PRESENTLY HE WOULD POP UP
WITH BIT OF SOD OR MUD TO
ADD TO THAT LITTLE LANDING.
landing, and Peter was quite harm
less The rushes grew tall behind it
and on two sides of it so that it was
well hidden.
So Jerry felt quite safe and quite
forgot that often the time to watch
out sharpest is when one feels safest.
AS for Peter Rabbit, he had nothing
to do but talk, and so it was an easy
matter for him to keep watch at the
same time. He did it without really
knowing that he was doing it. And
it was just as well for Jerry Muskrat
that he did.
Peter was right in the midst Of tell
ing Jerry about Jimmy Skunk and
sight of what seemed nothing more
than a moving shadow just above the
tops of the rushes. Peter didn't finish
what he was saying. The second he
saw that moving shadow he thumped
the ground hard with his hind feet
and sprang headlong in where the
rushes grew thickest.
Jerry Muskrat was sitting on his
little landing. He didn't stop to ask
what the trouble was. He didn't stop
to look around. At the thump of
Peters feet Jerry dived with a splash
into the water and as he did so two
feet with great hooked claws reached
down and just missed him. But for
Peter Rabbit some one would have
had q Muskrat dinner that night. and
that some one was Hooty the Owl.

BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.
An Adventure on Jerry's
LANDING.

The very time you feel most safe,
And see no reason for alarm,
is just the time for keeping guard
Against some unexpected harm.
Jerry Muskrat.
Peter Rabbit sat among the rushes
on the shore of the Laughing Brook
watched jerry Muskrat work. Jerry
was building little landing of rushes
and mud. He had it almost finished.
1t was a little landing, just big
enough for Jerry to sit on comfort
ably, and it was out from the shore
just enough for Jerry to be able to
dive from it into water deep enough
to cover him completely and enable
him to reach still deeper water with
out showing himself
Now, you know Peter Rabbit doesn't
like work. The only work he does is
cutting little paths through the dear
Old Briar-patch, and he wouldn't cut
these if he didn't have to in order to
get about. No, Peter doesn't like work.
He is too happy-go-lucky. He would
rather be uncomfortable than do
little work to make himself comfort
able. and there are many people like
him. Queer. how people can be like
that, isn't it?
But Jerry Muskrat is just the op
posite Jerry likes to work because he
likes to enjoy the things which re-
to work all the time. oh. my no! No
indeed! Jerry is as fond of playing
and of visiting his friends as any one
/ know. But Jerry is too wise to waste
time wishing for a thing he can get
by working for it. He isn't lazy. There
isn't a lazy bone in him.
So all the time he was gossiping
there by his little landing he was
working, while Peter Rabbit sat in
idleness. Jerry would disappear under
water. Presently he would pop up
with a bit of sod or mud to add to
that little landing, and while he put
it where it was most needed he gos-
siped with Peter.
Now Jerry was doing two things at
once-working and talking. Some
folks can talk while they work and
not let one thing interfere with the
other. You see all the little people OF
the Green Forest and the Green Mead
ows, the Smiling Pool and the Old
Pasture are taught to do two things
at once from the time they are big
enough to learn at all. They are
taught that whatever else they may
be doing. working or playing. they
must at all times keep watch for
danger.
But to do three things at the same
time is more than most folks can ac-
complish. 1t was so with Jerry. He
could work and keep watch. He could
work and gossip. But he couldn't work
and gossip and keep watch all at the
In the first place it didn't seem nee
essary. Not since he had begun the
building of that little landing had
Jerry seen the smallest sign of dan
ger. He felt sure that Peter Rabbit
was the only one who had found that

of Brocton, had all but confessed his
love. A decisive understanding to his
proposal was stayed by an Interrupt
ton. The next morning Petrie was
suddenly summoned by q relative In
another town. He had expected to be
gone only few days but his sojourn
ran into months. Twice he wrote Ada.
There came no reply. A third letter
was returned to him marked, IRE
fused" He had later made inquiries
regarding her to learn that she and
her mother had removed to the city,
and he gave her up as lost to him. As
the car stopped for new passengers
Petrie moved to make room for one Of
them. He jostled something In the
seat. A small hand bag. His quick
senses discerned its ownership. He
left the car at the Hrst stop. Like
some miser greedy Of a treasure In.
estimable Randall Petrie hurried into
4 public restaurant and sought its re.
hottest corner. He held something
that had belonged to Adai A fitting
excuse was given to return II to her.
Tts contents would surely give some
clew to her place Of work. her resi-.
dence. He opened the hand bag. A
purse showed the edge Of Q card In q
little pocket. Petrie drew It out.
"She remembered-she has kept that
oil this timei" ne exulted. 'Then-"
Words failed him. His heart beat
nightly. He had brought to light
q photograph Of himself he had once
given to Ada. He fingered over several
little packages and Christmas cards,
then an envelope, unstamped and I'M.
sealed, addressed to "Miss Laura
Deane. Brocton." Instantly Petrie re-
called a close friend Of Ada. It was
no prying instinct that caused him to
withdraw the enclosure. One line
perused, his dazzled eyes refused to
leave the written pages.
"Your discovery that It was not
Randall Petrie. but a relative Of his
name who led such wild, evil life.

to forget, comes too late to bridge the
mistaken past, but, OH Laura! how
can I ever repair the injustice donef
