politely.
Thank you, no." answered the
muskrat lady housekeeper. I must
set my bread. for I am going TO

So Uncle Wiggily, with his glasses
perched across his pink. twinkling
nose, started hopping along by him
self. Through the woods and over
the fields ne went, and il kept get
ting darker and darker. But still the
bunny rabbit gentleman did not
mind that.
Il shall soon be at Grandpa Coos

Uncle Wiggily TO himself.
He was crossing field near a lit

bunny. "and can't see 20 pick
them up. I have my fashlight with
me, and II you would be so kind
as 10 look I would be obliged TO
you"
"Of course I'll help you. Uncle
Wiggily," said the kind voice, and
the bunny was trying his best TO
remember where he had heard II
before. But he couldn't recall il.
However, Mr.. Longears took out his
hashhght, for. in spite of the new
moon, il was dark down on the
grass.
The bunny's hashlight was a bot
tie filled with lightning bugs, and by
the light of these little creatures
/ sparkling amid the shadows the lost
glasses were soon found. When he
had them back on his pink, twin
king nose Uncle Wiggily looked to
see who had helped him. and he saw
Floppy Twistytail. the piggie boy.
"Oh. it's you, is it?" laughed Mr..

Floppy laughed also, and said he
was very glad he happened 10 be

bugs now and then to see the way.
AS he reached the green moss house
where the Twistytail pigs lived, he
heard through an open window Mrs.
Twistytail say:
But, my dear Sqeakie. haven't
any milk for your bottle! / am sorry,
but all the milk is gone, and it is so
late L can't get any more at the
store. Go TO sleep like a nice little
pig baby! Please do"
II can't. I wants my bottle! I
wants my milk" cried Squeakie, the
baby pig.
But I can't get you any milk"
grunted Mrs. Twistytail. land you
are keeping US all awake. Squeakie.
Go to sleep"'
II can't. 1 wants my bottle Of
milk!" cried Squeakie. Il do wants
it,
"Ha! Here is where I can help"
said Uncle Wiggily. II just saw, by
the fash Of my lightning bugs, some
milkweed plants growing here. I'll
squeeze some Of their milk into
Squeakie's bottle for her. Mrs. Twist
tail. and your little baby will take
that and go to sleep"
"Oh, how kind of youl" said the
pig lady.
We'll. Floppy was kind to me-"
said the bunny. SO he gathered some
milkweed, squeezed out the juice into
Squeakie's bottle, and when the lit
tie pig baby began to drink she
closed her eyes, said "Goo-goo and
went fast to sleep!
Then Uncle Wiggily hoped some
