Of course, he couldn’t have Ken off that new sult and ewallow- it. if he had wanted to. But it asn’t this that was too . much for O1d Mr. Toad. It was the impudence ¢ the voung Chuek. Old Mr. Toad wallowed hard once or twice, then turned his back and began. to hop away The voung Chuck watched him for momient, and then -the spirit of nischief entered into him. This homely fellow was too small to be ‘raid of. He would tease him a Jittle. So the young Chuck reached it i black paw and turned Old Mr. oad over on his back., Now such little dignity as Old Mr, Toad has, he ioses entirely when he is on his back. it wasn't easy for him to get on his fect again M windows this in a few estab- summer Black frocks s the only close com- or light colors Fabrics are un- g. though, and they make up for the. lack of Several new have made their appearance— ghe | hips, adding the finishing {an_inch_or £o over ne | Chuck | THE VALENTINO CHAPEAU, PERS. gesting sleeves, and a diminuti dotted with coun tir rorebuds.

A border of narrow white lace gives an additional touch of piquancy to this panel. and is effectively con- trasted against the somber black | background. The frock itself is of bluck satin. accordion-pleated, with a long-bloused bodice and an cquall nz skirt. A wide sash of unpleated satin passes through a narrow open- ing in the side panel and ties in a flufty bow at the opposite hip. The ends are daintily frilled with lace to correspond with that on the ros bud-dotted side piece.

The Chuck laughed until he felt as if he would have to hold his sides As soon as Old Mr."Toad was on his feet again the young Chuck turned him over again. He did this several times. ~ Poor Old Mr. Toad grew angrier and agerier. He was so an- gry that is seemed as If he would choke to death. He told that young He told him that he would come to no good end. He said so much that finally the young Chuck lost his tem- per. ow. Chucks do not eag Toads, and Johnny or Polly Chuck would have known better than to take Old Mr. Toad into their mouths. But the voung Chuck, having lost his tem- per. seized Old Mr. Toad, intending to_bite him. He did bite him. It wasn't a very hard bite. but it was hard enough to hurt Old Mr. Toad. Then that young Chuck wished he hadn't. He dropped Old Mr. Toad in a hurry. You see Old Mr. Toad has a kind of poi- son which he uses only when he is In pain and which has no effect unless it is taken into the mouth. There it is most uncomfortable. Old Mr. Toad used it on that young Chuck. So the young Chuck learned another lesson— the lesson that people are not always as harmless as they look. (Copyright, 1923, by T. PAM'S PARIS POSTALS W.
