"Well, I won't lasso you very hard," promised Ted; "and I've got to learn to throw my rope at something that moves, the cowboys say, else I can't ever be a real wild-wester. Go on, Jan! Run along and let me lasso you!" Jan did not want to, but Teddy teased her so hard that she finally gave in and said she would play she was a pony for a little while.
"Course not!" cried Teddy. "I'll only lasso him a little. Now you come and hold him by the rope that's on his neck, Jan. And when I tell you to let go, why, you let go. Then he'll run and I can lasso him. I've got to lasso something that's running, else it isn't real wild-wester." Jan was ready enough to play this game. She took hold of the calf's rope, and Teddy got his lasso ready.
Once the rope went around her legs, and that time Teddy gave a sudden yank. "Oh, I'm falling!" cried Jan, and she went down in a heap. "That's fine!" cried Teddy. "That's regular wild-wester cowboy! Do it again, Jan!" "No! It hurts!" objected the little girl. "You pulled me so hard I fell down." "I didn't mean to," said Teddy. "But I can lasso good, can't I?"
