The day turned out to be no greatly different from the one pre ceding. Again Ned worked to ab jsolute exhaustion: the only appar ent change seemed to be that he QQeommisnes a greater amount of fork before he finally fell sible in the snow.

And he was as pretty as a ple ture, too, with two broad white stripes across his throat, and white spots on his back beside his wee nubbin of @ tall, which was really no tail at all. One day he deliberately walked off from his mother, who wag very careful of him, and started on his travels. “I'm going to see the world,” hé said to himself. “I want to see what it's made of, and who lives on it, mmd what they know. I've got a hundred questions to ask.” So off he clattered on his four neat little hoofs, He followed the creek till he came to the plain. Then he went along and along and long.

That was a swamp spot near the civek where a lot of reeds grew. Andy was thirsty and took a long drink, When he looked up there was long-legged Mister Crane look- ing at him. “Ob, hello!” called Andy. “What's your name? And what's your horn |growing on the front of your face for instead of on top of your head, jand why have you two legs?
