came walking up and rubbed its head
against her cheek.
Eithne caught this little black sleeps

said: Little Black Sheep, what do you

Black Sheep, land take out what you

Eithne fell to and made a very hearty

When she had finished the Black Sheep

where she had got ii. She rolled it, up
into a very small bulk again, and put it
into the Sleeps left ear, and the sheep
went away and took its place in the flock
and began to greze a ain, and Eithne was
very, very happy.
When she came home her mother and
her stepsisters asked her how did she like

she liked it very well indeed, and they
were disappointed.

drops were my favorites, and / think
could have eaten a pound of them any
day.
Among the children were boys who
made up faces and spat at me and tried
to pick a quarrel but after awhile l
got used 10 them and didn't lose my
temper. One day the red-headed boy
whom the monkey had told me about,
came around and threw me four or five
gum drops. This made me rather like
him. but when he had passed on the
monkey said to me:
Now, Uncle Bob you look out for
that red-headed boy. He had a grin on
his face when he was throwing you
the sweets, and I'm sure he means to
come back and pay you some trick"
Are red-headed boys worse than any
other kind?" l asked.
They seem to be, though I suppose
some of them are all right. I've been
here nearly five years, and most OF my
troubles have come from red-headed boys.
It was only week before you landed
that one of them tried to poke my eyes

In about half an hour the red-headed
boy came back. looked at him sharply.

in his head. He smiled at me and gave
me a wink, and when / winked back he

them and began chewing, but all OF a

The boy had filed one of the drops with
pepper, and my mouth burned TIL the
tears ran down my cheeks and stood

the Hen-wife advised them, since they
would not kill her, to kill her friend, the
Black Sheep, and burn its bones.
On the next day when the Black Sheep
had come to her, and she had eaten a
hearty meal and put back the napkin
again, the Black Sheep told Eithne what
had happened, and that it was going to
be killed, and that the Hen-wife had or
dered his bones to be burned. But I
want YOU" it said to Eithne, ito gather
up all my bones before they get chance
of burning them and throw them down
the well in your garden"
Poor Eithne was very sorry when she
heard the Back Sheep was going to be
killed. She promised that she would do
what the Black Sheep wanted, and then
she sat upon the hill crying bitterly
all the remainder of the evening.
That night her step-mother had the
Black Sheep brought home from the hin
and had it killed, and ordered the bones
to be burned
But from the man who brought the
bones to the fire. Eithne begged them.
He gave them to her and she carried
them to the garden AS she was throw
ing them into the well, a dog snapped
at one of them and ran off with it
Then her step-mother put her into the
kitchen again to work with the dirty pots
and pans, and kept her there a long
time, letting her see nobody and letting
nobody see her, until the princes who

magpie to spy upon Eithne and find out
What mad happened TO their eldest sister.
BUT 10! on that day, when Eithne was
taxing the napkin out of the Black Sleeps
ear the little sheep asked her to look In
MS right ear and take out what she would
ma. And from his right ear she took out
a rod.
The Black Sheep said: when you are
eating your dinner a magpie will alight
beside you. You must strike it with that
rod.
And, sure enough, when Eithne was
eating her dinner. beside her there lit
magpie. and she raised the rod and struck
it, and IL turned it into a stone.
And that night when she went home,
she found only one step-sister there wi
her step-mother, and both of them were
in deep wrath with her.
They called in the Hen-wife, and 1t was
next day in the shape of a crow. But
the Hen-wife warned the crow to fly over
Eithne's head and watch all that would
happen, but not to alight.
When, at midday, Eithne was taking
from the Little Sleeps ear the napkin,
it told her to take the white rod from its
right ear and strike the crow that would
alight beside her.
She took the white rod, and when she
was eating her dinner, she saw the
crow flying around and around, above
her head, but the crow never alighted,
and she folded up the napkin after she
had finished and put it into the Sheep
left ear, and put the little white rod into
its right ear and the Sheep went away.
Before she returned home that night
the crow was home before her. and very
black were the looks that her step
mother and step-sister greeted her with

Then, to make Eithne ugly also. her
mother half starved her. made her sleep

slited, and they said they would S nd

Now the King of Ireland had a son
who had come Of age to marry. and his
father announced three great balls to
be given at the caste, and TO those balls
were invited all the beautiful young
women Of the kingdom, that the young
Prince might choose a wife for himself
amongst them all.
For these balls, as you may well sup
pose. there were wonder ful preparations
made by all the young ladies of the king
dom who thought they were handsome,
and their mothers For months and
months before nothing IVES done but
making and fttirg dresses, and sewing
on TO them gold and silver and jeweled
ornaments.
Eithne's step-sisters and step-mother
were not idle now. For all those months
their house was turned upside down In
the prepar tons they were making for
captivating the young Prince, and each
one of her sisters thought that she would
surely win him. They had to call in
Eithne to help them, for much as they
hated her, they knew well that her good
taste in dress far surpassed theirs.
And even when Eithne was helping
them with these lovely dresses. they
would pity her and say: pity. poor
Eithne. that you can have no chance
