And there were two little boy pigs, and for a time they didn't have any names, as their papa and mamma were so busy that they couldn't think what to call them. So they just said "Here sonny!" or "Hi, Bubby," whenever they wanted them to come in, or eat their dinner. AND THERE WERE TWO LITTLE BOY PIGS AND FOR A TIME THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY NAMES AS THEIR PAPA AND MAMMA WERE SO BUSY THAT THEY COULDN'T THINK WHAT TO CALL THEM SO THEY JUST SAID HERE SONNY OR HI BUBBY WHENEVER THEY WANTED THEM TO COME IN OR TO EAT THEIR DINNER
on a time, not so very many years ago, in the days when there were fairies and giants and all things like that, there lived in a little house, on the edge of a wood, a family of pigs. Now these pigs weren't like the pigs, which perhaps you children have seen on most farms. No, indeed! They were just the nicest cleanest, sweetest pigs you ever dreamed of--not that pigs on a farm can't be clean, if they want to, but, somehow or other, no one seems to have time to see that they are clean. I guess it would take some one like Jennie Chipmunk to sweep and dust their pen for them. Anyhow the pigs I am going to tell you about were very different from most pigs, and they had some very funny adventures. First, there was the papa pig, and his name was Mr. Archibald Twistytail though no one ever called him anything but Mr. Twistytail except maybe his wife, when he forgot to bring up a scuttle of coal so she could do the washing. And then, of course there was Mrs. Twistytail--she was the mamma pig.  TALE IS NAMED ONCE UPON A TIME NOT SO VERY MANY YEARS AGO IN THE DAYS WHEN THERE WERE FAIRIES AND GIANTS AND ALL THINGS LIKE THAT THERE LIVED IN A LITTLE HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF A WOOD A FAMILY OF PIGS NOW THESE PIGS WEREN'T LIKE THE PIGS WHICH PERHAPS YOU CHILDREN HAVE SEEN ON MOST FARMS NO INDEED THEY WERE JUST THE NICEST CLEANEST SWEETEST PIGS YOU EVER DREAMED OF NOT THAT PIGS ON A FM CAN'T BE CLEAN IF THEY WANT TO BUT SOMEHOW OR OTHER NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE TIME TO SEE THAT THEY ARE CLEAN I GUESS IT WOULD TAKE SOME ONE LIKE JENNIE CHIPMUNK TO SWEEP AND DUST THEIR PEN FOR THEM ANYHOW THE PIGS I AM GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT WERE VERY DIFFERENT FROM MOST PIGS AND THEY HAD SOME VERY FUNNY ADVENTURES FIRST THERE WAS THE PAPA PIG AND HIS NAME WAS MISTER ARCHIBALD TWISTYTAIL THOUGH NO ONE EVER CALLED HIM ANYTHING BUT MISTER TWISTYTAIL EXCEPT MAYBEA'S WIFE WHEN HE FORGOT TO BRING UP A SCUTTLE OF COAL SO SHE COULD DO THE WASHING AND THEN OF COURSE THERE WAS MISSUS TWISTYTAIL SHE WAS THE MAMMA PIG
