all they did and how they did it. That
was wherein he was smarter than the
others.
Runty had formed the habit of fol-
lowing Unc' Billy about wherever he
vent. At first it bothered Unc' Billy,
but after while he rather liked it.
Sometimes it would happen that the
two would roam quite a distance from
the others and thus Runty had many a
tidbit which he did not have to share
with the others.
1t happened that early one evening,
before it was really dark. that they were
fhus off by themselves. Runty had
climbed a little way up in small tree,
while Unc' Billy was poking about be-
lew. Without any warning, there was a
rush of feet and what looked to Runty
like black-and-wh monster, with
wicked locking teeth made a rush at
Inc Billy. OF course, it wasn't a mon
ster at all. 1t was simply Flip the Ter
rier. Actually he wasn't such a very
great deal bigger than Unc' Billy, but

his legs were much longer, so that he
stood higher, and this made him look
much bigger.
That rush was so sudden that Unc
Billy didn't have time to run or tc
climb a tree. He was so taken by sur
prise that he didn't have time to move
before Flip was on him with open
mouth and had seized Unc' Billy by

Unc' Billy fell limp and apparently
lifeleSs on his left side, so that he was
facing Runty up in the tree. FLIP
sprang forward and stood over him
ready to shake him again If he moved
Unc' Billy didn't move. More than once
Flip had shaken a Rat to death in just
that way. But Unc' Billy was so much
bigger than the biggest Rat that Flip
ever had killed that he was surprised
and he showed it. He hadn't expected
it was going to be SO seasy.
Flip backed away few steps and
looked at Unc' Billy suspiciously. Then
he walked all around him, all the time
looking at him. There wasn't so much
as the witch of an ear or the motion
of an eyelid.

didn't so much as show his teeth, and
he has some good ones"
AS Unc' Billy lay there his mouth
was open and his lips drawn back, so
that his sharp teeth showed plainly.
His long fur was badly rumpled. He
was a forelorn looking Postum. Flip
walked over to him and shifted him all
over. He even poked his nose in one
of Unc' Billy's ears. 1t must have
tickled, but If it did Unc' Billy made no
sign. That ear didn't twitch the least
bit. Flip lost interest and presently
rotted away.
All this Runty saw. Never did a
more frightened little Postum live. He
was so badly frightened that had he
not been holding tightly to a twig by
his funny little tail he might have
fallen. He hadn't dreamed that such a
terrible thing could happen But it had,
and there lay his father without a sign
of life. Never had he felt so small and
helpless. He didn't even know where
his mother and brothers and sisters
were. He was just very small person
