empty shells of the same calibre as

they know;
Everywhere Jr. every way you finrj that
this is no.
—Nanny Meadow Mouse.
'How Nanny ( home tli« New Home.
When Danny and Nanny Meadow
Mouse had started out to look for a
new home they hadn't had the least
Idea where that new home would be.
They simply wanted to get away from
where they had been living not far
from the dear Old Briar-patch. Too
many knew that they were living
there. Life was too uncertain. It
seemed to them that they spent most
of their time dodging enemies. So at
last they had started out to look for
a new home.
Now It happened that they were In
no particular hurry about that new
home, and so they kept on going far
ther and farther. They were explor
ing, and always It is fun to explore.
Each time they thought of stopping
they would feel the urge to go on a
little farther. And so It was that at
last they reached the Smiling Pool.
They couldn't go any farther In that
direction without swimming, and
while both could swim, neither
wanted to. So they turned and went
up along the Smiling Pool and passed
where the rushes grew at the place
where the laughing Brook entered
the Smiling Pool, and so they came
to the place where the alders grew.
Of course they had to explore that
alder thicket. They had no Intention
of making their home In there, but
they wanted to see what it was like In
there and learn all about it. They ex
pected to make their home on the
ground or in it. as Uiey always had.
It was Nanny who chanced to look up
and see the old neHt of Redwing the
Blackbird. It wasn't very high up.
and It was a very easy matter to
climb to It. Nanny did climb to It.
She wanted to see what it was like.
She found a very well built and com
fortable nest. Being tired, she curled
up In It to rest. And then it was
that the great idea came to her. She
scrambled out of that nest and down
to the ground so fast that Danny

on his face. "What do you mean?”
said ho at last.
”0o you see that old nest up
there?” cried Nanny.
"Of course I pee it. What of it?”
cried 0anny.
"Well, that's where we are going

our cousin, Whitefoot the Wood
Mouse, sometimes builds his home In
a bush or tree. There isn’t any
reason in the world why we shouldn't.
We'll put a fine roof over that old
nest, and we'll have the safest home
we have ever had in all our lives.
Every one who knows of that old nest
knows it is an old one, and no one
will look at it twice. We are right

Danny looked a little doubtful, but
