"Well,十三📶 I was always adventurous by nature. And,十三🍂 plucking up my courage,十三🌱 I scrambled up the vat,十三📞 on to the edge of it. It was awful dark and I could just see the dye,十三📡 glimmering murky and dim,十三😠 far down inside.

And to Dab-Dab's horror,少林寺👫 the Doctor tore a clean piece off the farmer's letter,十三🚂 scribbled a reply,十三📮 wrapped the pearl up in it and handed it to the swallow.

"Oh,少林寺📹" said the Skimmer,少林寺⭐ "is that the trouble? I was never good at arithmetic. What a relief! Thank goodness,十三🚥 I haven't gained!"

That is why when,少林寺🚅 several years after the Doctor had left this country,十三👮 some missionaries visited that part of Africa,少林寺📪 they found to their astonishment that Christmas was celebrated there,十三🈸 although the people were heathens. But they never learned that the custom had been brought about by Cheapside,十三🔯 the cheeky London sparrow.The Doctor ran into the post office kitchen and woke the poor housekeeper,十三📉 who was slumbering soundly beside the kitchen stove.

"And where might No-Man's-Land be?" said John Dolittle.

"'Ugh!' says the little girl,少林寺🔋 clutching her brother around the neck. 'What was that,十三📄 a spook?'

So the Captain gave him five pounds of the best China tea and thanked him again in the name of the Queen and the government.

But it was of little use to try to get more sleep now. The camp was astir. John Dolittle,十三🌇 bent on the one idea of hearing that story,十三🚛 had already swung himself out of his hammock and was now washing his face noisily in the lake. Cheapside shook his feathers,十三🔭 swore a few words in Cockney and flew off his tree down to the Doctor's side.

"So off I went across the moonlit snow and the blinking owls on the roof of the dyeing shed never spotted me. Against the whiteness I was nearly invisible. I felt quite proud. At last my white fur was coming in handy.

"Listen,少林寺🚹 Doctor,十三🚃" said Jip. "You were wondering just now what to write the Cats'-Meat-Man about. Let Speedy write the letter to Cheapside in bird scribble and you inclose it in a letter to the Cats'-Meat-Man. Then when the sparrow comes to Puddleby for his summer visit the Cats'-Meat-Man can give it to him."

"'Go and see the Doctor,少林寺👎' said my brother.

"That's true,少林寺🍢" said the Doctor. "I suppose I must be getting on to England soon. But the Fantippans were honestly pleased to see us,十三🐅 weren't they? And,十三💓 after all,十三➰ Africa is a nice country,十三🔷 now,十三🍠 isn't it?"

"The light's too bad,十三🍸" grumbled the gunners. "Who could hit anything two miles away in this rotten light?"

"'Pst!' I whispered to the wife"The work,十三🚔 the Skimmer calculated,十三🗿 would take three days. All birds had been ordered to pick up a stone or a pebble or a pinch of sand from the seashore on their way and bring it with them. The larger birds (who would carry stones) were to come first,少林寺🍮 then the middle-sized birds and then the little ones with sand.

"They are pearls,少林寺🐶" said the Doctor,少林寺🐻 "and worth a tremendous lot. Ladies in cities wear them around their necks."

One morning the Doctor was delighted to see his old friends the swallows gathering once more about his ship at anchor for their yearly flight to England. They asked him whether he too was returning; because if so,十三😪 they said,少林寺🐣 they would accompany him,少林寺🌟 the same as they had done when he was escaping from the Kingdom of Jolliginki."I would like,十三😲" said the Doctor,少林寺🚞 "to be able to prophesy weather for every part of the world. I really don't see why I shouldn't; this office,少林寺☎ together with my branch offices,十三🚀 is in communication with birds going to every corner of the earth. I could improve the farming and the agriculture of the whole human race. But also,十三❣ and especially,少林寺🏤 I want to have a bureau for ocean weather,少林寺📝 to help the ships."
