already being offered for clips prove.

Little vttortarfor Bedtime!
BY THORNTON V BUROB63 - 1
Jimmy Sknnk Meets thej Stranger.
When at last Unc Billy Possum a-ot
safely back to his hollow Area he knew.
of course, that Sammy Jay and Blacky
tne crow and Peter Rabbit were not
crazy, aa he had so often said they
were. Anyway, if they were whwhe
must be himself, for hadn't he seen
the very stranger Sammy and Blacky
had told about? If Unc Billy couldn't
believe what they said he felt sure he
could believe his own eyes. He Just
knew his own eyes couldn't fool hirn
like that. !
It made Unc Billy shiver every time
he thought of that stranger he had
seen deep in the Green Forest by the
pond of Paddy the .Beaver. He was
so big!" And he had such great cruel
looking claws!
"Ah Ah hope he can't climb trees !
said Unc' Billy. '
Now Unc' Billy had spoken aloud,
for he didn't know that any one was
near. So he jumped almost out of his
skin when a voice said:- i
"Who is it you hope, can't climb
trees, "UnC Billy?"
Unc' Billy looked down to find his
old friend Jimmy Skunk looking up at
him. He hesitated a few minutes. He
knew that Jimmy thought that Sammy
Jay and Blacky the Crow were crazy,
or else were telling untrue atorles.
and he didn't like to tell Jimmy what
he had seen himself. You see he didn't
want to be laughed at or thought crazy.
But he felt that he had just got to tell
some one, and so finally he told Jimmy
Skunk all about It. Jimmy looked at
Unc Billy very sharply, but Unc' Billy
was so very much in earnest that
Jimmy had to believe that Unc Billy
really thought he had seen this terrible
stranger. Jimmy never had heard' of
such a stranger in the Green Forest.
He couldn't quite believe there was
one even after Unc Billy had said so,
But he dldn t like to say so. You see
Unc' Billy was an old friend, and he
didn't want to hurt his feelings. -"I
think I'll go up to the pond of
Paddy the Beaver and see if I can see
anything of this stranger," said
Jimmy.
"Ah wouldn't if Ah was yo'. Brer
Skunk! 'Deed Ah wouldn't! Yo don.'
know what he may do to yo" with those
great claws. Mah goodness, Ah cer-
t'nly does hope he can't climb trees!"
Unc' Billy looked so anxious that
Jimmy had to turn his head so as to
hide a smile.
"I'll go ask him if he climbs trees.
and then I'll come let you know, Unc'
Billy." said he.
Now, line Billy knew that Jimmy
Skunk is afraid of nothing and nobody
unless it is Farmer Brown's boy when
he has his terrible gun, but he also
knew that Jimmy had never seen and
had no idea of this great stranger who
had given him such a fright, and he
Couldn't beMeve that Jimmy would dare
ask him any. questions. He watched
Jimmy march off into the- Green For
est and he grinned Just a little.
"Brer Skunk never hurries, but Ah
reckons i Ah'U see him hurry right
smart If he meets up with that strang
er," muttered Unc' Billy.
Jimmy Skunk went on until he came
to the . pond of Paddy the Beaver,
which you know is deep in the Green
Forest. Jimmy was tired and he sat
down to rest. It was very still there.
Paddy the Beaver'was nowhere to be
seen. Neither was the stranger. Jimmy
grew sleepy. He made up his mind
that he would take a nap before, he
looked any farther, and he started to
find. a nice soft spot to curl up on
when he heard a heavy step behind
him. Jimmy whirled about, and there
just coming out of the bushes was the
stranger of whom Sammy Jay and
Blacky the Crow and Unc Billy Pos
sum, had told, and he was Just as big
and .just 'as black and had just such
great cruel claws as they had said.
"I don't know who you are, but I'm
very glad to meet you,", said Jimmy
Skunk politely.
