BULGE AND HIS
VERY QUEER PET,
BY LESLIE 8. WOODRUFF.

Mrs. A. Voy, living on Howard
street just beyond the big bend" in
San Miguel, Cal, is the owner of
handsome Newfoundland dog which
has recently become greatly attached
to ke-believe" pussy cat. Bulge,
for that is the dogs very suggestive
name, is a family pet, and during por-
tons of the day, especially at supper
time, when the young members of the
Voy family have returned from their
daily tasks down town. is permitted to
have the freedom of the home and to
frolic as she pleases. But when bed
time comes she must go down to the
basement and sleep on. the coal, with
only the rats, a stray cat or two and
her numerous fleas for company. It
was, no doubt. this absence of con-
genial associates which caused Bulge
to acquire a most peculiar notion. One
day a neighbor threw into the Voys'
basement yard a stuffed cat-one of
at the dry-goods store and stuffs with
cotton for baby to play with.
The Newfoundland was lying in the
yard at the time, baskfng in the sun,
and was attracted by the imitation
tabby. Going to it she nosed 1t gently
for few seconds, then with a warn
ing growl, picked 1t up by the neck.
the way that mother cats carry their
little ones, and carried it into her bed
by the coal bin.
Mrs. Voy witnessed the occurrence.
and going downstairs endeavored to
take the toy cat away from the dog,
but was unable to do so. Suisse
quently the rest of the family In turn
tried to coax the animal to let 1t go,
but without success. At night Bulge
and the stuffed cat are jnseparable.

Then care not, dear godmother; do
with me as you will
The Gray Sorcerer did not wait, but,
raising an iron wand, waved it in front
of Cinderella, who was turned at once
into a hideous old bag. Cinderella saw
herself in a mirror and fled from the
palace, covering her face with her
hands.
CinderelIas stepsisters, who were
watching and listening, were filled with
glee,. and the younger sister now ran
out to where the Prince was.
Dear Prince" she said, "it is to my
sorrow that my sister has returned to
her old condition of a Scullion. Let me
comfort you"
But the Prince scowled at her and
turned away, hearing her hateful
words and neither he nor, Cinderella
was seen at the palace for many
months thereafter
Afar the Prince wandered, over
strange lands and stormy seas. One
day he fell asleep under a palm tree
There Cinderella's fairy godmother
found him. AS she leaned over her
crooked staff and gazed at him he

Babies from Babe-land, who will buy?
Some will laugh and some will cry.

Some look up and some look down.
How dainty each, from foot to crown!
They re tired, you say; well, yes, they are

Far as the farthest blazing star!

He looks at you In sweet surprise.

I'm sure you'll find her good and true,
Although less fair than eyes of blue.
Dear hazel eyes, in pillows deep
I'll let you have at her one peep,
How beautiful she is asleep.
And. last of all, is eyes of gray.
He shrinks before the light of day;
His thoughts are roaming far away.
Which is your choice? 1 hear you say
You'll choose this one with eyes of gray.
He did not come to earth to stay.
Dear, sad gray eyes, I'll choose but thee.
Close to my heart you e'er shall be,
And far shall every shadow fee.
Enough of love I have to spare.
God lent enough for you to share.
Be thou my precious trust and care.

his ears were benumbed by strange
noises that came from every side.
Above all the din the Prince heard an
awful voice saying:
.'One more chance you have, Prince.
Give up Cinderella and marry her sis
ter and you shall live. Refuse and the
rocks beneath you shall crumble and
you shall fall into the river of fire and
be heard of no more forever"
Firm stood the Prince as a statue.
His hands were raised toward heaven.
In his dark and flashing eyes was no
sign of fear. No, on his face there was

Gentle hands seemed to be staying his

upon a bed of flowers, in great gar

When he opened his eyes and looked

"Bravely spoken, fair Prince. You
will have your courage we'll tried"
A league to the south Of the palm
tree rose a mountain that was all one
ruby. To this mountain the fairy led
the Prince. Striking upon door in
the side of the mountain, with her
crooked staff, the fairy told the Prince
to enter. The door opened, and the
Prince went in. A few steps onward he
saw a statue, on (which We're the words :
Stop, kind friend. and take my hand;

The Prince reached forth to the stat

with his right hand. His quick thought

woman called to him-an DID,
wrinkled woman. She stood on lit
tie island in a river that the Prince had
not seen. On either bank of the river
stood a fierce lion. They were guards
set there to keep the old woman pris
oner upon the island. The lions were
very large and very .ferooious- The
Prince thought of Cinderella. While
she was so dear to- him, and he knew
that he would risk his life to go to the
rescue of the old woman, he ran to the
river bank The lion on that side of
the river crouched,. ready to spring;
and from it's shaggy throat came a
roar that we'll might have frightened
the Prince.
Holding his sword firmly the Prince
went toward the lion. In an instant

Crash The Princes sword and the
huge lion have come together. Down
fell the lion and melted away into thin
air So the Prince knew that the lion
had been put in his way by magic and
that his courage had been tested. The
river and the island and the old woman
had gone from sight and the Prince was
alone in gloomy cavern, through
which he CROPPED his way in complete
darkness.
From the roof Of the cavern dripped
a liquid that made the floor of the cav
ern very slippery Far away the Prince
saw q faint light. Falling often upon
sharp pointed rocks, and hearing the
hissings of snakes all about him. but
never daunted, he marched forward to-
ward the light. Soon the passage grew
so low and narrow that the Prince was,

Fierce voices shrieked at him. He
would not stop.
In the very heart Of the mountain of
ruby he found wide. open space. No
sooner had he entered there than on all
sides he was surrounded by a river of
fire that, as it flowed near with cacK-
ling and roaring noises, ate away the
ground beneath the Princes feet. Down
fell the solid earth, and the river OF
fire had left only one tall pinnacle of
rock for the Prince to stand upon. The
flames Tapped the sides of the rock,
roaring and throwing up great sheets
of sparks like fiery spray. Fumes of
sulphur and thick smoke nearly stifled
the Prince.
The Prince was nearly blinded by the

Although Cinderella had been so kind
10 her Stepsisters, they in return for
her kindness continued to plot against
her; and after a time the younger sis
ter thought to steal away the love of
the Prince, out of jealousy of Cinder-
elias high position. While the step
sisters had been married to wealthy
men they were still subject to Cinder-
ella and had to obey her. This made
them angry, and their mother persuad-
ed them to visit the cavern Of Black
Arts to talk with the Gray Sorcerer.
There they learned that Cinderella's
godmotLer had gone on a journey to
a far country and that, il they could
contrive to break Cinderella's glass
slippers. the godmother's magic would
cease until she could return. In the
meantime Cinderella might lose the
Princes love and he might marry the
younger sister, whose husband had
been drowned while fording a river.
The bad sisters found Cinderella s
glass slippers in casket and cruelty
ground them into atoms while Cinder-
ella slept Cinderella and the Prince
were awakened, the next morning, by
the sound of laughter in the palace gar
dens Cinderella ran to the window and
saw that which had caused the people
TO laugh.
Six mice We're trotting up and down
the garden walks. drawing a pumpkin,
and d Mack rat ssrt upon the pumpkin
acting as driver. Upon the pumpkin
were six lizards The mice stopped at
the palace door and the black rat
knocked twelve times and callsd
aloud:
cinderella, kitchen wench come to
us as we found you, in rags and in
Ndirt! The time is ended when you can
4nger delude the Good Prince by black
magic. Here, lass, ride with us back
TO your chimney corner amid the SCOT
and ashes
You all remember that when Gin
derella went to the ball given by the
Prince she remained until the clock
struck II. The black rat struck twelve
times on the door of the palace now to
make. Cinderella remember that time.
The Prince, hearing the voice, seized
his sword and was about to seek the
intruder who had dared to so speak to
the gentle Princess Cinderella, but he
looked back and saw that when the rat
had ceased to knock Cinderella's silken
garments had turned to rags; her face
was soiled and blackened with SCOT; on
her feet We're coarse shoes. Tears ran
down her cheeks and streaked the SCOT,
and her grimy hands, rubbed upon her
face, made her look so unlike the Prin-
cess and so Ike a scullion that the
Prince could hardly believe it was his
dear Cinderella.
Half blinded by her tears Cinderella
went to the casket where her glass slip
pers had been piaced-her most pre-
ciOus trea sures-and there, when she
found them ruined, her heart beat
heavily and she sobbed aloud. for some
thing told her her days of glory and
happiness were ended unless her fairy
godmother would come to her aid She
spoke aloud:
"Godmother, dear godmother. come
quickly, If you can"
But there was no answer.
The Prince left the palace that Gin
derella should not feel hurt by seeing
his eyes gazing at her while she was in
this sad plight. But now, when he had
gone, the wicked Gray Sorcerer entered
the palace, but looking so much like

garden; hand in hand they entered the
palace. One growl broke in upon their
loving words. They looked at each
