Where the silver maple grows, You will find a little nook e nh af r-itb co1id ciluar fl0xr-c

These lines were signed, "Your Crate full Goblin"
 The man at once understood all. He knew where the box came from, and he knew that the goblin who had been in the oak had intended this for Nick. "Nick is fool" the man said to himself. "I am going to lift the treasure. Why did he not keep the box for himself?"
 He accordingly went into the forest. He found the little nook, just as he was told, beside the silver maple tree. Ex- amining the ground, he noticed tiny keyhole. He had already put the key into the hole; he turned it around, and he saw the shining silver in the nook, when his hand was suddenly arrested by the goblin.
 "You are not the man who liberated me from the oak treer' said the little man.
 The thief then had to confess that he got hold of the box because his neighbor Nick could not read backward
 "Well, you had no business to bo a thief, and you certainly had no right to take that box which did not belong to you"
 'I am sorry" replied the man; eff you will forgive me will go home and tell Nickson all about this silver treas ure. and he can come and getit himself"
 "No, there is no necessity for that. Anyhow, do not believe you would keep your word. But now that you have found this silver treasure, take 1t and carry it to your home; it shall be yours" Then the goblin vanished.
 The man at once began to fill his pock- cts with silver. When they were filled he took his cap, then his handkerchief, then he took off his coat and used it as bag. But when all were filled he could not carry the load; it was too heavy. So ha had to leave some behind. He hurried home and gave the silver to his wife, then he took wheelbarrow and return ed to the work by the brook. He loaded the wheelbarrow to its utmost capacity before he left for home. On his way to his cottage, however, he had to cross a small bridge which led over stream, and when he was in the center of this bridge the boards broke under him, and the wheelbarrow. the silver and the man fell down into the deep. The load had been too heavy. The man was too greedy; he wanted too much, and now he was drowned and he had nothing at all. It was fortunate for his wife and children that he had brought some of the treasure home, and they were saved | from starvation.
 Now we will return to Nick Nickson. the woodchopper. He never missed the little black box at all. Next morning he returned to the forest and worked away at chopping down trees as hard as ever. | Sometimes he would think about the l goblin, and then Nick would murmur "The world is very ungrateful. The next goblin 1 find in tree has to stay there for all I care"
 After he had chopped down one tree he was astonished to find again little black box at the roots. He picked it uI again, and on the top these words could be read again: "Open mo-" But thi; time the writing was straight. and not backward; so Nick read it at once, and of course, understood.
 "Open yur! All right, that is easily done." He put the box on the ground took his ax, hit it one stroke and the boy was smashed. Inside Nick found piece of paper wound around a beautiful golden key of the finest workmanship Nick took the paper and, looking at i close, he saw that it contained the fol lowing verse:
 At the castle on the mount
 Is golden treasure,
 Where golden rod is often found
 Waiting for your measure.
 The slip of paper was signed: "Tht Grateful Goblin" Nick looked at tn writing long and intently. "Wen," h. said, at last, Il will at once go and fnt out whether that goblin has played an other trick on me. I might as well b fooled twice as once"
 He immediately ran toward the noun tain, which stood not far into the forest Arrived there he climbed up the steel ascent, and when he got to the walls o the castle he walked all around until h found the yellow golden rod growth; everywhere. Then he examined tn wall. In a moment he noticed a smal hole in the wall, which seemed to hay been made for his golden key. Putin, it in the hole and turning round wa done in a second. Nick already behel, the glittering mass of shining gold befor him when the goblin appeared.
 ''So here you are, then," he said t Nick; "so you did not give the box ava, this time. Why did you not keep tn other?"
 , Nick explained to the goblin that Il did not know what the box contained. "Why did you not open it?" "I don't know"
 "Well, your neighbor did, though, an, he got silver treasure. But punishe, him before he was able to enjoy it, an, he is now dead in the stream. Now , look here. Nick, you fancied that dit not mean to give you your reward a promised"
 f "Well, it looked like it, did it not?" , Looked like it has nothing to do wit 1 it. You should have trusted me, an s have little patience. However, yo1 are pretty good fellow, Nick, and nov , here is your treasure. Enjoy it wit your wife and children, live long and b happy; good-by, and remember some times the Grateful Goblin" Nick was now alone with his treasure He took good lot home with him, an f: he and his dear ones lived in the futur l as happy as happy can be.-Globe-Dem : ocrat.
