Over at the edge of the dea: Old Brlar-panch little Mrs. Peter shook her head as she looked at Peter's footprints leading away from the Biciar-patcli "Some day there will ucvcr be ' y of those footprints leading back (his way." thought she worrledlv. Mrs. Peter stays li-i the dear Old Brier-patch. Peter has what she calls “itching heels." but she hasn't.

Along the hank Peter found footprints in the snow. He stop- ped to look at rheim. It always is ivell to know who ls in the neigh- borhood or has been. Knowing this often enables one to keen out of trouble. So Peter stopped for a look at these prints

"Bobby Coons Anjrivav a Centre." he muttered. “Hasnt zone to sleep for the winter yet but. I suppose he will be goinz soon. not" Wonder ivhat. he is clozng over here. Of course. it. is none of m_v business. but just the same I ivoulcl like to know. I won- der. iiliv it is that the business of other folks is always more inter- esting than ones own. Anvwaix I lhnven‘; any just now so I'll just toilets» these tracks and sec wha‘ that Coon is about."

He had followed them but a short. distance when he had a Yeeizng there was srmet-hlng ivrong. Somehow it seemed as if some- ‘ihing was missing. Then all in a

flash he kn Wllllt was wrong. whni was nil. ng The prints of only lhsvte feet were showing on

‘Fhe fooigninls led along Laugh- ing Brook into the little swamp a1 the head of Hie Smiling Pool. Every ievv bounds Peter stopped to sit up the better to see ahead. S0 it was that he saw the niakcr of those prints before lic was him- self seen. It was a member of Bc-bby Coons liinilly just as Peter had all along known from the prints that il. must be. It was a big Coon. He was cit the edge of the water and brick to Peter. so the latter could not sce if n from leg. or perhaps. part of one. ivas missing.

So Peter sat sllll and watched and lvlccl tn bl‘ patient and wasn't. But he kept still lust the same. Prcscntli' a brown head appeared ll! lhc watcr.
