Johnny Chuck Keeps Watch.

Alas, thot as 1ce groW are must

Johnny Chuck was sitting up very
straight on his doorstep. You know
Johnny can sit very straight when he
wants TO- Johnny Chuck was keep
ing watch He was watching for pos
sible danger. OF course it is nothing
unusual for Johnny Chuck TO sit up
and keep watch for danger. He does
it more or less every day. The queer
thing about it this time was that he
wasn't doing it for himself or for any
Of his family. | don't suppose he
would have admitted that he was
keeping watch. But he was, and he
was doing it for a stray baby OF one
Of his neighbors.
Just little way from nm was
Peter Rabbits favorite patch oi
sweet clover. At least it used to be
Peters favorite patch Ihat was De5
fore Johnny and Polly ChucN hau @
moved over to the edge Of the dear
Ola Briar-patch, Since then Peter
had not been near that patch OF
sweet clover. But just now one OF
Peters family was there. 1t was one
OF Peters babies. He looked just
exactly like Peter, only, OF course
verv. very much smaller. In tact ne
was altogether too small TO be out
side of the dear Old Briar-patc5.
Johnny Chuck knew this. He xnew
that that little scamp had run away,
or had wandered away, and 1t "or-
ried him. That was why ne was
keeping watch. He couldn't pear 20
think OF harm coming to tha1 I'Ho-
cent little stray Rabbit.
"If that were one Of my babies
would know what to do said JOHNNY,
10 himself. II would go out there ana
send him home as fast as ms NIUE
legs could take him. But II l sho"
myself to that little scamp out thefe'
I'm sure he Will be so frightened that
he will be just as likely to run IN

him. don't suppose he has ever seer seen
anybody but his father ard mother, ~
Perhaps nothing Will happen 10
him. Probably when he has eaten
enough clover he will scamper bach
TO the dear Old Rriar-patch. II JuS'
