the Little SHOWS. Mr.. Snow had a tail

mouth. He had a very contented expires

strong, and the weather doesn't affect
me in the least. Now, look at your
fesh-and-blo people-see them shtver
and shake when a breath of north wind
touches them. But I, why, I just stand

And beside Mr.. Snowman stood Mrs
Snow woman. And she too, wore an ex-
preston of contentment on her round
face Very motherly she was, her eyes
always on her little daughter, who stood
close beside her. Mrs. Snow wore a hood
modelled after the hoods worn in early
Colonial days. Marie had fashioned Mrs
Snow like Jack was fashioning Mr.. Snow
close beside her. And together Jack and
Marie had fashioned the two Little
Shows.
Harry Snow was somewhat larger than
his sister, and older. too. having been

boy had purchased this valentine. And
on the envelope he wrote, Miss Jessie
Handy" And like the other boy, he
smiled happily as he dropped the mes
sage of love into Uncle Sans letter box
at the corner.
Hardly had Jack and June disappeared
from their place in the window when the
shOpkeepers hand was thrust In a second
time. And he drew forth dear little Mail
Mary. Never again would she tell her
sweet stories to her old friends of the
window. But they waved Il happy fare
well. for they knew that no valentine
could have an unhappy fate-that is. no
nice valentine.
And then went the Princess, leaving
only Cupid and the Clown. Well. they
remained all that day and during the
night-their last night together. They
held the usual party as soon as the shop
was closed and the lights were out. The
Clown danced and sang and stood on his
head. Cupid laughed till his eyes went
shut, and his wings tapped together.
Never had he seen the Clown so funny.
and he had always been perfectly ridicu-
lous. But on this last night he felt that
he must outdo any Of his previous at
tempts Mt entertaining. So he cut up
capers till he simply could not cut up
any more.
And then Cupid told fresh stories-the
best he had ever told-about the fairies
and cupids who lived in the clouds to-
gether And before the Clown realized IL
and before Cupid felt a wink of sleep In
his eye / o'clock had struck out very
loudly.
We'll. friend. one Of us will be left
alone tomorrow" siged the Clown, happy
and yet n bit sad. It's hard to part
from the last dear friend"
We may be fortunate enough to - to-
gether." said Cupid. stranger Thugs
have happened"
And that was one Of the strange things
that did happen. The same dear lady
bought the Clown and Cupid. She wanted
to send them to her little boy and little
girl. Cupid was for her little girl of five
and the Clown WAS for her little boy OF
seven. And you can imagine how happy
those dear "leftovers," Cupid and the
Clown. were when they were tied up to-
gether. And they Chatted all the way to
the postoft1Ce. where they were dropped
into a big blnlike place And for a few
hours they were separated, but they
knew they'd come together again. And
so they came together in a postmanS
sack on the following morning and were
carried to a nice home, where they fell
into the hands of just the dearest boy
and girl you ever saw. Oh. II was great
sport. it was. to be admired and laughed
at and loved and put nicely away for
keepsakes" And Cupid and the Clown
declared that ne who went last went

side. But just look at the three that
stand there! Aren't they fnc?"
A Pang Of regret passed through
Harry'S little snow heart. How he
wished he were once more beside his
jolly father on the hillside. He had been
a fool to allow the sunbeams to melt
him away from his home. And here he
lay, face downward, in the melting snow
beside the road, snow that was filled
with dirt. And one arm was gone. And
he couldn't even rise, not to speak Of
ever being able to drag himself to his old
happy place with his family.
But after several hours Of suffering
Harry was glad to hear the familiar
voices Of Marie and Jack oh. he's
melted and rolled down the hill" cried
Jack. Well have to fetch him up
again"
Yes, we can put new snow all about
his feet and make him secure again.
said Marie. Isn't It a pity he fell?
fear he's been greatly damaged. Let's
run TO him
And pretty soon Marie and Jack had
little, naughty. MANNED Harry in their
arms and were carrying him to his old
place in the yard. And they soon had
him set firmly in a new stand Of snow.
and Jack modelled a new arm for the
now ugly fellow. And Marie laughed
till the tears ran down her face at sight
Of Harry's nose and ear. He looks like
one Of those funny pictures one sees in
the comic paper" she declared
But Harry was glad to he back at
his home again. and didn't mind II
Marie did laugh at him. And his nose was
soon Strengthened and his ear fixed. and
