Mir, Tinkie and Mir. Grabby 1 stomped around upon the roof of the cunning little house in which Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy were visiting the nice little man and lady.
 And Mir. Tinkie and Mir. Grabby not only stomped around on the roof. but they squealed and howed ever 50 loudly. You'd better put the ladder up here and let us down." Mir. Grabby cried.
 Why don't you climb down the chimney as you promised?" the little man asked the two lazy crea- lures.
 "Because!" MT. Tinkie howled you know as we'll as we, that there isn't any chimney on the little house. How do you spect us to cap ture you and puff the magic forget fulness powder upon you if we can't climb down the chimney and cap ture you?"
 I've do not expect you 10 do sol" the little man replied as he winked slyly at Raggedy Andy. Then he said to Mir. Tinkie and MT, Grabby, Tt was you, who expected to cap lure us. And as you have both got ten yourselves into this fix you can get out of 1t the best way possible."
 But there isn't any way for us 10 get down." Mir. Grabby cried, You have taken the ladder away, and it Is too far for us to jump!"
 Are you tired of being up there so soon"" the little lady asked Hs she and the Raggedys came out of the house and stood beside the lit tle man.
 we are very tired!" Mir. Tinkie replied, Tn fact, Mir. Grabby and I are always tired. that's why we wish 10 capture you and live in this cunning little house. We wish you all to do the work for us, so that ue can just sit around and rest Then you may have very nice time of it up there- just sitting and resting" the little man laughed again. we are going down 10 the grocery 10 get q watermelon and some ice cream cones and some lolly pops and cream puffs and sticks of licorice and everything."
 So, the little man went 10 the shed and came out presently with the lovsliest little Shetland pony and cart.
 He helped Raggedy Ann and the little lady in and Raggedy Andy climbed in by himself.
 How long shall you be away?' MT. Tinkie asked.
 oh. Maybe four hours" the lit- lie man replied, That will give you nice long rest!'
 "Bnt we are hungry" NIT. Grabby 4owIsd.
 Then you may eat all the wind sandwiches you wish while we are twav!" the little man replied, Just cut a thick slice and put it between two pieces of air. That's a wind sandwich" And he clicked" to the pretty little pony and he and his friends went riding down the path trough the deep. deep woods.
 Mir. Tinkie and Mir. Graboy tried Q make a few wind sandwiches, put the slice Of wind always slipped out from between the two slices of air. and they were twice as hungry when the RaEgsdys and the little man and lady returned as they had eAen betors.

 Puzzles Madge
 The man standing by the culrert, who had lifted his hat as the car stopped, came rapidly to the ton- nesu floor. l saw that, despite his changed and really modish appear ance, he was indeed the hlackmail- ing tramp who insisted that he was Mother Graham's stepson,
 The appalling claim appeared even more probable now than 1t had in the woods, for from some- where he had secured good ward robe and shave. True, a critical eye could have told that the suit ot clothes he wore was of all older vintage than the current year, and have guessed that the modish top coat so carefully folded over his arm concealed ravages of wear. But his ,hat, shoes, fife and gloves were impeccahle, and in his. new attire he so resembled Dicky that 1 felt myself 20 faint for a second. His first words brought me stiftly erect, however. for they recognized and gauged my reaction 10 his appear arce.

That mean that he had known the Chinese and the army officer. I dismissed the idea as preposterous. but T resolved to ask Lee Chow at the first op

ANOTHER RAP AT HIGH HEELS

A laced shoe is preferable to a .buttoned shoes, The Hces permit the shoe to be drawn snug about the instcp. giving support to the arch.
 If 8 person has a tendency to turn on his ankle it is best to wear high laced shoes. Low shoes are growing popular for the year round. And this is good for most persons. Low shoes permit the air 10 reach the foot. Also they give more freedom to the arch muscles, permitting them tc develop.
 If low shoes were worn from childhood there would be no weak ankles.

YOUNG BOB BEATEN
BY JIMMY DELANEY

VERNON. Calf, September 8 LP).-
Jim Jeffries. who knocked the heavy
weight crown off Bob Fitzsimmons'
head quarter century ago. last night
sat at the ringside and watched his
former foeman's son. young Bob Fitz-
simmons, drop d 10-round decision to
Jimmy Delaney, st. Paul light heavy
weight. in the main event of a fight
card.
FitZsimmons was plainly outcla ssed
by his lighter and clever opponent.
Delaney took all of the opening
rounds. In the ninth he weakened
noticeably and Fitzsimmons scored
with heavy body punches. but the st.
Paul lad came back in the tenth and
completely outboXed his opponent at
the finish.
Fftzsimmons' nose was bleeding be-
fore more than 20 seconds of the first
round had licked off, and in succeed
ing sessions he missed his mark re-
peatedly.
Once, in the sixth. he threw him
self into the ropes with the force of
a wild swing at Delaney In the
same round Delaney helped him into
the ropes with a wallop on the chin.
Much of the fight was slow and
twice its pace was so noticea bly, re-
tarded that the referee VARIED the
fighters he would pull down the cur
tain unless they speeded up their
punches.

BERLENBACH PICKED
TO WHIP SLATTERY
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK. September 9.-Tn view
of Jimmy SlatteTy'S defeat and kayo
by Dave Shade. the ma jority of fight
fans will be inclined to favor Paul
Berlenbach's chances against him o.
Thursday night.
The Buffalo boy has not vet been
asked TO travel more than six round
and 1t seems foolhardy for his MAJ.
ager to ask him to leap into a Is
rounder with a furnishing hitter like
the lightheavy king.
Slattery no doubt figures to dazzle
the slow moving Berlenbach with his
speed and set himself for a one punch
knockout as did Jack Delaney
OF course the Buffalonian is faster
afoot and quicker with his hands than
Delaney. but he should bear in mind
that he is not vet as crafty as the
more experienced French-Canadian
If Slattery saw the fight between
Burley and Delaney. he saw Jack
battered from one side of the ring to
the other for four rounds before he
was able to put over the decisive
punch.
The difference between a 6 and q
10 round bout will be against Slattery,
not only in the way of a drain upon
his strength but in a mental way In
fact the mental side may prove to he
the determining factor in this bout.
Berlenbach has been having trouble
with his hands and there is a faint
suspicion that he had not liked
punishment so well since his knock
out by Delaney. But his murderouS
body punches NAV take the speed out
of the Buffalo fighter. On the other
hand, Slattery may flash the punch
that laid the tough frankie Schoell
low
