“My goodness me sakes alive and a peanut lollypop! What happened?” cried Uncle Wiggily, looking around as he felt the bag on his back ripped open. “What’s the matter?” Johnnie and Billie laughed to see the Pipsisewah and Skeezicks all stuck up with the sharp chestnut burrs. “That’s what happened, Uncle Wiggily!” chattered Billie. “The Pip and Skee were fooled all right!” “You said there was cake in that bag!” ”

“ They are full of splinters.” Charlie and Arabella had helped pick up the chestnuts the second time, the bunny fixed the hole made by the Pipsisewah, and Johnnie and Billie opened the chestnuts. Nurse Jane made the cake. Everybody was happy except the Pip and the Skee.

Uncle Wiggily Had a Good Time Roasting Marshmallow Candies. ”
