story before this. He hoped up TO
shake hands with Policeman Num-
Der %. Yes, sir, he did, and just
as bravely as Boy Scout or q
Camp Fire Girl.
How are you?" inquired the
kind blue coated protector Of law
and order, '.how are all the folks at
the Old Bramble Patch?" :
Very well. thank you." answered
the little rabbit. Lady Love has
Uncle Lucky has a touch Of rheu-

Cottontxil has a new baby, and
father a big bill from the Tailor

you don't mean it?" said Police
man 49, But that's too bad or
maybe three bad, because know all
the boys and girls in Turnip Town
will be at the Circus again tonor-
row to see YOU"
Just then, all Of a sudden, an
areoplane came down from the
bright blue sky, and the pilot
shouted;
Come and take a nice sky ride,
Over all the country wide;
Round the clouds and past the sun,
Up to where the stars are spun.
Let us make the Moon Man wink
AS he peeks out through chink."
"If you get me home in time for
supper" answered the bunny boy,
hopping into the aeroplane.
OF course the sky pilot promised,
and away they went, higher and
higher. until Policeman 25 and all
the little boys and girls could see
them no more.
There's mother" by and. by
shouted the Little rabbit and In a
few moments he was in her arms.
Safe at home, dear mother mine.
Where the crimson roses Irvine
All around the kitchen door.
Never 1 would travel more
Only he where all is rest
Home and mother are the best.

Of this purpose when he maintained
his position on the bonus. the tax

One may not do this without In
curing enmitiss. but the evidences Of
public confidence. his upright, down

furiats some Of his opponents. at

instance Of this IL seen in the insin-

President favored the lease Of Muscle

latter's support. The fact Il that
the President did not seek to decide
the matter but wished Congress to
provide for q commission that should
consider the problem from a BUSH

knows this, yet has permitted him
