A yellow cur, of nondescript breed, taken since the fire, in payment of a debt from "Squealer" Wixon, who had described it as a "fust-class watchdog," rose from its bed behind the cigar counter, yawned, stretched, and came slinking over to greet its master. "Web" forcibly hoisted it out of the door on the toe of his boot.
"We shall all be delighted. Hush, hush, Squealer, while your clever brother sings to us." Buster folded his paws in his lap and sang very sweetly: "Traps are our enemies, Old Tom Cats, too; Watch out for Norah's broom, When she cries Shoo! "Although the cheese smells nice, Nibble it not; Wise little mice you see, Ne'er will be caught."
"How about that, Barney you being a stool and a squealer?" he demanded. "I tell you it's all a lie a damned lie!" cried Barney with feverish emphasis. "I hope it is!" breathed Old Jimmie. This was a subject Barney wanted to get away from. "Maggie," he demanded, "is what Larry Brainard said about how he came here the truth? his seeing you on the street and then following you here?"
One fine day, when Mother Graymouse had taken Baby Squealer down cellar to call upon Aunt and Uncle Squeaky, and Limpy-toes had been sent to the store across the street, they planned a pleasure trip of their own. "Silvy and Limpy-toes often visit the playroom and have a lovely time," whispered Tiny. "Let's go, you and I." "Let's go!" agreed Teenty, clapping her paws.
She had helped Mammy sweep the floor, had wiped the dishes, and rocked Baby Squealer to sleep. She did not wish to sew any more patchwork squares. She could hear Ruth Giant laughing softly in the play-room. "I'd like to be Ruth Giant's pet," she thought wistfully. "That strawberry jam cake was lovely and so were the chocolates and pop-corn. I mean to visit her again.
"But we've got to get around that next turn in a hurry." "Why?" "It's a wicked corner," said Charlie. "I might as well tell you then you won't squeal if anything happens." "Oh! Do you think I am a squealer?" she demanded rather tartly. "I don't know," and he grinned again. He was an imp of mischief, this Charlie Bragg, and she did not know how to take him.
"How shall we ever manage to get it home?" she asked. "I know," planned Buster. "Let's eat it right here. That is a nice easy way." "Oh, no," said Silver Ears. "The Giants might come back, or old Tom. Besides, I want Limpy-toes and Squealer and Mammy to share our goodies. We will untie the string and take out the candies.
He turned to Barney with a last shot; he could not leave the gloating Barney Palmer his unalloyed triumph. "I told you I had the straight dope on you, Barney. Here's some more of it. I know exactly what your game is, and I know exactly who your sucker is. We'll see if you put it over you squealer! Good-night, all." With that Larry walked out. Old Jimmie regarded his partner with suspicion.
Don't let it bite me!" cried the old gentleman rabbit, and he tried to get out of the way, but he slipped on his broomstick crutch and fell down, and a piece of prickly holly fell on him and tickled him so that he sneezed. "Look at my steam engine!" cried Flop Ear. And he started it going, and all of a sudden it darted right for Grandpa Squealer. "Stop it! Hold it!
Do that if you can, Squealer." "You can't do it yourself," a whining voice replied. "I've tried the back and the corners and the edges there's no more room " Then came the sound of a sudden smack, as if some one's ears had been boxed when he least expected it, and this was followed by a loud angry squawk.
