Then, dismounting, he took a white
leaf off the white stone. and, regard
less of the ieers and laughter OF the
Black Prince and his knights, went to
the stone eye and looked at the leaf
through it. AS he looked his face grew
sad and great pity shone in his eyes,
but when he turned from looking his
face and eyes were abIaze with indigna-
tioa.

ond time and rode on. And each knight
rode w and bowed low TO Prince Noble
and said: Homage to the brave
knight" and thus having Knocked him,
rode after the Black Prince
Prince Noble stood silent and resolute
answering not a word to all the taunts,
but when the last knight had gone he
said sadly: These be brave men, but
cruel and without tenderness. God grant
that kindness may yet grow in their
hearts. Alas, my father! 1 may never see
thee more!" Then he knelt and prayed
and when he stood up there was peace
on his face.
Il am ready" be said. and again he
looked through the stone eye, and once
again the marvellous vision Of the leaf
appeared and he saw in the corner of 4
dark and noisome dungeon an old white
haired woman lying on bed of straw.
and he face of the woman was wrinkled
and haggard with age and pain. Even as
he looked the woman sat uD and fixed
her eyes impioringly on his face, and he
saw that great chains bound her to the
floor of the dungeon Then a great whirl-
ing black smoke rolled before his eyes.
and on the black smoke, in letters OF
fire shone these words:
PLUCK a black leaf from the great
tree, and when the moonlight falls Oh
TOP of the marble shaft look at the
black leaf through the stone eye, but
know that he who plucketh a black leaf
must follow the venture to the end, or

King"
Then the vision vanished from the leaf.

A Cork and a Bottle.

Get an empty wine bottle and cork
that is, say, two sizes too small for it.
so that If put in in the ordinary way it
will fall clear down into the bottle.
Lay the bottle on its side and put the
cork just within its mouth Now ask the
spectators, one at a time. to try TO force
the cork into the bottle by blowing on it.
1t will amuse you to see the conf
dence with which the first person sets
about the little task. He will step up
with an air that says, why don't you
ask me something hard?" Then he will
stoop and blow his breath on the cork
in a sharp squirt expecting, OF course, to
make 1t disappear Immediately
But the obstinate cork, as if reversing
the regular order of things, will come
flying out Of the bottle instead Of disap-
pearing in 1t.
The second person will approach the
task with confidence, too, thinking that
the first didn't go about it in the right
way eXactly-that he blew either TOO
hard or too soft. But the cork is still
obstinate. and out II comes again in
stead of going in.
So it Will be with them all. unless
some one in the company knows the
secret. and when you take a little quill
or tube out of your pocket and blow
through it right against the center of the
cork. thereby driving it in at once, there
will be a good laugh.
But still they will not understand,
perhaps, why their blowing on it did not
drive IT in. The reason is that some Of
the air goes around the cork into the
/ bottle, which has the effect of compress
ing the air already there, and the cork
goes a little way in; but the compress
sion ceases almost instantly. and is fol-
lowed by an expansion, which forces the
cork out.

little difficulty is as follows How can
you place three-fourths of a dozen

together in one pile and six matches in
another pile you have, very obviously.
