Created by a acore f famooa artisans over a period of nine years and at a coat of 1485,000, the enchanted capital of fairyland soon la to be booked on a world tour for mllllona to see. Proceed from " exhibitions throughout the United States and abroad will be donated to ; hospitals for crippled children. By this means more than $1,000,000 will $0m n be realised from showings which will require a three-year schedule of rooking in every city in the United . States and an foreign capitals. Constructed of aluminum and copper with fantastic angles and sky-sweeping tur rets and steeples, no semblance of, archltectorar convention la found In this giant abode of little people. Besting on the summit of a ragged precipice, the castle, which Is nine feet wide end nine feet long, rises four " teen feet into the air and weighs approximately 6,000 pounds. The house, excepting rivets,' contains more than 200,000 pieces, being a mechanical marvel of unprecedented Intricacy, yet practicability. Equipped throughout With mechanical wonders in-miniature, the bouse boasts of a solid golden cathedral organ Of teen Inches high, which plays through an elaborate electrical system vis remote, control.;, Miss Moore's famous doll bouse also has the world's smallest electric light bulbs, each being .the slxe of a grain of wheat and Imbedded In sockets with the circumference of plnheada, in a. golden chandelier, strung with glittering, pear-ebaped diamonds. The doll bouse, wired with an electrical system requiring months of labor and experimentation. Is controlled with a series of transformers and switches for each room. All lighting, with the exception of floodlighting In the gar dens, is indirect, with more than 400 small-watt bulbs being utilized In the system. Water tanks On turrets and In the dungeons of the castle feed live fountains In the kitchen, garden and bathrooms. The tanks, on emptying, play beautiful chimes In the steeples every ten minutes automatically. Operated by electricity, a magic feathered nightingale perches on a lavender glass tree in the Garden of Aladdin and sings full-throated, Joyful tones. The doll's bouse contains eleven rooms, Aladdin's Magic garden and Noah's entrance' hall. The furnishings throughout the house represent years of effort In collecting In every part of the world. They are In scale an Inch to the foot and are probably the most priceless In existence.

There be was , - s the bank -Of the Smiling Poo! with water in front of blm and w BeO& roc creeping up right behind -, him. To try to ran back would be to ran right Into Roddy's month. So Dsnny 8wam With Ail His Might for the Other Bank of the Smiling ' Poo, , There wasn't a place for Danny to bide. : - "I told Danny he was foolish to corns over here," muttered Grandfa ther Frog. "I'm rather fond, of the little fellow, and I bate to think that I shall never see blm again." . . : ; . Step Back in the Car! . 'v ' V ' ' if. Screen Star Builds Miniature Doll House Grandfather frog saw fteddy start to spring on Danny Meadow Mouse and closed his big, goggly eyes so that be would not see the dreadful end of Danny. He expected to bear Danny's last despairing squeak, bat instead he beard a splash. Grand father Frog's big goggly eyes flew open, and then he gave a grunt of surprise. On the bank where Danny, had been a second before was Reddy Fox, and If ever there was an angry : and disappointed Fox, that one was Reddy. And there In the Smiling Pool itself ' waa Danny Meadow Mouse swimming straight out to ward the middle as If he were quite as much at home in the water as bis big cousin Jerry Muskrat him self. -,j 'ii''-' ' L From the way he was headed1 It was quite clear that Danny intended to swim across the Smiling Pool to the other bank. "Chugarum I", ex claimed Grandfather Frog. "dhuga rumt Bravo, Danny Meadow Monsei Bravol",' .&.VV . Danny made no reply. Be- was too busy. , He couldn't ' waste his breath . talking.; . Besides,; he was afraid be would swallow some' wa ter and choke.. So be kept right on swimming as hard as ever be could. The truth Is, Danny was In s hurry to reach the other bank. While be wasn't afraid of the water, he was afraid of certain folks who live Id the water. Be knew that Snapper, the great, big Snapping Turtle lives In the Smiling Pool, and, that notb- r tag would make blm happier than a fat meadow .mouse for -his dinner. Then Danny couldn't help but think of Billy Mink. If BUly Mink should happen along, well, - Danny didn't Uke to think of It Ton see, Billy Mink Is also fond of fat meadow mice. - , ' . ' So Danny swam with a: bis might for the ether bank of the Smiling PooL i There were some little holes In that bank where be would feel quite safe. As for Reddy Fox, he looked both foolish and angry. Ton see, Reddy had felt absolutely sure of that Meadow Mouse dinner. As it was, be wouldn't even get a frog dinner, for, at the warning of Red. wing the Blackbird,, all the young frogs-along the edge of the Smiling Pool1 had dived for safety. .--: X Sk T. W. Bars.
