Just as you please; though ! don't

the fairy.
They reached the nearest railroad
station. A train was announced, but
when the locomotive appeared at the
mouth of the tunnel, putting forth
smoke and fire from its long neck, the
fairy became frightened, fancying that
1t was the traditional dragon serpent
which she saw rising from the bowels
Of the earth. and before the rshie was
able to stop her she raised ner wand
and pronounced the formula which
renders beings and things mu1onless
The locomotive stopped al once and

She was unquestionably the last of
the Iairies; all the others had disap
pcared one by one-for fairies rass
away just as field marshals do, and
now no new ones are created. The
old fairies, then, had persisted in The
course of time, one having been killed
in a quarrel with rival; another hav-
ing come to a sad end through love of
a mortal. and various others having
been slain by progress; So one by one,
the old fairies had all vanished and
the few survivors divided their prop
erty Among them.
The last of the fairies lived in the
heart of a Thuringian forest. THE
densest forests are usually to be found
in Thuringia.J From time to time she
was visited by dwarf. who told her
OF the death of one of her sisters and
brought her her share Of the property
which had belonged to tne deceased:
as result. talismans, magic wands.
enchanted boxes, and all the other nee.
essary accessories of her profession
were heaped in piles along the entire
length OF her cave.
At last a deputation of elfs called
and informed her that the last of her
coevals had passed away. and then
she knew that she was the last OF the
fairies. As she had never left the
forest. she felt neither proud nor
melancholy at the news that she had
become Queen of Fairyland. After all
she had no one to reign over but her
self, and II It is difficult to obey II Is
still more difficult to command.
Sometimes she visited her only
friend. an old genie. VINO was the guar
dian of the earth's secrets. Then theJ
talked about the things which interest
cd them; for example. about the voca
ton of the supernatural parsonage who
has no future, about the histories Of
celebrated enchanters and about the
best methods OF making a'philter. The
genie had written Complete Genie,
Handbook" which was regarded as al
authoritative work. At sunrise IN,
fairy went back to sleep in her owl
cave. Sometimes the old genie visited
her there and examined her collection
of talismans. which he criticised Or
such occasions they exchanged tails
mans and other things with each other
and for several centuries they carried
on this peaceful method o. Going bus
