until he was sure about them no matter how curious about them he might be. And because there were so many things in the woodhouse that were new and so strange to him he was afraid most of the time. Even so it was fun to ex- plore. Sometimes there is fun in being afraid. That is what leads boys and girls to do dangerous things even when they are afraid to do them. There is a thrill in being afraid and they like the thrill. Queer. isn't it. And foolish o0

Nibblet has been living in the

v woodhouse only twg days, but a

day in the life of a Mouse is really a long time. Mice are quite grown up when they are two months old and when thev are three months old have families of their own. So by this time Nibblet felt quite at home there. Much of his time was spent looking for food. Flor this he depended mostly on his nose. His eyes were good for seeing things cloSe by. but not even for what would be a short distance away for you and me. Already he had learned to depend on his ears to warn him of possible enemies and on his nose to find food. When his nose had led him near enough to use his eyes he always did use them, looking things over from all sides. Wisely he used both nose and eyes. not depending on nose alone. Already he had become ac- quainted with several other Mice living in the woqdhouse and had learned from them the place where he was most likely to find food. Also he had found out that often there would be enough for one but not enough to share with others, so it wasﬂwlse to make the most of what he found when he found it.

Now as he sat wondering which way to go in search of something to eat he decided that he would go m if Black. Pussy had left in his saucer a. little milk. First making sure that Black Pussy “m5 nowhere about he darted over to the saucer. It. was empty. licked dry. Such a disappointment! He hnd counted on at least a few drobs. He knew by the smell another Mouse had been ahead of him.

He sat in the middle of the saucer trying to decide which way to g0 now. All the time his keen little nose was at work trying to decide that question for him. It did. It picked up a smell very faint but as wonderful as it was faint. Never had Nibhlet know such a smell. It was brand new. It was from something good to eat. It had to be. Nothing-could possibly smell so good and not taste equal- ly good. Whatever it was he must find it. He knew he couldn't pos- siblv rest until he did.

That delicious smell was so faint that he couldn't be sure o! the direction from which it was coming. He started off and almost at once lost the smell. He circled around and presently it was once more tickling his nose. This time it was stronger and he could folloiv it. It led him strnhzht over to a box close to a wall. There was just room enough bet/ween the box and the wall for a Mouse to run. Riaht there he found the cause of that delicious smell. It was riuht under his verv nose and smelling more wonderful than ever. It was a

small hit of cheese. What a. find! What a wonderful find!
