If the Goblin had not snipped my rubber side with a pair of scissors and let all the air out of me, I would have wrestled him and rescued our friends!” “Now what shall we do?” Raggedy Ann asked, "We cannot climb up to the window at .the top of Hookie’s house, and we cannot break open the door because it is made of iron!” The Howloon considered for a moment and then said, "If there was some way for me to get in under the Goblin’s house, I would raise up real quick and upset it, then when the house tumbled over on its side, you could all run in and respue Raggedy Andy and the Snitznoodie!” “There is a small hole down under the Goblin’s house!” Raggedy Ann said as she looked in that direction, "But it Is much too small for you to crg^yl In!” The Howloon looked at the hole and saw that it was Indeed, much too small. “I tell you what we can do, Rag gedy Ann!" Vie finally said, "You can take a pin and puncture me, ttyen when all the wind is out of me, you can stuff me in the hole under Hook le's house and then blow me up!" “Are you quite sure It will not hurt you to be punctured. Mister How loon?” Raggedy Ann asked. The Howloon laughed, "It will not hurt a smidgin!” he replied. So Raggedy Ann stuck a pin in him and she and Mr. and Mrs. Cookie and the Gingerbread man, all squeezed the Howloon until all the wind was out of him and he was flat again. Then they pushed him into the hole under the Goblin’s house and all took turns pumping him up with a bicycle pump. After they had pumped awhile. Rag gedy Ann said, ‘‘Look, it makes the Goblin’s house tip over sideways!” This was quite true. The more air they pumped into the rubber How loon, the higher he raised the Gob lin’s house at one side. “What are you doing down there?” the Goblin shouted, putting his head out of the window at the top, “The first thing you know you will tip my house over!” "That’s Just what we are trying to do!” Raggedy Ann said, “Then we can rescue Raggedy Andy and the Snitznoodle!” “Better not pump any more!” the Howloon said after awhile, “I am al most twice as large as I have ever been before and I am afraid I may pop, like & toy balloon when it is blown too tight I” “Oh, dear!” Raggedy Ann said, "Just a little more and the house would have tipped over! Let’s all catch hold and pull!” So the Cookie people and Raggedy Ann pulled and pulled, until finally the house tipped right over. But sad to say, it tipped so fast, neither Raggedy Ann nor the Cookie people had time to get out of the way and the house fell right on top of them. “Aha!” the Goblin cried, as he climbed out of his window and saw what had happened, “Now I have captured every last one of you!” And so it seemed. The Howloon’s idea was very good if he could have stood Just a little more air being pumped Into him. Raggedy Ann had stuffed the How loon under the Goblin’s house, then she and the cookie people had taken turns pumping up the Howloon. The more air they pumped into the rubber Howloon, the higher it raised one side of the Goblin's house. But the Howloon called to his friends not to pump any more or he would fly to pieces like a toy balloon when it is blown too large. So they had to stop pumping up the Howloon Just when the funny house of Hookie was about to topple over. Then Raggedy Ann had called the Cookie people and said, “We will all pull and pull the house right over!” It only took a moment to do this, but sad to say, the house tumbled so fast it fell right on top of Raggedy Ann and all the Cooale people. Hookie the Goblin, when the house fell, put his head out of the window, then he climbed out. When he saw what had happened, he was delight ed. “Aha! Raggedy Ann and all her friends are under the house and can't get out and I have Raggedy Andy locked up in a trunk and the Snitznoodle is locked up in a closet! Now, I have captured every last one of you, Just as 1 said I would do!” “Aha! Is that so?” The Howlom cried, right behind Hookie the Gob lin. For you see, when jthe house tipped over, the Howloon was free. He was all covered with spider webs and leaves and dust and dirt. It was hard to tell that he was the same creature. Raggedy Ann and the Cookie people had pumped so much air info the Howloon he was now twice as large as he had ever been before. MR. MC'ADOO NEUTRAL. Washington, Jan. 15.—William M.

P.)—Six bandits held up a score of employes and two customers in the West Side Savings and Trust company here Tuesday and escaped with 526,850. The robberr fled in two automobiles. I "Dear me!" Hookle the Goblin thought to himself, ‘‘What kind of a fierce creature is this? lie may try to wrestle me and I am afraid to wrestle with such a big thing! Maybe I'd better run!" And without even waiting to excuse himself, Hook ie the Goblin ran away through the woods. The Howloon was very much sur prised, for he did not have a looking glass in his pocket; nor did he have a pocket to put & looking glass in had he had a looking glass to put In the pocket which he did not have; ao he could not tell why the Goblin was afraid. *Tm glad he Is afraid!” the How loon said, "For I did not care to have him around here while I rescue my friends!” So the Howloon went to the Goblin’s shed and found a real long Iron bar. Then he placed a stone near the end of the house and . with the long iron bar resting on the stone he was able very easily t > ratss the house high enough so that Rag- ‘ gedy Ann could crawl out and pull the > Cookie people out also. Then the Howloon took the long iron bar and punched the iron door right in two. Raggedy Ann and her friends lost no time In running in side and rescuing Raggedy Andy and the ^nltznoodle. “Now, we are all together again,’* Mrs. Cookie said. "Let us go to my house and have a fine dinner to cel- j ebrate our happiness!” And all thought this was a nice, pleasant thing to fo. When Raggedy Ann and the Cookie people had been rescued from under the Goblin’s house by the Howloon, Raggedy Ann lost no time In running In the house and unlocking the trunk In which the Goblin had placed Rag gedy Andy. Then she and Raggedy Andy ran to the closet and rescued the nice, kind Snltznoodle. vvneei' the Snitznoodle cried, "I knew you would rescue me before long!”' Everyone was very glad that everything had turned out so nicely. They laughed and chatted as they walked through the woods towards the house of the Cookie people, for they knew that Just as soon as they reached there Mrs. Cookie would get a fine dinner. Mrs. Cookie promised this too aa they walked along. “Now let me see!” Mrs. Cookie said out loud, "Which would you rather have cake chicken or cake turkey, or cake duck stuffed with ice cream?” Some said they would rather have the cake chicken; some said tur key and some said the cake duck. “Then,” laughed Mrs. Cookie, “we will have all three, for I have a lot of them all ready In my cupboard and all I have to do Is to set the table." “Then let’e all catch hold of hands and run to Mrs. Cookie's house as fast as we can!” the Snitznoodle said, “I know we are all very hun gry!" And of course, after the very excit ing adventures they had, they were all very hungry; In fact extremely hungry. “And after we have the cake tur key and chicken and ducks, we will have some ice cream cones and cream puffs and chocolate candy I” Mrs. Cookie said. “OOOHi” everyone cried happily, “That will be very nice!" So they all caught hold of hands and ran as fast as they could. It did not take very long to reach Mrs. Cookie’s cute little house. The house was made out of cake and had a roof of red candy. It was the sweetest little house. "Here we arel” Mrs. Cookie said. Raggedy Andy ran to the door to open it for the others to go in, for he was very polite, but what was his surprise to find the door locked. “Have you the key, Mrs. Cookie?" Raggedy Andy asked. “I did not lock the door when ws left!” Mrs. Cookie replied. “Dear me! It is locked nowl" Raggedy Andy said. Then they heard some one inside the house wmlklng around and final ly the voice of Hookie the Goblin came out through the key hole. “What do you want? Nobody Is at home!” “You open this door, Mister Hook le!” Raggedy Andy said, "If you don’t I’ll come in and wrestle you!" “And I will come in and give you * very hard thump!” the Snitznoodle promised. Ha! Ha! Hal" Hookie the Goblin I laughed. "Come right in then! I’d | like to see you do It! That’S what! You tipped my house over, so I have captured this house! Now you can sleep out In the woods and eat berries, for I Intend to live here from now on!” "Dear me!” Mrs. Cookie sighed. "What shall we do?” And as no ont knew what to suggest, they all went out In the gardsa and sat down. Heroic Rsmsdy. From the New York Herald.

These poisons, absorbed by the blood, are carried throughout the body. Headaches follow. Biliousness, sleepless nights, lack of energy, all result from constipation. Each of these takes away piecemeal something of your health and strength. In time, intestinal poisoning due to lack of internal cleanliness may cause the breakdown of some vital organ. Medical science, through knowl edge of the intestinal tract gained by X-ray observation, has found at last in lubrication a means of overcoming constipation. The gen tle lubricant, Nujol, penetrates and softens the hard food waste and thus hastens its passage through and out of the body.
