Burgess "Tis well that seldom may we know tittle folks may grow, To wit hs | Jerry Muskrat, ] ' Peter Rabbit sat on the bank of the Smiling Pool and chuckled, He just couldn't help chuckling, Just one look at Jerry muskrat's face was effough to make any one chuckle. "You have quite a fam- ily," said Peter politely, Jerry Muskrat looked at the nine babies gwimming around their mother © and replied in a rather faint voice, "Yes, 1 certainly have plenty," AL that, Peter laughed right out, Mrs, Muskrat where it was low and bables came after her, "Why don't you come over and meet your children?" she squeaked rather sharply, Then Jerry began to swim .in that direction, "I'm coming, my dear," said he, "I'm coming." He swam over and went ashore beside Mrs. Muskrat, Ave----are you sure those are all ours?" he asked in a rather faint voice, "Certainly, I'm gure!" squeaked Mrs. Muskrat, for her voice is in. clined to be squeaky, "1 guess I ought to know! I've fed them and taken care of them long enough, Come here, children, am meet your father, Perhaps some day you'll grow to be as good-look. ing as he is." At that, Jerry Muskrat puffed himself up and tried to look ime portant, But it was very difficult to feel as important as he tried to look, when he realized that all these youngsters running around were his and yet they were perfect strangers, One by one they were introduced, but for the life of him Jerry couldn't tell which opes he had met and which he hadn't before halt of them had been in troduced, "They all look alike, don't they?" he ventured, "Nothing of the kind!" retorted Mys, Muskrat sharply, "How can you say such a thing, Jerry Musk. rat? Some look like yon and some look like me and some don't look lke either of us," "They don't 'any of them look like either of us, so far as I can see," ventured Jerry, "What do you mean?' snapped Mrs, Muskrat, "Well, their coats are not the same color as ours," replied Jerry, "They're not brown like ours, They look to me gray, By the way, that reminds me. When I. saw them last they didn't have any fur coats." , Mrs, Muskrat whirled like a flash, "When did you see them?" she demanded, "Well," 1 didn't _axactly see them," explained Jerry, "but 1 touched them, And they certainly didn't have any fur coats,' "When?" demanded Mrs. Musk- rat again, "Oh, a long time ago," replied Jerry, "When they were very little, I went into the house when you were out, hut I didn't stay a ashore nine came the "It is Just as well you didn't," ve. ' torted Mrs, Muskrat, "I'll have ; to admit that their coats are some what gray now, but they'll turn Felt Bros. The Leading Jeweler Established 1886 12 SIMCOE ST.
