in the time and testing his worth on his
first day he was told to write letter de-
manding payment of debt from client
who was long in arrears. To the great
surprise of his employers check for the
amount arrived next day. They sent foI
the young clerk and asked him to pro,

Then they said more things of the same
kind, and finally each began TO enchant
the other just as hard as he could. The
magician knew much more about enchant-
ment than the brownie, and the FIST
thing the brownie knew he was turned
into beautiful, highly polished dining
room table! There he stood right in the
middle of the road, while the magician
walked off with his head up in the air and
said: "Humph. l guess tha tbrownie

Now, when anyone knows anything
about enchantment they cannot be en-
chanted nearly as much as one who knows

not all table, but only part table and
part brownie. So the table could talk
and even move its legs little. OF course,
it was SO nearly a table that its legs were
stiff, and as the brownie was not used to
walking on four legs it could only stalk
along very awkwardly.

that it might as well go somewhere. and
perhaps it could find some one who could

A Tale of the Zoo.

At the zoo there are two bear cubs so
full of fun and frolicsome pranks that
there is always a crowd of delighted lit
tie people about them
Some time ago the larger of these two
cubs formed a habit of chewing the ear
of its smaller companion. No doubt this
was intended as a loving caress, and the
smaller bear did not mind it at all, but
the directors and keepers of the Zoo did.
for before long all the hair was worn
from the much chewed ear. making it's
owner look like a ragged little tramp.
Many plans were tried to stop this mode
of showing affection. but none succeeded
until a keeper hit upon the idea of paint
ing the ear with strong solution of red
pepper and collodion. 1t worked beauti-
fully. for when the larger cub again tried
his novel caress he quickly abandoned the
painted ear. and flew with frantic haste
to the fountain. He drank great gulps
OF water. and after a time cooled his
burning tongue and throat. He lost all
desire to pet his little companion, and
was very sulky for a long time, but now
they are good friend again.
