The only trouble now was th©-fact that both Magtc books were Invisible and If the Raggedys did not hold on to them, the two Magic books might easily get lost for good. Bo. Raggedy Andy held them very tightly as he climbed down the rope ladder which led from the ground up to the Witch's house. "Oh, dear!" Raggedy Ann cried when they had only climbed half way down the rope ladder, here comes the mean old Witch home again. What shall we do?” "Shall we climb back up and hide In the Witch's house?” Rittle Rags puppy dog asked. He was being car ried by Raggedy Ann for little puppy dogs can not climb down rope ladders very well! “1 am afraid that she lias already seen us!" Raggedy Ann replied. This was indeed quite true for as Raggedy Ann spoke, the mean old Witch gave an angry howl, like this, "ahwoo!” and ran towards the rope ladder. Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy Immediately started to eltmb up to the Witch's house again. "We will close and lock the door!” Raggedy Ann said, "Then she will be unable to get Inside!” In a moment, the mean old Witch reached the rope ladder and tried to •hake It and make the Raggedys tumble to the ground but th« Rag gedys knew this was just what she would do, so they held on real tight and finally reached the top. Then they ran in th« door and were just about to close and lock the door when Raggedy Andy cried "Walt a minute, Raggedy Ann!” and went out upon the Witch's porch. "What are you going to do. Rag gedy Andy?” Raggedy Ann asked. “I shall wait until the mean old Witch has climbed half way up the ladder and I shall do just as she did to me! I shall shake her off and make her tumble down to the ground!” "Oh, but Raggedy Andy!” Raggedy Ann cried as she caught his sleeve and pulled him Into the house, "You forget that you are stuffed with cot ton and It does not hurt you to tumble from a great high place, but It would hurt the Witch very much to fall ao fart” “That is quite true. Raggedy Ann!" Raggedy Andy aaid aa he locked the door, “And anyway, It waa wrong for me to wish to harm her just because She tried to hurt met” ‘Indeed It was!” Raggedy Ann re plied, “Anyway, the old Witch can not get lnaide her house with the door locked, ao we are safe inside here until ahe gets hungry and has to go away for food! Then we can climb down while she Is away and escape!” My! How the mean old Witch thumped and sputtered at the door but It did her no good, for she soon found that she coul not get in. When Raggedy Andy discovered the nice things in Witch Wiggins’ ice box, he and Raggedy Ann and little Rags puppy dog were very glad, for they knew right away that the ice box was a magic ice box and as soon as the food was used up, the ice box was filled with more food. If it had not been for this, the Rag gedys and little Rags puppy dog would have had a sad time of it. shut up in Witch Wiggins’ house at the top of the great oak tree. For, there they were Inside with the doors locked so that old Witch Wiggins could not get in to take their two Magic books away from them. Old Witch Wiggins lhad to sleep out on the front porch every night while the three friends slept Inside on the Witch's nice clean while soft bed. And even though old Witch Wiggins wished to get at them and would have treated them badly if she c<uild have caught them. Raggedy Ann always gave old Witch Wiggins her breakfast and dinner and supper This she passed out through a crack in the window. It would have been very easy for the Raggedys and little Rags to escape from old Witch Wiggins' house if the two Magic books which the Witch had taken from them had not been made invisible. The Raggedys found the two Magic books hidden under Witch Wiggins' pillow on her bed, but both books were invisible, so, even though the Raggedys could feel the two Magic books, they could not see them. So you see they could not read the directions for making Magic things, or making wishes come true. Of course, neither Raggedy Ann, nor Raggedy Andy could read only from Magle books. Magic books are very nice for that reason, for If a very little child finds a Magic book; even if he, or she cannot read from a little easy as pie story in a primer, why, they can read from a Magic book Just as well as grown up per sons. A Striking Likeness. From the Santa Barbara News. Mrs. Hogan—"An' d’ye know my sis ter? Sliure, we look enough alike t’ be relayted.” Mrs. Murphy—“Ter sister, is It? Shure, 1 know yer sister, Tez look 80 much like her that I would know yez was sisters even if I had nlver seen alther of yes." So It Seems From Judge Country Doctor—Well, Mr. Bayers, how’s the wife? Mr. thyere— I thought that w'as corn in’. Anyone ’ould think I never had such things as rain and frost and blight to concern me! That Is one of the nice things about Magic books, and tihey are all alike. I hope you find one some day! So there the Raggedys were. They had their two Magic books, but the books were invisible. And there the mean old Witch Wiggins was, out on the front porch howling to be let In. And she would not leave. "Just you wait!” old Witch Wig gins howled Into the key ihole. "When I catch you oho! You’ll be sorry! Just you wait!" "Ha, ha, ha!" little Rags puppy dog replied. “Who's afraid of ‘you when you are locked outside?” "You'll be afraid If 1 get inside!” the old Witch howled, "Anyway, I can't understand puppy dog lan guage, so I shall not talk with you!" "Oh dear!" little Rags sighed, "If I only could talk, I'd tell tihat mean old Witch Wiggins just how mean she Is!” “Ha! Ha! I wouldn't listen to you!” the Witch replied, "Even if you could talk!” And Raggedy' Ann, because she did not like quarreling, hurried and got dinner ready. Little Rags puppy dog did not know what to do when he saw ths mean old Witch Wiggins climb into the kitchen window’, tiptoe to Rag gedy Ann's bed room and Raggedy Andy’s bed room. You see, little Rags puppy dog was only a cloth puppy dog and stuffed with cotton, so he could not think quite ae well as Raggedy Ann who had a nice candy heart with the words. "I Love You," printed on it. But when the mean old Witch Wiggins came out of Raggedy Andy's bed room and laughed a real Witcby laugh and said, "Aha! That was ths time I fooled you! Now I havs both Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy tied tight so they cannot escape!" little Rags puppy dog knew his two good friends were in a lot of trouble. And he felt very sad when the old Witch added, "Tomorrow, I shall run them through the clothes wringer and roll them out as flat as pan cakes!” Little Rags puppy dog did not know this would not hurt the Raggedys even one little teeny, weeny smidgin. “Why!" Raggedy Ann could have told him, "We have been run through the clothes wringer before this, when, back in the nursery we would become soiled from being fed so many choco late creams. Then Dinah would wash us in the wash tub and run us through the clothes wringer and hang us out on the clothes line in the nice warm sun to dry." Little Rags puppy dog did not know' this, so he Just hid behind the wood box in the Witch's kitchen and felt extremely ■ad. Old Witch Wiggins cams shuffling cut Into the kitchen after she had tied up the Raggedys. She went te the cupboard to eat some cream puffs before she went to bed and It was then she saw little Rags puppy dog hiding. "Why, what are you doing here?" she cried. “It wouldn’t do the leaet bit of good for me to try and tell you!" little Rags sighed. "Cause Why? Cause 1 can’t talk and you wouldn’t understand me!" “Of course. It would do no goodl” the Witch cried, "Who can under stand what a Rag puppy dog says, I’d like to know?" "That is why I feel so sad!” little Rags puppy dog said, "You see, Rag gedy Ann has promised that If she can uso the two Magic books she will work nice Magic on me so that I can talk!” “Then you can just be as sad as you wish!” the mean Witch said as she stuffed six cream puffs full of cream, "Because Raggedy Ann will never find the two Magic books and you will never, never be able to talk!" “It would be nice for me if she could find them!” the little Rag dog said half to himself. He did not tell the Witch that Raggedy Ann had al ready found the two Magic books. "She can’t find them!” the Witch said again, “I do not mind telling you, for you cannot talk and repeat what I say to Raggedy Ann!” "Why can't the find them?” Rags asked. "Ha, ha, ha!” the Witch laughed, "I made the two Magic hooka Invisible! That’s why and they will not become visible again until someone holds them over a smoke made from six hairs out of my head; and of course, no one except me knows that, ao no one except me can use the two Magic books!” “If I could only talk, I would tell Raggedy Ann!” Rags said. "Aha! But you can’t talk!” the Witch laughed as she brushed the crumbs away and left little Rags puppy dog sitting all alone In th» kitchen. Artistic Triumphs.
