'
TTncle Wiggily blew up some
more of the thick green leaves OF
the rubber plant. Then he mixed
soma whipped cream and sugar
in a bowl while Nurse Jane anu
Mrs. Stubtail were talking.
Uncle Wiggily put the white,
sweet, frothy cream inside the
green leaf cream puffs, and then
he made some tea. He put every
thing on a tray and brought IL ~
the parlor where Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy
was entertaining the lady bear. /,
