And. surely enough, when it was dark John-

"That's what we'll do!" agreed Bllile. And
when h»» hears It ticking and tacking he'll run

So the squirrel boys took some string, a pin
or two and a little nail from an old piece of
lx>ard. They crept up softly and fastened the
i pin and one «>ud of the string, with the dangling
[ nail, to I'm le Wiggily's window.
! Then Johnnie and Billie took the other long
end of the string far out in the hushes and
hid. When they pulled the string the dangling

"Ha. more Halloween trickf. I must go out

"Still hurting and suffering, I began
to use Thedford's Black-Draught, mak-

gradually got better, my liver began
to act, the fever went down and I have
never had any more trouble of this
