Sonny did not dare to respond but lay with his
nose on his paws unstirrng while the child sprawled
over him. After few minutes this utter unrespon-

jumped up and cast his eyes about in search of
diversion more exciting: His glance wandered out
past the barn and up the pasture toward the edge
of the forest. squirrel, sitting on black stump
in the pasture, suddenly began jumping about and
shrilly chattering This was something quite
and very interesting The Kid crawled through the
bars and started up the pasture fast his sturdy
little legs could carry him.
The squirrel him coming, but knowing very
well that he was not dangerous, held his ground,
bouncing up and down the stump in vociferous
excitement. When the Kid was within three feet
of him, he gave wild " K-r-r-r-r!" of derison, and
sprang to another stump. With eyes dancing and
eager little hands outstretched, the Kid followed
again and again. and yet again-till he was LED to

edge of the woods and stood looking through the

at all. But in reality he watching with an
anxious intentness, every the little one made

But when at last the Kid wriggled through the

sohcltude became more personal He knew that
the forest place of many strange perils. 1t
was no place for the Kid. sudden fear seized him
at thought of what might happen to the Kid, there
in the great and silent shadows. He broke into
frantic run, scrambled through the fence picked up
the little adventurers trail, and darted onward till
he caught sight of the Kids bright curly head ap

sight he stopped abruptly, then sauntered forward
with careless air, as if it the most ordinary
chance in the world that he should come across the

Instinctvely, under the subtle influence of the
