"There, there," cried the big-hearted woman, "of course it did." Hiding her laughing face in Ringdo's long fur, Erie reassured him. "Please, Doctor Allworth, don't be frightened of this old coon," she said. "Indeed, he is quite harmless." "How," he exclaimed, "I am always being disappointed! If you turn off at the bridge I shall not be allowed more than ten minutes' talk with you." "Gollies!" exclaimed Maurice. "It's your rabbit foot charm. Where d'you find it, Bill?".
