bear, ought really to have been TAX

hollow tree or warm den. But she
had teased so to be allowed to re
main up until after Christmas and
New Years that her father and
mother had let her.
"But remember, Beckie,' said
Mr.. Stubtail, yawning slecpily, "af

Uncle Wiggily, and the bunny rab-

to eat for all winter if they had

Neddic and Beckic were going to
take their long winter sleep after
New Years Day. Of course, in ease
the weather became warm they
might wake up now and agaim-at

So this is why Becbie was not yet

for Uncle Wiggily's hollow stump
bungalow, carrying her best and
newest Christmas doll with her.
As it happened, Nurse Jane had
to 20 away that day without sweep
ing and dusting the bungalow. And,
as it happened, Uncle Wiggily fell
asleep in his easy chair near the
fire soon after Nurse Jane went out.
So when Bcckic came along with her
doll there was the rabbit uncle
asleep and the bungalow needed
dusting and sweeping.

Beckie to herself, as she saw Uncle
Wiggily with his eyes closed and his
pink nose twinkling. "I'll sweep
