rain finally appeared, the crops have
benefited materially from it.
Fall Grain is Fine.
"Fall grain is in fine shape and

the rain, will yield 5O-per cent crop.
Field peas were pretty far gone, but
the rain even helped them, and in

Santa Laughs.
As he pondered there, all curled
up, his chin buried in his hand and
one foot tucked under him, he didn't
look much like the jolly old Saint
Nick that every girl and boy loves.
But suddenly he seemed to change.
His face began to wrinkle up, his
eyes to twinkle--he commenced
shaking all over and then throwing
back his head, laughed long and
heartily. Such a funny laugh as it
was, too. From long experience
Santa had learned to laugh without
making sound for fear of waking
up someone while on his rounds
filling stockings, and now he just
sat there and shook and .wheezed
and held his sides, until the tears
rained down his rosy old cheeks.
At last he sobered down, and
from the businesslike manner in
which he started in to work he
must have found some way out of
his trouble. He took off his coat.

This was the room in which he

In one corner OF the room was a

tools; Santa had been working on
it before, that morning. Santa

CHAPTER, II.
Taffytoe Runs AWAY.

Santa had told Taffytoe he could
visit his old mother and father as
soon as he had made enough sugar
plums to last till he came back.
The morning the trouble began he
was making an extra large batch.
He had a big kettle sizzling over the
fire and was stirring away with a
spoon as large as himself. Dinah
as usual commenced scolding: GO
long now, you li'p frog-legged bag
O. nuisance an leave me to nah
own kitchen. All don see why
Massa Santa dom make you clar
outen yere. Glare to goodness, you
sho' am a heap sight mo- hinder
ance dan help
Taffytoe was feeling unusually
good, as his Christmas work was so
nearly finished and his vacation so
close at hand. He pretended not to
hear her and threw back his head
and sang song of his own making:
ooh, hie-ho for the sweet sugar
plum!
They all laugh with glee when they
see ME come.
| make them so, with twist OF my
thumb, m. .a-
To fill with delight your tummy-
tum- tum"
As you may guess Dinah was
really very jealous of Taffytoe be-
cause he could make such good
sugar plums. She had tried her
hand at making them number of
times. but they were too soft or she
burned them. So now Taffytoe's
song and his mischievous actions
made her very angry and she could
keep her temper no longer. Just
as he was taking the kettle off the
fire. bubbling and sputteringt she
started for him with the broom.
With the kettle in his hands, Taffy-
toe could do nothing to defend him
self; he stood helplessly looking
around for some means OF protec-
ton.
In Despair. '
Dinah had almost reached him
when his eyes fell upon his three
legged stirring stool. In despair he
gave it a kick. In another instant
Dinah was upset; but as she fell,
her foot struck the kettle, knocked
IL from Taffytoe's hands and sent
it flying into the air. Up flew the
kettle. down went Dinah, and away
ran Taffytoe. As he reached the
door he gave one frightened glance
behind him. What he. saw made
him sure that he had Killed Dinah
The kettle, in falling, had turned
over and had landed souarely over
Dinah's kinky head. Already the
thick. boiling syrup was running
down all over her. The last seen

making a very heated speech. He
tiptoed up behind the boxes and lis
tened. AS he had supposed, it was
Grumpy, and he was evidently just
finishing, for as Santa got within
hearing distance he heard: "And in
closing, let me say this, friends and
fellow workmen: Must we stand
idly by and let this heartless despot
walk all over us, and take from US
the one thing that makes our lives
here worth while? Just so he can
keep up this bluff of his and make
little children think that he alone
is interested in their happiness!
Who makes their toys and candy
anyhow Must we put up with this
injustice, ! say, or demand our law
ful rights? | move we take this
thing into our own hands and de-
mand an answer at once"
Union Business.
He seemed to have many listen
ers, for there was loud clapping of
hands and many such remarks as,
Were with you Grumpy whats
this union business for anyway if
it won't protect our rights?"
Santa's anger was aroused and he
waited to hear no more but stepped
out where all could see him. Every
thing quoted down at once and
many turned to go but Santa held
up his hand and told them to wait.
you demand an immediate an
swer," he Numbered. "You shall
have it now. | should tell you to
all clear out and give your union a
fair test but I'm going to be more
considerate Of you than that. In
week you would all be back begging
me to take you in again. I'm try
ing to be fair with you and / have
no intention OF asking you 10 do
without your sugar plums," and he
scowled at Grumpy, who looked
very shamefaced "You will find
your sugar plums waiting for you
at supper tonight and from then on
as long as YOU behave yourselves.
Now. then, the next. time you start
grumbling be sure you have good
reason" He walked away, as II
he were very much ashamed of their
actions.
The Gnomes waited until he was
out OF sight and then without look
ing at one another went sinking
back to their work.

of him Taffytoe was dashing to-
ward his room, wild light in his
eyes and his face chalky white.
On hearing the disturbance Santa
rushed to the kitchen, There sat
Dinah In the middle of the floor,
the kettle still on her head, the
sticky brown candy streaming down
all around her. Santa was too
frightened to laugh, but she really
was a comical sight. Santa pulled
and grunted. The kettle stuck.
Then, with a suddenness that al
most upset Santa, it came off, and
a very meek Dinall came to light.
Santa sent Dinaf to her room to
scrape off the now-hardened candy
as best she could. Then he looked
around for Taffytoe. But he was
gone. All the Gnomes joined in,
the search, but not sign of the
sugar plum maker could be found.
Santa Thinks.
Now you can see why Santa sat
in his office in such deep thought.
With Taffytoe gone the sugar
plums would soon be gone too. And
Santa we'll knew that without sugar
plums the Gnonres would soon re-
fuse to work. The outlook seemed
so hopeless that even merry Santa
Claus was near to feeling blue this
morning. Poor Mrs. Santa had
begged more piteously than usual
for an extra sugar plum. The
Gnomes had been greedier than
ever for plums at breakfast. Every
where he turned he seemed to hear
nothing but sugar plums, sugar
plums.
Already, Grumpy, his best car
penter, and president of their union,
the Allied Trades and Helpers of
S. Claus, had called at the office to
see what effect Taffytoe's leaving
would have on their getting their
regular supply of sugar plums. He
had insisted that the entire stock.
meant for good little children ali
over the earth, should be turned
over to the Gnomes, to be used in
case Taffytoe didn't come back 81
until someone else could be found
to take his place. Otherwise they
would strike. Santa didn't want
to make trouble, so he asked
Grumpy to give him day in which
to think il Over. Grumpy finally
agreed to this, but as he left the
office. to show his importance he
pulled out his chest and said: "Un-
derstahd, sir. no foolishness. | am
here to see that the Allied Trades
are given their rights, and I intend
to do my duty"

der of wonders, Sally managed it,
and Light-as-a-Feather gave her
two shining gold earrings, which
she wears to this day.
. Sweet Content couldn't get her
hand onto her wand, or she could
have escaped easily. Light-as-a-
Feather tried to get it, but only sue
ceeded in cutting her finger.
The two fairies were just about to
give up, when along came Milly
Mouse, who lives in a grass hut in
the middle OF the smooth rolling
meadow. 1t wasn't a jifty before she
had our fairy out of the fearful
trap. Sweet Content and Light-as-a-
Feather Rugged her with thanks.
while Milly insisted that she hadn't
done anything at all. When the
fairies wanted to know what they
could do to help her, she said that
the only thing that they could do
was to let her know when kittens
were about. Sweet Content and
Light-as-a-Feather fixed an alarm
gong on Milly's house, which rings
whenever a cat comes into a mea-
dow. All the cats wonder why it
is that they never can catch Milly
sleeping, but the fairies only laugh
and never tell.
Sweet Content and Light-as-a-
Feather. as soon as they fixed Mil
ly's alarm, flew to Cloudland and
spent the rest of the day sailing
through the heavens with Downy-
white in her sapphire castle. But
when night came they were SO tired
that Downywhite ordered Shooting
Star to take them home. They
folded up their wings and put them
away, deciding that, while it is fun
to fly, it is much nicer to dance on
their two feet and run no danger of
being tangled in wicked traps set by
Sciderspun.
