Most decidedly it will be better and safer to try for Bowser's dinner than to try for one of those hens." "Just as you say, Granny; just as you say," returned Reddy. "You know best. But how under the sun we can do it beats me." "It is very simple," replied Granny, "very simple indeed. Most things are simple enough when you find out how to do them.
Say, Bowse" the intimacy grew as the young man's talents loomed up in Muffles's mind "tell de gentleman what de boss said 'bout yer printin'." "Said I could print all right, only there warn't no more work." There was a modesty in Bowser's tone that gave me a better opinion of him. "Said ye could print all right, did he? Course he did and no guff in it, neither.
You see Bowser the Hound had discovered that something was going on around the corner of the shed, and he made such a racket that Mrs. Brown had come out of the house to see what it was all about. By the time she got around there, all she saw was the empty pan which had held Bowser's dinner. She was puzzled.
He felt that no other dog ever could take Bowser's place, and in spite of the fact that he thought he had given up all hope of ever seeing Bowser again, 'way down deep inside was something which, if it were not hope, was something enough like it to keep him from getting another dog in Bowser's place. Whenever he went about away from home, he kept an eye out for dogs in the farmyards he passed.
Slowly Prickly Porky unrolled, and his little eyes twinkled as he watched Bowser the Hound run away. "Bowser's very big and strong; His voice is deep; his legs are long; His bark scares some almost to death. But as for me he wastes his breath; I just roll up and shake my spears And Bowser is the one who fears." So said Prickly Porky, and laughed aloud.
Bowser's confusion, and the few words that had passed, returned to me. What was the connection between them? "Mrs. Knapp is not ill, I trust?" I ventured. "Oh, no." "Nor Miss Knapp?" "Oh, all are well at the house, but sometimes you know women-folks get nervous." Was it possible that Mrs. Knapp had sent for her husband? What other meaning could I put on these words?
Every once in a while Granny Fox would look behind and all about to be sure that no danger was near, but she didn't see Old Man Coyote. After what seemed to him a long time, he heard a door open on the other side of the shed. It was Mrs. Brown carrying Bowser's dinner out to him. Of course, Old Man Coyote didn't know this.
He was too tired and frightened to do much of anything else, anyway. Now when he lay still, he spoiled Bowser's fun, for it was seeing him jump and kick his long legs that tickled Bowser so. Bowser tossed him up in the air two or three times, but Grandfather Frog simply lay where he fell without moving. "Bow, wow, wow!" cried Bowser, in his great deep voice.
He felt safe for the time being, anyway, and he didn't propose to worry over the future. Jimmy Skunk hurried after Unc' Billy. It wasn't fear that caused Jimmy to hurry. No, indeed, it wasn't fear. He had been startled by the unexpectedness of Bowser's appearance. It was this that had caused him to struggle to be first through that hole under the henhouse.
"Mother's been dead this good while." "Oh, I'm so sorry," said Bert, in tones of genuine sympathy that went right to Frank Bowser's heart, and greatly strengthened the liking he had felt from the first for his new schoolmate. It was not long before he gave proof of what he thought of Bert in a very practical way.
