.It was very early in the morn- ll . in fact. it was just after day- ii t. Peter Rabbit was where he hail no business to be. He should have been over in the dear Old Rriar-patch. but he ti'usn'l. Peter was mer at the mouth of Laugh- irtg Brook where it joins the Big R136-r. Just why he was there he couldn't have told himself. it really was because Peter has what is called the wandering foot. That is; he loves to wander about. Mhere Laughing Brook runs in- to the Big River there is a little war of sand. Sometimes it is wholly iut of water. Sometimes there is lust a little water over it. This iinrninjt. there was just a little rater over it. just enough for small 'lshes, like Minnows. to swim over he; sand. Longlegs the Heron ntuwi: all about that little sand" oar. Lnntzlegs is very fond 1 small fishes. and he has cau2' mirty of them there at the Hit saiidy bar. Peter likes to watri Lnnglegs fishing Perhaps r thijught he would find Longlcr over there.

how fishes could do that. A lot ut older and wiser people than Peter have wondered the same thing Hr wondered where the Miiinows had

water: reier naci mrgotton that there are certain Sl'Z'i(eS almost as much at linnic in the water as fishes are.

The little sti':iii';cr swatn iii so near tu Pcter sit!-iig there at thc edge iii the iiziter that he could hate reached out and touched it. Suddenly. Peter knew what he was looking down at. "it's a baby

eel!" he cried. He reniembercd the '

big Eel that used to live in the Smiling pool. She had been gone from there a long. time. She had

ilived there for many years. What

had become of her he diclnlt know. She had gone back to the Great

come from. and what they did with thetiiselres all day.

"Where Ill the iinrlii did you come friim"" he asked.

”lt iiili.-. no funny to live in the water all the time and never .i-ave it." thought Peter. ”Yes. sir, it must be funny. I'm glad I'm not a fish. Fishes can't go anywhere, or see much"

Just as he said this he saw I newcomer swimming close to the sand. This wasn't a Minnow. in fact the tiny newcomer didn't look anything like a fish. That is it didn't look like any fisher that Peter knew about. it was a very small person. hardly aii long as your finger. It was a very slender person looking almost like a grass

stem come In lilo The queer thing about It was it looked like glass.

"A baby Snake!" exclaimed Peter. "Now what in a baby Snake doing down under the

”Where in the world did you

;come frum?" he asked. Of course

that was a foolish question: for little Miss Elven". as the little Eel was called. couldn't possibly have heard iihat Peter was say- ing, even if she could have under- stood him. Little Miss Elvcr dis- appeared where the water was deeper.
