Eleanor's burro also seemed anxious to go in the same direction Noddy took, and followed in her footsteps. But Choko, freed from the detaining rope and not so worn by battling the gale with a rider to carry, made for a spot to the right of Noddy. Suddenly Eleanor screamed and pointed at Choko. "Oh, look quick! Choko! Choko!"

Noddy, brave little burro, quivered in dread of the elements sweeping about them, but she responded to Polly's call and fairly dragged the trembling Choko after her. The hurricane was now screaming about the peak and howling horribly through the fissures in the ice.

Apparently Noddy understood the need of a brisker step, for she started so that she soon out-distanced the others and Polly had to wait for them. As she waited impatiently, she watched the clouds sweeping down and along over the ice-fields. Then she remembered the rope hung on Choko's collar. She jumped off, grabbed it, and soon had Choko securely fastened to the end of the rope.

You never saw such specimen, elsewhere," added Polly, churking to Choko to hurry on. "Polly, why did Jeb over-load that poor little burro?" now asked Barbara, having lost her momentary interest in flora. "Choko isn't over-loaded at all. Of course it looks as if he had a great load to carry, but pans and woolen blankets look more than they weigh, you see.

Wonderful how kids howl when you understand knee-treatment. Choko is good too. Makes you black in the face and your eyes goggle out awful funny. Done with a silk handkerchief and a stick. Windos and benders go together and really want two fellows to do it properly.

The two beavers reached the clearing where Noddy and Choko were grazing, and the moment the boss saw the burros, he turned and snapped at the foolish scout that had brought him this journey for naught! But the subdued laughter from the girls made the beavers rush pell-mell into the pond to wonder whether burros could laugh like that!

"If Noddy can creep down, I'll save Choko without risk to myself," declared Polly, climbing in the saddle. "If Polly goes, I go too!" exclaimed Eleanor, turning her burro to follow Noddy. "Don't you dare! Nolla think of mother grieving for you, and me left alone in Colorado, helpless!" cried Barbara. "Now I'm going, anyway!

"In the tin dish just as it came from the oven!" added Eleanor, laughing. "Not quite like it was when it came from the oven, for such a shaken up mess of meringue and custard we never had at our table!" laughed Polly, seeing the condition of the pie from the shaking and falling it had had when Choko went over the cliff. "Any one want a slab?" asked Anne, laughing also. "No, thanks!

I'll be asleep again if we don't do something," exclaimed Eleanor. "All right, I'll saddle Noddy and you can have Choko. We will have to harness them ourselves now that Jeb is away, and the other hands are working on the ranch." "You're not going far, are you?" asked Anne, suspiciously. Polly laughed. "Not as far as we went yesterday." Mrs.
