age came to lift and ran around on the
mantel Just for exercise, but he never
said a word a) out ll to hi* parents because
they wire very piac'.lcal people who wrout]
have said he waa dreaming.
Horace n as never very wideawake when
the Chinaman came to life because It
always ha: p. tied at twelve when the boy
was sleeping heavily, hut he Always roue

Horace mi not a headlong boy. and h#
waited a minute before answering, bit on

should not mak# the Chinaman big if he

from Hong Kong, had stood on th# manc-l

that he would never have laid hinds on

"Grow big lik# Ah I>ee ard m** "
Slowly, slowly, that Is to say, about a
hundred times as fast n* the fastest
climbing vine grows, th© little Chinaman
increased In stature until h# was four
f**et lx. or Just the hight of Horace.
Horan #• had thought he would <k> some
tiling; sing a song or do some tricks, but
t\b merely curled hlnrwlf up on the rag
carpet and went to sleep and Hora e Im
mediately followed his example and slept
until daybreak.
When the boy awoke It wa© daylight and
the CMniman was gone. Horace glanced
itt the manu 1. half expecting to see the
ranilliar figure there, but its place looked
lonely; the Image was gone.
Horace's father and mother were vis

Kitty h nl always been a great hand for

was afraid that the wlxard would change
