BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
By THORNTON W. BURGESS
“JENNY WREN’S BIG COUSIN
ETER RABBIT never will forget his
surprise when Jenny Wren asked
‘him one morning if he had seen anything of her big cousin. Peter hesitated. As a mutter of fact he couldn’t
-think of any big cousin of Jenny Wren.
All the cousins Peter knew ‘anything
about were very near Jenny’s own
size.
:
Now Jenny Wren is one of the most
impatient .small persons in the world.
“Well, well, well, Peter, have: you
lost your tongue?” she chattered, “Can’t
you answer a simple question without
taking aH day about it? Have you
seen anything of my big cousin?”
“You nmeedn’t be so cross about it
if I am slow,” replied Peter, “I’m just
“Il Saw Him Only Yesterday on the
Edge of the Old Pasture.”
trying to think who your big cousin
is. I guess, to be quite honest, I don’t
know him.”
“Don’t know him! Don’t know
him!” sputtered Jenny. “Of course
you’ know him. You can’t help but
know him. I mean Brownie the
Thrasher.”
In his surprise, Peter fairly jumped
right off the ground. “What’s that?”
he exclaimed, “Since when was
Brownie the Thrasher related to the
Wren family?”
“Ever since there have been any
Wrens and Thrashers,’ retorted Jenny. “Brownie belongs to one branch
of the family and I belong to another, and that makes him my second
cousin. It certainly is surprising how
little some folks. know.”
“But I have always supposed he
belonged to the Thrush family,” protested Peter, “He certainly looks like
a Thrush.”
“Looking like one doesn’t. make him
one,” snapped Jenny. “By this time
you ought to have learned that you
never can judge anybody just by
looks. It always makes me provoked
to hear Brownie called the Brown
Thrush, There isn’t a drop of Thrush
blood in him. But you haven’t answered my question yet, Peter Rabbit; I want to know if he’s here yet.”
“Yes,” said Peter. “I saw him yesterday on the edge of the Old PasISLANO OF

great Amazon River, lies

ture. He was fussing about in the
bushes and on the ground and jerking
that long tail of his up and down and
sidewise as if he didn’t know what
to do with it. I’ve never seen anybody twitch his tail around the way
he does.”
Jenny Wren giggled. ‘‘That’s just
like him,” said she. “It is because he
thrashes his tail around so much that
he is called.the Thrasher. I suppose
he was wearing his new spring suit.”
“I don’t know whether or not it
was new, but it was mighty good looking,” replied Peter. “I just love that
beautiful reddish brown of his back,
wings and tail, and it certainly does
set off his white and buff waistcoat
with its dark streaks and spots. You
must admit that anyone seeing him
dressed so like the Thrushes is to be
excused for thinking him a Thrush.”

QUESTION BOX
By ED WYNN..
_ The Perfect Fool
Dear Mr, Wynn:
I am a poor woman and sell doughnuts for a living. I charge three cents
apiece for the doughnuts, One man
says he will buy a dozen doughnuts
every day if I will take off one cent
from the price of each doughnut, for
the hole. I can’t afford to sell them
cheaper than three cents and would
like him for a customer. What shall
I do?
Sincerely,
OLIVE OYLE.
Answer—The next time you see him
tell him you have decided to give him
one cent for each hole when he returns the holes,
Dear Mr. Wynn:
I am in love with a young lady and
I thought she loved me too. Last night
I called at her house and her sister
told me-my girl was not at home. I
happened to look on the rack in the
hall and I saw my girl’s hat hanging
there, so I knew she was home. I
never want to see her again. Am’ I
right?
Sincerely,
BOB O. LINK.
Answer—You are acting silly, Because you saw her hat in the hall you
say she must have been home, In that
ease, if you saw your girl’s stockings
in the wash you’d swear she was in
the laundry.
Dear Mr. Wynn:
My father told me that a “window”
and a “widow” were just the same.
How can that be?
Yours truly,
FRANK LEE SPEAKING.
Answer—Your father’s advice is
very good. He means that when you
get near either of them, you want to
look out,.
Dear Mr. Wynn:
A girl friend of mine was married
-yesterday and of course I went to the
wedding. Some relatives brought their
baby to the wedding and all during
the ceremony the baby cried. It seemed
to spoil the whole thing. I expect to
be married very shortly and I want
to know how I can keep the guests
from bringing babies to the wedding.’
What shall I do?
Sincerely,
N. GAGED.
Answer—When you have your wedding invitations printed just have
printed in one corner of the invitations—“‘No Babies Expected.”

Ant Army at Work
There is a South American ant
which proceeds to a cocoa plantation
in army formation. Each insect stands
on a leaf and slowly and carefully
cuts out an almost perfect circle, and
back against they march in procession,
each with the circle of leaf over the
head like an umbrella. Back to their
home, the ants. masticate the leaf
pieces and place them in prepared
beds. A peculiar fungus soon grows
up in these gardens upon which the
ants feed, seemingly their only food.
