Farmer Brown's boy sat beside the IJCTIe Little Path watching Mr. Klngsnake trying his best to swallow little Mr. Gartersnake, and little Mr- Gartersnake trying equally hard in keep from being s-ivallcived. Why didn't Farmer Brown's boy interfere and set 900T little Mr, Gurtersnake free? He hnd intended to do just that when he first saw the struggle in the path. Then. he had noticed that Mr. Gartersnake seemed to no longer be going down the long throat of his bigger cousin, In short he seemed to have somehow stuck when only half swallowed. Perhaps he didn't need help after all. Former Brown's boy decided to trait and see. In the bushes is little way oi’! he saiw Peter Rabbit sitting up very straight and watching both hiirn and the struggle in the Liane Little Path. "Hello, Mr. Curiosity! Do you know why that big fellow can't keeps-n swallowing his cousin?” asked Farmer Brown's boy. Of course Peter didn't under- stand him and i! he had under- stood he would have kept his’ tongue still, for he know no more than did Farmer Brown's boy why little Mr Gartersnake .was stuck in the throat o-f Mr. Kingsnake, “There must he a reason. There is a reason for everything." con- tinued Farmer Brown's boy just as if Peter understood him. "There is a queer lump in Mr. Kingsnakes throat, as if he has scmething in there too bill to be swallowed, but no part of Mr, Gartcrsnake is that big, Trying to swallow something too big must be a most uncom- fortable feeling. I'm glad I don't have to swallow my food whole," The struggle in the Lone Little Path continued with no results that Peter Rabbit 6r Farmer Brown's boy could sce. Mr. Garter- snake stuck right there in Mr. Kingsnake's throat and there seemed to be nothing that either could do about it at last Farmer Brown's bOy lost patience. Nothing had happened, nothing was hap- pening. and it looked very much as . if nothing was about to happen. "I can't sit around here all day. Peter Rabbit?" said Farmer Brown's boy, knowing full well that Peter could so far as having anything of importance to do was concerned. “What do you say ll we investigate and try to find out what the trouble is?" or course Peter didn't say. But he did make a couple of hops nearer as FHILTICI‘ Brown's boy got to his feet and walked toward the two Snakes. They saw him com- ing, but there was little to be done about. it, Mr. Gartersnake couldn't do any-thing and all- MI. King- snake could do was to try to squirm away, carrying Mr. Garter- snake with him. mrmer Brown's boy didn't have to even walk fast to catch up with them. Ibrcitedly Peter Rabbit hopped a few horps nearer as Farmer Brown's boy picked up Mr. King- snake, who still held on to Mr. Gartersnake. What we; he going to do with than? Would he kill them? Peter was sure he wouldn't He isn't that kind, and all the little people know it. would he pull M}. Gartersnake out of Mr. Kingsnake’: mouth? He didn't.

Yes, air, he had tied a knot. made a big bulge too big to be swallowed. Farmer Brown's boy put him down on the ground. Little Mr. Gartersnake promptly untied him- self and glided sway in the grass, l-Ie didn't even stop to say thank you. “I wish." said Farmer Brown's boy. "that 1 could believe that you are smart enough to have tied that knot in yourselr pur- posely.
