To their native bogs. j
The frogs are busy fishermen, !
And keep the mice supplied, !
And so these little meadow folk I
The fruits of toU divided ' j

A quaint old frogman has the mill,;
And grinds the mousey flour, I
Because, of course, in Tlnytown j
They have no water power. I
The ferry's run by froggies, .top.
And off the mice men go
To sell their fruit and vegetables
: To city mice, you know.;
The court of law's maintained by mice,
For this is drier stuff.
Presided over by that wise .
And learned mouse, Judge Snuff. "
The mice men own a stage coach,, too.

trip to Forest Village and
The stylish Forest Lakes. - ;

The frogs spend their vacations there f
And have no end of fun.
These towns are wisely managed !

And nowhere will you find a' more
Contented wee community
Than Tlnytown and Lily Pad,

How Rabbit
Lost Most
Of His Tail
ONCE upon a time Jack Rabbit had
ears about the size of Brother Pos
sum and a tail as long as the next fel
low. He'd have had them yet if he had
not 'been such a curious chap. He. al
ways was listening . and ' listening to
other, folks' affairs, sitting with his tail
all buried up under him and his little
bright eyes snapping like coals. .
Whenever there was talking or quar-
- reling ,or sin ring: there was little Jack
Rabbit. Pshaw, but he was a busyboay.
sure enough. He even went listening
around two-legs' houses and more han
once nearly got caught and popped 'into
a pie. But he always managed to run
pretty fast and after a while folks really
got used to the little chap sitting on his
hind paws taking in all the news. The
creatures, too, didn't pay any more at
tention to' him that if he'd been a tree
stump. - K . , . -
"That's only little Jack Rabbit 1" they'd
say to one another, and go, right on with
their speechifying.
But sot satisfied with all the things
he heard in the woods and in the village
where he visited. Jack started staying
awake at nights and trying to hear what
the goblins and fairies were up to. For
many, many nights he listened to their
secrets and first thing you know he be
gan trying to put into practice the fairy
charms and spells he had overheard. One
day he met old . Mr. Hedgehog. Mr.
Hedgehog - Vstshed him good day ' and
asked him what all the news was.
Instead of answering Jack stopped
short and twinkled his whiskers. -
Abra cabra dabra cob ! . mumbled
. Jack Rabbit, and pop! away- new Mr.
Hedgehog as invisible as air. He didn't
know he was invisible, either, and while
Jack Rabbit laughed and laughed all the
creatures ran around telling one another
that a ghost was in the woods that
talked like Henry Hedgehog, and poor
Mrs. Hedgehog, when she heard her hus
band's voice and bumped into something
she couldn't see in the parlor, fell into
r a swoon from which the entire village
could not arouse her.' -""
Now it happened that a little fairy
. chanced by and heard all the confusion
nd,: putting two and. two together, de-
- elded that someone was practicing magic.
And this conclusion once reached it
was not hard for her to find the culprit.
Changing Henry Hedgehog to his visible
self again she hurried back to her com
panions and told them of Jack Rabbit's
pran. - ; . -f ,
The fairies, were very angry and re
solved to teach Jack a lesson. And a
little goblin, who was listening to the
fairies, on his own account resolved to
do the same.
That evening Jack went as usual to
the fairy ring and-hid in a hole with
- only his ears sticking out the top. The
fairies laughed and sang, all the time
drawing nearer -to Jack Rabbit's hiding
place. And the goblins, led by the one
little goblin who had heard of the fairies'
plan, dug up through the ground till they
were right under Jack.
And all at once the fairies all to
gether jumped into the hole and selling
Jack's ears began to pull away for dear
life. At 'the same minute the goblins
broke through the last bit of earth and
got hold of his tail. And for all that
they - were so small they -tugged and
tugged till' between them they nearly
tore Jack: in two.
! "Never do to let the fairies et him !"
fumed the goblins. ' y . r , ,
"Whatever is holding him V - gasped
the fairies. And they pulled and pulled
till suddenlv thev all fil f in m
The goblins had pulled Jack's; tail clean
"" uii oeiore - me xairies recovered
their breath the little rabbit .was half
7 across the forest 'crying.' in three
different languages. .. And next morning
wRen he s saw how the fairies bad
stretched , his ears and he looked at the
poor little piece that the goblins had
left of his tail, he cried some more. ;
y But, ever after that he ran away from
everybody and minded his own business.
Which is a good thing. . .-
