Ii Of the little boys in Tabby
n land loved to hang about the toy
L n shop, and when Mr. Rags, the
dog man who kept it, was in a good
humor he would let them play with the
different TOYS Although the shop
seemed small and dark, there was no
end to the wonderful things which came
out of it.
Far in the back were hidden every
kind of plaything imaginable. Mr..
Rags always took out those toys which
were big enough to help the creatures
in Tabbyland with their life and their
work, but the other toys just lay about
on the shelves.
Tommy began to stay about the toy
shop early one fall, and after few
weeks Mr. Rags felt that he really
belonged there. He let the kitty boy do
almost anything that he wanted.
So when Tom suggested that ne
take out a set of tracks and toy en-
gines and cars nearly as big as he, MI
Rags did not object. Tommy Iald out
the tracks in the front of the store, IN
a huge circle Then with the help
of Mr.. Rags. wound up the engine and
started it about 1t was full daylight
when he began. but he had such good
time and was so absorbed IN his play
that it became dark before he knew 1t.
Now to go back a little IN the story,
we must tell about the dOllieS and Mr..
Rags He was such a cross, shaggy,
ErumbIy old fellow that many Tabby-
land creatures, especially the dollies,
disliked him.
They never went near him if they
could help il, and they were always
telling tales about how he treated some
of the dollies who came to the toy
shop.
Miss Flax, the dolly person who lived
with Grandmother Tabby, was especial
" cruel to Mr.. Rags. She would not
speak to him on the streets, and she
always had a tale to tell of his cruelty.
She did not even know Mr. Rags, but
she did not stop her talk about him on
that account
AS matter of fact, Mr.. Rags was
secretly very fond of the pretty dOllies
and liked none better than Miss Flax
1t hurt his feelings to be treated in
such an unkind manner, but he was too

Advice To the Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

I wanted to marry her; she said she
loves me. too. But what would you
think of the following remarks she
made to me: Il don't want to be
servant to your children" and people
are cUrsing stepmOthers" The stu
alton concentrates on the following two
points. I love her dearly and would not
want to lose her; I love my children
so that it breaks my heart to think
might do an injustice TO them
J. S K
The girl you love has no conception
Of the beautiful relation possible be-
tween n mother and the children she
can keep from feeling like step chill
dren if she tries to win their love. Talk
it all over with her and try to persuade
her to love your babies and feel that
these children of the man she loves be-
long to her, too. The whole situation
is in the girls hands. Discuss it with
her and make certain of being fair to
her and your children, too.

she accused me of insincerity, upon
which 1 Immediately proposed that we
become engaged This was not hasty
decision, but the result of due delibera-.
ton. In answer she said we could not
get along on $40 per week, and laid
before her the fact that did not an

years. during which time 1 expected to
save more and earn more. DO you think
if she really cared for me she would &C
