“I am Cho-Cho, the Friend of the Children, and this Dog is called Publicity,” said Cho-Cho. “We work together for the Health of the Children.”
Then mounting the Dog’s broad back, they started on their homeward journey.
That night from his Magic Window, Cho-Cho beheld a strange sight, for in the fields and gardens the little Vegetable Men were dancing in the Moonlight, and as they danced, they sang with joy, for the old Witch Ignorance lay helpless in the Forest and they were safe from harm.
The Lovely Bird
One summer day when the city streets were full of heat and dust, and all the world seemed tired, Cho-Cho’s thoughts turned longingly to the country and to the lovely Garden of the little Fairy Health.
Packing his bag and locking the door of his house, Cho-Cho started on a visit to the Fairy.
Within the Fairy’s Garden, screened from the road by trees and bushes, was a lovely dell, and in the center of the dell a Fountain, so beautiful that all who saw it paused to admire its sparkling waters and the beauty of its sculptured figure. This figure was of white marble, carved with rare skill into the form of a little child, and from its uplifted hand the waters of the fountain sprang.
Cho-Cho found the Fairy resting in the cool shade and sank into a seat beside her.
