Charles Battell Looris, whose Yankee
Entertainments made such a hit in the

issued in book form by Mcclure, Phillips
& Co, tells an amusing story connected
with his school life. According to Mr.
LoomiS, although we rather doubt it. he
was not a good schoictr, and his reports
did not fill his parents with joy. They
wondered why he did not make a better
showing, as he was not a dull boy. The
answer was at lest forthcoming in a note
from the principal of the school, who
wrote: Win you please see to IL that
Charles reads less fairy stories and puts
in more time On his home studies. His
fairy stories VIII be the ruination of
him" That the principal was not good
prophet is shown by the fact that Mr.
LOOMS fairy stories ran for nea. iy fifty
weeks in the New York Sun. But Mr.
LOOMS says that if he had applied him
self with more zeal TO his studies his
fairy stories might have run a hundred
weekS in the Sun.
