SYRUP curoa cough and cold
It waa the night before New Year’s
Tha air was clear and frosty and the
moon and stars were shining down on
the sparkling snow that covered the
prairie like the cloth on a round din-
ing table Toward midnight If you
had peeped from one of the windows
oi Mr Blsln’s farm house you would
have seen wht would have appeared
to have been a shadow coming up the
road toward the house As It came
nearer you would have seen that It
was a little animal about the size of a
lamb with great long ears and a bob-
tail and so white that at a little dis-
tance you could not tell -It from the
snow
But nobody saw the shadow for
everyone In the house was asleep ex
Away He 8campered Down the Road
cept tbe baby who waa lying wide
awake In her little cot at the foot of
mother’s bed Just as the clock was
striking midnight there came a gen-
tle tap at the door Baby heard it
but no one else did and she climbed
out of her cot and ran to the door
“I commln Bunnle” ehe called out
as she reached up to the handle and
let the little animal In “Now oo wait
a mlnnlt till baby dets on her toat Mr
Jack Rabbit”
Then she ran to the drawer and
pulled out her little coat and bon-
net and mitts and her little foot muffs
Baby had never dressed herself before
but at midnight between the old and
the new year bablea can do many
wonderful things which they cannot
do at any other time but you never
see them doing these things as they
will not do them while anybody In the
house Is awake
It only took baby a few minutes to
get on all her clothes Then she open-
ed the door and she and the Jackrabblt
went out Into the moonlight night
Aa soon as they were outside the rab-
bit got down on his knees and baby
climbed on bis back and away he
scampered down the road with baby
uolding on by his ears
Soon they were far away from
baby’s home so far that they could
only see the chimney At laat they
came to a hole leading down under
the ground Down this the Jackrabblt
popped and stopped up before a lit-
tle round door He tapped at the door
and waited until It was opened by a
fat little woman In a big white apron
and a white dusting cap
“Ha hs!” laughed tbs little woman
as sh took the baby off tbo Jsckrab-
bit’s back and nearly smothered her
arlth kisses “Hero is another little
guest fet Ormndmfe Jack Rabbit’s New
Year's party Now Jack sbnt ths door
or yon trill frseso tbo little dears Now
baby lot mo taka oS yous ooat and
bonnet so that you can play with the
other children”
Baby’s eyes opened wide with won-
der for there were over a dozen oth-
er little babies In the room which was
a great large one
“Now Jack” said Grandma Jack
Rabbit whose face was wrinkled up
with laughing all tbe time “you play
with the children while I get the sup-
per” Baby turned to see the rabbit but
he was gone and In his place stood a
little fat man with a lolly laughing
red face and a enow white beard
“Whay Is ne jackrabblt dat bot me
here 7” asked the baby
“I am he" answered the little man
“We Jack Rabbits just turn ourselves
With Baby Holding bn by Hla Ears1
Into little animals like rabbits when
we go out but when we are at home
we are little men and women”
Grandma Jack Rabbit went over to
the stove at the other end Of tbe
kitchen where she bad a big pot of
taffy boiling some corn popping a
big pan of chestnuts roasting In the
oven and some other things cooking
for the children’s supper and Grandpa
began to play with the children Oh!
What fun they had! They played
“Drop the Handkerchief” “Nuts In
May” "Here Comes a King Arriving”
“Green Gravel" “Blind Man’s Buff”
and every game they knew Then
Grandpa got down on bis bands and
knees and took them for a ride on
his back all around the room and over
to where Grandma was pulling the
golden taffy that had been boiling on
tbe stove
"Here’s a piece of taffy for each one
of my babies” laughed Grandma
Now gallop sway Grandpa like the
old black ram that went to London
Town but don’t let the little dears fall
off like papa and mamma did while I
set the table”
Grandpa scuttled off as fast as he
could go on hie hands and knees to
the other end of the room singing:
“Paps mamma and Uncle John went to
London on a black ram
"Papa (ell off O dear I O dear!
"Mamma (ell off O dearl O dear!
“And Uncle John went galloping on
galloping on to London Town?
Then tbe children all scrambled off
Mr Jack Rabbltt’a back and cried:
“Now Grandpa you play us eome
music and we’ll danca till Grandma
gets supper ready”
So Grandpa took tbe funniest look-
ing black stick out of bis pocket and
pnt It np to bis month but yon ought
to bsv beard tbs beautiful muslo
that cams out of that stick It was
magic and any on could dauc to It
oven If thsy bad nover danoed before
nor evoa seen any one dancing
Suddenly the music stopped an
Grandpa said:
“Come now children and have soma
supper Grandma’s waiting for us”
Then Mr and Mrs Jackrabblt lifted
each one of them into a high chair
and tied a big' bib around bis or her
neck so that the children would not
spill anything on their clothes And
what a feast they bad! There were
baked apples ginger bread doughnuts
cookies and Jam and afterwards they
bad nuts raisins taffy and popcorn
- “Now Grandpa” said one of the
children with a big piece of taffy la
bis mouth "Please tell us where you
got this new baby to-night”
“Well” said Grandpa “last week I
was passing Mr Blains’ house and tbe
baby was out playing In the garden
I hid behind the enow man she was
building so that nobody but she could
see me while I told her about the
party which we have here every New
Year’s Eve and I asked her if she
would like to come When ehe said
she would I told her not to tell any
one but to be awake at midnight on
New Year's night and I would come
for her then"
“Es” said Baby Blaln "it was a
drefful long time till New Year’s took
I fot It ud never turn but It did turn
and I’m having a gate time Tan I
tome here again?”
“O yea!’’ said Grandma VWe will
have another party next year and I
hope you will all be here” -
"Yes!" cried all the children nt
once “we'll all come If we can”
“Well now” said Mrs Jackrabblt
“come and bare a game with Grand-
ma and then it will be time to go
home”
“Let’s play tag and we’ll all try to
catch Grandma” said one of tbe chil-
dren and they all rushed toward her
but Grandma was too quick for them
and had darted across the room be-
fore any one could catch her Off they
ran after her Grandpa and all but
Grandma bobbed around like a cork la
a pall of water till she was all out of
breath and then Baby Blaln the lit-
tlest one of all was able to catch
her
“Ho! Ho! Ho! You're caught at
last” laughed Mr Jackrabblt “Well
Its time that our little ones were go-
ing borne for it will soon be daylight”
Tbe children were all sorry that the
party was over but Grandma and
Grandpa put on their coats and hoods
and muffled them up warm Then Mrs
Jackrabblt kissed them and wlahed
them all a happy New Year and told
them to be sure to come again tbo
next New Year’s Eve when Grandpa
Jackrabblt called for them
But where was Grandpa? ' He bad
disappeared while hie wife was kiss-
ing tbe children and in his place stood
tne funny little animal with tbe long
ears which bad brought the children
there and which Is called a Jackrab-
blt Grandma lifted the children on
his back all together and opened th
door and away the rabbit scampered
up the hole and over tbe enow When
he came to the nearest house he let
one of tbe children off and then turned
down tbe road letting a child off at
nearly every house he came to Baby
Blaln's bouse was the farthest off of
all and before they reached It Baby
could see that It was beginning to get
light away In the East where ths snn
rises The Jackrabblt saw the light
too and flew along faster than ever
Uil the wind whistled past Baby’s
ears for if hb did not get homo be-
fore daylight some one might see '
Jackrabblt and shoot him for their
dinner Bnt It was not long bofora
they came to th Dlala bonse
“Dood-by Grandpa” sJ t ao as’
abo slid down off tbo rabbit’s back
“and sank oo vezy much” and tbs rab-
bit was off llko n shot
