But, just as he was going to give up trying, all at once he thought he saw two little black things hardly so big as the head of a small black pin. Could those be eyes? Tommy Smith hardly believed that they could be, for some time; they were so _very_ small. “Are those your eyes, Mrs. Mole?” he asked at last.
