Burgess DS] Seck not for happiness apart; You'll always find it in the heart, ~-Peter Rabbit, I------ Peter Rabbit had gone over to the Old Pasture, It was a beauti- ful morning, Of course Peter should have been at home in the dear Old Briar-patch. However, ne had gone over to the Old Pas- ture the night before and jolly, round, bright Mr, Sun began his daily ¢limb up into the blue, blue sky before Peter realized that It was time to go home, He saw Red- tail the Hawk sailing high in the sky and right then and there he decided that he would remain in the Old Pasture, for that day at least, Peter was trying to decide just what to do next when he heard a humming sound. It seemed to be just over his head, Peter looked up. Hummer the Humming-bird swooped down with such speed and go close to Peter's head that Peter ducked. 'What are you trying to do?" he cried indignantly, "Just trying to express my hap- piness," replied Hummer, making Peter duck again, "Isn't spring a beautiful time of year?" he con- tinued. "I always love to visit the Old Pasture when Columbine is in bloom." Peter pricked up his long ears. Columbine? Columbine? he re- peated. "I suppose that is a flow. er. You don't seem to be much interested in anything but flow ers." Z-zoom came Hummer close to one of Peter's long ears. "Of course the Columbine is in flower, stupid!" he cried. "It is one of the most beautiful of all the flow- ers of the spring, and when I find the first bloom I always feel that 1 have found something very pre- clous. Only a few moments ago I found the first I have seen this year, and the whole day is bright. er for the finding." ' Peter's face brightened' sudden- ly and he gave a little hop in the air. "Of course, 1 know the Col- umbine!'" he cried. "It is so long since I saw it last spring that for a few minutes I could not remem- her it. But I remember it now and 1 remember just where to look for it" Without another word Peter started up one of the old ecow- paths that led to the upper part of the Old Pasture. Lipperty-lip- perty-lip ran Peter and there was joy in his heart as he ran. Hum- mer darted ahead and in the twinklink of an eye had disappear- ed. Peter kept on, lipperty-lipper- ty-lip. Presently he came to a rocky ledge. He turned and hop- ped along this a little way ano then he sat up and drew a long breath of pleasure. There, sway- ed by the Merry Little Breezes that PHONE 22 For Your Drug Needs THOMPSON'S 10 Simcoe St. 8. ~= We Deliver Hummer darted from flower to flower, e were dancing around themi, were several nodding blossoms, bright scarlet without and bright yellow within, Each blossom looked as if it were made of five little horus-of- plenty fastened together-little fairy horns-of-plenty upside-down, Bach litle horn was in reality a petal---a hollow petal, quite un- like the flat petals of most flow- ers. From the midst of thes five petals five pistils and many stam- ens were thrust out like a little tassel. On the tip of each stamen was a little package of golden dust, which is cailed the pollen, The flowers were lovely in them- selves, but they were more lovely for the slender, delicate stems on which they were borne and the beautiful, light-green leaves divid- ed into smaller leaves, or leaflets, as they are called, these in turn di vided into three or more parts.
