ADVENTURES
LAND OF SURPRISES
By DADDY
Ho liked my scenarios,
I worked nights over' them.
I combined them in a play.
Tho broker sold it for me.
Advanco royalties wcro $5000.
Tw6 MB3. came in one day.
They wcro from my editor enemies.
My stolen stories, of course.
They wcro now being filmed.
Stage rl&hts were for sale.
Price, $5000 each,.
I kept them thrco months,
My pluy opened on Broadway.
It was a plnch-hlttcr, S. It. O.
I returned both MBS.
Sorry thoy wouldn't do.
But would they try again?
They had ability. (At stealing.)
Good playa wcro scarce.
Prices ran into the thousands.
I sent tickets for my own play.
They saw it together.
They called mo awful names.
There was bluster about suing.
I smiled provokingly:
"My stories were stolen by you.
Tien you sold them to each other.
I can prove it now.
I havo your rejection slips dated,
T hired your filing clerks.
One is now my secretary.
The other io at our mvltchboard.
What are you going to do about it?"
They gnashed their teeth and went.
Isn't it odd?
Film folks steal a story from you.
But they roar if you steal it back.

CHAPTEU II
Tli Mlo Hope
PEGGY'S eyes grow big in dismay
when sho looked at tho Rler of the
Brie, through which sho must pass to
rach the strango land where surprising
things happen. ... . ...
Tho river rushed down from the
mountain, swept mlghtly across a. rocky
ledw. then plunged In a waterfall to the
hrotd lake below. It wbh too deep to
wade and no swimmer could make his
way through the powerful current. Ho
would be swept ocr tho brink of the
waterfall before he could possibly gain
the other side.
Bejond It lay the land of surprising
things, looking wondrously fair and
mjaterlous and tempting. Peggy ws
nger to get over there to see what sur
rflilng things would happen; but how
could sho pass that raging river?
Those who are brave will not stay
on this side ;
ThoJe who aro brave will find a way
to that side."
The Little Wizard again repeated his
little wng and chuckled, while the ani
mals, Woggle. Hoggle and Weo, winked
their eyes merrily at Peggy. They were
raaJctog fun of her puzzled look.
Those who are brave will find a way
to that eldo," repeated Peggy to herself.
r m.ia T nm hriivn hut I CJUl't See
any way across. Billy Is brave. If he
were hero he might find a way."
Then Peggy suddenly gave a cry of
Joy. "Why, Billy Is here!" ehe ex
claimed "I had forgotten all about his
being with us. He is here, but Invisible.
Billy! Billy! How shall I find a way
across the River of the Brave?"
Quick as a flash the answer came from
a rock beside which the Little Wizard
Was standing. . .
'Of course I'm hero," cried Billy's
voice "And If you will bo very brave,
fegiry, 1 11 help you over the river."
"How ?" asked Peggy. "Will you carry
me ocr?"
"Xo; that cannot be. You must pass
through the water either swimming or
rlalnff," replied Billy'H voice.
nlni
"SiUmmii
riding, I would be
nir or
nw.nl nnr the falls." declared Feggy.
Tho Little Wizard chuckle and spoke
a veree :
' Safe, safe you would be
If tied to a tree."
Perry thoueht he was mocking her.
Of course she would bo safe tied
to a
uldn't
tree: but If tied to a tree she coul
pass the rler Into the land of surpris
ing things Billy, however, seemed to
caich quickly at tho Little Wizard's
auggettlon
"That's the right Idea," cried Billy's
olce. If you could throw a rope over
the top of that stump on tho other side
of the river, you could hold tight to the
other end and the current would swing
you across "
"But where would we get the rope?"
asked Peggy, to whom the plan sounded
well If It could be made to work. The
Little Wizard chuckled and spoke an
other orse
"Hair from your head
I'll turn to thread.
Then thread to rope,
'Twill do, I hope."
While Peggy was wondering what
these strange words might mean, the
Little Wizard pulled several halra from
her head, doing It so deftly he never
hurt a bit. These hairs he twlstod to-
ether, stopping every moment or two to
reathe upon them. And as he twisted
and breathed, a rope began to come out
through his hands, Hko a enake out of
a hole, until there waB a long rope Just
like niuys laeso
' What wonderful magic I" orled Peggy.
ow, how will we get the end of the
rope across tho river?"
Ill carry It across!" cried Billy's
voice Turn your back, Peggy, bo tho
enarm of tho rope will not be Broken "
Peggy turned her back She heard a
JjUen, bb of a ropo flying through the
air. Ihcre!" cried Billy's voice; and
ggy turned to see the ropo stretching
across the river, with the noose tightly
