paper. Just as he was giving up In de-
spair his eye fell on the neatly ironed
handkerchief his mother had given
him as he was starting out. He
picked it up and smoothing it on his
good knee licked his pencil and print
ed on the spotless linen:
Bob Kirby has hurt his knee and
can't move. He is lying in the snow
near Miller's place. Help!!"
Now, Brother Rabbit" and he
pulled his little companion out of the
sack.
The next thing Brother Rabbit knew
he was skipping off over the snow
with linen handkerchief tied firmly
around his body. Now, he had been
bred in captivity and the outside world
was strange to him. He hoped and
skipped in great astonishment. finding
things rather cold and lonesome. and
the last his master saw Of him was
his disappearing into the woods.
After that it was hard to keep up
courage. but Bob kept calling as loud
as he could.
"S'opse that rabbit gets lost in the
woods" he thought. "S'pose nobody
finds him and I have to stay here all
day and all night and all Sunday and
! all Sunday night" And just then Bob
needed that handkerchief badly. as he
was so upset by this sad thought
but we won't tell on him,
1t was getting colder and colder and
Bob began to wonder what his mother
would say when they brought him In
stiff and stark. With all his strength
he filed his lungs and gave a great
long halloo. Was that an answering
shout or only an echo? He hardl,
dared to hope. but he yelled again ant

It was very cold and stili and II was

thought. "and the folks at home will

there in the snow meant death and
scarcely anyone was likely to come
