TELL me a % PLAYTIMfr- THE WITCH AND THE DWARF One day a tiny dwarf sat crying by the roadside, when a kind old witch came hobbling along and asked him to tell her his troubles. The dwarf told her he was crying because he was crippled and could not run about as the other dwarfs did. "Nobody loves me." lie said, "and I am very unhappy." "I will try to help you.'' said the Witch. "I cannot make you beauti- ful In figure, but I'm sure I can make you happy If you will do as I tell you. "Not far beyond the woods lives ? little dwarf who Is ill all the time. Go over and take care of him, read to him and tell him stories. Then there is a little fairy living nearby whom you must help with her flow- ers. Do these tasks for nine days, and on the ninth day meet me here and tell me if you are still un- happy." The little dwarf did as he was told, singing and telling pretty fairy stories to the sick dwarf and planting whole rows of flowers for the little fairy's garden. On the ninth day he met the witch at the roadside again. "How are you today?" asked the Witch. "I have boen doing so many things to make other people happy that I haven't thought about my- self, but I really am much happier," \u25a0Aid the dwarf. The witch nodded her head Wisely.

When the Invlncibles and Ama- zons, base ball teams composed of southwest Virginia society girls, began to play base ball in the sum- mer, the players appeared in walk- ing skirts and high heeled slippers. The result was lame fingers, twisted ankles, torn clolhes, flash- es of lingerie, discomfiture of the players and howls of Joy from the masculine members of the audie- nce. This was months ago. Now the Invlncibles and Amazons, as the rival teams are called, appear in bloomer costume ?or at least it is reported that they do ?a positive statement to this effect cannot be made by mere man, as men are happier when we forget ourselves and help our friends." When you find It necessary to patch your wall paper, and the patch ls so much brighter than the old, try hanging the patch out In the sun awhile to fade. It will look much better when the job Is com- pleted than If patched with the bright, new piece. People who suffer from sleepless- ness should try sleeping out of doors. It's better than a vacation at the seashore or mountains. Use ravelings of the same goods when you wish to mend garments of woolen material. If neatly done, the mend will be almost invisible. A few drops of lemon juice added to the water in which rice is boiled will make the kernels whiter and impart a delicious flavor. AIR INFLATES, KILLS MAN (By United Press.)
