OF course, you know what long legs the stork has. and of how he will pull one up until it is almost out of sight and stand on the other for ever so long. But storks did not always have long legs, because once on a time they were short. In fact, they were so short they were like duck legs. Way back yonder, ever so many yearsa go there was a fairy named Dimple Dot. who was the messenger for the Fairy Queen. Whenever the Fairy Queen wanted anything at all she would send for Dimple Dot and tell her to so and set it, Usually, when Dimple Dot had to get anything In a hurry she would climb up on the stork's back and make him run just as hard as ever he could. One day the Fairy Queen sent Dimple Dot to the store after some strawberry Ice cream. It was a very hot day and the Fairy Queen was tired and hungry. "Dimple Dot." she told her messen ger, "hurry with that Ice cream." So Dimple Dot called the stork and climbed on his back. "Hurry," she told him. "for the Queen Is waiting." The stork started down the road to the store Just as fast as his short little duck-like legs would take him. Pretty soon they came to the place and Dimple Dot went in. got the ice cream and then mounted the stork's back again. The stork started back home as fast as he could ge and pretty soon they reached the castle. Dimple Dot took the ice cream to the Fairy Queen, who opened it in a hurry. And there, like a pink pond, was the ice cream all melted. Of course, the Queen was very vexed and scolded Dimple Dot. Then she told her to go right back and get some more. When she brought it to the Fairy Queen it was all melted just like the other had been. "The idea." exclaimed the Fairy Queen. "The idea." Poor Dimple Dot did not know what to say or do, but Just stood there cry ing. "Send for the stork," snapped the Queen to a page. When the stork came in and found out what was the matter he began to cry. too. "Stop it this instant!" the Queen told the little fairy and the stork. "Something must be done and done quick." "But what?" wailed both the fairy and the stork. -. "Send for the head bullfrog." snapped the Queen to her page again. Now this old bullfrog was very wise, and whenever the Queen wanted to find out about things she sent for him. So when he came in she told him all ahout the melted Ice cream and how ' Lom and Mystery Ay tJtu Author of QC J HQ Official ChczpevoA JZy Afaialie Scanner Lincoln Who stole the pearls? musfrafad Sl30Afelk&) JU BOOKSTORES O.APM.CTON I, CO. hot and tired she was and of how she wanted it. "Pull his legs, pull his legs." croaked the old bullfrog. "What?" asked the Queen in a pet ulant voice. And then again. "What?" "Pull his legs, pull his legs." kept on croaking the frog. "Well. I declare." was all the Queen could say. Then, finally, "send for the army," she told the page. So the army came and she told the General and the Colonel and all the Captains about the melted ice cream and how hot and tired she was and of how she wanted it and what the old bullfrog had said. "Ve'ry good," said the General, and he started toward the stork. The stork started to run. but the army soon stopped that. And the first thing that he knew he was flat on the palace floor and half the army pull ing one leg and the other half pulling the other one. "Pull," said the General, "null:" And pull they did, until the poor stork thought he would be all legs. When they got tired the army stopped and the stork got up. He was so tall he towered over every one in the room. In fact, he almost touched the palace ceiling. "Oh. lovely." said the Queen. "Now Dimple Dot. go and get my ice cream at once. But Dimple Dot could not climb on the stork's back. Finally, however, the stork lifted her up very gently in hia bill and set her on his back. Then away they started. When they came back tho Ice cream was as hard mm hard could be and the Queen ate it all up. "Well." said the stork. "I'm glad my legs are long now. although I was al most scared to death." And so saying he pulled up one leg and winked at Dimple Dot. And Dimple Dot laughed. (CopyriBhtert. 1!1.1. by the McClure News paper Syndicate. New York City.) Tamorraw't story "Blaekle and Gyp."
