Bedtime Stories
Old Man Coyote Lies Low
By Thornton W. Burgess
Who keeps control Of self IN hand,
Of destiny mag take command.
old Man Coyote.

Farmer Browns hens we're eating
their breakfast. Farmer Browns
COWS were eating their breakfast
Farmer Browns horses we're eating
their breakfast. Farmer Brown and
Farmer Browns Boy and Mrs. Brown
were eating their breakfast. And un-
der the stack Of straw in the barn
yard, so near that he could hear the
mems talking S they ate. and the cows
and the horses munching their food
and could smell the breakfast in
Farmer Browns house. Old Man
Coyote lay without any breakfast
at all.
By and by Farmer Browns Bow
came out of the house with Bowser
the Hound at his heels. Bowser's tail
was wagging. Once he ran in front
of his master and jumped up with
a little -yelp of JOY. In his hands
Farmer Browns Boy carried a heap
ing dish of food. Out near Bowser's
own little house he put it down on
the ground. 1t was Bowser's break
fast. Then he turned and went into
the barn.
1t was all Old Man Coyote could do
to keep from rushing out and taking
that breakfast away from Bowser.
No one lacking self-contro] and as

remained as he did, perfectly quiet,
while he watched that breakfast dis
appear. But old Man Coyote lay low.
He kept as still as if there were no
life in him.
II could take that breakfast away
from that Dog" said he to himse
Il could do it and get away. Good
ness knows I want that breakfast.
1t seems as If just must have it. But
if I rush out and take it it will be
only one meal and / will have given
my hiding place away. If keep that
secret and am patient may be able
to get many meals"
SO Old Man Coyote swallowed hard
and pretended it was food. and
watched Bowser gobble up that break
fast. All the morning he lay low under
that stack of straw and there wasn't
anything going on that he missed. He
made sure that Farmer Brown, Mrs.
Brown and their boy were the only
two-legged creatures living in the
house. This was important to know.
1t was very important, as you will
learn later. He found out that Bowser
the Hound spent much time in Farmer
Browns house. He found out that
