"I would just to know where that blamed old goat is, anyway. I'm tired lookin' fer him. said Sam in disgust as the two men angrily tramped to- ward the village.
 Tired, ara you?" remarked Taua. I'm knock-kneed, hump-backed, squint-eyed and bald-headed from tryin' to get on his trail Knock kneed from walking so many miles; hump-backed from crawling and sleeping under fences; balc-headed from rubbing my head so much to see if I could not rub an idea out of it as to where tolook for him; and squint- eyed from looking in every corner in which a goat could possibly hide. Speakin' of hide, I'd like to hide him when I get him for givin' us the slip"
 If he'd stayed in that car," said Sam, ''by now we would have been walkin' on velvet, wearin' silk, drink in, ice cream Sodas, aand snokin' 70 cent cigars with the money we'd got out of selling him. Darn him! pull every hair out of his long beard when we do catch him."
 And thus the two kindappers talked and growled as they made their way to town.
 'sWThere shall we look for him next?'' asked Tom.
 think" replied Tom, that we'd better go back to the railroad and inspect the farms that lie adjoining. I think he'd be more likely to stay on one of them than to wander as far as the farm we've just come from"

Yes, and it's my opinion that he may be there now for all we know. If we hadn't been such big chumps we'd a stayed there and not run off all on account ot seem a crazy man in the moonlight. There were two of us, and we should have staved and knocked his old head off, so we shou1d!''
 "Oh, yes, you're mighty brave now you're two miles away from him" :" replied Tom in a sarcastic tone-
 "Gee, what's that?" and Sam jump ed to the middle of the road as if he had been shot, for he had heard a queer noise in the bushes beside the road. and he thought the crazy man was still after him. But the noise turned out to be only a horse in the bushes that had happened to sneeze-
 ..TlI tell you what we'll do, Sam We'll go to town, beg some old clothes from the people in the supufoS' peg something to eat, and then hike 1t for the railroad. And we will begin once again to hunt for that goat and I'm not goin' to give up until l md | him if I drop dead hunting for him. Are ye with me, Sam?'
