They Walked the Tight-Rope Together
The crowd cheered, and every one wanted to go inside the big tent, of course.
Curly-Tail had a wonderful afternoon.
He rode on the horse’s backs in the ring, and he walked the tight-rope and danced on a big drum, but his most delightful adventure was still to come.
When the Circus was over, he went near one of the little side-show tents, and heard some one call out,
“To be a prisoner is not jolly,
And don’t you dare to call me ‘Polly’.”
