THE TINYMITES

(READ THE STORY, THEN COLOR THE PICTURE)

“Hey, look at Slim! He’s far below, as high up in the air we go,’’ cri- and Duncy. “Gee, but this is fun. It’s like a big balloon. “I don’t know where we’re bound for, now, but we will reach the place, somehow. I’ll bet ’twill be exciting, and I hope we get there soon.” “Oh, just, sit down and do not fret. The best thing we can do is let the tulip take us where it will,” snapped Scouty. “We’re all right, "We may as well enjoy this ride. It’s something we have never tried. The floating clouds above us make a very pretty sight.” So, on they sailed for quite a while, and then fair Goldy, with a smile, taid. "Say. I’m getting drowsy. It must be the nice, fresh air. "Why doesn’t just one tot stay awake? The rest a nice, long nap can take. We’ll all take turns at playing guard. I think that that sounds fair.”

I think we’re picking up some speed. The wind is getting strong.” For ’bout an hour the Tinies slept, while watch o’er them have Coppy kept. Then, suddenly, he shouted. “Wake up, tots, and look around. “I see some land below, at last, and we are dropping very fast.” The Tinies woke, and Windy said, "We’re heading for the ground!” Down, down they went. Then Dotty cried, "Here comes the pnd of our fine ride! The tulip’s tipping over. Oh, what is to be our lot?” The flow'er shortly swung around and dropped the Tinies toward the ground. They landed, one by one, right in a monstrous flower pot.

The ape-man foresaw a continuous repetition of this evasion and pursuit until at last his lameness exposed him to seizure. Now the handicapped ape-man decided upon another, but equally hopeless, maneuver. He turned and stood still in the face of the jungle juggernaut!
