Raggedy A-nn and Raggedy Andy
and Betsy Bonnet String were very
glad that the Tooackquee had invited
them into his house to have dinner,
for after the exciting time they had
had with the bottle imp and the Gee
whiliker, they were very hungry.
"You are a cousin to the Gee
whiliker, aren't you?” Betsy Bonnet
String asked the Tooackquee.
"Yes!” the Tooackquee replied, "but
I never speak to him! You see, when
we were quite small, the Geewhiliker
and I used to play together most of
the time, but the Geewhiliker finally
grew so that every time we played to
gether, he wanted all the toys to play
with, and wanted the largest piece of
cake and candy and everything like
that."
"He was very, very selfish,” Rag
gedcc Andy said.
"Indeed, he was,” the Tooackquee
replied, ''and he grew more selfish
every day until it wasn't any fun
playing with him at all. And the
other creatures who lived near us,
soon found out that the Geewhiliker,
instead of playing nice and sharing
his toys with others was very stingy
and selfish, so they quit playing with
him too. So, when the Geewhiliker
grew up, you may know that no one
liked him very well. For how can
anyone like another who is stingy,
and selfish?”
"No, sir,” Betsy Bonnet String said,
"no one likes a stingy child, nor do
they like that person when he grows
up.”
“Indeed, they dp not,” the Tooack
quee said, “for, you know, if a child
is stingy and selfish with his play
mates, he does not injure them as
much as he doeB himself, for selfish
ness crowds out so much happiness,
it is very hard for even a little Jeeny
weeny fun to enter a stingy person's
life. And that is why I never speak
to the Geewhiliker.
The Tooackquee passed the choco
late eclairs around and then helped
everyone to a glass of milk. When
they had finished their dinner, the
Tooackquee said^ “Now I shall show
you something. This is a wireless
telephone mirror, and whenever you
wish to hear, or see what another
person is doing all you have to do
is to stand in front of it and make a
wish.”
“Let us see what the bottle imp
and the Geewhiliker are doing,” Betsy
Bonnet String suggested, "for they
have caused us so much trouble lately
if we can see what they are doing,
perhaps we can avoid them.”
So Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy
and Betsy Bonnet String and the
Tooackquee stoodi in front of the

magic telephone mirror and wished to
see the bottle imp and Geewhiliker.
And right away they saw that these
two had returned and were hiding
outside the Tooackquee’s door, so that
they could catch Betsy Bonnet String
the moment she stepped out the door.
The Tooackquee never said a word,
he motioned the others to remain
quiet then from a cupboard he took
a very large pan cake pad<dle and
slipped out the back door. The others
waiting quietly inside presently heard
something go “Whacklty Whack!”
and the Tooackquee came in with a
large grin on his face. “They are not
waiting behind the door for you now,”
he laughed.
COUNTY FARM AGENTS
ADVOCATED FOR HAWAII
International News Service.
Honolulu.—Recommendations that
a system of county farm agents
similar to those in America be es
tablished in connection with the Uni
versity of Hawaii, the expense of

port submitted to Governor Wallace
R. Farrington by a committee of uni
versity professors on the marketing
of Hawaiian produce.
Such a system prevailed in the
islands during the war but since
was abandoned. It is particularly
designed to render assistance to
homesteaders and small farmers.

It was Raggedy Ann who thought of
the scheme to change aprons with
Betsy Bonnet String so that if they
were captured by the bottle imp and
the Geewhiliker, they would be able
to escape.
So, when the bffttle imp and the
Geewhilliker locked them in the
closets, all Raggedy Ann had to do,
wa.s to shake the magic apron and
out came a key to the door, and she
and Raggedy Andy then let Betsy
Bonnet String out of another closet.
When they left the bottle Imp’s
home, our friends ran in a different
direction than that taken by the bot
tle imp and the Geewhiliker and they
ran and ran until they had to sit
down and rest.
"Now, I believe I had better give
you back your magic apron,” Rag
gedy Ann said as she handed the
magic apron to Betsy Bonnet String.
Now, when the bottle imp and tho
Geewhiliker left the bottle Imp’s
house they had told Betsy Bonnet
String that they would go visit rela
tives of the Geewhiliker for a week.
But this was not true, because the
only relative the Geewhiliker has is
the Tooack Quee and the Tooaek Queo
never speaks to the Geewhiliker. And
so, as they did not have any relatives
to visit tho bottle imp and the Gee
whiliker just wandered around in the
deep, deep woods until they came to

which the Raggedys and Betsy Bon

ning so long.
And just as Raggedy Ann handed
the magic apron to Betsy Bonnet
String the bottle imp awakened.
"Were you talking?” he asked the
Geewhiliker,
"No!” the Geewhiliker replied. Then
they peeped out of the hole and saw
Betsy Bonnet String and the Rag
gedys sitting right there. The bouie
imp and the Geewhiliker jumped
right out and caught Betsy Bonnet
String.
"We do not know how you managed
to escape from the stuffy closets,
they said to her and the Raggedys,
"hut you shan’t escape when we get
ycu home this time!” And they
started dragging Betsy Bonnet String
away. -
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Ar.dy
pulled the other way as hard as they
could but the bottle imp and the
Geewhiliker were strong.
But just as they turned a bend in
the path a queer looking creature
jumped right in front of them.
“Stop!" he cried.
“Its my cousin, the Tooack Quee!"
the Geewhiliker cried as he started
to run. "I shall stay and fight him!”
the bottle imp cried.
“And I shall stay and fight you
too!’ the Tooack Quee said.
Raggedy Andy put a chip upon
the Tooack Quee’s shoulder, but the
bottle imp was afraid to knock it oif.
Then Raggedy Andy put a chip upon
the bottle imp's shoulder and the
Tooack Quee knocked it off right
away.
“iJcar me," the bottle imp cried, "if
he is not afraid to knock the chip ofi!
my shoulder he must be able to flgnt
real good, so I guess I’ll run!” und lie
did.
"Mow!" said the Tooack Quee,
"come Into my house and have din

Raggedys and Betsy Bonnet String
went into the Tooack Quee’s house
and had the nicest dinner you ever
saw.
BELLS OF NOTRE DAME
TO BE MOTOR OPERATED
International News Service.
Paris.—New things for old—even
old Notre Dame feels she must he
modern and up to date. An electric
motor Is now being installed In the
great towers which will ring the four
great bells of the historic cathedral
peal and take the place of the human
bell ringers.
Officially, the bell ringer of Notre
Dame de Paris is a woman who in
herited the position from a long lino
of ringers, but the work is too heavy
for a woman and she is obliged to
employ men. Since the beginning of
the war in 1914 the bells have not
been heard very often except for im
portant funerals and on big fete da-, s.
If the motor works well there will
likely be more tunes heard around
the old lie de la Cite.
The new Income tax law in Soviet Rus
sia provides that all incomes of more
than $100 a month will pay 80 jier cent,
tax on the excess. This tax will be a bur

salary for government officials Is 2,600,
000,000 rubles per month, but when
translated into real money It amounts
to but $52. These observations are In
teresting from two points of view. They
raise the question whether those seek
ing to communize the United Statees are
willing to pay 80 per cent, of all they
make in excess of $100 a month to the
government, Yh^y also demonstrate the
amazing debauchery of Russian finance
when 2,600,000,000 rubles amounts to ap
proximately the weekly wage of an
American papsrhanger. ,

WHY TAKE
LAXATIVES?
Discovery by Science Ha*
Replaced Them.
Pills and salts give temporary relief
from constipation only at tho expense
of permanent Injury, says an eminent
medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way—a means as simple as Nature it
self.
In perfect health a natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this
natural lubricant Is not sufficient.
Doctors prescribe Nujol because it
acts like this natural lubricant and
thus secures regular bowel movements
by Nature’s own method—lubrication.
As Nujol Is not a medicine or laxa
tive, It cannot gripe and, like pure
water, It is harmless and pleasant.
Nujol Is used in leading hospitals.

Dispersing clouds by magnetized

make ’em is the other half. Probably
making clouds Is the more difficult
half, although it Is only evaporation on
a large scabs. It Is a problem In heat
and moisture. All tlieae matters are
something on which to busy the In
finite human mind. And yet millions
of us think our most satisfying en
deavor Is to “kill time.”
Couldn’t we kill time quite as eflfec- j
tlvely by studying some of the secrets
of nature? Here are men who have
been doing Intellectual stunts in pry
ing into those secrets.
For want of “nothin’ else to do,” why
can’t we all dabble a little in the same
pastime? Give us a laboratory and let j
us go to work with due safeguards

KIND and skilful Mother
Nature planted under the
outer coat of the kernels of her
best food-grains a store of iron
for human use. Many present
day foods are robbed of this and
other vital qualities in the extra
“refinement” of preparation.
Grape-Nuts, that famous
wheat-and-malted-bnrley food,
supplies iron, phosphates and
vitamin from the natural grain;
and in its splendid, well
rounded nutriment and easy
digestion it is a wonderful
builder of health and energy.
There’s a delightful charm
of crispness and flavor to
Grape-Nuts—a welcome serv
ing at any meal. Ready to
serve, with cream or milk.
