The river ran close to the lav* home-

Five minutes later, when the hog

from the village and half a mi’e from
the nearest farmhouse, and It was a
gloomy outlook. She did not scream
at the top of her voice, but neverthe
less she had not been calling over live
minutes when she beard some one or
something approaching.
"Who is It and where are you?"
asked a voice, and then the girl knew
that it was uot the hog.
"This way. up this tree." she replle.1,

hoping it belonged to same steady old
farmer who could be sworn to silence.
