Olive Roberts Barton presents Tingaling the fairy landlord of Land-Of Dear Knows Where. Spring arrivals crowd Scrub-Up-Land as birds build in soft materials, and Tingaling, though aged, remains merry. He enforces order like a tiny policeman while keeping houses and doorways of various creatures in balance.
The story recounts Reddy Fox nearly collapsing from hornet stings inflicted by Mia and her family. He limps about with a swollen head while the meadow residents, including Peter Rabbit, mock him for his past troublemaking and mischief.
An ad extols Dr Williams Pink Pills as tonics to build blood and nerves, suitable for children and adults facing nervous strain and fatigue.

It also weaves a fable about Reddy Fox feigning illness to trap Peter Rabbit, ending with a moral note.
Peter Rabbit feigns sympathy for Reddy Fox asking about health and hair care. He exposes Reddy’s hunger by leaping behind a brier patch and scolding him for his blind eye and hunger. The tale contrasts a sham concern with a practical shampoo remedy.
