avoided farms and barnyards So they wandered about pretty hungry and pretty forlorn all tho the rest of that day But they never nevor wandered far tar faraway faraway away from fram the railroad track for their hope you ou remember was that they might fortunately find the hand tar ear ca back on tho track again and might night continue their travels on it At last when darkness began to draw on they turned th their lr Ir noses 4 toward the tho tl e railroad track and sure enough enogh no h was the handcar on the th track No o men were In sight strange to say so Mother Mather Pig hustled her

the drawing room where many candles were ablaze with lights and many mirrors reflected so 0 many apparently real and live Uve pigs that Mother Pig was wal filled with Joy and squealed a friendly How do you do This is as unexpected as it is de delightful Still not a human being in Eight And the reason was that a family wedding was going on In a neighbor neighboring bor borIng ing church taking a i of ot the house household household household hold away except the butler and the cook who just at that moment were ou at the back sharing some wedding cake caJe with the cook next door Peggy and

hurrying out of the drawing room they followed ed the tho direction of the squeals they had heard finding Billy and Jacky they at last nat in front front of a huge nuge uge thing with black and white teeth and a stool Mother Pig raised rallied her nose anti and touch touched ed the teeth then shrieked with min rein mingled mingled terror and delight at the flood of sounds bounds that came from them It was wag a piano you understand Then what did venturesome Billy do but clamber up on the stool whence he found he could easily reach the teeth with his sturdy forefeet And what sounds he produced from fr m them I And what thrills went through Mother Pig and the other three children fairly intoxicating them so that before they knew it they were wera circling and pirouetting pirouetting ting about on the floor In lit a sort of waltz And not one of them in the least dreamed of interruption till of a sud sod sudden sudden sodden den like liko a clap of thunder came the exclamation My gracious I What ave we ere erel from the doorway There was the butler amazement written all over his stupid English face Mother Pig set Bet up a shriek of at terror and rolled roIled off the sofa where she had thrown herself down to recover breath Billy BUlY Peggy and Eliza collapsed Into a pitiful heap on the floor while poor Jacky tumbling from rom off on the stool caught a leg between the theP pedals P dals and broke it ft alas Sho Sho Sho You dirty beasts roared the butler waving his arms about in a very yer threatening manner Now If Mother Pig had only known It Mr Butler would not for the world have touched her lest he should soil his im immaculate Immaculate immaculate maculate livery which had been donned especially for the wedding reception to follow the ceremony at the church But not knowing it and being In a frenzy of fright she let jet forth an ear earsplitting earsplitting earsplitting splitting squeal and bolted past the ap appalling app appalling palling p JUng

he had recovered his wits all the pigs were gone all that Is ex except except except poor crippled Jacky Well Hi do dp declare exclaimed the butler es a cunnin lookin beast so 50 soe soe e is And poor
