1. Piggledy Porker, from the farmyard, had been telling tales to Dr. Lion, and the Jungle boys were awfully mad about it. “I’ll pay that young sneak out!” exclaimed Jumbo one afternoon. “Come along, you fellows, and see me have some fun with him." “What are you going to do?” inquired Rhino; “put him in the barrel?” “Ah! you must come and see for yourself,” replied the elephant. And off they all trotted to a street where they knew they should meet Piggledy coming home from school. 2. Arriving at the spot, Jumbo put his barrel in the middle of the payement. Presently young Porker appeared on the scene. He looked rather frightened when he saw the crowd of boys, but when Jumbo told him they had only been having a little fun, trying to jump into the barrel without knocking it over, he looked relieved. "Look here, Porker,” said Jumbo, in a friendly tone, "if you can jump into the barrel without touching it with your hands I’ll give you this-big bag of toffee.” Piggledy’s eyes sparkled with delight. "Right you are.” he said; “I'll do it easily.” And, taking a few steps backwards, he ran forward and leapt into the air.
