This is the moss beautiful castle was ever in!'' the magical wooden hobby horse whispered to the nice poor man, as the two followed the two princes and Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and Minga and Munga down the long marble hall to the great banquet room.
 There were thousands of lights tWinkling through cut glass chande- Hers and hundreds of people waiting to be introduced to the Raggedys and their friends.
 One prince, who seemed 10 be the older, introduced the Raggedys and the two pretty witches, Minga and Munga, also the nice poor man and the magical hobby horse. Then they all sat down to eat.
 My! couldn't begin to tell you all they had to eat, for there were so many, many things, so if you will just think of everything you like, and everything anyone else might like. then you will know part of what they had to eat in the great dining room of the castle.
 There was a great pipe organ at one end of the dining room and sixty little girls sang while the organ played. Then there was great or chestra which played between the songs.
 The name Of one prince was i Charming and the othe's name was Beauty: because they had to have 1 names like those on great occasions; al other times their names were only | Bill and Pete, which of course they liked much better. So after awhile Prince Bill stood up and said, We have waited a long time for the Rag gedys to reach here and bring their friends and now there is nothing more to wait for except to make the nice poor man king!"
 At this all the fine ladies and all he fine men stood and cried. "Whee. Long live the King. the nice poor man."

 Why didn't you send him back the jewels .,, then and let it go at T couldn't very we'll do this after having sold three of them to pay your gambling debts."
 My God. Leslie. I thought I knew you. If anyone hal told me that you had done thing like this, I would never have believed it.
 "I expect you took the six thou sand dollars which l sent to your dad. on this last trip and redeemed the stones you sold?'
 No, have that six thousand dollars now.'
 Then you never got the stones back?"
 "Yes I told Karl when l was in New York .nis last time what had done; I explaine l that we had gotten in very tight place. He insisted on buying the pearls back for me. He said the pearls meant much to him and he would not feel right if anyone else had anything to do in repurchasing them"

 "All right. I will have fifteen thousand dollars in a day or two with which will go over to him with the pearls, and change the map on his face"
 Jack, I have promised Karl Whitney never to send him back the pearls"
 Tt make no difference what you have promised. You are going to send them back"
 T don't understand how you can be so unkind, Jack"
 And I don't understand, Leslie, how you could have been so disloyal to your husband"
 T haven't been disloyal to you, dear. Don't you understand that no wife could be more loyal to her hus- band than I have been to you? But have also been loyal to the ideal of my childhood's sweetheart. Can you not see that to Karl Whitney those foolish beads mean very beautiful dream?"
 "Of course l see it. see that he has always intended that they should also mean to you beautiful dream, until he could bring them to my notice at the right time.
 Leslie, is it possible that you do not see that although your little sis ter was perfectly innocent in the matter, Whitney has from the first intended those pearls should bring you back to him?"
 That is why he sent me this an anonymous letter-the dirty cad!"
 Surely, Jack, you do not think Karl sent you that anonymous let ter?"
 T certainly do. Who else could have sent it?"

 Rev. Mir. Hambrick is further quot cd as saying:
 "it is very unfortunate that our president should have been so care less with his thoughts and words. for in so doing, in my judgment, he has not only dishonored the office he holds, but the God we worship and serve. think it is a shame on our nation, and a slur on christianity.
