KEEPING THE STOVE BRIGHT.

instead of backing the entire
stove every few days, try backing
only the top Immediately over or
close to the fire. The sides, front,
oven door, base and other cool parts
may be painted with liquid prepara-
ton, applied with clean, fat brush,
and left to dry. In short time this
dries out, leaving a bright, jet black
finish that remains in excellent con-
dition for many months. The prep
aration cannot be used on the top or
the hot parts of the stove, as 1t cas-
lily burns off. The hot portions are
simply treated in the ordinary way.

uncle jack" asked Celia, anxiousB.
Now, I'm coming to thai. AS
SAID, this country is filled With all the
wonderful beings that you see in your
dreams and Dodo, the Komikal King
directs all of them. For Instance
when You, Harold-boy. dreamed the
Otner night that YOU rode winged
morse like Pegasus away above the
trees and into. the sky, and when vou
got up there you thought you were
going to fall. it was Dodo who sent
Pegasus to You. He wanted YOU TO
take a ride and SO he sent you the
nnest animal he had. He wasn't
going to let you fall, because King
Dodo never does anything so mean
as that.
1T keeps. King. Dodo mighty busy
looking after all his people and funny
horses, and giants, and hcb-goblins.
and fairies. and elfs, aud hundreds of
things that l can't mention to YOU.
but which you will see as he sends
them to you in turn. AS soon as you
fall asleep he knows about it,"
How does 1t know" asked Harold.
boy.
We'll. now. Well, you wait auc
hear the story and then you'll. know
all about 1t, answered Uncle; Jack
guardedly.
"And Wbon ho'z 'o,,ro ,.n,,-.4 o.J..
he sends either some giant, or 2
genii, or something to your bedside.
Sometimes they scare you, but you
mustn't ever be afraid because they
have all been commanded by DodO
not TO hurt little boys and girls. In
deed, / could tell you stories of ter
rible and awful things he used to
send to see me, pink snakes, and red
elephants, and things like that, but,
of course, he won't send them those
kind to little folks.
And, as each one Of these won
derful people from Sleepyland finishes
his visit to you and takes his depart
ure, he hurries right back to Sleepy
land and reports. King Dodo listens
to him and then has his report taken
down in shorthand and filed away.
So you see he never has time to
get away from Sleepyland at night
and in the daytime he's so sleepy"
'Des like you, Uncle Jack" asked
Celia.
Just like me. That he doesn't like
to go out into the world to see what's
going on. So, as j first started to
tell YOU, he made UP his, mind thai
once a year he would go out into the
world and mingle with the people,
and take with him all of his sub
jects, who had been particularly good
during the year, because his subjects
are sometimes bad, just the same as
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1908-03-01

You or l. And, he then set about look
ing for a place to so. Dodo WASH
like King Priscus,, however. He didn't
nave TO send, messengers out into
every country, because every night
at least one of his subjects visits at
every city, and. town, and hamlet, and
state, and country, in the whole
| world and of course. when they go
back, as l told you, they reported.
well, / don't know just now who
/ 1t was that returned from a particu-
larly happy journey to Pensacola one
! night, but when this report came in.
| telling what lot of pretty little boys
and girls, and happy youths and maid
| ems, and good men and women, thel e
| We're in Pensacola, he exclaimed right
off, before he even dictated the re-
| port to the stenographer, I'm going
| to Pensacola!
'Of course, after he had decided to
come to this city. the only thing left
was to fix the date, so he looked
through the calendar, read every day
on it including Sundays. He saw
Christmas, Fourth of July, Washing
tons Birthday, New Years, Thanks
giving, and finally away down in the
corner of his calendar after he had
started through it the second time
he began at January The saw Fat
tuesday. Now, DodO is fat man
himself, something like King Cole, so
when he saw the holiday called Fat
Tuesday, or Mardi Gras, he made rrp
his mind that that was the proper
time for him to come visit our city.
Then began preparations You've
read about them in the paper, about
him bringing along a wonderful ar
ray of his people. and so forth, all
! dressed in funny costumes and wear
ing Mosques, and made up like every
thing from a Chinaman to a monkey.
And after he got them all ready they
started on the journey l don't know
what day it was they started, but it
was recently, and Dodo and his peo-
pie will arrive here tomorrow so you
must get ready to see him.
But how does King Dodo and
sides, tomorrow's Monday asked
HaroId-boy.
We'll, you see just about the time
Dodo decided to make US a visit. he
heard that King Prisons had also
CHOSEN Pensacola for visit, and
strange enough had chosen the same
day that he did, so he sent messen-
ger to King Priseus and asked him
how il would be for both of them to
be in the city at the same time King
Priscus sent one of his swiftest mes
sengers in reply, with a dispatch say
ing that he would be glad TO have
King Dodo reach Pensacola the same
day he did. and help him make his
stay in the city pleasant So Dodo,
being an accommodating old chap,
complied with Priscus's suggestion"
Oats a fine tory, Uncle Jack"
commented Celia, gratefully.
But it isn't really and truly like
that, Uncle Jack, cause father and |
mother both say" began the ever
so-big-bay.
We'll, now I'm not asking that you
believe your Uncle Jack, Harold-boy. |
/ m only telling you the story of King |
DOdo as it was told to me-
We'll, who told YOU asked Harold |
boy perSistently.

answered Uncle Jack conclusively. as
mamma called them all to come to
tea
