Excerpt: ...If she went away only think of the things that might happen to her youngest family. You know how careless Birdie is with them." "That's so," with a sigh.

And the wise mother had always in mind the perils that lurk in the hoofs of horses, the wheels of wagons, and the hovering Pound-man; and never relaxed her vigilance in guarding her family against such dangers. "Well then, leaving out Mego, what dogs shall you use besides Kid, Tom, Dick, Harry, Spot, and McMillan? I told Ben that you would take Baldy." "Yes, Baldy, and probably Rex. I have been...
