"Nurse Jane said Uncle Wiggily

front steps of his hollow stump bunga
low, 81 may be bit late returning
home this evening. Don t wait supper
for me-
"Where are you going asked the
muskrat lady hOusekeeper.
81 am going to the movies with
Grandpa Goosey Gander,' answered the
! rabbit gentleman. "I'H very likely
stay to supper with him, and so | won I
come home until after dark. May !
have the pleasure of bringing you any

"Just few candles, - answered Miss
Fuzzy Wuzzy.
"Candles9 When we have electric
light and gas in our bungalow ex-
claimed Uncle Wiggily. "Why can

"You never can tell when the gas

"I1l bring you some" promised
| Uncle Wiggily, with low and polite
b6w of his tall silk hat.
Then away he went, hopping over

would have fine time with Grandpa
| Goosey at the movies.
AS Uncle Wiggily hoped across a

pa Gooscy, the bunny gentleman saw Il
number of large, round yellow thugs,
Pumpkins, as sure as | have

laugh "What fine lot of pies those
pumpkins will makc | must take one
to Nurse Jane, as well as some, candles,
when ! 20 home. Yes, III take her Il
large pumpkin. ~
| Thinking of this made Uncle Wiggily
remember the candles. 50 he lropped to
the store and bought half ii dozen, put
ting them up inside his tall silk hat
| where they would be safe
| And now for nice visit with Grand
pa Goosey," said Uncle. Wiggily, "and
after we sit about and Talk bit, and
eat Il bit we II go to the movies
The bunny gentleman soon reached
the pen Of his feathercd friend.
"IIello Grandpa Gooscy!' callet
Uncle Wiggily, and as lac took off hi'
hat, out fell the bundle of candles.
| "My' goodness! What's that =
quaeked Grandpa Gooscy IN surprise.
'Oh, just some candies for NursS

Don't be worred-the re onlS

them in his hat again, and Nt his haf

Uncle Wiggily and Grandpa Goosel
played Scotch checkers for time, thel
they had something to eat and in tht
evening they went to the movies. They
had fine time and laughed at th'
funny pictures. The only thing tha
happened was that when Uncle Wig

But in the end it was good thin:
