All the firemen had come out to

deal of laughing and racket in the

half an hour when his pet fireman
came out with a large plate in his
han heaped full with good things
to eat, and as he walked toward
Billy, the goat could smell the cab
bage. turnips, apples and carrots.
He bleated a friendly greeting to
let the fireman know that he would
not hook him If he came nearer
and the man came up and set the
plate down under Billy's nose and
Billy gave him goat smile show
ing that all was forgiven and began
to eat.
While he was eating this same
fireman went in and brought out
kettle with brush in it and began
to gid Billy's horns and hoofs.
Then he tied a wreath of roses
round his neck and went to get
rope wound with roses to lead him
by. But while he was gone, Billy
ate up the front of his wreath and
as much more of it as he could
reach.
When the fireman came back
dressed for the parade with the
rose chain in his hand that he was
to lead Billy with, he spied the eaten
wreath, and said:
why, Billy, you beat any bad
boy | ever heard of for mischief!
Now you will have to come into the
station and have another wreath
tied round your neck, and bet you
won't chew this one, for will tie
it so close to your neck you can't
reach it with your mouth"
AS they went into the station
Billy heard band playing and the
rat-tatah-tah of the drums. and
when they heard the music the en-
CINE horses, all decked in rose col
lars and brides, with plumes on
their heads, started to prance and
pull the beautifully draped and pol
ished engine out of the station to
join the procession.
And before Billy knew what was
up, he was led out and made to
march in the procession between
the engine and hose cart.
