to a sk the re a so n , but N anny h u r
ried into the house. Such a sq u e a l
as th e r e w as then!
D anny r u sh e d in to see w hat h a d

Of c o u rse . M ite e x p e c te d a s c o ld

No, sir. he d id n 't get it. You see.
w hen he told about all his te r r ib le
a d v e n tu r e s his f a t h e r a n d m o th e r
th
j o u g h t he h a d been p u n ish e d
enough.
I n s te a d of scolding they
p r e p a r e d a g r e a t feast, and while
they a te it M ite told all o v e r a g a in
a b o u t his a d v e n tu r e s .
E v e r y b o d y a sk e d q u e stio n s, a n d
th e r e w a s such a h a p p y sq u e a k in g
and c h a t t e r i n g dow n in th a t pile of

h a d to p u t a stop to it for fe a r th a t
R eddy F o x or Old M an Coyote m ig h t
be p row ling a ro u n d and h e a r it.
And w hen at la st they all w ent to
bed in th e little house th e r e w as
g r e a t jo y a m o n g the old c orn-stalks,
for e v e r y th in g h a d c o m e out right,
ju st a s P e t e r R a b b it h a d told D anny
M eadow M ouse it would.
Die happiest place in all the »-or!d—
You knou; of course you do
It'* the place called home—your very
own
Now haven't 1 told you true?
/ " \ F CO U RSE I h a v e . T h e r e is n 't
any place like it lo r p u r e joy

finer h o m e s than y o u r own. but right

finest of th e m is th e r e so m u c h r e a l
h a p p in e s s as in y o u r own d e a r
h o m e —not for you. an y w a y .
Now, the h o m e of D a n n y M eadow
M ouse w a s n 't m u c h to look at. It
w as ju s t a little round house of corn
sh u c k s a n d g r a s s in th e m id d le of
a pile of old c o rn -sta lk s on the edge
of F a r m e r B ro w n 's cornfield, but
to little Mite, the lost b a b y of Dan-
K T . W. B u r g e s s . — W N U S e r v i c e .
Smartly Styled
“ I l e r e I a m ! H e r e I a m ! I ’ve
com e home! I've com e h o m e ! ”
ny. w h o m F a r m e r B r o w n 's boy had
b r o u g h t b a c k a g a in without know ing
it, it w a s the m o s t b e a u tifu l place
in all th e G r e a t World.
As he s c r a m b le d dow n a m o n g the
c o rn -sta lk s to th e little p a th th a t
led to th e little round d o o rw a y , he
called a t the top of his funny little
sq u e a k y voice: " H e r e I a m ! H e re
I a m ! I ’ve c o m e h om e! I 'v e c o m e
h o m e ! ” O ut tu m b le d his b r o th e r
and two siste rs, T eeny, Weeny, and
Midget, a n d c ro w d e d a ro u n d him
and ru b b e d noses w ith him , which
is the M eadow M ouse w a y of k is s
ing. a n d told him how glad they
w ere to see him . and a sk e d h im if
he really had seen the G r e a t World,
and w h a t it w as like, all ta lk in g
at once and m a k in g such a s q u e a k
ing as th a t pile of corn sta lk s n e v e r
h a d knuwn before.
L ittle Mite w ondered why his f a
th e r and m o th e r d id n 't c o m e out
to g r e e t him . and as soon as he got
a c h a n c e he a sk e d w h e re they w e r e
" T h e y a r e out hunting for y o u ."
replied T eeny. " T h e y 'v e been out
e v e ry d a y since you went a w a y , and
we’ve all been so m is e r a b le and
lonesom e.
You w o n 't ru n a w a y
again, will you, M ite ? ”
" N e v e r ! ” d e c la r e d Mite. " N e v e r
so long a s I liv e ! " And he really
m e a n t is.
"W o n ’t this be the best su r p r is e
for f a th e r and m o th e r th a t e v e r
w a s ' " c rie d Midget, d a n c in g about
e xcitedly.
"Y ou go inside the
house. Mite, and we'll play outside
Then w hen they go in they 11 find
you the re . Oh. w o n 't it be f u n ' "
So when they th ought it was about
tim e for D anny and N a n n y M eadow
Mouse to re tu rn . Mite w ent inside
He w ondered w hat they would say
to him . a n d w hat they would do to
punish h im . for he knew th a t he d e
se rv e d to be punished
You see. if
he h a d n 't disobeyed in the first pla c e
he w ouldn't h a v e been lost. But he
w a s so glad to be h o m e a g a in th a t
h e didn t m ind the thought of p u n
ishm e nt. Nothing could be w orse
t h a t w hat h a had been th ro u g h
D a n n y and N anny w ere la te In
getting home, and they w ere ao tire d
and f xitsore, with th e ir long s e a r c h
for little Mite, and so sad. th a t it
m a d e M ite 's h e a r t a c h e as he
peeped out at th e m
It re a lly was
