"Curly and Floppy Twistytail; the Funny Piggie Boys"


"Where's the surprise?" asked Edna, as she took off the
handkerchief.
"There he goes," said Curly Tail, showing her the alligator, who was
swimming away, and Edna was glad she had not seen it when on the
boat or she knew she surely would have fainted. Then she went on to
her grandmother's, after thanking Curly Tail, and the little piggie
boy went back to the bungalow.
And on the next page, if the boys don't take my cocoanut cake for a
football and roll it up hill, I'll tell you about the piggies and
the dinner party.


STORY XXV
THE PIGGIES AT THE PARTY

One day a nice lady stopped in front of the house where lived Curly
and Floppy Twistytail, the two piggie boys, and called to them as
they were playing football in the yard.
"Is your mamma in?" asked the lady, as she looked to see if her
earrings were dingle-dangling.
"Yes," replied Curly Tail, "she is. Would you like to see her?"
"Indeed, I would!" exclaimed the lady, as she blinked her two eyes
and laughed in a jolly fashion.
