Danny Meadow Mouse was bepin* nlng to get used to the sunny souin. He hadn’t found his way back to the great man-bird, or airplane, which had brought him down there and where he felt sure Nanny was. He missed Nanny, but not ss much as he would have had there not been so much that was new and strange to him to look at and wonder about. He was beginning to feel more at home than he had at first. Almost every day, he saw Mr. Mocker the Mock ingbird, and this helped a lot. Then one day he had a grad sur prise. He had stopped to rest under a plant which bore some bright flow ers. He heard a humming sound, and then before he could quite make out where it came from a sharp, squeaky voice Cried, "Am I dreaming, or is this DAnny Meadow Mouse?" "It is me. Of course it is me. Who else could it be?" cried Danny, nnrl ran out from under the plant, for he had recognized that voice. A tiny bird darted almost in Dan ny's face, ills fhroat was like a red Jewel. His bill was like a needle. He stopped in mid air right in front of Danny, then flew over to a twig and alighted there. "It is! It certainly is!" declared Hummer the Hummingbird, for this is who the little fellow was. "How ever did you get here. Danny Meadow Mouse? Have you grown a pair of wings since I saw you late in the summer tip on Green Meadows? ' Danny chuckled. "No. Hummer, I haven't grown a pair of wings." said he.

My. but it does my eyes good Just to see you! Did you fly all the way down here with those tiny wings of yours?” "You don't see any biggnr wings, do you?” squeaked Hummer, and then both laughed. "Of course I flew down here,” he continued. "That Is tooth ing. Some of my family spend the winter as far south of here as this Is south of your old home. For my "How Ever Did luu Del Here, Danny Meadow Mouse?" self, I am satisfied with It here, and I shall stay here until it Is time to go North again In the spring. But that isn't telling me how you got here.” So once more Danny had to tell the story of hla long journey In the great man-bird. “I've Bern those same man birds." replied Hummer. “And they certain ly can fly. But. my, what a noise they make! I suppose that Is because their wings move so fast." You know the humming of Hummer Is made by his swiftly moving wings. So it was natural for him to think that the noise of an airplane was made by its wings. He- never had noticed that those wings did not move at all. "I hope I shall see you often," said Danny. "You know a fellow feets lonesome In a strange place." "Where is Nanny?" demanded Hummer. "She Is In that great man-bird, I suppose." said Danny. "But I don’t know where that great man-bird is. I've lost it." "Huh!" exclaimed Hummer. "That was a stupid thing to do!” "I know It." confessed Danny. "I’ve been hunting for it, but I can't find It."

Any drug gist can supply you with 2'/* ounces of Pinex. Pour this into a pint bottle and till the bottle with plain granu lated sugar syrup. Or you can use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup, if dea,red. Th.< recipe makes a pint of really remarkable cough remedy. It tastes good, and in spite of its low cost, it can be depended upon to give quick and lasting relief. You can feel this take hold of a cough in a wav that means business.
