Chunky averred that all the stock had run away. Still there seemed nothing left for the two to do except remain where they were until the return of the others of the party. They would have been sure to lose themselves had they ventured away from camp in the darkness. Both paused suddenly when they observed the figure of a man tied to the back of Jo-Jo. "What's this?
Natica acted as if she were entertaining in earnest, and for the time being I actually think she felt that she was. She got the Hartopp to sing her "Jo-Jo" song, and the Hartopp actually did it as if she enjoyed it. Afterward Natica induced "Boiler-plate" to tell about the time he mixed it up with Fitzsimmons for ten rounds.
Tad first coaxed the pony by patting it gently on the side of the head, to which the intelligent animal responded by brushing his cheek softly with its nose. "See, he knows a thing or two," cried Tad. "Now, watch me!" Standing off a few feet, the boy tapped the animal gently under the chin with the whip. "Up, Jo-Jo! Up!" he urged, lifting the whip into the air insistently.
Teresa Gambardella, a young girl of twelve, mentioned by Lombroso, was covered all over the body, with the exception of the hands and feet, by thick, bushy hair. This hypertrichosis was exemplified in this country only a few months since by a person who went the rounds of the dime museums under the euphonious name of "Jo-Jo, the dog-face boy." His face was truly that of a skye-terrier.

But then, all the ponies are worth having," added Ned, realizing that he was placing the others ahead of his own little animal. "What do you propose to do with that fellow over there, guide?" "Depends upon you young gentlemen.
One of them, I think, would make an excellent mate for Jo-Jo, if you are considering getting another one for Walter to drive or ride." "No, I was not thinking of doing that at present. I will tell you what I propose to do, however." "Yes, sir." "I propose to send you out to the McCormicks' this afternoon, if you can spare the time.
"What is the meaning of all this disturbance? First, my tent goes up into the air; then you all disappear, though where I am not advised. And now, you return with a man tied to a pony." "The man's a thief " began Ned. "It was this way, Professor," Tad informed him. "I saw some one walking away with Jo-Jo and Texas. I ran after and caught up with the fellow. Then the others came and we nabbed him.
He could, of course, have pointed out that he had merely nodded in adhesion to the statement that the other had a face like Jo-Jo the dog-faced boy; but something seemed to tell him that a purist might consider the excuse deficient in tact. He hesitated a moment, then handed over a ten-dollar bill, the price of Willie's feelings. Willie withdrew like a tiger slinking from the body of its victim.
He stepped inside, and spoke to them: "Good dogs! good dogs! good Musket, Coffee, Filthy, Jo-Jo steady, steady, idiots!" for the huge brutes were nosing him, throwing themselves against: him, and whining gratefully.
