was pink shouted the incorrigibles-
oh, yes it was pink, said L, and
there was little crippled girl-It was
little crippled boy they sobbed.
when their nurse came home 1 was
exhausted. Now, when mothers two
darlings go to sleep mother shall write
those down so the fairies shall not get
mixed again., said to my little ones"
At this juncture Mrs. Harrison, with
merry twinkle in her eye, said: But
would you believe it, nurse could not
read my writing. Then Mr.. Harrison
came to my rescue and had them type
written.
Stories Submitted to Publisher
But leaves would go astray, and
nurse one day said: Mrs. Harrison,
why don't you have those bound for the
children?' Why, how absurd to make
book of those simple tales!' / replied.
About this time Mrs Clark. mother of
Mrs. Harding Davis, saw the stories
and insisted on showing them to her
famous son-in-law, who not only rec
commended having them put in book
form, but submitting them to pub
Usher.
II was finally persuaded to take them
to McClurg. who Immediately accepted
them, but as there were but three he
asked for two more to make book.
l had not told him my name and re-
quested that If they were published at
all they should be anonymous. Later
when l returned with my other stories
they said / shauld leave my name. l
handed my card and they began to
urge me to allow my name to be used.
Well, publishers are insstent, and I
finally yielded.
This happened at the time of Prince
Henry's visit to Chicago and, although
my gown for that great ball was the
prettiest l ever possessed, l think l
was more delighted over my stories
than l was over the prospect of wear
ing pretty gown and participating
in brilliant function.
"Prince silver Wings"
1.-THE first story of my first book,
from which it gets it's title. Prince
Silver Wings was founded on little
episode in Edith's and my life But
there were two little cripples instead
of one. DO you know If l were to have
said two little cripples instead of one
little children would not have been so
deeply impressed.

us and return to his duties?
'Mr. Harrison came here with us,
Carter and Edith and me, to see us
settled for the winter We were obliged
to come on account of Carter's health,
and I've really never been away from
Mr.. Harrison before. But his is a
busy life and could not urge him away
from his duties. 4-
Chicago Winter Severe
"The winter of Chicago was a trifie
severe for my son, who suffered an
attack of grip in the beginning of the
season, so the doctor recommended
your beautiful climate, with it's wealth
of flowers and balmy sunshine, for him.
Social duties? Oh, yes. social du-
ties devolve on one, of course, but
then, devotion to ones home and chill
dren is first, you know"
This gave an opening for the story
of the marvellous success of the books
of fairy tales written by Mrs. Harrison.
She was New Orleans belle dozen
years ago, when she became the bride
of the Chicago millionaire. Her family,
the Ogdens, were all Virginians. In
point of fact, her grandfather Judge
Robert Ogden, is the twelfth genera.
tion of first sons named Robert, there
having been eleven consecutive Robert
Ogdens before him. Mrs. Harrison

her handsome 10-year-o old Edith, "ilI-

bedtime for her and Carter and me.
Chlldlike, they insisted on story, and

Told Children Fairy Stories
"One day my nurse, who had been
with the family dozen years, left, and
took care OF little Edith and Carter
myself. / had a good stock of stories
on hand and 1 felt sure of being able
to keep the children amused. So 1 told
my first story. To my utter amazement

and youthful throats. You didn't end

FAIRY TALES BY
WIFE OF MAYOR
MRS. CARTER H. HARRISON
WRITES CLEVER WORKS
"Prince silver Wings" and "The Star
Fairies" Are Contributions of
Gifted Chicago Woman to
Delight Little Ones

The creator of world of fairies
whose realm has been carried to the
minds of thousands of little children,
Mrs. Carter Harrison, wife of Mayor
Carter Harrison of Chicago, and author
of "Prince Silver Wings" and 'The
Star Fairies is, with her son, Carter
Harrison, Jr., and daughter Edith,
spending the winter at Hotel Redondo.
To meet and talk to this gifted
woman, whose wondrous fairy tales
have found their way into thousands
of homes. and for more of whose crea-
tions publishers and infant lips are
clamoring, is to go away with the con-
viction that one has met a woman,
a devoted wife and mother, a mistress of
society and it's arts, a gentle nature
with mind of unusual depth and
breadth, the whole crowned with sweet,
unfeigned modesty.
When seen at her apartments re-
Gently Mrs. Harrison said:
Its rather foolish of me, is it not

Revenue? Oh yes; there is a gen.

letters every year making demands
on my sympathy and funds. Some of
these are frauds and others deserving,
so 1 always endeavor to Investigate
them.
"One letter came to me asking aid
for two little cripples. At first I laid
it among others set aside, but it's con-
tents kept recurring to me and 1 could
not dismiss 1t from my mind.
FINALLY l said to Edith, We shall
call on that broken hearted mother and
see what can be done
1--WE found a clean dwelling, a bright
| faced, neat mother and three smiling
!, little children, two of whom were per-
| feet from the waist up, put whose little
! twisted limbs were pitiful sight. The
mother was anxious that the children
| should be treated. She could not af-
ford to pay for them and her mother
! heart hoped against hope for some
kindly aid to come to her. Through the
efforts of DIR. c. e. Dudley of Chicago
| the little ones were placed in hospital
operated on, little limbs broken and re-
broken and eventually Strengthened.
Now, you have the story which in
spired the one fairy tale founded on
fact.
Legend of Cotton
| 'In another l have described my
grandmother's home. 1 always write
one story of the south. In another a
legend of cotton.
do you know there is no legend of
cotton in the south? In that land where
| folk lore abounds and where supersti-
| tion is the life of the darky. there. is
not a story of the cotton plant.
when l came out here 1 was busy
on another book which must be in the
publishers hands in few weeks. But
1 have changed my plans in this book.
1t shall abound in California life and
landmarks. Already L have incorpo-
rated in it the glorious jewel beach
here where are to be found so many
beautiful moonstones and semi-precious
stones.
'I am thankful to my children for
| having inspired their mother. Just as
they are emerging from the fairy sto-
ries and are on the threshold of mu-
sic and Latin and history they have
shown her a way to put in her idle
| moments.
''I never could endure idleness and
with Mr.. Carter so engrossed in poll
tics and public life l have many spare
moments.
my first book is in it's fourth edi-
tion and the other is in its second.

wsshington's Birthday iu the Nogsiss
 Public School.

Tuesday afternoon our city pub- lie schools held appropriate exer- cises in the several departments in commemoration of the birth of Washington. The high school had an especially attractive program of readings, recitationS and music
 The program was started with a violin duet by Masters Duane Bird and Jack 0'Keefe, with piano accompaniment by Allen Tracy Bird, Jr. The next was President Washington's Receptions" by Dora Hannah. This brought out the peculiar manner of receiving in the early history of our country, and especially the exactness with which every detail was required to be had by the President. These recep- tions were of bi-weekly occur renee, and were always held Tuesday afternoon. The Life of Washington" was told in poetry and prose, in readings and recita- tions by the following pupils: Mabel Marleau, Grover Marstellar, Pearl Marleau, Robert Saxon, Emma Ashley, Tracy Bird, George Raphael, Alice Cirlos, Margaret Gittins, Mercedes Lopez and Oracle Gildea.
 In addition to appropriate songs by the school. Masters Duane Bird and Jack O'Keefe rendered vio- lin solo each. This being the first appearance in public for these young violinists, they were the re- cipients of hearty encores. Their duet and solos were also rendered iIsseyeral other rooms.
