-ePeler Rabbit.

Peter Rabbit was up in the Old Pasture and wished he wasn't. He had thought it won-id be fun to spend the day there. Now he wish- edghe was back in the dear Old Brier-patch where he should have been. He was sitting in a small brambile-tangle. He felt QUIIIC sate there. but he would have felt safer had that tangle been a little bigger, Some talks call the kind of briers of which that tangle was made up "cat-nbniers." probably because of the way they scratch and tear any one trying to lorce a way through tnem. Farmer Brown's boy calls them "bull-briers." Most folks .3 big as Peter Rabbit keep away from them. This is why Peter loves them. Long ago he learned how to cut little paths through them. paths just big enoug-h for him to run along without getting his coat torn. at those 0! whom he is airaid. only Shadow the Weasel and Billy Mink can follow him there without

Delicate consideration play a part in some penalty doubles. Ob- serie tahs case:

west correctly read East's double as calling tor a diamond lead- through the suit. bid by dummy- and obediently led his slnzlewn nine, but this was out very lime value to the defenders! Scutli could rattle oit the first 10 tricks! This gave him quite a score-400 below the line and 460 above. to say nothing of the 500-point. rubber bonus. .

Inevitably, East. was called on W his partner to justify his double, and. though somewhat sheeplsh, Bast attempted to do this by say- ing that it had seemed vital to stave oiti the heart lead which was sure to be made it West was not warned against it. Holding such ex- cellent diamond stoppers and club strength. East reasoned that the hand would be beaten. in all pro- bability. it he could keep West irom

There was something to be said for Eastt's anxiety to avoid the heart lead which appeared immin- ent. but apparently East ignored the greater danger that a double would court a prompt redouble from the opponents, who were obvi- oualy strong. south. tor example was not unaware 01 East's initial pass; he knew that East couldn't have a sound double oi three notnimp, and hence the redoubllng idea was virtually thnist at south.

In view of this point, It. is worth observing that a gambling double can be indulged in more freely by a player who has not passed origin- allv.

being badly scratched and having their coats tom. So Peter loves bra-1:-blci;-tangles with path: t-hrougii them, and he spends much time cutting these paths. You see they are safety paths.

Peter was listen to a voice. It was a strange voice. He never had heard it be-tore. He was sure of that. He knew the voices of Bowser the Hound and Flip the Terrier who live at Farmer Brown's house. He had heard the voices of some other Dogs when hunting Raddy Fox and Bobby Coon. This voice was differ- ent.

"He has a big voice. He. must be as big as Bnwser the Hound. That must be either Reddy's track or Mrs. Raddy".-2 that he is trying to i'oI'lo-w." thought Peter as he listen- ed. He was just mildly interested. He settled back and tried to doze again. Suddenly that voice sounded nearer. very much nearer. Instant- ly. Peter was very wide awake again. g

"That Dog is right where I was last night. I didn't find any signs or Reddy or Mrs. Reddy than. One of the-in must have been there since I was." thought Pclcr.

New at first that Dog had bark- rd only now and then. Sometimes it was quite a while between barks. On the still night air sounds car- ried tar. and now and then Peter would hear an impatient whine be- tween barks.

Peter chuckled to himself. "That lellow is having a hard work tind- ing that scent.” thought he. "Dry leaves don't hold scent well, and when I was up there they were very dry. It probably was the same when one of those Foxes was there. He won't worry Reddy or Mrs. Redriy much until he can follow trail a lot taster than he is doing now. My. w-hat a voice!"

It was a voice such as hunters like to listen to. and it was sound- ing oftener and rittencr now, more and more eager and excited. Peter knew what that meant. it meant I'.ia'I. the trail was getting fresher and fresher. warmer and warmer the hunters would say. And be- cause that voice was louder and louder Peter knew that it was drawing nearer and nearer.

Presently through the bushes he caught. sight. of something red. Then out into an opening camc Reddy Fox. He turned and stood looking in the direction nt that Dog. Then he sat down. His black ears were cocked forward. His mouth was open a litiile way.'and the end of his tongue hung a lit- tle way out at one side. He was grinning. Yes. sir. Roddy Fox was grinning.

It was plain that Roddy was neither frightened nor the least bit worr-ied. Peter could see that.

"Why doesn't he run?" thought Peter. "Why doesn't he get tar enougii ahead to do something to try to break his trail? it he waits much longer that Dog will be so near Reddy will have to run his hardest to get away.”

But Roddy didn't run. He con- tinued to sit right there and grin. Then in a .te-w minutes out trom the bushes came the possessor of that voice. Peter's mouth tell open in sheer surprise, so that he really looked ioolish. And I su- spect. he felt as foolish as he look- ed. That big voice belonged to a surprisingly small Dog.
