will be the end Of her"
No.. no. cried Otto. where Is my
poor little girl, do not let the witch
harm her; take me to her."
'I cannot do that" said the giant,
"but II you really want Gladio r will
bring her back, but remember. if I do
this you win lose your nice, comfortable
home and go back to your poor house,
where / first found YOU"
Il do not care, replied Otto, "only
bring back Gladio and / will never
again complain"
at will bring her tonight" said the
giant as he hurried away.
{ That night when the moon was shin
ing and Otto and the four sisters sat
around bright fire sleighbells were
heard.
The sisters ran to the window and
looked out.
A beautiful white sleigh drawn by four
white horses wearing silver harnesses
and silver bells came dashing down the
road and stopped in front Of the door.
There were two people in the sleigh
besides the driver; one was a lady
dressed in beautiful white furs and the
other was a gentleman In a dark fur
coat and cap. The gentleman jumped
out and helped the lady. who sprang to
the ground and ran UP the steps.
The four sisters ran to open the door,
for they thought some royal persons
had come to visit them, but when they
opened the door there stood their sis-
ter Gladio, and beside her a handsome
young man.
Otto ran to Gladio and took her in his
arms. You shall stay here" he said,
land never leave your old father again;
but who is this gentleman" he asked.
This is my husband said OAadio,
smiling. IT have brought you a SON.
The sisters did not understand 1t, but
they felt sure that 1t would be to their
advantage to welcome Gladio, and so
they gathered around her and kissed
her, looking at her rich furs with jeal-
Gus. eyes.
"Rave you come to stay?" they asked,
fearing they would lose their comfort
able home.
question. he left Otto and went to the
sisters and said. mo, your sister will
not deprive you OF your home; she has
come to carry her father to her home In
the palace where she will live with me-"
Then he told them that he was a
prince, and that he was looking for
wife, when he came in the fcrrn of a
cruel giant. A witch had helped him to
Disguise himself, so that he might find
a good wife among the poor.
Then he told Otto that he had visited
the sisters and told them how unhappy
Gladio was that he might test their
love for their sister. but that all of them
had been willing that she should be
changed into black cat, that they
might live in comfort.
You shall not lose your home" he
told the selfish sisters, but Gladio and
: will take your father with us, for he
wanted his daughter back, even IL he
lost mis- comfortable home.
You do not deserve a good sister,
such as Gladio. and you viii never see
her again.
Otto rode away in the white sleigh
with Gladio and her prince, and the

HEN the four sisters saw the
Giant thew ali. oaIIaa o,1f az

EUY HEN the four sisters saw the
" giant they all called out al
" once: what Is the matter
for they were afraid he had
come to return Gladio and take their
new home from them.
Your little sister Is homeack," said
the giant. "and she wishes to come back
to you. She has cried all night and will
not eat. What shall dor" he. asked.

give up your home and be poor again" /"
mo. no." said all four sisters at once;
keep her, she is a silly child, and II
she does not stop crying shut her In a
dark room and feed her on bread and
water"
Then they hurried the giant away for
fear their father would see him and
near his story.
The giant has been here" they told
Otto when he came in the house, "and
Giadio Is quite well and happy. She has
everything she wants."
The next day while Otto was out the
giant called again.
What Is the matter?" called all four
sisters, for this time they were sure
the giant had Gladio In one o. his big
pockets.

of an old WITCH said the giant, ''and

less you take her back at once, and she
Is crying for her sisters and her father;

mo, no,' replied all the sisters at
once, keep her and let the witch
change her into a cat; that will be the
end Of her and you will not be bothered
with her crying and we will not have her
home: Hurry away they said, before
our father sees you"
Now, the truth OF the matter was that
Gladio was very happy in her new
home, but the giant wished to test the
hard hearted sisters.
They watched him out OF sight, but
they did not know that he returned
by another road to look for Otto, and
when he saw him he called very softly
so that the sisters might not hear
otto! Ottoi"
When Otto heard his name he looked
around and when he saw the giant ne
hurried to him, asking eagerly, Where
is Gladio; Is she well?'
NO" said the giant, she is crying
for you and wants to come home, but
you need not take her back II you do

For Stubborn Jelly.

When your jelly will not jell. and that
happens to every cook at times, do not
turn 1t back into a saucepan to cook II
over; that breaks the little gelatined
globules that have formed even though
not enough to make jell. and you will
have at best a sticky. stringy mess;
but take a large dripping pan, half fill
it with water, set your undisturDed
glasses Of jell in II, not close enough to
touch, put into a hot over, and let them
bake till sufficiently jeIled. 1t some
times takes three-quarters Of an hour,
but the jelly will cut as smooth ami
clean as though stiff enough at a first
cooking

FLIGHT OVER BAY
NOW OBJECT OF
NAVAL OFFICERS
May Leave Annapolis for
Hampton Reads in Hydro
Aero Today.

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 1o.-Lieutenants
Theodore G. Ellyson and J. H. Towers,
OF the United States Navy, graduates
of the Curtiss Aviation School, are
preparing to attempt the longest fight
ever attempted in a hydro-aeroplane, a
distance Of 40 miles over the waters of
Chesapeake bay, from Annapolis to
Hampton Roads.
A trial start was made yesterday
afternoon, Lieutenant Elyson being
the pilot and Lieutenant Towers, the
passenger, but some engine trouble
compelled a return after flying about
Sive miles.
The aviators are busy putting their
machine in shape, and hope to be, able
to start this afternoon. though possibly
they will be delayed until tomorrow
morning.
The flight will be a combined air and
water trip, and will be over a course
made familiar to the young officers
from frequent cruises while midship-
men at Annapolis, and later in the
eerVice.
