poked her head in the tent, he woke up and cried out."

"But no cow came into the tent last night, Mother," said Bunny. "Anyhow
a cow wouldn't like to eat a train of cars."

"A cow eat a train of cars!" cried Daddy Brown, coming into the tent
just in time to hear what Bunny said. "Say, is that a riddle?"

"No. But it's a riddle to guess who or what took Bunny's train of cars,"
said Mrs. Brown. "He says he left them here, in front of the stove to
dry out the water as you told him to, but they are gone now."

"That's queer," said Mr. Brown, looking about. "Is Bunny's train the
only thing that is missing?"

"It seems to be, as far as we can tell by a hasty look around. But we'll
have to see," said Mother Brown.

Uncle Tad, Mr. Brown and Bunny and Sue looked carefully about the tent
while Mrs. Brown got breakfast. They saw several footprints, for the
children, as well as the grown folks, had been about the tents all day,
and Eagle Feather, the Indian, had also been there.

"Who knew that you had a train of cars?" asked Mr. Brown of his son when
a long search had failed to find the toy.

"Well, I told the boy who brings the milk, the butter and egg man, and I
guess that's all," said Bunny.

"You told Eagle Feather," put in Sue.
