Blacky the Crow grew more and more excited as he looked down on the race between Peter* Rabbit and a strange dog. It was an exciting race. There was no douht about that. Peter's white tail was bobbing along just in front of the nose of that yelp ing dog. There Is little that the sharp eyes of Blacky the Crow miss. He saw the little hole in the hedge for which Peter was heading. He saw that it was just big enough for Peter to go through, but too small for that dog to go through. “Run,* Meter! Run!” cawed Blacky, for it did look as if that dog would catch Peter before he could reach that hedge. Hut what Blacky didn't know was that Peter wasn't running his fastest. He had a reason for this. He wanted that dog to be right at his very heels when he reached that hedge, so, glanc ing hack- over his shoulders, he kept watch of that dog and ran only just fast enough 10 keep out of his jaws. They were almost to the hedge, and Blacky the crow began to feel re lieved. If Peter once got through that hedge he would be safe. That is what Blacky thought. Clever as he is, he had quite forgotten that that dog could Jump that hedge. So of course Blacky expected to see Peter drive through that little hole. But he saw nothing of the kind. No, sir, he saw nothing of the kind. Peter reached that hole hardly half a jump ahead of that dog. But, in stead of diving through that hole Peter made one of those quick turns for which he is famous. It was done so quickly that the dog didn't even see him do it. The dog had seen that hole in the hedge and expected Peter to dive through it. He had a plan of his own, had that dog. Just at the instant he expected Peter to dive through that hole he himself jumped over the hedge. Of course, he lifted his eyes to do this. He expected to land on Peter when he came out on the other side. So, having lifted his eyes in order to see where he was jumping, he didn’t see I’eter make that quick turn. Never was there a more surprised dog than was that one when he landed on the ground on the other side of that hedge and saw nothing of Peter Rabbit. He didn't know what to make of it at all. He was sure that Peter had dived through that hole He had expected to land on I’eter when he came out on the other side. He was sure that he had planned his jump so that he could not fail. But he hadn't landed on Peter and no Petee was in sight. The dog looked up along the hedge, he looked down along the hedge. There wasn't a sign of Peter Rabbit. Then he ran a little way up along the hedge with his nose to the ground. Then he turned and ran down a little way with his nose to the ground. There was no scent of Peter Rabbit. All the time Peter had been running as fast as his long legs could take him. He had been running twice as fust ns he had run with the dog be hind him. By the time the dog had recovered his wits and jumped back over the hedge I’eter had reached the end of it and was back on Farmer n l *»v' They were almost fo the edge, and Itlacky the Crow began to feel relieved. Brown's land. In fact, he was safely in an old hole once dug by Johnny Chuck. "Caw. caw, caw!" shrieked Blacky the Crow delightedly. “Peter is smart er than I thought. Yes. sir, he is smarter than I thought." (Copyright. 1123) The next story: “Old friends Talk Things Over.” Couple at Pawnee City Observes Golden Wedding Table Rock. Neb., Oct. 2.—Dr. George TV.
