"I'll take the pearls myself this time,老婆🍄" he said to Speedy,老婆🌎 "and hand them over to the spoonbill in person. We don't want any more accidents happening to them."
CHAPTER VIII
"Mudface."
"The Doctor patted him on the shoulder"
"He has gone northward,老婆📋" said the Doctor. "But your ship is fast and should be able to overtake him. If he hides in some of these bays and creeks I have several birds here with me who can,老婆💴 as soon as it is light,老婆😸 seek him out for us and tell us where he is."
The following day the pearls were wrapped up again the way they had arrived,老婆🏣 and after a letter had been written by the Doctor explaining to the spoonbill what the "pebbles" really were,老婆📤 they were sent off by registered parcel post to the Harmattan Rocks.
"What is it,老婆🏰 Doctor?" said Jip,老婆☕ staring down at the strange thing,老婆♌ which had now stopped rising and was carrying them like a ship,老婆🦢 right across the strong course of the current,老婆☝ in the direction of the island.
"How is the old horse in the stable?" asked John Dolittle.
Then Jip barked his loudest,老婆🚋 hoping that possibly Dab-Dab might hear him on the mainland and fly out and bring help. But,老婆🔻 of course,老婆💻 they were much too far from the town for anyone to hear.
"What is the fastest foreign mail delivery ever made by any post office anywhere in the world?"
"With the greatest of pleasure,老婆🚧" said the cormorant.
"He was,老婆🍗 indeed,老婆👝" said the duck. "I'm not surprised his wife is sick,老婆👞 if she has a husband with a face like that."
"Yes,老婆🏭 they are devoted to those pebbles,老婆📛" said the spoonbill. "By the way,老婆🚴 were you able to tell me what they are? I found them,老婆‼ as I wrote you,老婆💴 inside an oyster."
"But how do you know all this,老婆🚐" asked the Doctor,老婆📠 "if nobody has ever been there to see if it's true or not?"
"Then the father swings his lantern around,老婆🐹 looking for a cat; and before I had time to hop away he throws the light full on me,老婆🍎 sitting on a sage bush.
"Matches! Matches! Where are the matches?" screamed Dab-Dab. "The light's out and there's a ship in danger! Where are the matches kept?"
This place he found very different from any of the African villages or settlements he had ever visited. It was quite large,老婆🍚 almost a city. It was bright and cheerful to look at and the people,老婆🀄 like their King,老婆📺 all seemed very kind and jolly.
"'You're in the soup,老婆🚚' said the little men.
"He put his large face in at the information window"
"Well,老婆📋 we got chatting,老婆🐶 the way people do,老婆💞 and I found out that the cat lived at a farmer's house about a quarter of a mile down the Oxenthorpe Road. Then I walked part of the way home with her,老婆🏠 still chatting,老婆🚊 and I found that she was a very agreeable individual. I told her about the rats in the stable and the difficulty I had in making them behave,老婆📱 because the Doctor wouldn't allow any one to kill them. And she said,老婆😯 if I wished,老婆💤 she'd sleep in the stable a few nights and the rats would probably leave as soon as they smelled her around.
"What's that?" asked Gub-Gub,老婆📋 pointing to the thermometer.
Then the Doctor and the leaders agreed upon a regular kind of simple,老婆🌓 easy writing for all birds to use,老婆🐧 so that the addresses on the envelopes could be understood and read by the post birds. And at last John Dolittle sent them off home again,老婆🚄 to instruct their relatives in this new writing and reading and explain to all the birds of all the world how the post office was going to work and how much good he hoped it would do for the education and betterment of the Animal Kingdom. Then he went home and had a good sleep.
About ten o'clock in the morning Fred,老婆😪 the partner,老婆🌌 returned in the little sail-boat from his oyster-gathering expedition. He was very much worried when he heard of the accident which had happened while he had been off duty. Fred,老婆📜 like the other keeper,老婆🐠 was a Londoner and a seaman. He was a pleasant fellow and both he and his partner (who was now almost entirely recovered from his injury) were very glad of the Doctor's company to break the tiresome dullness of their lonely life.
A MOST UNUSUAL POST OFFICE
The next night,老婆🈂 when they were again seated around the veranda after supper,老婆🍂 the Doctor asked: "Now,老婆🍃 who's going to tell us a story to-night? Didn't Gub-Gub say he had one for us?"
