THE FAIRY SISTERS.

Sallie stood in the middle of the floor,
with three little dsconsolate wrinkles
in the middle Of her forehead.
Il wish | we're fairy godmother,"
she said. listlestly, picking up one of
baby Harry's little dresses, and drop
ping it again in another wrong place, for
mother to hunt after.
What forY' asked Aunt Helen. laugh
ing to think of fourteen-year old Sallie
being fairy godmother.
"Oh, lots of things! just now I'd wave
my wand and this room would be swept
and busted. and baby Harry would stop
his screeching and the boys would find
something else to do besides plaguing
him, and d have little peace of my
life"
"Why don't you try being fairy sis
teri" said Aunt Helen. smiling.
What should l do?" cried Sallie
eagerly.
The idea struck her fancy.
Everything Her Royal Laziness
wants fairy godmother to do" laughed
Aunt Helen.
Sally tucked on her little blue. lace
trimmed sweeping cap. and soon ap-
peared with the broom for her wand.
After some vigorous fourishes the floor
was as clean as a new pin. and Aunt
Helen was sneeEing with the dust.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1894-12-08

Next. Sallie exchanged the broom for
another magic wand called the duster,
and, prestol all the dust had vanished.
the mantel ornaments we're speckless;
and the sunlight, looking in with an APP
proving smile. came and stretched itself
contentedly on the rug, like great yell
low lapdog.
You never heard such hubbub as
there was in the kitchen, not unless you
have three boys and two babies in your
family.
"Billy's ben an gone an tummled
wight in the -four bal head first! said
little Paul. solemnly. STOPPING over to
look in her face as Salie bent over the
dustpan. "Spoilted all the flour to make
bikkits wiv"
"Aint" spluttered Billy, in hollow
voice from the bottom of the barrel.
"Aintp Hear him, Sallie!" cried
Johnny, doubling up with laughter at
Billys antics in trying to get out.
"P'raps 'tisn't Billy's legs sticking out.
Oh. no! P'raps it's some other boys legs
Oh, yesl"
Sallie couldn't help laughing; but she
went into the pantry, and gave the
empty -four barrel little tip that sent
Billy out, squirming on the floor.
Wanted to make some paste, that's
ALL" exclaimed Billy sheepishly.
Lets mix him up in some cold water.
then" said teasing Johnny; I'm sure
there's plenty of -four in his hair"
mo such thing!" said Sallie, laughing.
Let me brush you, Billy. and then I'll
scrape some -four off the boards for your
paste. Did MT do any hurt to the blk
kits puss cat, cause there wasn't any
there"
She comforted him so we'll that he
was soon able to be around and tending
to his usual upation-that of bother
ing the babies.
What has my little girl been doing to
keep the babies so still this whole after
noonP" asked mamma, coming down
from her long, sweet nap with rested
face and shining eyes.
Just playing" said Sallie.
"She did just exactly everything any
body wanted her to-" cried Johnny and
Billy. who we're trying" the candy in
sticky cups of cold water. played she

As for Sallie, / heard her saying to
Aunt Helen. the other day, that it isn't
worth while to go around wishing for
fairy godmothers when you can do the
things yourself.

under his wing with a defiant little
chirp. Days went by. and each night
fall found Dick little more down
hearted than the previous one. The
merry chirpings and twitterings reached
him family, but he gathered from them
that there was pretty speckled egg in
more than one nest; and he saw. or fan
cied he saw, that White Feather dropped
a little. Dicks heart was softening.
One morning. White Feather few out
by his end Of the Court-very few Of the
eparrows went that way now-and as
she passed. Dick was sure she chirped
plaintively. PUT it back! Put it backI'
The Court was now quite deserted; and
Dick, withdrawing from his own nest the
silver coil, replaced it in Bob's. rolling
tenderly from one side to the other the
two dear little eggs which he found
there.
SPECIFY was the Srst to discover what
had been done, and the good news spread
quickly. The judge allowed White
Feather to take to Dick the full forgive
ness OF the Court, and to invite him
back to it's privileges.
For the first time for many days. the
vesper chorus was full, 30 full Of real
Joy that the grocer, as he put up his
shutters, felt his own heart lifted up.

sToNE-wALL PHILOSOPHER.

We love the-clesr blue mountains,
With the graceful, rounding domes'
And the lake with Its fringed Islands
And its circle Of summer homes.
But the dearest summer pleasure
Which our happy thoughts recall
Ia our gay little friend the chiPmunk'
Who lived In the old stone wal.
All days we're good to the chipmunk,
He knew neither pain nor care.
SIC basked In the summer sunshine
And frisked In the pleasant air;
But the rain never caused him trouble,
Nor made his spirits fall,
He smiled on the heaviest downpour
From niche In the safe stone wall.
He worked every hour Of the morning
ASH winter were coming soon.
And he took not q moments respite
Through the long. hot afternoon.
His wishes were never consulted,
And his rights were counted small;
He had really but one sure refuge,
His home in the gray stone wall.
whatever misfortune befell him
His shrewd little eyes were bright,
His stout little heart was merry,
And his cheerful f0t tsteps light.
And we laugh with the little chipmunk,
IT'S good world after all.
And we toss kiss to our neighbor,
Who sits on the old stone wall.

SPARROW COURT.

Gloom reigned in Sparrow Court.
There were no merry twitterings. no
cheerful bird choruses. no good natured
trials of wing to big horse chestnuts and
back. A wrong had been done, and
wrong doing always brings sadness.
You must know that Sparrow Court
is just back Of the long sign at the cor
ner grocery. This sign had been tilted
forward and rooted over, the wise spar
rows declared. for their especial use.
Whether for that, or that it might be
the better seen, no snugger place for the
pretty nest -houses need be desired.
Built we'll in from either end, neither
stray now-hake nor wind-driven sleets
could reach them.
The April nest building and nest-re-
pairing had been going on at great
rate, and when, one day, Bob Sparrow
had brought to the Court long white
hair from Dobbin's tail, and his little
mate, Specky. had deftly coiled it be-
tween the black ones which formed the
lining of their pretty nest every sparrow
heart had throbbed with pride, and the
silvery streak was much admired.
Some days latter Dick Sparrow-"lazy
Dick" they sometimes called him-had
Joined them at the big horse chestnut,
where they were resting on their way
home-for material for nest building
must now be sought far and wide-with
a beautiful silvery hair trailing from his
saucy beak. This was an unusual bit
of good luck, and Dick proudly led the
fight to Sparrow Court. Every bird
resident gathered around to see this
treasure placed inside the nest, which, it
was well-known, Dick hoped to share
with soft hearted little White Feather.
Great was the surprise Of Specky, and
greater still the rage of Bob, when, on
seeking their own nest, they found only
an empty space where the silver streak
had once been. Dick, in mis- anger,
roundly accused Bob of pilfering, and
would have had it out with him then
and there; but Judge Sparrow reminded
him that Dick had right to be heard.
When placed on trial, Dick boldly as
serted that Dobbin had shaken the hair
out Of his long tail that very day, and.
moreover, added that he had no doubt
Dobbin had done so purposely. This
did not seem improbable, for all the
Court knew that Dobbin and Dick we're
friends, and that the former often scat
tered some of his provender. of which
idle Dick got the largest part, as Dobbin
stood munching it while resting between
trips out.
White Feathers heart revived, but
only to sink again when Dame Sparrow,
who had not left the Court that day,
said sadly, that to the best of her be-
lief Dobbin had been off duty all day,
and had not stood for one moment in his
accustomed place. The grocer was con-
suited and confirmed the Danes be-
lief. and it was this state of things which
had caused the afore mentioned gloom.
Dick could not clear himself Of the
charge, and would not confess the crime.
The Judge, after much thinking, de-
cided that they must all fall to- and
build nest at the very end of the
Court, which nest Dick should occupy
alone until such time as he would right
the wrong. The rest was forthwith
completed, and as the night came on
Dick sought it. and tucked his head

sauntered slowly along
that Monday morning, with his books
strapped together and flung over his
shoulder, he almost felt it in his
heart to wish there were no schools
to go to.
Hal was so busy thinking what
nice drive his father and mother
would have to Uncle Joe's, and wish
ing they had taken him with them
instead of leaving bin behind and
expecting him to go to school, that
he did not see a group of boys across
the street until one of them called
out: "Hal! O Hall o Hal Reed"
Hal looked over at that, and saw
Jesse Turner and Fred and Will Dun
can standing in front of the latter's
home with basket and fishing tackle,
as though about to start on an ex-
petition of some sort.
Come on overp shouted Fred;
and wondering what was up, Hal
obeyed.
"What's the matteri" he asked as
he came within conversational reach
of the trio. Aren't you fellows 60
ing to schoola"
"Nup," said Jesse, laconically, grin
ming with delight at Halls look of
amazement and perplexity, while
Fred fastened to explain the situa
ton.
"We're'going over to Sugar Grove"
he said. Father wants me to do an
errand for him at the mill there, and
he said Will might go along for COM
pany, and then we're going on down
the creek to Spider Bridge and fish.
Father said we might. He says it's
too hot to go to school anyhow, and
it's so early in the term it won't hurt
US to miss one day"
eyes," added Will, eagerly, land
there's some gypsies camped right
near there too, and we're going over
to see them. Come, go long," he
added. "Jesse's going; he just now
took his books home and asked his
mother"
eyes, do, )" chimed in Fred, coaxing
ly, "we'll wait for you while you run
home with your books and tell your
folks"
They're not at home; they've gone
to Uncle Joe's to spend the day."
and Hal thought longingly of the
pleasant day the boys would have
while he was shut up in school peg
ging away at his books
"Pshaw" exclaimed Fred, in tone
of disappointment.
"Why can't you go anyhow sug-
gested Jesse, "They wouldn't care. p"
"Tm afraid they would" said Hal
hesitatingly, but dallying with the
temptation.
81 don't see Why" said Will.
Everybody says it's pity school
began before this hot weather was
over; and anyhow they're l OF here to
ask, and SO it isn't as if they'd said
you could not go"
That's So" assented Fred; ''and
most likely if they were at home
they'd let you go, just like Jesse's
mother"
Now Hal knew pretty we'll what his
father and mother would say if the
matter were referred to them, for they
had talked of taking him with them
to Uncle Joe's that morning, and had
decided not to do so because of school
having begun, and their reluctance
to have him lose time unnecessarily.
But the temptation to go with the
boys was a strong one, and the more
he thought about the fishing and the
gypsy camp the more he longed to
accept their invitation.
Better go" urged Jesse.
Eyes. come on, said Fred, taking

Halls TEMPTATION.

HE days we're as hot as
August days, but it was
early in September, and
the school had begun.
The close confinement
of the schoo,room was
particularly trying and
irksome after the free
dom of the long summer
vacation. At least Hal
Reed found it SO and as he
sauntered slowly along
