speaking firmly. At the very moment that she made this VOW the door was cast open and a strong ray of light entered. Then a white-robed figure, bearing wand in her hand, entered. At the sight of her the young dwarfs sank to the ground.

 Il have been hunting you, Lies!" cried the fairy. "oyer hill and dale. through forest deep and on mountains tall. And now I have found you. Perish. you Lies!' As she said this the fairy waved her wand and the floor of the cave opened and swal- lowed the fighting band of Lies. And as 1t closed over them a small dark form entered the cave. It was the Master Lie. He stood trembling with rage, his eyes starting from his head. How dare you-even though you be a fairy--to come into my domain ?" And he looked boldly at the fairy. Don't you know that I have legions of evil spirits in this forest? And they'll rise up and put an end to you and all your band of fairies if you meddle thus with me-"
 ''Ah, you are the master of them all" And the fairy smiled. Tt has been said that if we can strike off the head of the Master Lie that his sub jects will perish of themselves. So off must come your head. wicked one."
 Before the hideous dwarf oould speak another word Kathleen saw his head roll upon the floor. Then the rocks opened and he was swallowed up with his own. And never since that night has Lie been seen in that forest. The fairy waved her wand over that cave after she had led Kath- leen forth from 1t and 1t was levelled with the land and no cave existed there any more.
 After coming forth from the cave with the good fairy Kathleen told her of her wish to find her aunt who lived beyond the mountains.
 T will lead you thither," said the fairy. Blood is thicker than water When we come to the place where your mothers sister dwells your heart will tell you. Then we will stop and you will have found her"
 
 night, and on the following day Kath- leen found they had crossed the mountains and were In a beautiful valley. They journeyed by foot, but 1t was as though they were flying, for the fairy merely touched Kath- leens feet with her wand and all tiredness would leave them and she went like young deer over the most rugged places.
 At noon. Just as they were passing a fine vineyard Kathleen beheld a dark haired woman trimming some of the vines Her heart went pit-a-pat and suddenly she thought she beheld her own mothers face. The fairy stopped, smiling. Your aunt wonder" And she pointed her little wand towards the bending woman in the vineyard. "Go to her, my child. And your life shall be happy henceforth." |"

chorus sung by his companions.
 Soon after the picnic party had left the woods there came along winding path two little children, boy and a girl. They passed right through that part of the grove where the picnickers from town had been spending the day. The boy carried a basket, and the little girl carried 8 bouquet of wild flowers. They were on their way home from a neighbours, and had gathered the flowers by the roadside. The little boy had some books and papers which his mother had sent him to borrow from the neighbor.
 Just as they were passing the great flat rock beneath the giant tree the little boy stopped and cried out: "Oh. see that pretty box!" Then he ran to the rock and picked up the box which had been left there by Arthur. Quickly he opened the lid and stood amazed at the pretty playthings exposed. There, on top, was Master Spinner. though neither the little boy nor girl knew his name. And beneath Master Spinner were a dozen or more pretty marbles, jack knife, some tacks and SIT1nR dHo 8 llLtlo lllA HUI H WAANAA AAes0O A great noise when the little boy blew through 1t.

The children stonped to examine the contents of the nlav-box and were so happy over their discovery that had good-hearted Ar thur seen them at the moment h@ would have rejoiced that he had left the box for them to find. "A top" Sandy's eyes shone with anticipation. "The biggest top ever saw!

 Goldie grabbed up her bouquet and Sandy placed the play-box gently into his basket on top the books and pa pers. Then the two little ones hur- ried homeward as fast as they could go. On arriving at their own farm house their mother came into the yard to meet them. A few big drops or rain were falling, and the clouds were making the day dark.
 See, see, mamma, the fairies must have left this on the spring rock for us." It was Sandy who held up the box to show to his mother. "Well, what a pretty box" said the mother. by name Mrs. Jenkins. Tell me all about where you got it." Then she led her two little ones into the house for the rain was coming down pretty fast.
 Then Sandy and 0oldie told their mother how they had made the short cut through the woods as they saw the storm coming and wanted to get home as quickly as possible. So they had taken the woods path, instead o1

N N KATHLEEN was seven years old
 A when she became an orphan.
 She went out into the edge of the forest to weep alone after the burial of her father and :aother. They had been very poor but honest peasants and very fond of their only child, little Kathleen.
 Being alone in the world, Kathleen's heart was heavy indeed, and all day she wandered about in the edge of the great, dim forest. Towards even ing she became tired and sought to rest a bit beside spring where flowed silver water. Hardly had Kathleen seated herself on a messy rock when footstep caused her to look round. There, approaching her, came curl ous-looking creature, a dwarf with a huge head. His eyes stuck out and his tongue lolled, and his nose was red and long. Hair hung about his head in greasy locks and his feet were in the shape of hoofs with long hair on them. Kathleen shuddered, for shS feared the horrible creature that approached her.
 Be not afraid little one," spoke the dwarf, coming close to Kathleen. q am the friend of little ones. l have fine castle full of pretty girls and boys-orphans who have come to me from time to time. They have great sport playing with fine toys that I make for them, and they live in ease and contentment all the day long,"
 Kathleen felt treasured after the dwarf spoke thus, for she was very young little girl and knew not deceit or falsehood. Her parents had been such honest, kindly folk and she knew of no sin. So she believed the ugly dwarf, and her heart swelled with pity for him on account of his de- formity and ugliness. Her parents had always shown such sympathy for unfortunates, and it was Kathleen's nature to be kindhearted.
 Shall I lead you to my castle, where all the other children are?" asked the dwarf. You are lonely and without a home."
 Yes my father and mother are dead" And as she told the dwarf tears began to flow from Kathleen's eyes.
 "Ah, yes, ah, yes," nodded the dwarf, pretending to feel sorry for Kathleens sorrow. "But after you have played in my castle courtyard you will be happy again. It is wicked to weep over what the good Lord doeth'
 Kathleen dried her eyes. The dwarf spoke like a Christian. Perhaps it was wrong for her to weep for her father and her mother. She must not do so again. She got up and said: Yes. I will go to your castle and be another of your little children if you wish It."
 So the ugly dwarf, with his hoof- like feet, led the way through the forest deep. A long, long time they walked, and at last they came to the door of dark cave. The dwarf grin ningly said: Here's my castle gate, my child'' Kathleen's heart sank,

for the entrance to the cave looked gloomy and dangerous. Some fore boding held the child back.
 "Go inl' The dwarf spoke harshly and pushed Kathleen inside the yawn- ing caves mouth. Kathleen tried to scream out, but fear tied her tongue She could hear terrible sounds issu- ing from the cave, shrieks and yelling of igthing creatures. What could it mean?
 My children playing in the castle courtyard" explained the dwarf. Come in." He took Kathieen's hand and led her into the cave, far into the very inner part of the earth, it seemed to the frightened child. And pretty. soon she saw a light. It proved to be torch which was waving along to9ards them. As they drew nearer to the light Kathleen beheld it to be in the hands of hideous dwarf-child. a counterpart of the ugly creature who had led her there. A cry rose to Kathleen's lips, but something held her silent.
 And then another and another child dwarf came into view, each carrying

we do all the evil we can. And our master teaches us. He is the Su- preme Lie. And he is a robber, too. He takes us out to steal.'
 And what do you steal?" asked Kathleen.
 We steal the truth away from weak people-people who cannot withstand temptation. And we steal character and good will"
 Kathleen shrunk from the band of dwarfs, for she knew them to be lies. That was why they fought and hurt each other and lived in filth and dark ness. Oh, why had she got into the hands of the great deceiver?
 Just then the band of dwarfs fell upon each other in fierce fight. Some knocked the others down and all cried out with pain. One jumped to its feet and ran to Kathleen, his tongue thrust out. "See what you will look like when you become lie!"
 T will never lie," cried Kathleen,

coming by the big road. And beneath the great tree, lying right in sight on top the spring rock was this lovely box. It looked as though somo good fairy had left 1t there for them.
 Mrs. Jenkins smiled. Perhaps" she asserted. And maybe there are fairies to do nice things for such good little ones as mine."
 Then Goldie and Sandy played with the marbles and Master Spinner. How the big top did spin! It made the little ones laugh and clap their hands to see 1t go round and round s6 swift ly. Why 1t seemed to be hardly mov- ing. 1t went so rapidly.
 The days that followed were made happy for Sandy and Goldie by their Fairy Box" They played with the pretty contents of the box for hours and hours. One day. while they were spinning Master Spinner a neighbor drove up to the gate.
 Hello. little Master and Miss Jen- kins!" he called out to Sandy and Goldie. Say, ask your mother if I may take you to my house to spend the day. Tommy's not so well today and wants some little friends to come and pass the. time with him. You know the doctors orders are that he cannot go. out yet for some time. He must content himself playing in the house."
 Just then Mrs. Jenkins came to the door, and seeing their neighbor, MT. Albertson, she went out to the gate to ask him about his little son Tommy. The child had been very. very Ill for a long time.
 "Tommy's getting along as well as we can expect" informed MT. Albert son, in reply to Mrs. Jenkins inquiry. "But the time drags with the little

chap, and today he seems peevish. It's because he needs some company to cheer him up."
 Well. take my children over to your house." said Mrs. Jenkins. They may remain till after supper with Tommy, unless he grows tired of them before that time."
 "No danger his getting tired of Sandy and Goldie," laughed MT. AL bertson. He's too fond of them for that"
 Then Goldie and Sandy hurriedly got ready to go to spend the day with Tommy Albertson. And as they climbed into the wagon with MT. AL bertson Sandy had the Fairy Box" under his arm. Mrs. Jenkins laughed when she saw it. ''He sleeps with that box beneath his pillow" she told MT. Albertson. Then she related the story of the box, and said that both Sandy and Goldie thought a good fairy had left 1t for them.
 When MT. Albertson let Goldie and Sandy out at his own door they ran into the house crying out: "Oh, Tommy, we have brought pretty box that fairy left in the woods for us." Then both children stopped short. standing in the middle of the room, for there were two strangers there. A beautiful lady and young boy. Tommy, who was sitting in big chair beside the open window, told Goldie and Sandy in whispers that this lady and her son were from town, and had stopped there to inquire their way to certain farm house.
 Well, to make q long story short. the lady was Mrs. Harris and the little boy was Arthur And at the moment when the little children ran into the room, crying out that they had a box

 "c7Naster Spinner"

70 TITLE Arthur Harris papa
 brought to him a pretty red-and-
 black top, one which would spin - and spin for ever so long time without falling over. Arthur loved to spin tops. so his papa brought one to him quite often. Consequently Ar thur had several very fine big ones. And whenever his young friends came to play with him he would give top to each and they would sit on the porch and. spin by the hour.
 But this particular ied-and-black top was Arthur's pride, aid he always gave 1t to his very best friend to play with. for Arthur was an unselfish boy and loved to share his best playthlngs with his little comrades.
 One day Arthur was invited to go to . picnic in the woods and he asked ms mamma to put his top into the nttie play-box he always carried with nm when going to picnic. T may want to show it to some of the boys who haven't seen it," he explained.
 At the picnic grounds the top which was an unusually large one proved the centre of attraction ana furnished much amusement to group of boys Arthur's own size. They found a fine place to spin it on the top of a great fiat rock which spread itself like table beneath a fine tree.
 Several boys wanted to "swap things to Arthur for the top, which Arthur called by the name of Master Spinner" But Arthur shook his head. saying: "No. wouldn't trade off Mas ter Spinner. for papa gave him to me. aaways keep the presents papa and mamma are good enough tp present me with"

Maybe the) fairy she felt, and that was the same sa words. So Kathleen ran towards tho woman who worked In the vineyard and cried out to her: You. are mH good Aunt Rebeora, my mothers sis-s ter.

 A few minutes later the astonishef1 peasant woman, who in truth wasi Kathleen's Aunt Rebecca. was sitting, with her little niece on her knee ana listening to the child's strange ste After Kathleen had finished she' ged her very tightly, saying:
 T was thinking of your dear moth CT only last night and longing for news of her. And here comes ,he little girl to bring 1t me. But in one way 1t Is sad news--that 1 shall have. my sister no more. But shall have: her little girl for my own child ana shall love ana cherish her always" "But isn't it wonderful how tho me hither?" asked Kathleen.

 And Kathleen whispered: Maybe we should help the fairy, and 1t would happen all the sooner"

bed time and Kathleen should say her prayer. So she said her little prayer, as 1t had been taught her by her dear mother. Then she added something to the usual prayer. She prayed that a good fairy might be sent to her there in that terrible place. She had great faith in fairies, and knew that one could enter through solid rock or iron, if need be.
 After finishing her prayer Kathleen got up and went about the cave to examine 1t, hoping to find a window or door leading into the open. But the walls were solid and without an opening save the door through which she had entered and which was se- curely fastened from the outside. No hope of getting out that way.
 But somehow since saying her prayer Kathleen's heart had become quite light. and hope sprang up with in her breast. She felt her prayer would be answered.
