"I'm a Udti 1 am"
your life. I can tell that by the
way you act." And she whinnied
in a most unpleasant fashion,
"What Hall I say to her?"
Twinkleheels asked Ebenercr. "She
hasn't apolobized to me."
"Pay no attention to her." the old
horse advised him in an undertone.
"She'a a low-bred person. I've
often met her on the road and she
always wants to stop and talk. But
I hurry past her."
"What are you saying?" the white
mare asked in a sour tone.
"Are you gossiping about me?" She
laid her ears back and showed her
yellow teeth.
' iou tee why I don t care to have
anything to do with her," Ebenezer
muttered to Twinkleheels.
"I'd kick you if I could reach
yon and. that pony too," the white
maresquealed. "I'm a lady I am.
And you'd better be careful what
you say about me."
Because she was angry, and
couldn't kick either Twinkleheels or
Ebenezer. she felt that she must
kick somebody. So she let fly at
the blacksmith, who had just stepped
up beside her.
Strangely enough, instead ot
jumping away from her, the black
smith crowded as close to her as he
could get. He knew what he was
about. He hadn't shod horses for
20 years without learning something
about them. He stood so near tne
white hiare that her kick hadn t
room to get going well. And the
blacksmith wasn t hurt. He was
merely disgusted.
"I declare," he said to farmer
Green, "this mare is the meanest
critter that comes into my shop. She
doesn't know anything except how
to kick and bite. That old horse
of yours is worth a dozen like her.
I'd give more for his tail than I
.would for her."
Ebenezer tried to look unconcern
ed. The blacksmith had a hearty
voice.' Nobody in the shop could
help hearing what he said. And
Twinkleheels made up his mind that
the blacksmith shouldn't have any
reason to speak of him as he had
of the silly white mare.
Twinkleheels watched sharply as
the blacksmith captured a hind foot
of the white mare, and held it be
tween his knees. Then the smith
began to nail on the shoe.
One thing , puzzled Twinkleheels.
Every time the blacksmith struck a
blow with his hammer he gave a
funny grunt. Twinkleheels nudged
Ebenezer with his nose.
"Do you hear that?" he asked. "Is
he related to Grunty Pig a sort of
cousin, perhaps?"
The old horse Ebenezer gasped.
"Bless you, no!" he exclaimed.
"Then why does he grunt?"
i "Oh, that's just a way he has.
said Ebenezer. "Some blacksmiths
think it's stylish to grunt like, that."
. By this time the white mare
ieemed to be in a pleasanter frame
cf mind. At least, she let the black
smith nail a shoe on each of her feet
without making any objection ex
cept to switch her tail now and then;
And just as the blacksmith finished
tfith her a man- came and led her
awav.
i "Now," said the blacksmith, "I'm
ready to shoe the pony. And if
he's as clever as7 he looks I shan't
have a bit of trouble with him."
When he heard that, Twinkleheels
made up his mind that he would
behave his best, no matter what
happened.
