“Yes, here he is,” piped a shrill, boyish voice from the doorway. All the uncles shook hands with Johnny very ceremoniously.

Knowing, however, that the officers who were in attendance upon her had received orders not to take her back, unless the King sent a special messenger, she kept her design secret, but ordered a small chariot to be built for her, in which there was only room for one, saying that she should like sometimes to accompany the hunt. She drove herself, and followed so closely on the hounds, that the huntsmen were left behind; by this means she had sole command of her chariot, and could get away whenever she liked.

“There! Now!” Eric cheered him on. “Reach farther out, Bub! She’s stirring a little. Farther out, I say.” “Mother, Mother!” roared Nils. “Hurry! There are thieves at the apples! Oh, hurry!” Jerry looked around again and laughed shortly. “We’ll be lucky if we’re there by to-morrow night. That cliff is twenty miles away at least.” Johnny smiled condescendingly. “You don’t know how strong I am, Uncle Isaac. Look at my muscle here.”.
