An altogether adorable if somewhat familiar camel was the old black cow.,“Oh!” interposed Betty, “but they didn’t throw a sorft stone. I don’t b’lieve in sorft answers no more.”,“No, my son.” The answer was more sincere than a few weeks before she could have believed possible.

Then having run the gamut of dumb playmates, she called for her beloved friends.,“That’s no giant. She isn’t bigger’n a kid. Will she let you come to play?
