THE VAIN LITTLE
PRINCESS PEACOCK.

Princess Curlylocks was said to be
the vainest child in Is kingdoms. She
had had 10 fairy godmotbcrs, and the
gift which the thirteenth bestowed upon
her at her christening was superior

sighed and hoped that the unlucky 10
was for the best, but in their heart of
hearts nearly all the court people wish

had her way. nothing would have been
held at court but admiration parties OF
which. OF course, the princess would be
the center. The lords and ladies and the
knights and the sturdy yeomen OF the
guard and the court servants down to
the smallest page grew dreadfuly tired
Of her vanity. One saucy page got into
great deal OF trouble by calling her
one day right to her face little Princess

They mightn't look bad with that new
pink silk and silver frock just sent

FUR caps and hunting shirts stole for

they had established a line entirely
across the field OF battle between the
enemy and the surviving Britons. With
these invincibies Colonel Washington
saved about half of Braddock's army.

The rush for Klondike has already
begun and one authority estimates that
200, 900 people will go to the gold fields
this season. There is now no doubt but
that the fabulous wealth Of the country
has not been underestimated and the
widest speculations as to its resources
are surpassed by the facts. The BufYa-

already ticketed one large party and
others are organizing at various points
