“Why, where’s Eureka?” cried Dorothy, suddenly.

“She’s gone out for a walk,” said Jim, gruffly.

“Where? On the roof?” asked the girl.

“No; she just dug her claws into the wood and climbed down the sides of this house to the ground.”

“She couldn’t climb down , Jim,” said Dorothy. “To climb means to go up.”

“Who said so?” demanded the horse.
