a mussy nobleman. She said, Hes verydirty now, and also gruff and grim, but waittill IVORY SOAP and I have settled up withhim. So with a sponge she scoured himwith sure but certain might, till, presently,from out the suds arose an IVORY knight!Indeed he was completely changed in natureand complexion, and all his energies wereturned in quite a new direction. Ive beenbewitched, he thundered, but regret can dono good. Ill spend my life hereafter as acleanly person should. His henchmen, just emerging from theirtubs, began to cheer. Twas plain a very thor-ough j ob had been completed here. Congratu-lations followed with glad howls from Yowand Snip. Old Dragon growled and waddledround just like a rolling ship. The snowyknight then went to work upon a clean cam-paign, but as weve no more space to-day,we*ll speak of this again.
