Peter Kinds .liininy Skunk at Work. Jimmy Skunk may move slowly. He may appear never to hurry. But there is nothing slow about Jimmy * wits. He picks 'up hints here ami there, hints which may he useful to him later, and no one suspects that he is doing anything of the kind. When Peter Babbit told him that he had seen Mrs. Blacksnake come out from under a big, flat stone on a certain sunny bank In the Old Pas ture and he guessed that she was making her home there, Jimmy Skunk didn't appear particularly in terested. He was Interested enough to ask a question or two, but they were such questions ss anyone might have asked. When Peter and Jimmy parted Peter went on his way without once suspecting that he had told anything of special Interest to Jimmy Skunk. He had told Jimmy where that flat stone was, and he knew that Jimmy was headed that way. He thought that Jimmy was simply curious to see the place where Mrs. Blacksnake lived. A lit tie later Peter returned along the same path. As he drew near the sunny hank he wondered If he would see Mrs. iilaollsnake again. As he I came In eight of that sunny hank he stopped short. Jimmy Skunk was there. Jimmy was over by the big, flat stone and he seemed to lie very busy about something. "He's digging!" exclaimed Peter un der his breath. "He is digging around that hlg, flat stone under which Mrs. Hlacksnake lives. At least, l sup pose she lives there. Now I wonder what Jimmy is doing that for. It must be that he saw a fat beetle rV I "My, my! Jimmy must want that beetle badly to go to all that work," thought Peter. under that big, flat Rtone and is try ing to dig it out. That stone is too big for him to pull over and so he is digging under it. I didn't suppose Jimmy would do that much work Just for a fat beetle." Peter sat down to watch. Jimmy Skunk hadn’t seen him. Jimmy was too much occupied to be looking around, lie is such an independent fellow that he seldom cares who sees him. Just now he was too much in terested in what he was doing to even glance around. With his little black paws he was digging away the earth from under the edge of that big. tlat atone. He seemed to be very eager. Now and then he would try to reach under that tlat stone. Then he would go to digging again. "My, my! Jimmy must want that beetle badly to go to all that work," thought I’eter, "If it was the time of year when food was scarce I wouldn't think anything about It, but Jimmy ran find plenty to eat without working like that. I wonder what Mrs. Blacksnake would do If she should come home and find Jimmy at work there?" Peter looked all about eagerly for some sign of Mrs. Blacksnake. He saw nothing of her for the very good reason that she wasn't there. Jimmy Skunk was digging faster now. He was hurrying as much as Jimmy ever hurries. Peter could see that he was quite exciter!. Peter grew more and more curious. Two or three times he opened his mouth to ask Jimmy what he was working so hard for. But each time decided to wait. Copyright, 1924.
