The word Moro. as applied to the

existence OF several of them with this
name. The word is one little rsed by
Cubans. Its use on the island IS con
fined almost exclusively 10 the Span

fined as anything that is round" or "a
prominent overhanging lip" The Span
iards always describe a negro mouth az

word is also applied to a cat. hut in this
sense it is taken TO refer to the purring
OF the animal! a the New York Sun.
When appliedtothe castles or fortresses
in Cuba the word is to be taken in the
same Significance it possesses when ap-
piled to a negroes mouth. These de-
lenses are usually perched on heights.

truding lips do. The word is always
spelled with two IRIS. The word moro
is said to mean moorish. belonging TO

piled to wine not mixed with water. 1t
also means as a noun a Moor or native

walking out of the beautiful rooms
where she had been living into the
street.
To prevent anybody stealing her
beautiful dresses, and I am sorry to
say that there are bad, wicked,
naughty dolls who steal other dolls
gloves and handkerchiefs and who tell
fihs, and do other awful things, Santa
Claus packed all her dresses, bonnets,
gloves, shoes, stockings, parasols,
fans, umbrellas, bibs, aprons, water
proofs, handkerchiefs and bracelets
into doll trunk. He put this on his
shoulder and off they went. The
street was very crowded, but it didn' t
make any difference. Sometimes
they walked through the people,
sometimes the people walked through
them and sometimes they walk ed

of them had been quite naughty. The
mother said she hoped that Santa
Claus, who was very kind man, would
forgive her. The little girl looked re-
lieved and said, eff Santa Claus will
forgive me. I'll never break another
doll again!" and from the folds of her
little dress she pulled out the rem
nants of doll which had lost one
hand, one foot, its nose and half an
ear.
The Princess grew very indignant
at the sight, and said: eff you please,
Santa Claus, I don't like such people.
Let US go somewhere else." Santa
Claus nodded silently, and again they
loated through the walls, out into the
street, and into other homes. It
wasn't until the hundredth call that
the Princess noticed something. 1t
was this, that whenever the children
wished for something very much and
their mothers and fathers smiled,
Santa Claus nodded and took some
thing out of a pocket and dropped it
in closet. This something was like
little cloud of smoke, such as comes
when you strike match, but it grew
and grew and became hard and took
the form of inst what the children had
been talking about.
But the Princess was getting very
tired. They stopped finally in little
room where there was big bed and
little crib. There was a sweet-faced
woman putting little girl to bed. The
child said her prayers, then lay down
and closed her eyes. She opened
them again and said softly: mamma,
do you think Santa Claus will bring
me doll? don't want o big one,
just wee little one," and the mother,
who was dressed all in black, said: ttI
hope so. darling" Then silence came
upon the room. The clocks tolled mid
night and the mother fell asleep. The
Princess turned to her guide and said:
''Santa Claus, if you please, I think
I'll stay here" Santa Claus nodded,
but said not word. Then the Prin-
cess climbed into the crib, although
she had on her ballroom dress, her
bracelets, her fan and her gloves. She
got under the bedclothes and put her
head upon the child's arm and her arm
around the child's neck. Then she
closed her eyes and fell sound asleep.
And she was still sound asleep in
the morning when the child awoke and
| found the Princess in her arms.

with their backs against the wall they
had put all their dolls. You see,
they thought that when Santa Claus
came he'd see all the dolls and would
give each one a little present. They
talked about it, too. The Princess
could hear them and see them, but
they couldn't see the Princess or
Santa Claus. She looked up at her
companion and said, care you going
to give the dolls present, too?" and
Santa Claus laughed little bit,
turned red as if he were blushing, and
said, eyes, I guess I'll have to. They
are good little girls. Wouldn't you
like to stay here with them?"
The Princess thought for moment
and answered, "No, I thank you,
Santa Claus. There are so many dolls
here their talking would prevent my
thinking"
Santa Claus laughed again, and the
next moment they hoated through the
wall, through many walls and stopped
in another nursery. Here there were
two little girls and their mother. One

through each other. At one place in
the street she walked right through
the heart Of very pretty shop girl
who had charge of rag dolls, and there
she saw beautiful pictures and statues
and jewelry and bands Of music play
ing and fountains leaping and flowers
waving and apples and pears hanging
from the bows Of the trees. They
were not exactly real things she saw !;
they were magical things, which are
sometimes more real than real
things.
At another place on the str let
whom should they walk through but a
cross old maid, who had charge Of the
rubber dolls in Dollytown, and again
the Princess said "Oh," because in
the old maids heart there were
gloomy woods and caves, frogs, green
snakes, and horned lizards and bats,
and owls that shrieked, "tu-whit, tn.
whoo!" The Princess was very glad
to get out on the other side, and then
she knew why she had always loved
the young girl and always hated the
cross old maid. By and by they
came to q house with big doors, and a
waiter at the door who let people in
and out, but they didn't mind him in
| the least. They did not even wait
for the door to open. They went
through the door and through the
waiter, and fcated up stairs into the
nursery, where there were three OF
four children getting ready to go to
bed. They were all little girls, and
they had hung their stockings upon
the .mantelpiece, and upon the floor

can do this, she is royal doll and not
a common doll. She had a marvellous
complexion, and the more you washed
it the brighter it grew. The Princess
Angelina had a beautiful wardrobe.
She had a ball dress, dinner dress,
slumber gown, bicycle suit, golf
toilet, a rainy day costume, bib and
tucker to make believe she was baby,
and four other common frocks, and
her commonest suit was better than
the best dresses of great many dolls.
Now, Dollytown is in the middle Of
New York. Itdoesn't begin anywhere,
and doesn't end anywhere. The Prin-
cess Angelina was magical doll.
When person came to buy her whom
she didn't like she sauinted with one
eye and made the other turn green, so
that she looked 50 ugly people put her
down right away. Another time when
some one wanted to buy her whom she
didn't like, she took hat pin out and
stuck it in the woman's thumb and the
woman got mad and went off and
didn't buy any doll at all. This is
why all the other dolls got sold in
Dollytown the day before Christmas
and why the Princess Angelina was
not sold. It got around to evening
and the Princess said, IT wonder
where I'll CO." Then she gave a
scream because right in front of her,
looking like a dear old grandfather,
was Santa Claus himself. He bowed
very nicely, because Santa Claus is
very polite gentleman, and said;
"Gooi evening, Princess; I called to
see if your Highness would like to
take walk"
The Princess smiled and said,
