Bob was hurt seriously. The rest

But, Hugh?
There he came walking down the

he had taken advantage of his po-

off the back end, leaving the rest
to plunge straight ahead.

THE STRANGE STORY
OF TWO BROTHERS

Once upon a time there was a
little boy whose name was Harry.
who had a brother by the name of
Paul. They both were about the
same age. Harry was nine and
Paul was 10. The brothers were
kind to each other. They both
wanted to pass papers SO they
started to do it. But they found
they did not make much. They
stopped selling papers and started
to go to hunt job in the city. AL
though they did not live in the
country or city they lived at the
edge of the city. 1t was about a
half mile to their work. They
got along fine at first and so
bought a place for their mother
and them to live. The place was
pretty one with vines up the win
dow and rose bushes climbing up
the front and back porches.
They had become quite rich. BY
this time the boys were almost
men. One day they had party.
The day after as they were clean

20 steps ahead, crouched the wolf
ready to spring.
The little lamb came nearer. The
wolf crouched on his hind legs a
little more. opened his mouth, and
sprang; but instead of his teeth
closing on the tender morsel, he
felt himself pinioned on a pair Of
long. sharp horns.
But Billy was also surprised to
find on closer inspection that his
supposed wolf was not wolf at
all, but one of t. half-civilized
dogs from the plaC.., or Mexican
village. 1t seems that these dogs
will guard their own flocks from an
enemy. but will sneak out and eat
up any young lamb that strays from
the fold of a strangers flock.
After this the sheep were more
fond of Billy than ever and would
go anywhere he led them without
murmur.
