After a little time the train pulled out of the depot, the crowd disappear ed anil the two elderly women found themselves facing each other.

Hello, there he is now!” Sure enough. there was Old Man Coyote Just coming down on the Green Meadows from the Old Pas ture. Peter was glad that lie was In the deer Old Briar Path and not on his way home. He sat up, the better to watch Old Man Coyote. He won dered what Old Man Coyote was coming down on the Green Meadows for. He didn't have to wait long to find out. Old Man Coyote headed straight for the place where Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse had been liv ing when Peter last saw them. When he got there he began to hunt. He ran this way and that way, back and forth, crossing and recrossing his own trail, and covering every hit of that ground. Most of the time his nose was to the ground. Once in a while he would stop to prick up his ears and listen. Peter watched every- move Old Man Coyote made. He understood perfect ly what Old Man Coyote was doing. He was hunting for Meadow Mice. He was hunting for Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse. "I’m wrong again.” muttered Peter. "Yes, sir, I'm wrong again. Old Man Coyote Is hunting for Danny and Nanny Meadow Mouse, and of course, he wouldn't do that If he had already caught them. I wonder who did catch thehi. I’m sure that Keddy Fox didn't. I'm sure that Mrs. Reddy didn't. I’m sure that Jtmnfy Skunk didn't. And now I'm sure that Old Man Coyote didn't. It must have been Redtalt the Hawk or Hooty the Owl. <)C course, It doesn't make any difference who caught them. Knowing who did it won't bring them back. Just the same I would like to know. 1 would so.” Presently Old Man Coyote gave up hunting. He trotted over to the dear Old Briar Patch and peeped in at Peter. "Have you your friends. Uanny and Nanny Meadow Mouse, hidden in there?” asked Old Man Coyote. "I wouldn’t tell you if I had," re plied Peter most impolitely. £jjd Man Coyote grinned. It was on the whole a rather good-natured grin. "That's right, Peter,” said he. “That’s right. Always stand by your friends, Peter. I don't think that Danny or Nanny Meadow Mouse are In tho Old Briar Patch, hut you are quite right in not telling. Don't you want to come out and help me hunt for them?” Old Man Coyote grinned slyly. Peter had to grin himself. "No, thank you,” said he. The next story: "Peter Rabbit Rubs His Eyes." fCopyrisht 1823) Dampen the stale rolls or muffins and heat, in the oven.
