stream encountered in the Batik land.
--Doctor Pino," he lished. "water is
good. I would not like to hs a camel,
who often must be ss dry as the desert
itself; though if I had as many stom-

BUT
"Drink, pretty Photo; drink

'Photo did not feel very happy after
lit-tiring this recital, however, and no
longer was ite thirsty. Yet he gained
ggni-age when Rosso who had rhsrg:

ieughingly remarked that the hippopota-
