Abe barn and ever since Teddy
Remembered anything at all
" Charleyhorse had lived there.
Now. while Charleyhorse was quite the
incest horse in the world and just the
wisest. too. as Teddy boy could tell
you. Teddy had the surprise of his life
one day when Charleyhorse began to
talk.
You see. it was one of those warm
bright afternoons in which so very
often fairy folks come to visit the lit
tie people instead of waiting until
night time. when Mr.. Sandman comes
around with his magic bag.
Mr.. Sandman Is a very jolly felloW'
by the way. and a great friend to
tho fairies. Every night, as l sald
before. he comes around with his bag
Of sand to scatter over sleepy heaos'
Sometimes. when the moon IS every
bit az bright as daylight, the Pixies
who are a misChievous lot TO be sure
the Pixies follow Mr.. Sandman and
sYeep M some of his sand. using their
little cat-teaser brooms and leaf for
a dustpan. Then what fun they have!
They put the sleepy sand in bags. do
the Pixies. and they keep it until day
time
In the bright drowsy afternoons
they creep up behind little girls and
bows and-Swish!-goes bit OF the
magic sand from the Pixies bags and
not even the most interesting of games
could keep the children awake.
Well, it was an afternoon after
bright moonlight night that Teddy
heard Charleyhorse talk.
Teddy was sitting at the foot of
mound of hay in the loft. He had just
had a splendid slide down the mound
and he was just resting a moment be-
fore climbing up again for another
slide when a voice came from Charley
horses stall below.
My! N.Y." 1t said. What a won
derfuI day it is. Mrs. Robin. II must
feel very queer to live way up in a
tree as you do. I would be fright

A little chirruping, piping voice an

Teddy peeped over the edge of the
loft There stood Charleyhorse AMI

We'll, WELL" Charleyhorse said just
then. Il suppose 1t Is safe for a body
as little as you. 1t would have to be a
pretty big tree to hold me. But II
must be nice to live in an apple tree
as you do. right up near that delicious
juicy fruit"
Yes. 1t Is convenient. though one
can't entirely live on apples" Mrs.
Robin chirruped.
They're awfuly good as dessert
though" said Charleyhorse wistfully.
"Delicious!" Mrs. Robin agreed
then-"do let me see If can get you
one, Mr.. Charleyhorse."
"Oh. that would be so nice Of your
CharIeyhorse cried, but do hope 1t
won't be too much troubled"
Not a bit" Mrs. Robin assured
him. Don't you let me take all the
bits of oats and such that I want from
your manger? Come right into the
yard and I'll get you an apple"
Charleyhorse followed Mrs. Robin
into the yard quite willingly. Up flew
Mrs. Robin to the branches of the
apple tree.
Here is a good one" she said. peer
ing down through the leaves.
"Ah! 1t does look good" Charley
horse agreed.
So Mrs. Robin used her sharp
little bill. her sharp little claws and
even her wings to try to make the ap-
pie fall. She shook and pecked. she
Tapped and scratched, but the apple
held firmly to the branch.
Dear. dear" she said. painting a
little and leaning on a twig for sup
port. IT'S a-bit-harder than-I-
thought"
Dear. dear!" echoed CharIeyhorse

Tears of disappointment shone in his
eyes.
BY this time Teddy had climbed
down from the loft and stood in the
doorway of the barn. Now he ran
forward.
Let me help" he said, for he was
a kind-hearted little boy and glad TO
do a good turn for anyone.
Both Charleyhorse and Mrs. Robin
looked at him.
How can you?" cried they.

But you won't hurt my babies ?"
Mrs. Robin asked. doubtfully.
"Of course he won't" Charleyhorse
cried, Indignantly. Teddy loves the

ACTORS AND MANAGERS
UNYIELDING IN STRIKE
New York Street Audiences Given
Entertainment by Prominent
Actors on Guard.

NEW YORK, August s.-Nine play
houses in the Broadway theatrical
district have been closed and three
are presenting abbreviated programs,
while seven have been able to defy
the strike order Of the Actors Equity
Association and give their advertised
bills with complete casts. This, In
effect, was the status today of the
latest labor trouble in New York.
In addition to the theaters that are
closed 1t was estimated that the re-
hearsals of thirty plays were being
held up.
Both the actors and the managers
were firm in their intention to Aght
1t out on the lines established. The
manage announced that suit would
be brought against the actors asso-
citation as such and against the ac-
tors individually for breaking con-
tracts AS for the patrons, they are
accepting the situation as Just an
other form of entertainment. The
unusual feature of prominent actor
picketing "scab" theater and en-
Pertaining a crowded sidewalk audi
ence with stunts gives an added pnb-
lie interest in the strike. -.
