"Now it is time to cook the din ner," said Vrouw Vedder. "We will have pork and potatoes and some cabbage. Kit, run to the garden and bring a cabbage; and Kat, you may get the fire ready to cook it, when Kit brings it in." Kat went to the stove but it was such a funny stove!

In a little while the pot was bub bling away merrily; and Father Ved der, who was in the garden, sniffed the air and said:' "I know what we are going to have for dinner." While the pot boiled, Vrouw Ved der scrubbed the floor and wiped the window. Then she took her brooms and scrubbing-brush outside. She scrubbed the door and outside of the house. She scrdubbed the lit tle pig with soap. The little pig squealed, because she got some soap in its eyes. She scrubbed the steps and even the trunk of the poplar tree in. the yard! She scrubbed ev erything in -sight. ' except Father Vedder and the Twins! By and by she came to the door and called: "Come to dinner! Only be sure to leave your wooden shoes outside, when you come into my clean kitchen." Here are the shoes, just as they TWO SHOWS IN ONE LITTLE CARUSO & CO.
