"Principally, they consisted of wild

Suddenly from the weeds came a cry
dismal, mournful, scary P
"Whoel Toe-whoo! Toe-whool"
Jack tumbled out of bed and stum

could sec at first was the blinking nnd
the twinkling of thousands of tiny
lights "the stars In the night sky.
Soen, however, he made out n figure In

window of the bungalow next deer.
"Jack," whispered Janet. "Did
you hear that cry from the weeds?"
"Yes." Jack whispered back. "What
was It?"
"I don't knew." said Janet. '"It
woke me up and I heard only part
of It."

Gwan-te'Bed Stories
The Tdiler Who Went Mad
4. V v. , .fl -
By J. P. McEVOY
ONCE upon n time, denr' children,
there wn n darling little tailor who
spent nil his days making clothes for
everybody who would stand still long
enough te be measured.' He was never
se happy as when he wns cutting up n
let of geed cloth te nlakc n few -bum
clothes. I trust that jeu understand
wjiat daddy menus by the quaint col
loquial word "bum." It li net often
that daddy steeps te the usage of the
patois of the proletariat. (Johnny, get
off the plain). )
Every day men would come In nnd
say le Stephen (for It wns' indeed he).
"Stephen, make ine n suit of clothes,"
and Stephen would get out his tape
measure, go all' ever them fondly anil
minutely nnd then mnke them what
ever slies of suits he preferred te mrfke.
Sometime he took pieces of chalk
nml fieured out these slr.es nil ever the
suits they were wearing, and sometimes
0
he allowed himself the rare pleasure of
figuring ,out en their lapels or treuscr
legs jusl what his profits would be ir
he ever had any, but usually his tears
fell se fast when he get the answer
he couldn't bencje leek at It. .
NB day'n tall man named Julius
came In te see Stephen.
