In the middle Of the garden was a pond,
In the center Of which was group Of fish
tailed ses gods. who, sitting upon spout
ing dolphins. were blowing their shell
trumpets.
All the world admired this garden.
There was only one person whom It did
not piease-this was the kings young and
most beautiful daughter. Those shameless
heather gods frightened her. and she al
ways avoided the garden.
Therefore the king, who loved lis daugh-
Ter above all the world, sent for young
gardener, who had travelled through many
lands and had seen many splendid things,
and commanded him to mike new gar

her birthday

birthday came tho gardener stood at the
entrance gnte and held sslver on which

Then dreadful thing happened. A fat,
green frog which waa sitting In the reeds
looking out for water ladies, being dis
turbed by the rustic Of silken garments,
made great jump and plunged into tho
water 80 violently that tbs drops spurted
up.
Every one screamed, and the princess
sank down, all pale, upon the ground.
Now the court duenna hastened her steps
