THE Gorgeous HEAD
Wonderful Adventures Of with the Magic Wallet
the Enchanted Carpet and the Helmet of
Darkness

Once upon a time a very wick
ed king named Polydectes ruled
over a wicked people on the island
of Seripus. He was so very bad
he resolved to get rid of the only
good people on the island-Prin-
cess Danae and her son Perseus
noble and courageous youth.
So King Polydectes sent Per-
seus on a most dangerous mis-
sion, to slay the Gorgon Medusa
and bring back her head as a SOU
venir. He never expected to see
Perseus again, for the three Cor
gons were sisters with terrible
tusks, and hands like brass claws,
and scales like iron all over their
bodies. Instead of hair, hundreds
of big snakes grew on their heads,
all alive, twisting, wriggling and
thrusting out their venomous
tongues. Worst of all. if once you
fixed your eyes on a Gorgeous face
you would be instantly turned to
stone.
and soon met an odd, brisk young
stranger namd Quicksilver, wear
ing wings on his cap and shoes.
Quicksilver volunteered to help
Perseus and led him through the
dark woods to find the Three Grey
Sisters, funny old women who
could direct him to the place
where the Nymphs lived, for, he
could not Stay Medusa without
first getting from the Nymphs the
magic wallet, the flying slippers
and the helmet of darkness. The
Three Grey Sisters were the
strangest persons Perseus had
ever seen, for they had only one
big, bright eye between them,
which they took turns using, and
quarreled about all the time. One
of them, Scarecrow, took the eye
out of the center of her forehead
and held it out for Nightmare or
Shakejoint to take-for they
hadn't seen Perseus. Just then
Perseus grabbed the eye. they
pleaded and pleaded with Perseus
to return their one and only eye,
but he would not until they told
him where to seek the NyInphs
He found the Nymphs soon after
and they kindly gave him all he
asked. He strapped the magic
wallet to his side and with the fly
ing slippers he could fly through
the air like a bird. When he put
on the helmet of darkness, pres
to! no one could see him, nor the
helmet either. =
They flew long, long way
over land adm sea until at last they
saw an island on which lay sleep
ing the three terrible Gorgons.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-09-13

Then Perseus was glad he had pol
ished his shield, as Quicksilver
had told him to do, until it shone
like a mirror, for in it he could
see the reflection of Medusas face,
without risking being turned to
stone.
The moonlight glistened on
snakes in their hair writhed and
these terrible creatures and the
twisted, though asleep. Perseus
slashed off the wicked Medusa' s
head with one blow of his sword.
Instantly the other oGrgons
jumped up screaming and strug-
Cling, but Perseus flew away
again, with Medusa's head in the
magic wallet, which had quickly
expanded to hold it. - Back flew
Perseus, straight to Seriphus.
King Polydectes summoned all his
wicked subjects to see Medusa' s
head, but Perseus felt sorry for
them, wicked as they were, and
did not want to show it.
"Show us the Gorgeous head or
| will cut off your own" thunder
ed the king.
Behold it them" cried Perseus,
and as they looked this bad king
and all his subjects turned to
hard, glistening stone. Then Per-
seus went to tell his good mother
they need fear the wicked King
PolydecteS no longer.

SHORT STORY ABOUT
A LONG TAIL

Think OF q
rooster with tail
feathers IL feet
long!
The japanese,
who fancy the
bizarre in plants
and animals, are
now making a
great fad of their
long-tailed roost-
ers. Every chick
en- show exhibits
many of them,
their tails meas
uring from eight
to twelve feet.
The long-tailed
ROSTERS are a
striking example
of what selection
scientifically car
ried out can do
in breeding. The
Japs evolved the
12-foot tail from
the short tail of
the common barn
yard cock, but it
took 100 years to
do it.
The ROSTERS
are kept in high,
narrow cages,
with the perch
at the top. Once
in two days they
are taken for a
walk, men hold
ing their tails up
from the dirt
during the prom
enade. When
the birds are
sent to shows
they are slipped
into what look
like long mailing
tubes. Once a
month their tails
are washed in
warm water.
