Magic in a School F1Ouse-The Won
derfuI Tale Of a Fairy Wand Hiddel
for Hundreds Of Years in a HoIIOv
Tree and Found by a Poor Boy

AT AIRY tales serve no useful purpose" said
the wise schoolteacher. 81 am quite sure
that, as there never was fairy, 1t IS better
to say nothing about them
"S'posc q fairy should walk right In here, what
would you do - asked Berry Stratton.
The teacher smiled and said;
"Supposing that the impossible could happen,
would demand that she prove herself fairy by
doing some impossible thing, such changing me
into a horse, for instance"
No sooner had the words left his lips than the
schoolteacher changed into q horse. Right before
the astonished eyes of all the school stood big
brown horse, with what seemed to be the teachers
very smile still ON its face.
The school held its breath. The horse, too seemed
10 feel the establishment that held the children spell
bound and stood as if it dared not move
Suddenly, as if recalling his last words, some Of
the children rose in terror and started toward the
door, when Perry called out:
Say Don't be scared It's only an old horssi
He can't hurt youp
Thus arrested, they turned and all the school gath
cred around the ANIMAL which, after all, their
teacher in another shape, examining him with much
interest and guessing at the of the transfer
nation. The horse gazcd appcalingly at them, as if
begging for help and seemed to feel how ridiculous
be looked, bat IN a few minutes Hardy Williams,
the biggest bog, said:
''Well it's DONE and he's horse, ali right I

said Bessie
"Wel, after that long time passed, and bime by

"Aud faded entirely away" added Bessie "She
dwinded and withered all up"
"But her fairy wand that every fairy has, you
know, that didn't wither, but after long time the
tree got all hollow inside, and she lived IN theres
and when She wthered all up the stick STAYED there
all right. The old woman told us she thought it was
made of witch hazel or something like that"
"But faint; it's made of ivory. and it has all
sorts of funny marks on It,"
"Well after that we used to 60 hunting round for
hollow trees, and guess we found more'u a million,
but there wasn't any wand In one of them. Then We
gave it up, but yesterday afternoon, when we were
sitting an old rotten stump down by Webster's
Mills, saw something sticking up out Of it and
pulled the wand out"
The school including the teacher, was now in a
state of intense excitement, and all were crowded
about the bue-eyed boy, who drew from his sleeve
a thin wand of yellOwlsh ivory.
Il knew 1t was the fairy's wand, and 30 did Bess,
Just as soon as saw it. ] cleaned it all of and

"No. not never said thati" cried the teacher:

"Well all right When YOU said it I lust pointed
the wand at you to see what il would do and said

they carried her promptly to a pile of wood, which
in those times was pretty nearly always ready to

The smoke was so thick that at first he could not
see what was going on, but when he heard the peo-
pie cry: "Witehl Sorceress!" he knew that they
had seized pretty Bessie and were about to burn
her.
Waving his wand he changed the flames to icicles
in a twinkling and dashed up to the pile.
'Sick EN-" he shouted to the dragon and the
monster dashed into the crowd
On, there was a scrambling tLen, tell yous and

Bessie from her bonds. When the great courtyard
was deserted he called to the dragon and said:

"There's a fine old castle that has been deserted

Now, I suppose you are anxious to know what

Tad when Dir. Wiles attacked him so savagely as to

they both found themselves sitting on messy bank
surrounded by flowers beneath tail and beautiful

Far in the distance. across emerald meadows,
