     summary: Squinty, wondering what happened to little pigs when they were lost, and if they ever got home again, stretched out on the dirt between two rows of corn. I guess that little pig must be hungry, said the farmer looking down in the pen, after he had put some more stones and a board over the hole where Squinty had gotten out.

     summary: He was a duck merchant and had hundreds of ducks--white ducks, black ducks, brown ducks, big ducks, little baby ducks, and middle-sized ducks--ducks that said quack, drakes that said quork, and ducklings that said queek. [Illustration] Little Yellow Wang-lo had to get up very early every morning to call the ducks close round the houseboat, and then he used to feed them; when they had eaten their breakfasts they all swam away down the river to look for little fishes, frogs and other things, and only came back at night when it was time to have supper and to go to bed.

     summary: They feed principally on seeds, fruit, and herbage, but also, to a considerable extent, on insects, worms, and other small animals. It seems to be of a scaly texture; although is not so evident as in many other animals, on account of a peculiar substance--the yolk--which is placed on it, to protect and nourish the roots of the wool.

     summary: He cursed his son, and he cursed himself that ever he should beget a son that should eat burnt pig. The age of discipline is gone by, or it would be curious to inquire (in a philosophical light merely) what effect this process might have towards intenerating and dulcifying a substance, naturally so mild and dulcet as the flesh of young pigs.
