'Well, said the neighbor, "what do

'We want a drink. Give ns a j 1

"Ton do. do you?" Inquired the
lghbor. "What do you say when

The well-mannered Sapphira looked
i at her with big. pleading ayes. "I
y please." she cooed.
"So do I. So do I." shrieked Ana
as. "Please give us a drink." 2
The neighbor doled out the water
Ith a sparing hand.
"What do you have the water In a
ittle for?" inquired Sapphira. "Why
>n't you give us the water that runs 1
it of the spout?" t
"lt might make you 111," returned
ie neighbor. 'It has microbes

"Has it?" Ananias asked, eagerly
nive me some. I Just love 'em. My
lother gives me lots of them. And
nee she gave me some water out

The neighbor hastily retired into

"My mother gave me some out of

;he added. "I want lt full up."
"Oh. you don't want any more."
:he neighbor asured her. "You've
tad all you need. You couldn't drink

"Once," said Sapphira, fixing her
eyes dreamily on nothing, "I drank
? whole bottle full without stopping
a minute, with my eyes shut."
"I drank a whole pond full once."
boasted Ananias, "with?with?my
mouth shut."
After this crowning effort he went
and sat down upon tho fireless
coeker.
"Is this a fireless cooker?" he
asked.
'"Yea," said the neighbor.
"We've got one at home Just Uki
it, only forty times as big. It'a big
enouch to hold a pig. Once we
cooked a cow in lt."
"WY cooked a nelephunt in ours."
Sapphira chimed in. "A great big
pink nelephunt."
"How remarkable." said the neigh?
bor, impressed. "I don't roo how you
got him in."
"Waa, just shooed him in." said Sap
pliira, airily. "And he was a grca
big neleplmnt."
"We've pot a great big tremendoui
tiger." Ananias said, briskly, "am
we keep him in the dishpan and b
has a green tall and a blue hoad an
purple feet."
"Our tiger" said Sapphira, casua
ly, "ls a Hon and we keep him in th

"A piano?" repeated the nelghbo
looking puzzled. "I haven't one 1

"Yes, you have," insisted Sapphlr
"Those yellow ones on the table."
The neighbor took up one of tl
bananas and looked at lt. "I thli
it's too green for you to eat," el
said

tively. "makes my mother eat fd

awfully sick, but he makes her

The neighbor opened the seri
