Bowser has a great , deep , wonderful voice which can be heard a very long distance when he bays on the tracks of some one he is hunting . It can be heard a very long distance indeed . But far as it can be heard , Bowser was far , far beyond hearing distance from Farmer Brown 's house before Old Man Coyote began to even think of playing one of his clever tricks in order to make Bowser lose his scent . You see , Old Man Coyote intended to lead Bowser into strange country and there lose him , hoping that he would not be able to find the way home . Old Man Coyote is himself a tireless runner . He is not so heavy as is Bowser , so does not tire as easily . Then , too , he had not wasted his breath as had Bowser with his steady baying . Old Man Coyote could tell by the sound of Bowser 's voice when the latter was beginning to grow tired , and he could tell by the fact that he often had a moment or two to sit down and rest before Bowser got dangerously near . So at last Old Man Coyote decided that the time had come to play a trick . By and by he came to a river . At that point there was a high , overhanging bank . On the very edge of this bank Old Man Coyote made a long leap to one side . Then he made another long leap to the big trunk of a fallen tree . He ran along this and from the end of it made still another long leap , as long a leap as he could . Then he hid in a little thicket to see what would happen . CHAPTER III WHAT HAPPENED TO BOWSER When a Coyote seems most honest , watch him closest . Bowser the Hound . Bowser was very , very tired . He would n't admit it even to himself , for when he is hunting he will keep on until he drops if his wonderful nose can still catch the scent of the one he is following . Bowser is wonderfully persistent .
So , though he was very , very tired , he kept his nose to the ground and tried to run even faster , for the scent of Old Man XXXXX was so strong that Bowser felt sure he would soon catch him .
