JUNGLE JINKS.

MR. RHINO HAS AN-ARROW ESCAPE

1. Dr. Lion says “all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” When the Jungle boys are in school he makes them work hard, but he doesn’t forget to arrange nice games for them out of school. Here you see him in charge of the archery practice. “What’s this? Mr. Rhino come to see me?’ said the Doctor, as Jane, the maid, came out with a card. “Very well. I’ll see him in the garden.”

2. "You take charge of the archery, Jumbo, and don’t get into any mischief,” said the Doctor, as ho left. Bui when Jumbo caught sight of a robin sitting on the garden wall he quite forgot Dr. Lion’s instructions. "Who'll kill Cock Robin?’ piped Willy, the lion cub. “I.” said Jumbo, “with my bow and arrow, I’ll kill Cock Robin!”

“Whizz-z-z!” The arrow sped through the air, but Cock Robin didn’t wait to die. like the one in the nursery rhyme. He just hopped off, and Jumbos arrow went clean through Mr. Rhino’s silk hat. on the other side of the wall. "Now I’ve done it,” gasped Jumbo, all in a tremble, as he peeped over the wall. "There will be no more archery this term!" And hr was right. Dr. Lion was dreadfully angry about it.
