she wanted to see where she was, so she felt for the match-
box and took out a match and lit it. But the Mugger's teeth
had made holes in the kerosene tin, so that the flame of the
match caught the kerosene, and BANG!! the kerosene
exploded, and blew the old Mugger and Black Noggy into
little bits.

At the fearful noise Little Black Mingo and the Mongoose
came running out, and there they found Black Noggy and the
old Mugger all blown to bits.

So Little Black Mingo and the Mongoose got the nice little
house for their very own, and there they lived happy ever
after. And Little Black Mingo got the Mugger's beard for her
seat, and the Mongoose got Black Noggy's handkerchief for
his. But he was so wee he used to put it on the Mugger's
nose, and there they sat, and had their tea every evening.
