"Great day! What a lot of fun I must have had before I got that milk pail into that shape," he said.

"Domned if I don't go straight to town and buy another one; yes, bedad! I'll buy two!" In the meantime Dannie milked, fed and watered the cattle, and Jimmy picked up the pail of milk and carried it to the house.

Dannie came by the wood pile and brought in a heavy load.

Then they washed, and sat down to supper.
"Seems to me you look unusually perky," said Jimmy to his wife.

"Had any good news ?" "Splendid!" said Mary.
