In vain they tried to catch him and slowly but surely he began to drift away from them farther and farther, and all they could do was to watch him fade out of sight. "Oh," cried Sweetclover, "we shall never see him again. "Will he be killed?" "I don't know," said Speed. "He's got a good chance of being picked up by a vessel, if he ever floats down south far enough."
"Can you speak Moonflower talk?" asked Sweetclover. "Yes," said Edelweiss. "Very well," said Kernel Cob, "we are trying to find Jackie and Peggs' motheranfather and we came all the way from the Earth on a parasol to do so. Maybe you can help us." "I would if I could," replied Edelweiss. "But I am afraid they are not here.
"Sit down here," said Kernel Cob, "and I'll see if I can find something for dinner." And he went along the beach. After he had walked a long distance, he found a tree with some nuts on it, and he picked a lot of them and put them in his hat and started back to Sweetclover. You may imagine his astonishment when he reached the spot where he had left her and discovered that she was not there.
I wouldn't be surprised to hear that I wasn't alive." "The nearest gold mine that I ever heard of in these parts," said Speed, "is in the Yukon." "Where's that?" asked Kernel Cob. "In Alaska," answered Speed. "Is that far?" asked Sweetclover. "Yes, it's a great distance from here, but if you like I'll take you there." "You're very kind," said Sweetclover.
"I'm Kernel Cob," said he, "and this is Sweetclover and Jackie Tar," and the cub came forward and shook hands with them, and really he had very nice manners for a bear who lived so far away from nice people and things. "You haven't told me what you are doing way up here."
"What did she do?" asked Kernel Cob, and his voice was slow, for you must remember that it took him a long time to think, because his head was heavy and so filled up with corn cob. But, like most people who are slow, he was very determined, and once he made up his mind to do a thing you might be sure he would do it, no matter what. "She lost her motheranfather," said Sweetclover.
And while they waited, the cricket told them of the strange country they were in and all about the canals and the windmills and the skating in the winter and the curious wooden shoes that the people wore. And when he had done, Kernel Cob and Sweetclover told him about Jackie and Peggs, their wonderful visit to the Moon, and how they came down in the field and were picked up by little Antje.
Up it went and up till it came to the top of a great wave, and then it would race down on the other side as if they were bob-sledding and great sport it was, too, out in the middle of the ocean, and Sweetclover laughed and even old serious Kernel Cob smiled and forgot all about fighting.
Allee same price like other doll." And Dorothy's father, being a very kind father indeed, and just the right kind of father for every little girl to have, bought them and Dorothy went down the road with the four dolls under her arms. And you may be sure that Sweetclover was happy, for they had not only escaped being ripped apart, but were all together, safe and sound.
Then a great clatter of talk arose from all the Japanese dolls, which sounded like a lot of chickens calling for their dinner; but Kernel Cob and Jackie Tar and the Villain and Sweetclover paid no heed to them, but only tugged the harder till they had the kite out into the middle of the road. "There are just four of us," said Jackie Tar. "Each man tar to a corner. Quick!
