He djdn't like to admit it, but it true. To him it had seemed perfectly clear that if anyone wanted the seeds from the cones of a spruce tree the sim- ple and sensible thing to do would be to wait for the cones to open on the tree and let the seeds fall. He had said so rathor scornfully when Chatterer the Red Squirrel had cut the cones just before they were ready to open and then had opened the cones and taken out the seeds. That had seemed a waste of time and a lot of extra work to Peter, and he had taken great pleasure in saying so, Always he had thought Chattercr one of the smartest of the Little People of the Green Forest, hut now his respect had suddenly decreasod. However, this feeling didn't Inst long. Chatterer has a sharp tongue and he used it. He ealled Wim Mr, Smarty and pointed out to him that the seeds in the spruce cones have wings, When the conas open on a treo tha soads drop out and safl away and trying to find them would ba a job not worth while, = So Chatterer cuts the cones from the tree and does it just before they are ripe enough to open. Then he collects them in a pile and at hig leosure opens them and carries the seeds to one of his storehouses, It really is a very smart and thrifty plan. Peter being honest, admitted it, "Excuse me, Chatterer," said he. "I really didn't know about those littlo wings on the seeds. | supposed they would drop straight gown to tho pround, Of course you are right, and I think ft 1s very smart of you to have thought of n way to make sure of those seeds. IT wonder what OldMoether Nature put those wings on them for?" Chatterer was once more good natured. '"That ought to be plain Snough for even you to see,' said e. ped straight down they would |e right under the tree, wouldn't they?" "Yes," replied Peter, "What of LY ld "And the seeds not used for food would be likely to sprut in the spring and littlo trees wonld spring up from them, wouldn't they?" continued Chatterer "Or course." rnid Peter. one would know that,' "What chance would they have crowded together under this big troe where the sun couldn't reach them, and where there would be VERY NERVOUS, TIRED o o o LITTLE SLEEP 'Any rw A wh 4 - PRE ab .

"Don't you see it now? Old Mother Na- ture put wings on the seeds so that the wind will scatter them tor a long distance and at least some of them will fall where there is room to grow. It really is quite simple when you think of it." "'Se-4t-18,"" replied Peter. 'So it fs. I guess Old Mother Nature has a good reason for everything she does." "Aud I guess that your guess is absolutely right," retorted Chat terer, and started off through the tree tops about his business. Presently Peter started on. He didn't pay strict attention to where he was going for he was still thinking about what he had learn- ed Iu regard to troes, A familiar odor brought his attention back to his surroundings. He wrinkled his nose. It wasn't a odor, "Jimmy Skunk has been around here," muttered Peter. 'I haven't wen Jimmy for a long time. 1 thought he was asleep. Anyway, no room pleasant I didn't think he would come way over here in the Green Forest Ho must be around here somowhere right now, I would like to see Jimmy" S56 Poter began to hunt for Jimmy Skunk or some trace of him. That odor seemed to he just in one place, When Peter got a short distance from it he could no longer smell that odor. Yet with all his hunting he couldn't find a trace of Jimmy Skunk, Still Peter didn't doubt that Jimmy was somae- where about, "I can trust my nosn," sald Peter, "All the time Peter was heing badly fooled, for Jimmy Skunk waen't in the Green Forest and SIMCOE STREET Y.
