FAIRY'S SECRET.

"a trip to the Yellowstone You are
too good to me. papa"
took her in my arms, my own child,
from whose cheek the rose had faded
and in whose deep-brown eyes sad
shadows had grown.
She was of a nature peculiar to those
whose childhood days have been spent
with elderly people. She felt deeply.
Events that merely rufiied lighter ma
lures left lasting effects upon her. | had
watched her tenderly since her mother
had put her in my arms, aud left me
alone When she grow listlcss and the
sweet eyes dropped, | laid aside all cares
and took her away.
She looked 80 like her mother the day
we took the train at Chicago. Her
brown dress, just matching her eyes,
lent deeper shade to her chestnut hair.
As We neared city in Northern ILL
nois Fairy exclaimed "Oh, papa, is
this another Rome 2 Surely it is city
built on seven hills"
"Galena !" shouted the brakeman.
