Aunt Este's Stories For Children
My Dear little ones:
How would you like to hear a i ory about that funny little
man named "Wind," to-night? He Is such a queer, blustering,
noisy fellow that 1 think you would like to hear a queer, blus
tering, noisy story.
So 1 am going to rhyme one for you—and if you like it
very much you might, write and tell me so
Now listen to the story of HI.I'STKH V \Vl\l>'S
There's a funny little fellow—or is lie big?—no matter he
surely makes folk dance a jig when lie blows aroun with his
"00-00-oo" and on the window plays a loud tattoo.
Now tills funny little fellow, his name Is Wind, Bluster
Wind his mamma called him, for she grinned and grinned, nl
the queer little way he gurgled "00-00-oo", ust as another baby
would have said "goo-goo." .
And this funny little fellow as ho grew big, whenever lie
was naughty lie would dance a Jig, and just as other bovs I
know cry "boo-hoo-hoo," so Bluster went ablowin' round 'with
"00-00-oo."
Though tills funny little fellow has to manhood growji, vit
seems he cannot let his childish ways alone; so he keeps on
aeryin' with his "00-00-oo," and sometimes you can hear him the
whole night through.
And this queer little fellow makes you very mad, by sing-
In' round your window nigliats when you've boeii bad; but he's
atryln' to tell you with his "00-00-oo" that the same thing mav
happen to "you-you-yoiii"
And if you re a naughty fellow and bulster 'round, when
you're only very little with a "boo-boo" sound, when vou're
old and ugly you may have to "boo-boo" too, Just as he'must
always do with ills "00-00-oo."
For tills funny, queer, old fellow doesn't mean a thing lie
lust has to howl and fuss and go blustering—Just because when
he was little lie would "boo-hoo-hoo,' forever he must holler his
"00-00-oo." "
lovingly, AUNT ESTE.
