was even difficult to decide which one
of her possessions to take farewell of
first. There were here father and
mother and brother and sisters. There
was her beautiful apartment in the
palace and there was her garden.
There were her maids of honor, her
fine carriage and her pretty dresses.
There was her saddle horse, per-
fectly trained Arabian pony. There
were her dolls and other playthings,
which she still loved although she was
getting little too grown-up to play
with them. There were her dog and
her kitten. Really, it was very diff
cult indeed!
Her father and mother wept bit
terly, of course, but they were con-
WINGED of the wisdom of her choice
to have her troubles while she was
young and strong enough to bear
them. At last the good-bys to her par

of the palace the princess did not care
greatly, but her garden was very dear
to her, and she was grieved when she

The Voice
of the Wind

b y ISA BEL MOORE

Once king had a daughter whom
he dearly loved. She had always
been brought up very sensibly, in spite
OF her being princess, and had been
taught how to dress herself and how
to do up her own hair without the
help of ladys maid. And her habit
was, after she had dressed in the
morning, to go into the garden to get
breath of fragrant air before break
fast and to gather flower to place in
her hair
One day, when she was in the gar
den, she heard a voice saying:
How will you have your troubles
when you are young or when you are
old?"
This happened several times and
the princess, filed with curiosity and
tired of hearing always the same ques-
ton, went one day into the palace and
said to her maid of honor:
DO you linow what has happened
to me these last few days? 1 keep
hearing voice that says to me, when
| am gathering my flowers, Which
will you do; go through your troubles
in your youth, or in your old age?"
Tie maid of honor replied:
List IN, royal lady: For my part, 1
should say that 1 preferred having
my troubles when young With my
old age / would acquire more power"
The princess combed and dressed
herself the next morning and went
into the garden as usual, where she
heard the voice that spoke to her;
and when it asked her the curious
question, the princess replied that she
would rather go through her troubles
in her youth than in her old age.
The voice rejoined:
"Take leave, then, of everything
here that is yours"
THAT is not SO difficult" said the
princess.
But when she came to actually say
good-by it was another matter. 1t

flashed from all the windows of the
Tuilleries and the gray, harmonious

The Sunset

That afternoon late in October had
been magnificent and the peaceable
lounger had spent the whole of it in
book-hunting. He had examined the
book-stalls, beginning at the breast
work of st. Michael's quay, not in the
hope of finding rare Aldus or a
priceless Elzevir-it is now too late
for one to pick up lie Patissier Fran
co.'s" on two-sous counter-but mere
ly in order to enjoy for longer time
the beautiful walk along the banks of
the Seine and to beguile his thoughts
with the last smile of the fine season
The lovely day! A clear sky, warm
sun, and, now and then, the sudden
caress of cool, light breeze. About
halfway on his course, in front of the
Hotel des Monnaies, the book-hunter
had found and bought, for the modest
sum of two francs, copy, somewhat
damaged but still very presentable, of
Aloysius Bertrand's "Gaspard de la
Mutt" which filled the most important
gap in his collection of the romanti-
cists. Then, tenderly squeezing his
new-found treasure under his arm, he
had continued his inspection so far as
Pont-Royal, where he arrived at about
five o'clock. IIe was little weary;
the round tables set out in front of
the Cafe d'Orsay invited him to rest
So he seated himself and ordered a
glass of beer.
Then he looked about him; the hour
was exquisite. Below, to the left, the
sun was setting majestically in the
pale blue sky, which trembled beneath
his rays, and he threw his golden fare
we'll to the fair Partisan landscape.
The group of plane-trees, the branches
of which mingled with the yards of
the frigate, the slender poplars which
shaded the Vigier baths, and, farther
off, the tufted chestnut-trees on the
terrace by the water, all had just be-
gun to glow under the sunsets long

The height of the atmosphere above
