He would go mile out of his way to lunch on a dOOr-mat, and it would never do to hang a carpet out. He took especial delight in but ting school children over in the street, and eating their lunches, books and satchels. Finally the people got out of humor with
 Beelzebub, and they told Patsey he had better keep him in. So he tied a long piece of rope to one of the goats hind legs. and fas- tened him to post. But Beelze- bub quietly butted the post down, and then deliberately proceeded to take in the rope. He swallow ed it all up to his leg, and was be- ginning on that when Patsey dis covered him, and cut the rope. MT. Conly was obliged to give Beelzebub a holiday now and then.

He reared up on his hind legs and pranced about in perfect frenzy of joy. He shook his head and made several faints of bearing down the pail, as if revelling a while in sweet ex- pectancy. Presently Belzy waltz ed back a little further. He threw his head down and with bl-a-a-t that expressed all the unadulter- ated cussedness of his nature, went for that pail as if he had been shot out of a cannon. He struck it like @ battering-ram. There was a sound as of a thun- der clap, and by the pieces of goat, rock and earth that fell thickly about, Patsey knew that Beelze- bub had been deceived. and would never, never butt dinner pail more. Belzy had butted a can of nitro-glycerine.
