This little flurry of spring sdow is hard on the poor things. Can't you come in and sit for a spell?" "I'm afraid we can't stay," said Nancy. "We came on zn errand." And she told him all about the runaway shadow. "Well, sir!" Said the Jolly Cob- bleér, scrateling his head. "A little while ago I heard a terrible stamping outside my door. I couldn't go for a minute to see what it was, as I was fitting a thousand new pairs of shoes on the centipede, and when I weiit there was nobody there. But it may have been that shadow stamping to get in. It just may! Did he peed hoeing, do you know?" "I couldn't say,* sald the Whiffet. "He ran away so long ago that he's had time to be all over the world and back. And his shoes may be all worn out by this time."
