And it came to pass that when she
was full of years, a certain dog came
to her and pressed his nose against
| her hand, and her bosom was stirred,
and she loved him.
| In the first month, that is the month
Nissan, Mother Hubbard moved from
one fiat to another, there being within
it a certain cupboard, which pleased
her sight.
Now it happened on a time that she
went to the cupboard to get her poor
dog a bone.
And the dog was gathered together
on the outside waiting for something
to happen.
Then Mother Hubbard went in, and
fingered awhile.
And the dog, who visit not what she
was doing, barked as became him and
as he was wont. And Mother Hubbard

was on the seventh day, and the cup

And so the poor dog got none.

And now, like the clouds of the purple

ton a subtle gentleness for she felt
that the dogs eyes We're fastened upon
her, and in that fine alchemy of
thought transmission which we feel
inherently at times. she OWNED almost
instantly that the dog wanted a bone.
It was natural for her to reflect upon
her cupboard, whose shelves contained
nothing but the latest editions of the
Tribune, although she had reason to
believe that on one of them, on plate
which had been handed down to her

with faint blue spots and nicked in

The waterspout was common sight in summer

black cloud which settled in a long line parallel
to the horizon from which it would drop one or two
points like fingers These would fall half wav to
