better. The persimmons had let up on him, and
he was lying back thinking it He's all
right now, Morris said. Leave him here till
Burke comes. We don't need him in the
p'rade' So got him truss of hay and left him
with it.
But Burke didn't come. Burke didn't come,
and the afternoon show did And it was up to me.
oh the elephants all right the old said.
He's as mild as milk. I'll send Eyres in with
you Go ahead Eyres was sort of assistant
keeper to Burke; but he wasn't anything but
gat-toothed New England mud puer that didn't
know any about orphan elephants than did.
l made him up from Burke's trunk and started
him off to fetch the brute, and l says to myself:
That's all right. Punch II think it's Burke, and
if he has any kick coming he'll take it out Eyres.
That lets out And put my grease, just
grinning at myself in the glass.
"When l comes around to the door to take the
turn | finds Punch waiting there with the big
ruffle around his neck and the bow his tail, as
meek as Sunday-school. He wasn't saying word
- just reaching out for tuft of grass here and
bit of paper there sort of turning things and
smelling around, end int rested in nothing at all
He lets on not to notice me when l comes up; but
stands off and keeps eye him, and pretty
soon | sees Mr.. Punch slide little wicked look
around at me; and when he finds watching him,
he gets double busy again blowing dust his back
and tanning himself with his ears. And | says
to myself: Here's where I'm going to do Japanese
juggling with a stick O dynamite, and | moves
over on the other side of Eyres
We'll that all right too. Eyres went
right ahead as if he had kitten on a string and
l kept my distance. We paraded into the ring,
making faces at the little CATERS the blues, and
we put out the table and the chairs, and started

his collar, and Eyres sat himself down and
Strengthened his collar, and Punch knocked off
Eyres's hat-the way Burke had taught him
and then Punch rang the dinner-bell, and l come
running up with the canvas-pie. And that's where
the trouble started
Il says to myself: There's something about
this pie t smells of persim1nons-or maybe it's on
my hands And then when l sees the way Punch
looks at it, | thinks: Me and persimmons are
located together for all time in that beggar's
memory, l guess He smelling around it.

to himself. And then he lifted the flap in the
crust and put his nose in, and instead of fishing
out the apples that ought to've been in there
but weren't in there because some hungry hobo
land found out who it was) had eaten
all the pippins and filled the cursed pie with green
persmmons-why Punch out with a snort and
grabbed the dinner-ben and began ringing it like
a house afre. That my to up with
a bucket of drink, and l run up most almighty slow
and when he saw me coming he put his two big
feet down the table and smashed it fiat, and
come over to smash
Say were you ever chased by a squealing
locomotive with lasso for cow-catCher? If
you ever are, don't try to dodge. | didn't

the seats and crawled out under the and
climbed a tree. And that tent was humming
like sawmill. There just one continual
and-mash of circus seats, and one unending
of Tennessee folks crawling out under the flaps and
hunting the horizon.
eff it'd been three-ringed show I'd "a stayed
longer; but | began to that Punch wasn't going
to take long before he'd sorted over that one-ring
collection of strangers and come my trail again
and the tree | wasn't high enough to
make feel easy. So | slid down and began
to beat lots into tall timber. And the first
l met Wally Burke, coming up from the
depot, off a freight. What the blazess up?' he
sings out And when l says 'Punch' he grabs
for me, and | lodged, and caught the caboose of
the freight, and went on to the next stop. |

nor Punch. When the circus next day,
they'd both quit and l was out of job"
He smiled regretfully Say but those were
the good old days, all right This theater busne
is good enough for chorus girls and glad-rag artists
but it dont-it don't smell right somehow Did
you smell circus when-Eh?"

l fear no foe. All man can do dare;
Where honor calls or duty bids go;

and gravel off busted pie that he'd gone back
for picking out clean place to bite into it.
The laugh that followed moved him to mild
interest He nodded. 1T all right for Burke.
He had alf-mile of pies to eat back over. But
didn't get blamed doughnut till got to the
lot and sat into parbroiled rooster in the cook
tent And that the second month we'd been
eating hen meat. | wouldn't We kicked on that
either, but there but to fondle
the elephant.
Il coaxed him up from the train to the lot with
hay fork, and when about there he broke
away and got into orchard, instead of steering
to the tent where he belonged. l caught him up
against tree and chained him by the hind leg
while he busy tearing off a branch to pick
his teeth with, and then | left him there and
hunted for the cook tent.
Il picked up persimmon near the fence. Did
any of you fellahs chew green persimmon?"
None of had.
He nodded again, grimly. There re
some people need touch of hard luck to mellow
'em up and that's the way with the persimmon.
1t amt right till it's been frost-bit. 1t looks
all right; it's yellow, and it tastes sweet at first;
but it draws up the inside of your mouth like the
lining of an old boot, and the water you drink
the it gets After the first two chews l took
out o mine, dropped it and ran for the cook tent
SOS to get something to eat before the 1ockjaw'd
shut up my main entrance altogether.
1.-The chicken was a tight fit. But I was getting
it down, all right, longways in Indian file, when
heard the squealing of whole menagerie of wild
elephants tearing each other limb from limb-and
| knew it that pup Punch. And it was. I'd
tied him to a persmmon-tree, and he'd stripped
a bari of green fruit off the low branches and
chew'd 'em up.
when l got to him, he sitting up on his
tail his mouth sucked in like a soth bear
begging peanuts, and his under lip trembling with
whimpers. He wringing his trunk the way
Burke had taught him to ring the dinner-bell in
act when he wanted drink, and he
about the Notwithstanding fool of infant
elephant a nursed.
"Of course | got scared, and started the crowd
fetching pals of water. And when he'd bowed
the first bucket down his orice, he let out new
sort of cramped whine, and the persimnons gripped
his pipes and he laid his fat sides and
blubbered and blew bubbles like kid with the
collie.
Say, that was before | was married. We were all
a lot of old bachelors the job We didn't know
what to do, and Punch wouldn't let try to learn.
AS soon as anyone got near him. he whipped out
