a pair of small, gray eyes, sharp as gimlets,
on the Queen, said, "What's the matter,
eh?"
.'Oh, my dear sir" sobbed the Queen, u.s.
ing her pocket handkerchief great deal,
''my lovely boy beheld the moon one woful
night, and has cried to have it ever since, till
his life is wasting in tears and sighs.
"Fiddlestickp growled the doctor.
The Queen could not believe her ears, so
she pretended not to have heard him, which
is very good way when people say unpIeas-
ant things, and she went on: 'We have had
all the celebrated physicians in the kingdom,
and they have been useless; the King and
myself despaired until we heard of your ar
rival; dear sir for any sake, tell us what to
dow
The doctor glared at the Queen until his
blue spectacles burned like Roman candle.
"Spank him!" roared he; and banging the
door behind him, clattered down the palace
stairs.
Prince Packer sat straight up in bed, and
the Queen tumbled down into fit; but as
there was nobody to pick her up, she got over
it at once, and sat square in her chair as she
was before. In rushed the King with the
nose bleed, for he had been listening at the
keyhole, and DR.. .Spanxter bumped his nose
when bounced out.
"Wh-wh-what did he say?" sputtered bis
majesty, though he knew perfectly well.
"Oh, my dear! oh, oh, oh! he said-oh!
shall 1? oh, the ferocious creature! the aw-
full man! he said-he-he said: Spank
himp'
"Goo6ness gracious mev, exclaimed the
Kino still monno his roval nose hnt think
