fresh amusement. she tripped across
the room and standing upon the fam
der turned her attention to the orna-
ments upon the mantelsheh.
The shells attracted her to begin
with. and she put first one and then the
other to her ear and listened to the
story-an about themsalvss-which

not until the second shell was half

AnnabePs glance felI upon the China
Dog and she was 50 struck with his
appearance. that she promptly put her
entertainer back IN it's place, with a
hump which was great shock to its
feelings. and lifting the dog with both
hands sat down upon the hsarthrug TO
examine him. She looked him all over
from the s1iank points Of bis dropping
ears to the black tip OF his curly tail
and then she looked him all over again
from the tip OF his tan to the points
OF his ears. After that she counted
his black spots twice over, putting her
fingers on each to make sure of miss
Ing none, and polished his collar
which II It was not real gold certainly
looked very much like diminishing her
examination by pressing warm kiss
on his cold black muzzle-

to have to stay In dark room on q

but a pair Of shells to speak to.
Shouldn't you like to come out OF doors
and play with met" And without wait
ing for the China Dog TO collect his
senses sufficiently to express an opin-
ion on the subject, she wrapped him
in her ptnafore and ran from the room.
He heard two gasping cries from the
nanteIshelf as he was borne away;
one sounded like 'sWen. neveF!" and
the other was certainly FANCY"
For the next few minutes the China
Dog was jolted to such an extent that
he really could not have told when
his head and when his tail was upper
most but at last the shaking ended IN
bump. the pinafore was unrolled. and
he found himself lying upon his back
and staring up at something green,

She moved the dog slowly as she spoke,

green meadow In front; but, before she
had turned him quite round something
happened which caused her to drop
him just as suddenly as she had

he.
The poor China Dog, who had sat all
night in silence, because he was too

shivered as he heard these words.
Tears dripped from his pale blue eyes
and trickled over his golden collar; and
cold drops Of perspiration believed his

scurry and a scramble the Rabbits
bolted to their burrows, the shining
