Nancy scolded Anybody would think that you had never seen a sheared flock before" ::1 haven't" Snowfall answered You're all so funny that I can't keep my face straight"
 "Wel.' she said, you'll have 8 chance to laugh at yourself a little alter For you'll certainly be sheared, too"
 Snowhall turned sober instantly. "Oh, Do you think so?" he cried, They'll never let you keep that fleece on all summer" Aunt Nancy declared.
 She had scarcely finished speaking when Farmer Green came into the pasture. And Snowball was sure that Farmer Green looked directly at him. But before Snowfall could make up his mind to run, Johnnie Green came hllrrying after his father. and shout ing.
 Don't touch Snowball," he called. Don't you shear him"
 Why not 2" his father asked him
 Because" :" said Johnnie, "I want 10 shear him myself. He belongs 10 me"
 Very we'll" his father replied Now we're here we may as well catch him. And you can begin shearing him, It will probably take you all day, because you've never sheared n sheep before"
 T don't want to shear him now" said Johnnie. I'm going fishing to- day I'll do it tomorrow"
 Then Farmer Green and Johnnie went away And they hadn'tS passed the bars when q. great uproa% broke out. The whole flock crowded around Snowball And everybody except him said "Baa."
 He laughs best who laughs last" Aunt Nancy remarked to him. To morrow we'll laugh best---at you!"
 But Snowfall stood his ground and shook his head
 "'m not going to be sheared," he declared. T guess you don't know what Johnnie Greens tomorrow means. . It means 'never'."
 Snowfall really thought he was right about that.
 The next morning he found that he had been mistaken. For Johnnie Green came and cornered--and caught him And amid a chorus of haas, Johnnie led Snowfall to the barn.
 Let's wait at the bars until Jol1n- nie brings Snowfall back" cried the young black rAm. who had knocked Snowfall down the day before. We want to give him 3 good welcome when he comes back without his fleece"
 Its useless to wait" said Aunt Nancy. You know Farmer Green said it would take Johnnie all day to shear him
 Along toward noon the black ram came hurryine to the upper end of the pasture. where most of the sheep were feeding.
 "Snowball's here;" he blatted. And he's sheared, tool"
 And just then Aunt Nancy Eve

A MYSTERY.

As Snowfall drew near the pasture bars. he forgot about the blow on the head that the black ram had given him. The strange sights that greeted his eyes drove all unpleasant things out Of his mind.
 Snowfall knew that the sheep he saw before him must be his old com panions But they were SO changed by shearing. that he couldn't tell who was who.
 He stood still and stared at them and grinned.
 What amuses you, young man?" one of them asked him in tart voice. The speaker was a big, old dame. Even with her fleece closely cropped she looked undeniably fat. Yet she was wrinkled. too. And her neck had q acrawny look.
 Not until she spoke did Snowfall guess that this person was Aunt Nancy Eve. The moment he heard her voice he knew her. And he couldn't help laughing right in her ace
