The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-01-24
BY j. w. MULLER.

1t will always be as true as 1t is now
that a pot of gold is hidden under the
further end of every rainbow.
Many children between five and nine
ty-seven years old have tried to plod
to the end of the rainbow to find the
treasure: but few. if any, ever man
aged to really reach the. place. Some
found pots of gold on the road and re-
manned there all the rest of their lives
digging for more in the same spot; 9th
ers became a-weary of hunting gold
long before they reached the journeys
end, and sat down and played among
the flowers and shrubs by the wayside;
many went to heaven and were happy
ever afterward: and others lost their
way entirely and wandered in deserts.
Maybe some really did reach the end
of the rainbow and there found the
hidden gold but they never returned
to tell the rest. So whoever starts oil
the journey. must do so with no expert
ence to guide him, and it is long and
weary distance.
One day when the gray old man of
the tempest had swept across the sky
and gone grumbling and muttering far
down the valley, until nothing could be
seen of him except a ragged end of his
trailing black coat a particularly WON
derful rainbow SPAWNED the sky over
the pleasant town of Playburg on Sum
ny River. And Robinson Crusoe Pet
tywhistle saw that its further end rest
ed right behind old Story Mountain at
the head of the beautiful valley.
He FASTENED to call his especial

old as soon as we sailed away, and the
farther we sailed the older they grew
This was not according to nature. and
made me afraid. The ship. which in
the harbor of Bassora seemed to be
new and strong, began to show signs
of great age. It's ropes began to UNI
ravel and turn gray, the planks warped
and left great gaps in the deck, and
the sails were thin and full OF little
holes. The sailors painted out the
ships name, Wandering Jew. and
painted on a new name that l could not
read.
Every day at noon the captain
came out and looked at the sun. When
we left Bassora he was a tall.
straight, ruddy-faced man about 40
years old, but after we had sailed in
to the hot sea he grew as old as the
rest. His back was bent, his beard
was long and white, his eye was dull
and watery, and his hand shook. I
tried to talk with him, but he was
very deaf, and his eye was so dull
that l knew he could not understand
me. 1t was like looking into a dead
mans eyes.
The cook was as old as the others,
and he became so weak that it took
him until noon to prepare our break
fast. Then. as he grew weaker, it
was sometimes nearly dark before
breakfast would be ready. After
while, the breakfast for one day would
not be ready until the next day.
But the old men made no COM
plant, for they were so old that they
had no appetite for anything but to-
bacco. They sat and smoked long
pipes, and talked of old times.
"One day the sky was covered with
a curtain of clouds, and rain fell.
Il became afraid, and went back
along the creaking old boards to my
cabin. l stood by the window, and
then a sharp flash of lightning showed
me my face in the window. 1 jumped
back with surprise. 1t was an old
mans face that / saw in the window
pane and not the face 1 had when 1
left Pagdad l was old!
Il was badly frightened. I went
back to the deck. and thought of
jumping into the sea.
Il found the old men at work get
ting bales and bundles out of the ship
and throwing them overheard. While I
the rain fell and the thunder rolled
and the lightning flashed they worked
as if they did not know there was a
tempest. The bales and bundles they
handled were so old and musty that
they almost fell apart. The ropes were
rotten. and the wrapping worn away
so that l could see inside the bundles.
But all l could see was dust, and
dried leaves, and scraps of paper.

then. that while ! was stitching one
day in my shop, little old man came
in and asked me to sew up a rip in his
! jacket. He said he would be back in
an hour to get it, and went away.
Il sewed no the rip, and noticed a
package IN an inside pocket l could
not stop myself, but felt as if l had to
peep into the package. From that piece
/ of foolish curiosity have come all my
troubles which have brought me to old
age before my time. l found in the
package a ticket, which read like this:
Good for one fare on the good ship

AS soon as 1 read the ticket 1 was
seized with wish to go to sea. 'Bas-

Sinbad the Sailor had two brothers
-Tinbad the Tailor and Wiling whang
the Whaler.
Tnbad had a little tailor shop in
Tomcat Alley, behind the palace of
Haroun al Raschid. in Bagdad.
Wiling whang was a whaler who
went up into the frozen seas to catch
whales.
He was almost as good a sailor as
his brother Sinbad, but instead of
looking for diamonds and pearls and
gold that had been buried on islands,
he looked only for whales. So, while
Sinbad was rich, Wiling whang was
poor.
But Tinbad was the poorest of all.
because while his brothers were away
looking for a fortune. he stayed at
home and stitched clothes.
Whing- whang the Whaler was a
strong. red-faced man, and Tinbad the
Tailor was a little, pale. dried-up man.
Wiling whang always had good luck,
but Tinbad always had bad luck.
When Sinbad the Sailor got back to
his ship after the terrible adventures
on the Island of Wrong End To, and
was curled up on his rug in his cabin,
smoking his chibouk. with Nebo fam
ming him with the big peacock fan, a
sailor came running in and said there

King. "W-e-e-e-e! You won't get
any of it,"
Listen, children" said Mother
Goose. The Goblin King can break
off only one piece from every rain
bow. Now, on this rainbow is an
other piece that fits into the gap ex-
actly. Hurry, hurry, and look for it,
It's against the rules for me to tell
you just where it is, but it's a wedge
shaped piece that will just fit the gap.
Cut it out of the part you have al
ready crossed. You mustn't cut across
any line, but must take out a wedge
just as it is. Fit it into the gap and
you can walk across and get the pot OF
gold"
They can't find it! They can't find
it," yelled the Goblin King, chuckllng
diabolically. If you have never heard
a Goblin chuckle, you do not know how
horrible it is.
But in a little while the Goblin King
chuckle changed into a groan of the
most intense and supreme misery and
PAIN for Polly Molly SweetlythingS
had wonderfully sharp eyes; and Rob
inson Crusoe Pettywhistle was wonder
fully good at carpentry work, even
with such an unusual material as rain
bows. And Polly Molly discovered the
right piece to take out and Robinson
CruSoe TOOK IL out just dS last DIS any
thing.
Swiftly they fitted the wedge into the
gap; and Immediately the Goblin King
held his hands high above his head and
dived straight down into nothing.
"Hooray!" cried Mother Goose.
"Quack-a -lack-a-rackle!" cackled the
goose This is goose language for
Good for you, my dear children!" al
though very few persons know it.
Polly Molly Sweetlythings and Rob
inson Crusoe Pettywhistle took the big
pot by it's handle and carried it home.
There were more than a million dollars
in it, and the pot. after it was empty,
was worth thirty-eight cents alone. So
they had a good deal of wealth for
those days.
They bought taffy candy and a dolls
house and a box of pewter soldiers
mounted on horses with flowing tails.
And even then they had quite lot of
money left.
Could YOU have found the wedge
shaped piece? You would better try, for
there is no telling at what moment any
of you might have the very same kind
Of adventure on rainbow. and then
the knowledge would be useful indeed.
Study the picture and try it.

SOLUTION OF LAST SUNDAYS
JAPANESE SCREEN PUZZLE

How Muchie JOY Showed Poor o

Lord Hari Kari would surely have
