The Magic Coin.

- Get n round. wooden or pasteboaru Do4 about one inch in depth and line the inside or it with red paper, pasting 1t In neatly ana smoothly. The box should be of just the right internal diameter to allow q coin to fit snugiy in it-say, penny, nickel nye-s cent piece or quarter dollar.
 Now paste over one side of the coin some of the paper with which you line the box, so that when the coin lies in the bottom of the box 1t will look like the bottom itself.
 This prepared coin you keep concealed in your hand having been made ready without the knowledge of thescompany.
 Now let us assume that it is penny ysu are going to make use of. Keeping tbe pre- pared cue carefully concealed in your hand, borrow a penny from someone in the com pany, and then dexterousiy substituting the prepared one for the borrowed one, put 1t into the box, asking the company to look at you as you do 1t.
 Then pat the lid on the box and shake up and down, when the movement of the penny in the box will prove that 1t is there. Stop shaking the box and command the penny to leave, making a pass or two over the box with your hand. Now shake the box from side to side, and as the penny nts closely 1t will not move, and there will not, therefore, be any sound
 Tell the company that the penny has left the box and may be found in certain book on the table or in any one of the places where you have hidden them in preparing for the trick. While someone. is looking for the penny you slip the prepared one out of the box and into your pocket, and when the box is handed around for examination 1t is found empty.

The Princess CaLerina and the Dwarfs.
BY ANNA LowE GLEN.

 Below were set tables of rock, laden with tankards of gold silver and copper. About them feasted the dwarfs. hideous in merri- ment, eating and drinking thelr i'll. Pass ing among them Oswald saw maiden, ex- ceedingly fair, but pale and weary. She hela a tray piled with luscious. strange fruits. oswald knew her to be the Lady Matilda, stolen in the days of old. Beside her the Princess Cateriua brewed the beer and filled the fiagons.
 Softly Oswald slipped to Caterina's side. and Into every fiagon she filled he squeezed the juice of the magic berries.
 No sooner had the dNnrfs drunk of this beer than they nodded. slept and fell a-snor- ing. Then Oswald. grasplng by each hand maid. fled up the stair out into the world of sunshine.
 Tn fine palace the King and court rejolced from the crescent to the full moon on the return of the Princesses. There was no no- bic of the land set above Oswald, who had been but page. The King threw about his neck his own gold chain and gave him the lordliest castle of that country.
 Tn time His Majesty gave the Princess Matilda in marriage to a Kings son of neighboring realm but the hand of his beau tifu daughter Caterina he bestowed upon Sir Oswald, whom all men called the bravest and most courteous gentleman of the court. And when at last the king died, full Of years, Caterina md Oswald regned In his stead. They ruled wisely and lived happily all their days.

did not originate with Fahnestock himself, for, as ''Frenchy" said, who did not like the boy, Fuhnestock never said nutttn'.' As time passed Shorty's curiosity concerning his roommate grew keener. but there seemed little likelihood of its being satisfied. The other boys spoke of their families of their plans for vacation time and of the visits they were to make each other at Christmas, but Fahnestock might have had no family for all the mention he made of them; that is, until certnin evening, when, most un- expectedly, he took Shorty into his confi- dence.

All day the Princess Caterina spun and spun. All day the hum of the wheel filled the tower room. The tapestries rustled in the breeze, the cat on the hearth stretched and purred, but still the Princess twirled her spindle.
 May It please Your Hlghness to listen to q tale of a time long gone?" said the old nurse at last. Her face was a network of wrinkles and her eyes keen with the wisdom of many winters
 The Princess laid down her dlstan.
 .Once there lived of your royal house, my lady" began the nurse "a princess called Matilda. Her hair was golden, like yours, and her eyes, too, as blue as the corn flower. She WIS pleased neither with hunting, hawking nor the dance, but sat all day at the spinning wheel So con stautly did she spin that the whir of the wheel became sweeter to her ears than the sound of the lute. One day the princess said to her nurse, who was the mother of my grandmother sHarki Hear you noth- ing but the humming of the wheelY
 "And the nurse replied, I hear noth- ing
 :" Attend again. cried the lady. You hear no song of little voices like the wind in the treetops?-and still the nurse heard nothing.
 "Up rose the Princess, saying, I go to pluck roses in the garden. Let none fol- low
 "she never returned, Your Highness. One hundred fighting men of the kingdom on swift chargers and one hundred keen nosed hounds sought her in vain. The king, her royal father, went afoot through the city streets, crying, Have ye seen my daughter?'
 "Some said she was stolen, some foully done to death by an enemy, but the mother of my grandmother was a wise woman.
 'Hark ye, said she. when you hear the soughing song of the trees in the voice or the spinning wheel it bodes no good. It Is magic spell. She hath been entrapped by the spirits of the trees.
 Spin no more, Your Royal Highness. All ready is the music of the wheel too sweet. But should you spin and should you hear the mocking song, run from the wheel, my lady; fly to the dance, or to horse, or to any childish game. Remember my counsel thnt you may one day rule this fair land.'
 So the nurse ended her tale, and the prin- cess, head in hand, unused until the shadows fell.
 Next morning Caterina stood by her cham Der window She saw the page oswald on the turf below, with her fayorite hounds in leash. She smiled and threw him little

flower from her gfrdle.
 As she turned she brushed her spinning wheel. It revolved under her hand and she slipped almost unaware into the seat. Hum, hum, hum, murmured the wheel. Mingled with the purring of the spinning are voices many and full of harplike sound. What are the words they are callingl
 Hum, hum, hum
 Come, come, come!
 Little elin folk
 Wait you at the oak.
 Come, come, come!"
 Still she spun. Still the voices repeated:-
 "Hum, hum, hum!
 Come, come come
 Treasures we will show,
 Wonders you shall know.
 Come, come, comet!
 Then Caterina arose from the wheel, slipped past the nurse, who dozed in her chair, and went across the gardens to the forest. Down an aisle of great trees she passed until she came to a giant oak. From its spreading roots little brown forms arose, little hands placked at her skirts. On every side crowd of mlssha pen dwarfs pressed about her. They struck the trunk of the tree, singing
 "open, door of our treasurs store.
 In our power from this hour
 Is the maiden evermore!' Immediately door in the tree opened and the elves pushed .caterina inside, chanting gleefuily;
 Close the door of our treasure store
 With bitter tears for endless years
 Shall she serve forevermorei'' In the meantime Caterina's flight from the palace was discovered. The kingdom was secured on fast horses, but no trace of the Princess was found. The King was pros trated with grief
 After week of fruitless search the nurse sent for Oswald, the page and told him the story of the magic song
 ''Alasr sue cried there is said to be but one charm which car undo the spell, and the secret of 1t fear no one has.' What indeed. Is that charmf~ asked Os- wald. for he was wiling to climb the skies and fetch down a star for the recovery or the Princess.

 Then oswald drew from his doublet the little flower Caterina had tossed him. The nurse bade him walk in the forest and see what might happen.
 Through a dark grove of oaks Oswald wandered. As the afternoon wore on he heard a bird song which, to his great won der. he could understand. Look at the flower she broke from her bower," caroMed the bird.
 Oswald gazed intently upon the petals of the flower, where he found written these words, which he repeated aloud: Open, door, yet once more,

TO WIN YOUR DOG.

Treat your little doggie kindly,
 Never give him cuffs or kicks. Never shout at him or scold him When you try to teach him tricks. Do not chain hlm in the stable,
 In the yard or in the hall: If you use such cruel measures
 He'll not care for you at all. Let him stay within your dwelling, Let him sleep beside the stove, Feed him from your hand and pet him Then you'll surely win his love. Never spurn his true affection,
 But regard him as a friend, Then'll he'll give you his protection And be faithful to the end.
