Bowser was sure that this time he would catch this fellow who had fooled him so often before . CHAPTER II OLD MAN COYOTE PLAYS A TRICK Of people who play tricks beware , Lest they may get you in a snare . You can not trust them , so watch out Whenever one may be about . Bowser the Hound . There is such a thing as being too much interested in the thing you are doing . That is the way accidents very often happen . A person will get so interested in something that he will be blind and deaf to everything else , and so will walk straight into danger or trouble of some kind . Now just take the case of Bowser the Hound . Bowser was so interested in the chase of Old Man Coyote that he paid no attention whatever to anything but the warm scent of Old Man Coyote which the latter was taking pains to leave . Bowser ran with his nose in Old Man Coyote 's tracks and never looked either to left or right . He would lift his head only to look straight ahead in the hope of seeing Old Man Coyote . Then down would go his nose again to follow that scent . So Bowser did n't notice that Old Man Coyote was leading him far , far away from home into country with which he was quite unacquainted . 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 XXXXX got dangerously near .
