But it happened that way, and so the two were given a common funeral and buried in the same coffin. A few months later Prof. I.M. Wise notices in the paper that there was a new bone exposition at the museum, and being much in love with the widow, the mother of the two children, he decided to take her to the exhibit. Seeing the bones at the exhibit suggests to the children that their pets must be bones by this time, so they tell the professor that they know where some old bones are. The professor is delighted with the bones, as he thinks that he has discovered the remains of an animal that was the cross between a hen and a dog. From the bones he draws a picture of the way the creature must have looked and calls it the "Henanpup." He publishes his discovery in the paper and thinks that he will be famous. At last he finds that the bones are nothing more than the remains of an ordinary dog and chicken and is chagrined. The children sell the bones for two cents and with the proceeds invest in a stock of candy. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
