"I'll pay you back for squeezing my neck," screamed Cheeky. Each monkey had hi) arms full of largo, hard nutH. With these they meant to knock Smiling Tqncher from tho branch to which tdio clung. But as Ohatter-Cheo and Cheeky drew bac'k their arms to fling the nuts a sharp hies froze them with terror. And the other xvild monkeys heard It, too even in thc midst of their frenzied chattering nnd screaming. They srexv stiff as statues and their clamor -wan cut short as If with a knife.

It took but a second for 1'eggy, Billy and Itollo to get out of the snake skin and only another moment for Hollo to tap Smiling Teacher nnd the children with the Dream Stick turning them into moukeys again, "l'ou xvill be safer as monkeys in this iungle," he said.
