Two fast friends were Willie Brown and his little dog Bounce. Willie could never think of taking a walk without Bounce. Cake and play were equally shared between them. Willie taught his dog many tricks, and often said that Bounce could do almost anything in the world but talk.

There came a time, however, when Bounce really told Willie’s father something, though he could not talk.

It was a bright summer afternoon. Willie had walked with Bounce down to the river, which was not more than two blocks from his father’s store. Willie began to throw stones into the water, and Bounce lay on the grass, watching the flies and catching any that came too near. There were some logs（圓木） in the river near the bank. Willie jumped upon one of them, to see if he could throw a stone across the river. He drew back, and sent the stone with all his might. Just as it left his hand, the log turned, and he fell into the water. He was very much frightened（恐懼）, for he did not know how to swim, and there was no one to hear, though he called as loud as he could for help.

Poor little Bounce gave a great barking of worry. He ran up and down the bank two or three times, barking, looking first at Willie and then around. Then he started as fast as he could run, up the street to the store.

When he got there the door was shut, but he scratched(撓) against it and barked loudly, until someone came and opened it.

He caught hold of Mr. Brown’s clothes then ran to the door, then back again, catching at him, barking, and jumping. Now, Mr. Brown thought of Willie. He thought, “Something must be wrong.”  Immediately he followed Bounce to the riverside.

There he saw Willie’s hat circling on the water, and his small arm thrown up. He jumped in and caught him just as he was going down for the last time, and quickly carried him to the bank. Willie soon got over this fright, and no one seemed to be more delighted than Bounce.
