TALES OF YANKEE ENCHANTMENT.

some little boy clad in what looked
like an autumn sunset had not
stretched out his hand and caught him
Tod would have had a bad fall
Here, drink this and youth be able
TO walk without sinking said the lit
tie stranger. He handed a golden cup
to Tod as he spoke, and that boy was
only too glad to drink, for he was
thirsty after his 3OO-mile flight. The
liquid tasted like all the kinds of soda
water you ever heard of, poured into
one glass and favored with essence of
orange flower. AS soon as Tod had
drunk it he felt as light as a feather
and walked on the cloud as if it had
been terra frma, which, my grand
father told me, is Latin for solid
ground. Ask your teacher whether the
old gentleman was right.
w mats the name of this place, and
how far is it to earth, and what's your
name. and what do you do up here,
and where can get such a pretty
suit? 1t looks like the view from our
veranda when the sun is going down
L can tell you're from the earth by
the questions you ask" said the other
boy, laughing. He was such a pretty
fellow. Very much like the cupids on
valentines
We'll, I'd never learn anything if I
didn't ask questions. Where do you
live and why don't you fall through?''
I'm the Child Of the sunset; but, say,
you haven't learned anything so far by
asking questions, for you don't wait
for the answers. You only ask 70
keep your tongue from getting lazy"
Tod laughed and said: Il bet 1 can
beat you running"
Il guess not" said the sunset boy,
and with that both of them began to
run as hard as they could, but al
though TOd's feet hardly touched the
ground, so easily did he move through
cloudland, yet the other boy moved
twice as fast and soon vanished be-
hind a high wall that surrounded a

huge castle that looked like those cloud
palaces that rear themselves on June
days when you are lying on your back
out in the fields and wishing that the
long vacation would begin.
1t was snowy white and had towers
and minarets and the wall of salmon
pink that surrounded it changed its
shape continually.
While Tod was wondering what castle
it was and whether any giants lived
within it a tall warrior. who looked
exactly as if he was fashioned out of a
silver cloud with little f1aShss of opal
escent fire running through him, came
to an opening in the wall and said:
What is your name, Earth Boy, and
why have you come to the storehouse
of the holidays?"
Before Tod could answer his friend,
the Sunset Boy, popped out from be-
hind the wall and said: Hes all right.
He can run half as fast as 1 can
The warrior seemed astonished.
why, that is impossible. No one in
Cloudland can run a quarter as fast
as YOU
We'll, he did. leave it to him if he
didn't. And he's hungry and he wants
to know everything. And say'-thfs in
q lower tone-"can't you give him seven
or eight holidays? We have such
lott
But" said the warrior, who all this
time had been changing his shape like
an April cloud and was by turns a Polar
bear, Hubbard squash, a hoppopota-
mus. load of hay and an apple tree,
there are just so many holidays. If I
let him have some the earth folk will
have to do without them"
Tod how spoke up: Say, my father
says he wishes there were no such
things as holidays. He's so used to
working that he never knows what to
do on a holiday, and he gets awful
cross, and he's always glad when night
comes. Last Christmas he said he
wishes Christmas had never been dis
covered"
WELL" said the warrior, who now

It would have been easy to discover
good qualities in Tod Pendleton. He
was kind hearted and brave and good
humored, but he was also greedy. AS
an Illustration of this latter quality
let me tell an incident connected with
his boyhoOd. My grandfather told me.
Years ago there was a kind of candy
known as the, jackson ball." 1t was

THE BEEKEEpER.

Dry and warm Is the rule in keeping
honey IL you want to retain its flavor,
richness and color.
Beeswax Is usually dark because OF
the impurities mixed with Il, such as
particles Of pollen, coeoous or propolis.
II honey is kept In damp place. It
will absorb moisture and soon become
thin and watery and lose its rich favor.
When the hives are troubled with
ants, little pine tar smeared on a board
placed near the hives will keep them
away.
The use of comb Foundation not only
saves great deal Of labor and time TO
the bees, but 1t also secures straight
combs in the frames.
During the winter IS good time to
study up on bPes. Read good books on
bee management. Much may be learned
from the experience OF others.
We can safely examine bees during the
winter If we select a day that is warm
and the bees flying, but not otherwise.

FRANCIS MARION CRAWFORD

Maurice F. Egan considers Francis Marion Crawford in No K. of his de- lightful "Cameos" in the Ave Maria. We quote a portion of the sketch:
 "When 'Saracenesca' appeared in Blackwood's Magazine MT Crawford' s position was fixed. 'Saracenesca' was a master-book. He knew and loved his characters and the world in which they moved; Corona and the Princes Saracenesca became as real as Adam Bede or Di Vernon. And then fol lowed the Saracenesca series, tapering in power and interest-for MT Craw- ford had become his own rival-but all of value.
 Enough has been said of the Car melite in Casa Braccio.' as well as or the eccentric ecclesiastical proceedings in sTarquisara' Mir Crawford gave manly explanations, and circumstan- ces have made us sensitive. We ought to be very Kind to him; there are few like him. and we owe him much. There are not many writers whom we can trust SO implicitly for the eternal verities as MT Crawford. He has not gone out of his way to preach: he has clung c}aAN to his mission of story telling. e. scept in A Rose of Yester- day. with Is title from Omar Khay- yam, and it's ethics so unlike those of Omar D
 ..And one of the pleasant things Is the fact that Mir Crawford's strength and his hold on the public increase as
Waterbury Democrat., 1900-11-07

he grows older. He is not writing himself out as so many amiable per sons have, from time to time, said he would. There are traces ill some of his books that he had a glimmering of this fear himself. But he likes to tell a story so we'll that, so long as he has a story to tell, he will tell 1t effective ly. Besides, he has great resources of experience. The man who could give Us the most convincing picture of Ger man contemporary life yet done in English fiction, as he did in 'Griefen- stein,' and yet produce that most eX- quisite of Italian idyls, A Roman Sing err need have no rear of writing himself out MT Crawford is always the exponent of a manly faith, which runs like a thread of gold through all his varied tapestry.
 "Of all MT Crawfords books, with the Immortals,' seems to me to be the most satisfactory. For wit, wisdom, insight into the past, and the manifes- tation of beautiful expression, it stands among the great volumes of the last fifty years. In one of the conver- Sations between Caesar and Leonardo da Vinci, he makes the artist say: I 1 think it is part of the temperament of some artists not to finish, though the work forever. They search after that which never was or never can
 be; or. at all events. we searched in our day. l think it was better. We pursued the ideal: modern painters
 pursue the real. I was not a realist
 because l painted grinning peasants
 for a study. and modelled heads of laughing women for my pleasure
 This search for the ideal-though
 MT Crawford does not write about 1t as I if it were his sole vocation-will keep
 him always young in his art. It saved 1 Corona and Eleanor from the pit into
 which the realist would have plunged
 them, and it is the keynote of MT l Crawford's best success"
