“Oh, I am so wide-awake. I shall

I will have."
So the wide-awake wind went off,
and he took long strides across the
prairies, and great steps across the
tall roofs in the cities and around the
city corners.
And bo took a tumbling, rolling trip
across the ocean, and he took steps
across little brooks and lakes and
rivers, snd then he went to the great
forests. And he sang and the trees
sang.
And all over, that night the wide
awake wind gave his strange, beauti-
ful, wild, lonely, comforting song to
the sleeping world.

It was long past the time when
most people were in bed. It was late
and even those who had felt quite
wide-awake at bedtime were now
sound, sound asleep.
Only the wind was wide-awake.
And why not? The wind had been
sleeping for three whole days.
That is a pretty long sleep and
' enough certainly to rest a strong and
energetic old creature like the wind.
He had been asleep in his own sleep-
ing place. For of course you know
the wind has a special place where he
goes and sleeps.
It is a wonderful place and although
no human has ever seen it, the fairies
and the brownies, the birds and the
breezes, tbe clouds and the sun, all
know about it
And people know a little bit about
IL too. At least they know, after
a fashion, that the wind has a place
where he goes when he wants to sleep.
