Suspicion Is a horrid thing, And never happiness will bring.
 Mother West Wind.

Having made up his mind to take that little hurt cub home, Farmer Browns Boy wasted no time about it, Cubby was following him, any way, and it was quite clear that Mother Bear had deserted him for the time being. She had been frightened away. Cubby was walk ing on three feet, holding up the little paw which had been caught in the roots and which was now badly swollen. So Farmer Browns Boy stopped and held out his hand 10 Cubby.
 Now, although Cubby was anx- ious not to be left alone, he was still 8 bit doubtful of this strange creature who had set him free and whom he had been following. So it was quite a few minutes before he would come near enough to even sniff at the fingers extended to him. All the time Farmer Browns Boy talked to him soothingly. By and by he reached over and tickled
 
 liked. So it was only few mo- ments before Farmer Browns Boy once more had Cubby in his arms and had started for home.
 Now, never before in all his life had Cubby been carried. When he was too littel to follow Mother Bear about he had simply been left at home. So having free ride was a new experience for Cubby and he liked it. For the time being he all most forgot that sore paw. His twinkling little eyes took in every thing over Farmer Browns Boys shoulders. As long as they were in the Old Pasture things were not particularly strange, but when they left the Old Pasture to cross the Green Meadows Cubby's eyes open ed very wide. All his short life he had lived in the Green Forest. New CT had he been where he could see any distance. You see, even up in the old pasture the bushes were so high and thick that it was almost like the Green Forest.
 When Cubby saw the great open spaces of the Green Meadows he had a funny feeling. This world did mt look right at all. He was actual ly afraid. You know, when things look very. very strange, you often have a queer feeling. All this was so very strange that Cubhy kept perfectly still and Farmer Browns Boy had no trouble at all.
 Across the Green Meadows they went and then up the Long Lane As they drew near the house Bow ser the Hound came trotting out to meet them. Now, Cubby was so much interested Tn the barn and the henhouse and the house and the fences and all the strange things

 T wonder if you would make me cup of coffee, Sally" she began. and then stopped talking and made queer little clucking sound in her throat.
 Sally was sitting on the edge of the bed, winding long yellow satin ribbon around one of her slender legs. And upon the ribbon dozens and dozens of tiny gilt bells were sewed. They tinkled merrily as the ribbon moved under Sally's slender little fingers.
