 You bet did" the witch chuckled And I know what you did to my sis ter Minga! You thumped her with your head, magical hobby horse but have magiced myself so that you can not touch me. Just try!"
 The hobby horse tried, but found he could not bump into the witch at all.
 "Ha. Iia! Sec what told you?' the witch howied again. Now will you give me the book. Raggedy Andy. or shall l take it away from you?"
 Raggedy Andy instead of saying anything to the witch kept getting clorar to the window and when he was clc5e enough, he gave a leap and oHt he went, rolling over and over when he hit the ground. Then he got up and ran into the busheG.
 "Stop the house on wheels! l must catch him!" tho witch cried. but when the house did not stop, she also ran 10 the window and jumped.

 And there was also an Ice whie bed for him to sleep in beside the little white bed for Raggody Ann one for Raggedy Andy and one fol the hobby horse.
 Doesn't the poor man look better since he washed Ahis face and hands Raggedy Andy?" Ragsedy Ann asked as they sat out upon the front porch and watched the scenery as they whizzed by.
 Indeed! He does." Raggedy Andy agreed. Ut makes him look like a new person and guess that is how he happened to food old Minga, the witch and get in her house to rescue me :"
 And I can tell you that l feel like new pcdson tool" the poor man said "I guess really the one reason why I have always been poor is be- cause when ] was little boy, l never liked to wash my face and hands when my mamma told me to; and when l grew up, l still did not like water either. You know the poor man said, If we do not get used to doing the things that are good for us when we arc little, we also neglect them when we grow up. And know now, just why mamma wanted me to keep nice and clean!'
 Why was it?" the hobby horse asked. You see, the hobby horse had cnly been made a very short time and he did not know as many things as you and I know.
 "Why!" the nice poor man said. Mama knew that i, did not al u-ays keep my face and hands clean, I would always be poor, for no one wishes to hire anyone to work for them with dirty face"
 Then. if was q boy, l should all ways keep my hands and face clean!" the hobby horse said. 80 that ] wouldn't have ko grow up into q poor man!"
 "Ycs!" Raggedy Ann agreed. Tt is always best to be clean, for then, you also think nice clean thoughts tool"

GORMAN TO l. T

Jack German, carnival wrestler,
convinced Judge p. w. Metz last
week that he really intended to fol-
low the straight and narrow in the
future and received a short term
at the industrial school near
Worland. In passing sentence Judge
Metz stated that he was establish
ing a precedent in sending a man
% years of age to this institution,
and hal if the defendants record
was not 100 per cent he would be
transferred to Rawlins.
Mr.. German impresses those who
have met him as being a pretty
good sort of a boy who had got
into bad company. If he wishes
to mend his ways and adheres 10 a
good line of conduct it is not likely
that he will be detained for any
length of time.
