At last. when Mrs. Robin gave up
in despair. jolly began to feel some
what uncomfortable. And he tried
to get Major Monkey to go and ask
old dog Spot to come to the orchard,
instead of waiting there uncertainty
for days and days.
But Mario Monkey would not con-
sent to such a move. He was quite
firm.
Il don't want to ask old Spot to
give me a ride" he explained.
''Then how do you ever expect to
get one?" jolly asked him anxiously.
"Oh, there's a way!" was the Ma
jor's mysterious reply. And that was
all he would say.
The longer Jolly Robin waited to
see the fun, the more excited he be-
came, and the more Major Monkey
seemed to enjoy himself.
"Old dog Spot ought to be here
soon," ths Major kept saying. 81 can
see him now. No! I'm mistaken"
Jolly Robin had so many disap-
pointments that one morning when
the Major cried out that a last old
Spot was actually crawling through
the fence, and would be in the or
chard in about a minute and a half,
Jolly couldn't believe him.
It was true, nevertheless. To Jol-
ly's delight, old dog Spot came dart
ing in and out among the apple trees,
with his nose close TO the ground.
He was following a trail made by
Tommy Fox. who had visited the hem
house the night before. And he was
so intent on what he was doing that
never once did he glance up into the
apple trees, where Major Monkey
and Jolly Robin were watching him.
Major Monkey dropped quickly
down to a low hanging limb. And as
luck had it. Tommy Fox's trail led
old dog Spot right under the tree
where the Major waited. hanging
gracefully by his tail and one hand.
AS old Spot passed below, Major
Monkey loosened his hold on the limb
and dropped squarely upon old Spots
back.
The moment he landed, the Major
dug his fingers into Spots long fur
and hung on grimly. And at the
same instant old dog Spot leaped high
into the air and let out a frenzied
yelp.
Jolly Robin was glad that his wife
was not present, for he knew that the
sight, and the sound too, could not
have failed to terrify her.
Old Spot seemed almost Il of his
mind. For a few moments the poor
fellow tore about the orchard n wide
circles, hoping in vain that he might
shake that strange load off his back,
But he soon saw that his ride chung
to him like a burr. And wheeling
suddenly, Spot shot like a streak out
OF the orchard and flew across the
meadow.
Just before he disappeared behind
a high knoll Major Monkey turned his
face over his shoulder and looked be-
hind. Then, holding on with one
hand, with the other he waved his
red cap at jolly Robin.
The next moment Jolly saw the
Major and his strange steed no more.
They're headed straight for the
river!" Jolly exclaimed. And he fell
so worried about his friend the Major
that though he went home at once.
his wife complained that his mind
wasn't on his work and that he was
more bother than help to her.
some time later Major Monkey
limped back to his home in the nav

A cold is simply an infamma-
ten of some part of the air pas
sages-throat, larynx or bronchial
tubes-just like a sore is an in
iammation of the skin. A long
continued cold means constant
Inflammation and this constant
Inflammation frequently weakens
the air passages so that they
become an easy point of attack
for invading germs Of more serious
diseases. A cold that hangs on"
therefore, is simply natures red
flag" indicating that there is
trouble below" and this warning
should never be neglected.
Nightly applications of Vick's
VapoRub will aid nature to clear
up that inflammation. Because
Vicks acts locally by stimulation
thru the skin to draw out the
inflammation, attract the blood
away from the congested spots
