And they were talking about Bunny's brave act, in stopping the pole of the tent from falling down. "You and Sue go and get ready for what you are to do," whispered Bunker Blue to the two children. "I'll tell you when it's your turn to come out on the stage." "All right," answered Bunny. "Come on, Sue. Now's the time for our secret."
You must listen just for a minute. Jake, Jake won't want you to be engaged to me." "What?" Bunny started a little, as one who suddenly remembers a thing forgotten. "Jake!" Then hotly. "What the devil has it got to do with Jake?" "Stop!" said Toby. "Jake's quite right. He knows. He he's older than you are. You you you'd better ask him." "Ask Jake!" Bunny's wrath exploded. "I'm my own master.
Thad, it's gone the thief got away with poor Bunny's money!" he was exclaiming, his voice full of horror. "Well, he would have hooked it, only for something I did that you'd have called silly if you'd seen me!"
All the children who were to take part in Bunny's and Sue's show were in the barn, waiting for the curtain to be pulled back. For grandmother and Mother Brown had made a calico curtain for the children. Bunker Blue and Ben said they would stand, one on either side, to pull the curtain back when the show started.
I told Bunny I'd show him how the Indians roast the ears of green corn to-morrow, if you'd let me." "Oh, please, Momsie, do!" "Oh, Daddy, let him!" The first was Sue's plea, the second Bunny's, and the father and mother smiled. "Well, I think it will be all right if Tom is as careful about fire as he is on the water," said Mr. Brown.
"I suppose not," agreed the Candy Bunny. Then the Rabbit and the Cat became good friends and told each other stories there in the dark closet. "My! you certainly have had some adventures," mewed the Cat, when she had heard about the Bunny's trip on the tail of a kite. "Did nothing exciting ever happen to you?" the Rabbit wanted to know. "Yes, once," replied the Cat.
Fred and Dix were always together, and I guess Fred couldn't have run away if Dix had seen him. So if we take Dix along, and have to look for Fred in big crowds, Dix'll come in 'specially handy." "Oh, won't that be fun!" cried Sue, clapping her hands. "Do let's take Dix along!" "I believe Bunny's plan is a good one," said Mr. Brown, after thinking about it a while.
"Maybe he went away off down the street, or maybe he is out in the barn." There was a barn back of the Brown house, in which Bunny's father kept some horses used in his business. The children often played in the barn, especially on rainy days, when they did not go up to the attic. "Let's look in the barn," Charlie went on. "It wasn't fair to hide out there," Helen said. "That is too far away."
The rooster was getting tired now, and could not go so fast. Neither could Bunny nor Sue, and Bunny's arm was so tired, from having thrown his lasso so much, that he wanted to stop and rest. But still he wanted to catch the rooster. "Here he comes now get him, Bunny!" cried Sue, as she went around one side of the currant bush, while Bunny came around the other side.
"Lookee there now," cried Crawley. "I choked the ferret off, but never touched the rabbit. I took the rabbit with a pair of tongs; the others had handled their baits and pug crept round 'em and nosed the trick. I poured twenty drops of croton oil into the little hole ferret had made in bunny's head, and I dropped him in the grass near pug's track.
