He can only run and dodge, and he has many enemies who can also do these things. So Jumper is a very timid giving out her blessings. He was thinking of this as he sat under a snow-covered little hemlock tree and rather pitying himself, which is a bad thing for any one to do. “All I can do is run, and I have to do that every day of my life or furnish some one a good dinner,” he grumbled “Old Mother Nature just forgot me when she was handing out her bless- ings.
