would stop and peer in. Bowser, on the
other hand, didn't bother to listen or
| look. He went along the edge of the
dear Old iar-patch with his nose To
| the ground, SHINING and shining. When
ever he found little opening where he
could poke his head In he would do this
and sniff louder.
At the entrance to one Of Peter Rab-
bits little paths he would spend con-
siderable time smiling.
BY the time they had gone COM
pletely round the dear Old Briar-p patch
Farmer Browns Boy had discovered
Peter and thought he had caught a
giinnpse of Mrs. Peter. but he wasn't
sure. Bowser, on the other hand, had
discovered for a certainty that Peter
Rabbit was at home. that Mrs. Peter
was at home, and that there was third
and younger Rabbit living there. His
nose had been better than Farmer
Browns Boys eyes and ears. That
nose of Bowser's had also discovered
that Reddy Fox had been around the
Old Briar- r-patch. but his trail was too
old to be worth following.
But Bowser was interested in that
new young Rabbit, and wanted to work
his way into the dear Old Briar-patch
But the briars made him yelp and back
out. Still. he wouldn't leave the place
where he found the scent strongest.
Finally Farmer Browns Boy went over
there to see what 1t was that was inter-
esting Bowser so much. He had a stick
in his hand. He knew from Bowser's
actions that there was some one In that
Briar patch not far away. So presently
he threw the stick into the dear Old
Briar- patch to see II he could make
some one run. The stick landed very
near where Whitley was squatting. hid
cen by tangle of leaves It frightened
and he bounded out and along
one of Peter Rabbits private little
paths. Farmer Browns Boy caught
glimpse of him and rubbed his eyes.
"Bowser." said he. did / see Alright?
Did you see white Rabbit run them"
Bowser barked excitedly, as much as
10 say he did
Farmer Browns Boy once more be-
gan going around the dear Old Briar-
patch. watching for another glimpse of
that white Rabbit When he saw it the
second time he was satisfied that his
syes had not deceived him.
