It wasn't long before Jock shw a rabbit sitting up on his haunches near a tree and Jock ran toward it as fast as he could. Mr. Rabbit was to quick for him, however, and ran toward an old stump and in a se cond was inside and put of danger Now Jock had als seen the stump before and remembered that it was quite large enough for him to crawl as weldvas the rabbit. So he made a dash for the hollow stump which was lying flat on the ground and in he went. When the rabbit ran through it had stirred up. af nest of bees that were making their winter home in a the stump and when poor Jock tried, to get hy the Bees began to sting him terribly. Jock ran yelping out of the stump and the bees went after him, bugzing angrilly and stinging him in évery place they could. The rabbit didn't get stung at all and ~when Jock came rushing out the rab bit was sittin upigear a clump. of small trees d laughing at him. Suddenly Jock saw a stream of wa ter and mada for it, dashing in way up to his nose and splashing about to make the bees stop stinging him, | and soon the angry bees flew byek to the tree stumpohome. - When Jack saw the rabbit behind the bushes Taughing at him he was very angry but he soon decided that he would not run the risk of going near the bees again and he put his tail between his legs and ran hom: as fast as he could. His master fixed up the stings with sonte lini ment but_Jock never forgot the le son and kept away from hees there after, GEE GD GERD CD GEED 00 GIEED (12D GREED GoD GEE (0D GED G A At tr i a i, "Low Cost of Menu for Friday BREAKFAST Stewed 'Wpricots Boiled Fggn Pointe Mufias Foast 'Coffee LUNCHEON Salt Mackerel, with Cream Sauce .
