taller than Michael himself His cloth
ing consisted of a green doublet and
hose. He wore thin green cloak over
his left shoulder, while on his head was

voice.

ael
why" said VIII, this is the king
dom of Will o the Wisp This is where
the shadows live
rs my shadow and Norah's here?"
VIII led Michael into another room.
This room was very gray. All around
the walls were small closets without
doors. Above the entrance of each was
stationed bright green flame. These
Will told Michael were Will O. the
Wisps also.
As Michael and Will went around the
room looking for the formers shadow,
on the other side of the room, unseen,
were Norah and VIII No. 2. They also
were looking for Norah's shadow.
Norah happened to look across the
room just as Michael came under an
extra bright flame.
"Oh. here is Michael" she cried
Michael, Michael" and Michael ran
across the room to his sister.

All but three of the twenty four

king in this land, took the chair at the
head, with Michael and NOrah on either
side.
After they had eaten, the Wills con-
yeyed the children home.

very pretty
The walls were all decorated and
had all kinds of pictures, some of them
were framed.
Outside of the castle was a nice
green lawn and all kinds of flowers, it
also had cement walks all around and
in front. The castle was two stories
high, it had fifteen rooms.
The parents of Lucille and Lucille
went home and they talked it over to
each other, and so they bought the
place with the money that Lucille's

the castle very much. They moved all

Michael went farther and farther.
All that the green elf would say was
to "follow me, follow me-" Michael
did follow, and behold! He was far
away in an unknown land where there
were all little elves and fairies.
Just then a fairy stepped up to him
and said: You must go to the gar
den of Hesperides for three golden
apples. Go and bring me the singing
bird, and music tree, and the yellow
water that shall never fail" Michael
said farewell and departed.
He met an old hermit and asked him
il he could tell him about the bird or
tree or water.
II can" replied the hermit. Here's
a ball which will guide you so far. 1t
then will go no further. Go, and give
no attention to any voices you hear"
Michael took the ball and threw it
and it landed on the foot of a noun
tain. He went up, but he heard so
many voices he ran back, and was
turned into stone. Norah passed
through the same thing until she
started to where the ball went. She
first stopped her ears with cotton and
she came to the talking bird and asked
for the tree. The bird told her where
to find it and she got the water too.
Then the stone images all resumed
their own shapes. There were all the

young men who had tried, but only
Norah had succeeded. When she went
back to the fairies they held a great
feast and after many years in the
fairyland the children begged to come
home and see old Barney. They wish
for "A beautiful palace and the bird
and singing tree. and the water that
never failed, too.
They would tell their children the
same story and they never forgot old
Barney. They always warned their
children of the elf who was so mis-
chieVous.

'Hurrah!" shouted all in one breath
as the wall flew out, and as suddenly
a hushed whisper, "Run!" for they

they were in their parents arms and

VIII Write No Escc,oirs.

Many Americans as well as English
in high stations in London were re-
lieved on learning that Sir George
Lewis, who knows more of the secrets
OF rank and fashion than any other
person living. has retired from the
law. promising that none of these Sc
crets shall ever become known The
condolences Teposed in him became a
quarter of century ago too impor-
tant to be trusted to writing, and he
then quit keeping a diary. Now he
announces that he has written no me-
moirs and will write none. He has
been adviser in most of the celebrated
scandal cases for 40 years. He fig
ured in the Tranby Croft case, in
which he summoned the present king
as a witness. Labouchere was one of
his staunchest friends and employed
him not only to defend endless libel
suits. but also to assist in the expo
sure of a vast number of impostors.
He had marked talent as peace
maker and he usually contrived to ar
range scandals with minimum of
publicity.

with chilled steel bars was futile. for
that very night four more of his
choice leghorns disappeared, leaving
the severed and twisted bars as the
only visible evidence of the theft.
However. his suspicious pointed
toward his next door netghbor. whom
he had seen prowling around his yard
that day and, accordingly. he had this
suspect up in police court the next
morning.
"If the prisoner can file an alibi,
I'll let him off with suspended sen.

end of the evidence. Can you file
