~ ,s possible that some of you read

49,, Mother Goose Wax Figures that his
ia was exhibiting in Oldham skating
-,,i, into living beings. You remember
thar they ell had a jolly dinner together,
sud then some one proposed a trip around
the world
Although Robin had to turn them back
T., wax again at the close of the din
nor so as not to discommode his uncle,
-.ui he did not give up the idea of going
broad with the jolly people who had en-
,oved themselves so much that night,
;;,nt he did not see his way clear to it.
W. was doing particularly well at school,
ord the vacation was a month off, so, for
Az time being he tried to forget that
he had power over wax figures.
Rut the very night of the day school
closed Robin was reused from his sleep
nv a cry of fire, and running to his bed
room window, he saw flames bursting
from the basement of the rink.
Wax figures are expensive. Wax melts

Robin to the rescue OF MS uncle prop

nil that Robin stopped to put on, and
these went over his night gown. Then
he rushed out of the house, crying "Fire!'
pt the top of his lungs, and made his
wav to the rink, which was on the next
block. The antiquated old pumping en-
pine was already there, and Oldham
foremost citizens were pumping for dear
life. but that was not going to save the
wax figures. Heat is just as bad as
flames as far as wax is concerned, and
# was so hot in the exhibition room that
Robin could see Old King Cole dripping
like a tallow candle.
without hesitation he ran into the build
ing and turned the figures to life as
quickly as he could.
Follow me. Get out to the street.
There's no danger, but hurry, and don t

Robin had never told soul about his
dinner with the wax works, so the as
constituent of the respectable citizens of
Oldham may be imagined when they saw

Who'll shelter these people for the

There was one woman there who did
not believe in shows of any kind. She
thought a circus wicked, and she would
no more have gone to theater than she
would have walked around town on her
