The woman whom the people had given The Name Of Sorrow-mother was a very poor widow. She Has Seen Better Days, and was not accustomed to beg; she starved and suffered in silence, told her trouble only to the Dear Lord, and sought in Him alone to find the consolation she needed. Her Husband,who had been a tailor, died young and left her only one son. Like his father he was to be a tailor. This the boy's guardian has resolved upon, and he was the one to decide the matter...

Dietrich, the sheriff of Wildbach, who had once owned considerable property, had for several years been falling into bad ways and by this means had lost his position and his salary. His only occupation was cutting a few tufts of grass from his uncul-tivated fields, and carrying it home to feed his poor little goat; for himself and his foster-child there were only a few potatoes and a little milk. After dinner Dietrich would vanish and not appear again until toward night to milk the goat...

There were present at that season some that told Him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

Sniffy, the other little beaver boy, who was plastering up a hole in the dam with some mud, was so surprised at hearing Toto call that for a moment he did not answer. Then, when he had looked up and had seen his brother walking toward him, Sniffy cried: “Is it really you, Toto? Have you come back to us? Where have you been and what happened to you?” “Well, I really have come back, as you can see,” answered Toto...

Shut tightly in the cage on the deck of the houseboat, Toto looked across the water. The boat was moving slowly along. It was near the bank of the river, and some of the trees were so close that the boat brushed the branches as it moved along. Suddenly Toto heard a voice speaking to him in the beloved animal language he knew so well. “Hello there, beaver boy!” called the voice...

True enough, Toto, the bustling beaver, was caught in a trap. Some one had set the trap in the woods, covering it over with dried leaves so it could not be seen. And an apple had been put near the trap, so that it would attract, or call by its smell, some animal. And Toto was that animal. “Snap!” had gone the jaws of the trap, closing together on Toto’s leg, and the beaver boy was in great pain. “Oh, dear! Ouch! Oh, let me go!” cried Toto, in beaver talk...

Toto looked up in the tree from which the mewing noise came. There he saw a black cat. The cat sat in a place where a branch joined the main trunk of the tree, and Toto wondered why, if she got up there, she could not get down. “What happened to you?” asked the beaver boy. “A dog chased me,” was the answer. “I was out walking in the fields, and a dog ran along after me. I was so frightened that I scampered as fast as I could. Then I ran up this tree...

And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted Him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? He said unto him, What is written in the law ? how readest thou? And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.

By this time Bobbie had forgotten all about the tramps who took the jewelry. He was thinking only of catching Toto. “Oh ho! You’re a fine, fat one!” laughed Bobbie. “I’d like you for a pet!” “I’ve got to get away as fast as I can!” thought Toto. “I wish I had not come so far from the dam and the water back of it. If I could find some deep water now I’d dive into it and this boy chap couldn’t find me. I’d stay under a long time...

Toto, being only a beaver, did not know very much about the different things that men do. Toto knew how to gnaw down trees, how to strip off bark when he was hungry, how to dig canals for the water to run in and float logs for the dam, and he knew how to help make dams. But he never thought of going into another beaver’s house and taking the bark which that beaver had stored away...
