But the farmer when he saw Mad
ans pretty clean children decided he
would let Madam and her babies out
of the mussy pigpen and let them run
in the orchard and make their home
where they liked for the summer.
One day spick and span Madam with
her five pink piggies wandered about
the orchard and the field and when
night came they all went to sleep be-
hind an old shed where there were
plenty of dried leaves.
Not far away was the poultry house
where all the hens and chickens slept
and Mr.. Rooster also.
The door was closed but a window
where the glass was broken was plenty
large enough for Mr.. Fox to get through
when he climbed to the top of the stone
wall.
In the middle of the night Madam
Pig awoke and looked right at Mr..
Fox, who was standing on his hind
legs with his front paws on the sill OF
the broken window.
He was looking at the sleeping fowl
and selecting the one he would carry
off before he made spring.

moment Mr.. Fox had his head inside
the poultry house so he did not heal
her as she came close beside the wal
on which he stood
"Ugh," went Madam Pig and theI
she gave loud long "Squeal." Out
came Mr.. Fox's head with such. forct
