"It is to him I must go," said the Queen; "the fairies told me the evil, but they forgot to tell me the remedy." “That was tough,” said Bob sympathetically. “What’d you do then?” “At the Canyon?” asked Mr. Whitney. “I don’t see how you could. It is a pretty dreary place, if you have to be there long.”.
