tTdoX; and Janet earn tickets to the
ToyviUe ball by doing kind deeds to
poor ohildren. 'With Hobby Bouncer,
Jack's rubber bait, the) tet out for
the ball. On the uay they meet
Isabella-Marie, Janet's former doll,
and Captain Brave, Jaok's' Jormer
toy soldier, Mr. Pieman taken them
to JaoU Front, who fit them out
tcith fine party clothes.
CHAITEn I
At tho Ball
JACK and Janet felt very happy In
the flno pnrtjr clothes Jack Frost
hod dressed them In for the Toyyllli
ball. Janet hnd a frock an dainty and
flltny as fairy laco, whllo Jack looked
lilto nn Ha3tor bunny In his suit of
snowy fur.
Isabollo-Mnrie, the doll, was a beau
tiful lady In her phlramery bnll gown,
and Captain Urave, the foy soldier, wns
mora splendid (linn ever In bis bright,
fresh paint.
Mr. riemnn, who hnd brought them
to Jack Frost to get clothes for the
party, gazed at them In approval.
"Ilutnphl" he grunted. "Now yon
aro just nn nlco looking ns any of the
grand folks who will bo nt tho Toyrllle
Boll."
"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry 1" urged
Bobby Bouncer, tho rubber ball, who
wns bounding up nnd down in his eager
ness to start for the ball. "Hurry! I
hear tho inusic plajlng for the grand
march."
"That sounds llko tho hand organ tho
Italian organ-grinder wns plalng on
our street yesterday." cried Jack, as
tho wliolo party hurrlM after Mr. Pie
man through tho twisting, turning paths
of tho mysterious garden.
"Oh, I hope it it the hand organ, and
that Pietro, the funny little monkey, is
Hill with it," answered Jnnct.
They turned a sharp corner and there
beforo them vis a-smooth lawn bor
dered by blooming plants, trim bushes
and overhanging tree1!. In tn center
was a fountain the water sparkling
liko Jewels of mnny colors in tho bright
Jight of the "milling moon. Among the
hndows of tho bushes and tteea were
tiny flashing lamps fireflies shut up In
lantern-like cnget.
Dancing joyously upon the lawn were
dozens of odd creuturcs.
"Why, it is n masquerade." cried
Janet. So It seemed, for there were
Jumping Jacks, lllephnnts, Teddy
Benrs, Alphabet Letters, Woolly Sheep,
Ilabbits, Clowns. Horses, Kewpics,
Donkeys, l:gs, Tov Soldiers nnd Dolls
of nil sorts Cirl Dolls, Hoy Dolls. In
dian Dolls, Rag Dolls, Chines Dolls.
The party looked like a circus.
"Ho! Ho! Ho!" laughed Bobby
Bouncer. "This Isn't n masquerade.
This is tho Toyvillo ball. Every one
here is a toy except you nnd Jack."
Many of the creatures had sacmed
familiar to Jack nnd Jnnct at first
tight, nnd now they began to recoguizo
old friends they hnd played with mnny
a. time. There wns Janet's Teddy Bear,
which gave her n friendly bug; the
Wooden Elephant nnd Jointed Mule
from Jack's circus set, Betty Brown's
Indian Doll, Willie Honper'B China Pig
Bank, nnd a lot of others they knew.
They felt less llko strangers, but it was
jueer being tiny and playing with live
.toys.
Tho music grew faster and gayer.
Then Jack and Janet saw the music
really was made by n hand organ, nnd
the organ-grinder was none other thnn
Pietro, Jie monkey, who was grinding
away for dear life, and grinning nnd
ranking faces nnd dnuclng, nil at the
same time.
"Take your partners for tho grand
march!" screeched Pietro shrilly.
The Wooden Klcphant stopped before
Janet nnd saluted her. "Will you be
my partner?" he nsked. Janet was sur
prised, but politely bowed her bead.
"Hee-haw! Will you be my part
ner?" said tho Jointed Mule to Jnck.
"Yes," said Jack.
Tho Wooden Elephant and Jointed
Mulo reared on their hind legs, nnd
Janet nud Jnck marched happily with
them.
(The grand march leads them into n
peculiar adventure about which you will
be told tomorrow.)
