 When Alice reached the duckpen that night, after she had gone visiting Sister Sallie, and was brought home by the puppy dogs, she told her folks all about it.
 
"Jackie and Peetie Bow Wow, eh?" remarked Jimmie, her brother, when she had told their names. "I never heard of them. They must be new around here."
 
"They are," answered Alice. "But they are just as cute as they can be; really they are."
 
"Cute, eh?" asked Jimmie. "Can they play ball?"
 
"I don't know," replied his sister. "But you ought to see them pull on that old boot and the bone! Oh, it was too funny!"
 
"And they took good care of you, didn't they," asked Lulu.
 
"Indeed, they did," answered Alice. "They weren't afraid of anything, even when an owl1 hooted2."
 
So the next day, which was Saturday, when there wasn't any school, Jimmie started off with his wooden bat over his shoulder, his catching3 glove under one wing and his ball under the other.
 
"Where are you going?" asked his mother.
 
"I'm going over to Mrs. Bow Wow's house to see if I can find the puppy dogs," he said. "I want to get acquainted with them."
 
"All right, Jimmie, but be sure to wipe your feet if you go in Mrs. Bow Wow's house, and don't forget to take off your cap and say 'yes, ma'am,' and 'no, ma'am,' Jimmie."
 
"S'posin' she doesn't ask me anything?" inquired Jimmie. "What'll I say?"
 
"Well, then, of course, you needn't say anything; but be polite," warned the little boy duck's mother, for sometimes he forgot, though he didn't mean to.
 
Well, he was walking along through the woods, and over the green fields where the dandelions were just coming up, looking like buttons on a policeman's coat, if the policeman's coat was green instead of blue, and I think green would be a nice color. But no matter about that.
 
Jimmie was walking along, when, all of a sudden, he heard a little growl4. At first he thought it was the bad fox after him again, but in a moment he saw a little black ball of fur rolling along, and then he saw a little white spot, and he thought that might be Sammie Littletail, only he knew the rabbit boy never
