Smiley had a mare who was often sick. However, during the horse races she was given the excitement of the owner, and she often bypassed the favorites, earning prizes. Similarly behaved Smiley Bulldog: this frail-looking dog in front of his eyes changed, if he saw that at the end of the money.
Once Smiley decided to fill up his home zoo with a frog named Daniel Webster. For three months he was engaged in her education: he taught to turn in the air, catch flies, jump in length. The frog was his pride; bringing her to the city, the owner directly on the streets made a bet, then demonstrated the amazing skills of his amphibian and always won.
The problem occurred when a newcomer appeared in the village. Seeing the frog in the cage, he started a conversation with Smiley, who could not miss the chance and put forty dollars to the fact that his python would be able to ride any frog in Calaveras. The stranger arranged the terms of the dispute; However, the matter was complicated by the lack of competition. Then Smiley, entrusting the cage to the guest, ran to the swamp to catch the second - unreassed - frog. During his absence, the stranger opened his mouth to Daniel Webster and stuffed it with quail beads.
When the match began, it became clear that Smiley's ward could not move. Her swamp rival easily won the race, the stranger took forty dollars, and the bewildered bettor lifted his apprentice and found that she weighs at least five pounds. Realizing that he was taken around his finger, the hero rushed to catch up with the unknown, but he had already disappeared.
