THE BLUE GIANT.
n Hyfvs

fAHl
On top of mountain near jungle
lived huge Blue Giant, not blue like the
sky. but q dusky blue like indigo.
No one would have minded this huge
creature If he had not been so wicked.
But he was, and to the animals that
lived in the jungle, not the people who
livctlin the country around the mountain
Sometimes the Blue Giant would come
down from the mountain at night and
,ust for amusement he would pick upa
tree with small animals or birds sleeping
IN it and toss it about as If 1T were v hlp
until the door animals sleeping would
awake and think the world had come
to an end.
Sometimes he would suddenly jump
from the mountain right into the heart
of the Jungle and pick up Door tiger
by the tail, and swinging him above ms
head toss him far up on the mountain.
where the poor creature would hc trighten-
ed nearly out of his senses and then crawl
back to his Jungle very much ashamed
that anyone had seen him thus treated
when he was such a powerful creature
with the jungle folk.
But when one day the Blue Giant
came down the mountain and found
big lion asleep and pulled his whlskers
good and hard Just to make the poor
fellow jump. the jungle folks arose IN a
body and said something must be done to
stop the wicked Blue Giant from playing
his tricks

Miss Burke's leading man. and others
in the cast include Jed Prouty, Helen
