was suspended from springs and the mo-

ruped to his horse and the animal started
and pushed them along at a lively gait.
Sandy laughed for joy Its like going

They had been riding for some minutes
when the latter uttered a cry of terror.
"Whats the matter?" asked Sandy
who had heard nothing more dreadful
than the miaowing Of several cats.

the rats. but that isn't the wrcse thing

II was now Sandy's turn 20 be increlu-

was so great that at last the miaowing OF

earth. Sandy thought that he was not
nearly as pleasant as the Green Boy Of
Harrah, and he began to think about re-
turning.
The horse had dropped into a gentle trot
and Sandys quick ear heard the miaow
ing of the cats again. They had evidently
not given up the chase and Sandy was
glad of it, He had Ave cats at home ana
could do about as he liked with them, and
he wasn't afraid of any cat that ever pur-
red. But the terror of the lath-boy when
he heard the sound was awful to see.
