smokes six cigars day and sits up
until midnight playing cards. Is the
following concerning Charles Dickens:
Firth. many years ago, was commits
stoned to paint portrait Of the nov
elist. There was hitch about the
first sitting" says the nonagenarian.
Dickens had started growing a mus
tache which was considered almost
a crime in those days. The delay in
the sittings continued. and one morn
ing when we expected to fnd Dick
ems had relented and had shaved OF
his mustache. to our dismay he had
started growing more hair on his chin.
'Landseer called that mrning. and
he gave great start when he saw
Dickens face. Dickens then took the
bull by the horns. I say. old follow.

the Scarecrow.
You must keep your promises to

The Lion thought 1t might be as
well to frighten the Wizard. so he
gave a large, loud roar. which was so
fierce and dreadful that Toto jumped
away from him in alarm and tipped
over the screen that stood in a corner.
AS It fell with a crash they looked
that way, and the next moment all OF
them were filled with wonder. For
they saw. standing in just the spot
the screen had hidden, a little, old
man. with bald head and Il wrinkled
face, who seemed to be as much sur.

CHAPTER xv-continued.

Then he led them into his little
room and locked the spectacles from
the great box on all their eyes, just
as he had done before. Afterward
they passed on through the gate into
the Emerald City, and when the peo-
pie heard from the Guardian OF the
Gate that they had melted the Wicked
Witch of the West they all gathered
around the travellers and followed
them in a great crowd to the palace
of OF.
The soldier with the green whiskers
was still on guard before the door.
but he let them in at once and they
were again met by the beautiful green
girl. who showed each of them to their
