Mrs, Jay may have a nest close by and you never suspect it. go Peter had no success at all in his hunt for that nest of Sammy Joy's. Nevertheless, he eouldn't keep it out of his mind, On this particular morning Peter was over in the Green Forest, He was hopping along down the crook. od Jttle path where it winds be- tween the pine trees, It was some time since Peter had been gyer here, The last time there had been nothing special to see, Ho It was with surprise and then with delight that Peter discovered just off to one side of the path one of the loveliest of all the spring flowers---the Lady's-8lipper, or Mocassin Flower, as ft is sometimes called," Peter squealed right out with pleasure and hopped over for a close look at it, Rising from between two large, rather thick, pointed oval leaves, which seemed fo be growing opposite each other right out of the ground, was a slender stem, at the top of which hung one of the quain- 'test, mont interesting and most beautiful of all spring flowers," One petal of a delicate pink and coverea with little lines of darker pink was in the shape of a dainty bag with a slit nearly the whole length on the upper side, The odged of this fold. od in, Some folks think it looks Jke an Indian's mocassin and this f9 why it is called the Mocassin Plower, The other petals did not fook in the Yeast like this one, "I wonder if Lady Bumblebee is anywhere around." thought Peter, "She certainly has to work for the sweets she gots out of these flowers, but she seems to think it Is worth all it couts, Hello! Here she comes." "By-z-z-2-2," sald Lady Bumble- hee, nn she passed one of Peter's long ears. "Beg-u-g-z-r," And she alighted right on that beautiful pink.
