The fairy, who had come to aston.

she prepared to light Aladdin's lamp

When Dolly's papa asked her one
day what was worse than a giraffe with

serious thought the youngster replied
warily that sac did not "kerzactly

That the humor sank deep into the

n week later. Taken to the Natural
History Museum. Dolly stood In awod

while her elder read aloud the descrip.

Upon hearing that an ostrich pos.

One of the wholesale fruit dealers
oi New York city remarked recently
this the biggest increase In his trade
this year was owing to III" public de.

Not so many years ago II was impos,

An occasional epicurc insisted upon
having one for breakfast during the
season, but II was waste of money
to keep them in small markets; II was
necessary, when wanted, to order be-
forehand from ones grocer.

not like walking.
Just as you please; though don't
know what railroad IT," answered
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
IL was the traditional dragon serpent
which she saw rising from the bowels
of the earth, and before the genie was
able to stop her she raised ner wand
and pronounced the formula which
renders beings and things motionless.

there was a horrible catastrophe, the

Now. the results OF this distributivo

they had expected. At the first farm
house, which they entered they were
treated so kindly that they considered
themselves bound TO show proper graf

while the farmer and his family were
still asleep, they placed on the table
in the dining room a bag flied with
gold and went their way.
