ROBIN REDBREAsT.

How the Little Drown Dwarfs Re
Paid ellen For Her Kindness.
In small house by the roadside
lived woodcutter. his daughter Ellen
and his son Thomas. The father and
son went out every day and cut wood,
while little Ellen was at home doing
the housework and knitting stockings
to sell In the village. one day when 1t
was showing Ellen made roupd circle
on the pane OF glass 20 look out. When
she looked out, she saw robin search
ing for food. and 1t was almost frozen
20 death. She took II In and warmed
and fed IT, That night when the wood
cutters came home she told them, and
Thomas said, 1T will be quite feast"
But Ellen said. "Oh, no." Then her ia
Their said she could keep IL. After sup
per she washed the dishes and went TO
bed early. for she had to cook break
fast.
Next morning when Ellen came down
the fire was burning, porridge cooking
and everything done, and Ellen was
surprised When the rest of the family
came down, she did not tell them, and
when they had gone she went TO make
the beds When she got there, they
were already made. She came down to
wash dishes, and when she got there
they were finished. she was surprised
and il went on the same all day.
That night Ellen thought she would
watch She peeked through the kitch-
en- door and saw a dwarf dressed In
brown trousers and a red coat. She did
not tell anybody. Ii went on every
day, and one day the robin sat on the
window sill and chirped as II II wanted
to get out, for the sun was shining.
Ellen let him fly.
One day Ellen went 10 sell the stock
lngs she knitted In the village. she
came home at night, her pennies in her
pocket tlnkllng as she sang 10 the vel
low moon. AS she came to the side OF
the hill 1t opened like a door. Inside
was like a room, in which were many
dwarfs like the one which worked for
her all winter. One said, There Is
human being watching u.s." They all
looked and suddenly rushed toward Ell
len and said, did you come to steal
our treasurer" She said, "Oh, no."
The robin that she fed all winter
rushed through the crowd and said
ooh, that is Ellen, who fed me all win
ter. Come, let US All her basket with
our treasure" They all ran and filled
the basket with their treasure.
She thanked them and walked home,
her basket becoming heavier and heav.
Ter She knocked nj her door and her
father came to the door and taking
the basket, thought it very heavy. He
asked from whom she received The
treasure He and Thomas were very
glad and happy ever after Ellen never
had 20 work so hard, and Thomas and
her father never had TO cut wood

The OUTLOOK.

The Various matters of
Convention. minor Importance have
been brought before the Constitution
al Convention at Hartford and the end
is not yet in sight. Among the events
OF last week was the introduction of a
demand from the republican town
committee of New Haven, in which
they practically ordered the conven-
ton to abandon the plan of one repre-
sentative from each town and Senate
of sixty members based on population.
The gentlemen who sent in that petit
tion or demand seem to forget that
the convention is making a constitu-
tion not only for New Haven but also
for the rest Of the state of Connecticut.

get is that we are living in free Ameri-
ca and that to attempt to bully any

ent farmer from that town and one
who has been able and efficient in the
state in the work of the Grange. AS
