AS Tim grew older he made quite a

although they were all bigger than he

Shopping

MABEL and went shopping one
mi day;
In our foolish. light-hearted,
Iight-pOcketed way,
We patronized all the best places in
town;
Each began by selecting ten-guinea
gown.
Mabel and went shopping-we chose
A drawing-room suite in plush, couleur
de rose;
A necklace of pearls and g. diamoad
star,
A sabIe-iined coat and a new motor
car.
Mabel and I chose gloves by the score,
Lace blouses, silk stockings and petit
coats-more
Than we'd ever wear out in a lifetime,
you'd think,
With hats of all colors. green, red, blue
and pink.
Mabel and I, when our shopping was
done.
Had a glass of milk each and a penny
bath bun;
For, though 1t would seem we'd spent
hundreds, I grieve
To admit that our shopping was all
make-believe.

was about he climbed down at once

later on they came to the house Of So
So, the gnome. $3.50 was sleeping

he heard the hubbub he awakened.

and raced along with as good a will as
any.
How they ran! The Goose-Girl led
the way, for she seemed to have wings
in her feet; and the Otter-Rabbits were
second, and all the others followed;
and each one hoped to cajole the Mus
tard-and-Cress Seller and get the black
bean.
Then at last they came to the bench
which is by the Halfway StiIe; and
there the Mustard -Cress Seller was
sitting. with his feet crossed, staring up
at the sky. And at his feet his dear
cat Too-Stout was tapping at a saucer
full of milk.

fresh as the stream and as cool as the
stones; and the price is but one penny"
But the Berry Man shook his head.
mo, no. said he. II will not buy any
thing which reminds me of streams, or
stones, or rain, or aching bones. 1t is
quite bad enough to have to bear those
things when they come! And he shed
a tear.
The Mustard -Cress Seller pressed
him no more; but he stood on his toes
and held out his hand with the black
bean in it. See, neighbor." cried he.
''As came over the Brown Hill by the
Green PalIng this bean was given to
me by a stranger. who told me not to
break it. not to lose it. and if [ grew
tired Of it to give it away. Now, I am
as afraid as can be of losing it as I

Then the Berry-Man was as angry

I'm only very little chap, and I
don't weigh much. You can't think
how jolly it is up there; it's splendidly
cool among the leaves. But the mon
keys are so afraid of me that they
dash off as son as ever they catch
sight Of me-"
The appearance of Tins mother
brought the conversation to a close,
and they We're all soon on their way to
their different homes.
But as Tim was hurrying off he over
heard the handsome young tiger say:

laughing down at them from the top

been wished, and there remains but
one. The person who has that bean
may wish for any one thing in the
whole world, and he will get 1t. But
when that one wish has been wished,
there will be no more value in the
bean" And with that away she flew.

Eve. IF only 1 could find the Mus
tard-and- Cress Seller! I might wish
for fine new shed" And away she
ran after the Goose-Glrl as hard as
she could, and after her the Otter-Rab-
bits, every one.
The Goose-Girl passed the house OF
the Cinder-Witch, and she cried: Pray
tell me, Cinder- Witch. have you seen

to give it away. Now, all the time I
am very much afraid of losing it, so I
have decided. Cinder- Witch, to give it
to you"
Then the Cinder- Witch took the black
bean in her hand, and looked at it care
fully. And when she had finished look
ing at it she gave it back to the Mus
tard-and-C Seller, and said, 81 have
never seen anything like it; but you
may be quite sure it is some evil charm
Otherwise it would not have been given
to you for nothing"
And she would not have the black
bean-not she.
The INSTANTANEOUS Seller be-
came more and more sorrowful; for he
was dreadfully afraid of losing the
black bean, and that something terri
BILE might happen in consequence. But
since the Cinder-Witch would not have
it, he went on his way.
And presently he came to the little
house under That-Tree, in which the
Berry-Man lived. The Berry-Man was
always very much afraid of getting
wet; so there he was, sitting on his
roof, mending a small hole in it.
"Good-day, neighbor," said the Mus

And with that away she went, and
with her the Otter-Rabbits, every one.

The Sand Man
Bv ARTHUR MACY

THE sand man Is coming, dears
coming from the skies;
He has a little box of sand to throw
in little eyes.
From east and west he brings you rest.
and just before the night
He scatters sand about the land and
shuts your eyelids tight.
When little folks are tired of noise and
put their heads in laps,
He gayly dances over hills with pock-
cts full Of maps;
And up he climbs at sleepy times to
sleepy little heads.
And makes them yawn before he's gone
49, for little trundle-beds
Listen to the sand man knocking at
the door;
Listen to the sand man. he's been here
before.
The sand man is coming, dears, COM
ing from the skies;
Sleepy tunes he's humming, dears, to
help you shut your eyes.
