sunless the Wood witch has her castle
there. and makes the hills glitter to en-

little friend. squeedee hoped up beside
him.

and flnd out about those golden hills
Dicky needed no coaxing. SO away
they flew until they came to the golden
hill-solden from the rays of the setting
sun. But in the very centre was a great
big cave. and two tiny elfins stood guard
with great. big picks.
They greeted Dicky and Squeedee with
nod Of their funny little heads and
bade them enter.
Tiny firefies. seated on every rock.
flooded tho cave with brilliant light.
And there Dicky discovered an old
woman sitting on . stone weeping Bit
terly.
why do you cry?" asked Dicky kind
y, laying his hand on her shoulder.
She raised her head. Long matted
hair fell around her ugly face--the ugli-

bravely.

Clouds Of misty smoke filled tho cave,

woman had been sitting beautiful
fairy princess smiled up at Dicky.
You see what you've done for me?"

How Diphtheria is Contracted

One often hears the expression, MY
child caught a severe cold which de-
veloped into diptheria when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly suscep-
tible to the wandering dphtheria
germ. If your child has a cold when
diptheria is prevalent you should
take him out of school and keep him
off the street until fully recovered,
as there is a hundred times more
danger of his taking diphtheria when
he has a cold. When Chamberla int
Cough Remedy is given it quickly
cures the cold and lessons the danger
of diphtheria or any other germ di-
sease being contracted.-Adv.
