There were once a King and Queen, who were very unhappy at not having any children, more unhappy than words can tell. Vows, pilgrimages, everything was tried, but nothing was of any avail; at length, however, a little daughter was born to them.

When Bob was sure that there was no mistake, that Jerry was again in the land of the living, he rolled to one side, absolutely all in. “Please, please explain,” Bob implored. “I want to believe in him.” “I guess he thinks the Gringo got mixed up with a charge of dynamite!” was the boy’s reflection as he scuttled up to his room..
