Mrs. Longears, who was wishing she

Bear gentleman with cake of ice"

Jane.

cool, especially Uncle Wiggily," said
the humming voices.
With that there fluttered down
into the bungalow yard of the rab-
bit gentleman a thousand butter
flies with red, blue, golden and
green wings. There was almost a
cloud of butterflies and as they fit
ted their beautiful wings cool
breeze swept through the bunny's
garden.
How delightful" murmured Mrs.
Longears.
1T is like breath from the sea-
shore" said Nurse Jane.
I'VE have come to make you cool
on this hot day, Uncle Wiggily,' .
whispered the leading butterfly,
who was a gorgeous creature with
wings of black and red with yell
low spots.
THANK you" spoke the rabbit
gentleman. But how can you make
me ccol?"
do you not already feel the cool
breeze we are making in your gar
den?' was the answer I'VE will
flap our wings as the honey bees
fit their wings at the door of the
hive to blow cool air in where the
other bees are making honey. Sit
still and we shall soon make you
very nice and cool"
| SO Uncle Wiggily and his wife
and Nurse Jane sat in the garden

wings, which were like big fans.
In this way they made a breeze
which soon cooled Uncle Wiggily
and he felt so much better.
But who sent you to keep me
cool?" asked the rabbit gentleman
of the gorgeous butterflies.
"It was the Grasshopper whose
broken leg you mended," was the
answer of a butterfly whose wings
were colored purple and blue. "He
saw us flying over the field where
he is waiting in the grass for his
leg to get WELL He told us how hot
you were, Uncle Wiggily, and as we
had nothing to do except fit from
flower to flower, we decided to come
here and make you COOL

Mr. Longears.
And very kind to keep Nurse
Jane and me COOL" said Mrs. Long
ears.
I'VE are happy to help you'll
murmured the butterflies.
So all the remainder of the day
the pretty insects fluttered about
Uncle Wiggily's bungalow yard
fitting their wings to make COO
breezes for the rabbit gentleman
his wife and Nurse Jane and the
little rabbit children.
When the butterflies wings were
weary, Baby Bunty' with Jingle and
Jangle, brought the pretty Great
ures out some sugar and water
which they drink by uncurling thei1
long black tongues.
Slowly the sun went down in the
west and then it wasn't SO hot. II
began to get dark.
f'Will fS1e butterflies stay and
make you cool all nighA, Unkie
Wig?" asked Baby Bunty.
81 think not, my DEAR" answered
Mr.. Longears. Butterflies do not
fit about after dark. I think they
will fly to their homes in the
woods" And this the butterflies
did, but they had made the bunny
cool and at night the West Wind
blew a cooling breeze from Tne

ferred to Tucson, this city loses and Tue
