"on They Went"

as though you were going anywhere,
as there are no horses hitched to the
wagon in which you are sitting"
"Bow-wow," said the sheep dog. "I'm
just guarding over the house. I'm sit
ting in this wagon. with my paws over
the seat, and I'm taking little dog
nap. That is, I'm keeping one eye
open in case my services are needed"
Then they went along further and
they saw a wagon filled with beautiful
tomatoes.
"We're going to MARKET" the toma-
bought some of us. She said that the
very last time she came along this
road she saw wagon of tomatoes
and that she was expecting to see us
today. Fancy being expected! She
expected to meet us In wagon on
this road as though we were some
people she thought might be taking
a walk this way"
On they went to old Mr.. Giants
Cave, and there Witty Witch told
them stories of the work Of the Frost
Brothers who had made the autumn
so much more wonderful and brilliant
because they had been out painting
so much.
The Frost brothers had made the
autumn a very, very red and scarlet
autumn, for when the autumn is misty
and not so clear and cold, the cOlors
are never so bright, but are paler and
softer.
Witty Witch told Of adventures the
Frost Brothers had had. And many
adventures she had to relate.
Then old Mr.. Giant got out the re-
freshments and every guest had dish
of fine wnter-green berries and de-
licious cups of Fairy Spring water.
Then each one was given little
bunch of Johnny-Jump-Up flowers, for
old Mr.. Giant said:
"These are the right flowers for Mr..
Gnome and his friends. Peter likes
every day and thinks every day is
nice. And these flowers like almost
every day for they're about the first
to come in the early spring, and the
last to go in the very late autumn"
And then Mr.. Giant drove all the
guests home in carriages decorated
with wild asters and Michaelmas
daisies which were deeper and darker
in color than the wild asters. The
carriages were handsome with the pur-
pie ard the blue flowers, and as they
drove off Peter Gnome made low
bow and said:
Every day is nice, but this day has
aeen one of the very nicest!"

The final fade-out reveals contrite and very demure little bride, who vows that one man will be enough to make her happy for the rest of her days. Miss Daniels has never had a role that fitted her type and talents better than this role of the fischievous Teddy. Her dash ing beauty, whether enhanced by the many stunning costumes which she wears in some Of the scenes, or the bath water which she wears in one amusing scene with her harasse chaperon, is of a kind peculiarly suited to the sailcy role.

FARMERS SEEK RICH MAN
WHO WANDERS IN WOODS

MONTREAL. Quebec. Feb. g.
Farmers in the neighborhood Of
Kemptville, Ontario, are engaged in
a man-hunt, but not with any blood
thirsty intent. Their quarry, they
believe, is Ambrose Small, million
aire theatrical man, who disappeared
few months ago as completely as
though the earth had opened and
swallowed him up.
Four days ago, mysterious
stranger called at the farm Of w.
f. James, Kemptville. and asked for
shelter. He said he was George
Bailey, the son Of wealthy farmer.
His description tailed with that of
the missing millionaire. but when
questioned on the subject he sudden
ly disappeared. Residents Of the
community, believing that the man
really was Small and that his mind
had become affected, are making a
widespread search.
