ways bent on mischief, and they would
lie In wait for the fairies at night and
then jump out from behind stones and
trees to frighten them
One night they frightened one fairy
so that she dropped her wand and ran.
OF course she was quite poweriess with

woods vainly trying TO find her mates.
After while the fairy queen dis
covered her and took her home In her
little carriage.
The next night the queen called a
meeting. Something must be DONE" she
said, ito put an end to the pranks of
these goblins."
IF we could only see," said one fairy,
they could not jump upon us so sud-
denly. 1t Is only because they startle
us that we are afraid of them.
IF we had a light on the end Of our
wands," said another, "but that would
not be bright enough; what we need is
to have lights all through the woods
and fields"
''If some of the bugs would carry Ian
terms and be of some use," said another.
instead Of flying about in such a use
less fashion, II would be easy to have
our way lighted"
There are all those little brownish
flies with red marks on their bodies. {"
said another fairy, they fly about SO
slowly that we are always humping into
them, they could carry the lanterns
and we would always have lights, for
those flies are everywhere.

The Correct Place
To Hang Pictures

Many people make the mistake of
thinking that a good picture will look
well in any place and in any style Of
frame.
Others recognize the fact that fruit
pictures look well only IN the dining
room. and that pictures of authors be-
are kept.
Even when the subject of the picture
Is in accord with the room. such par
ticulars as the angle at which the light
will strike the picture, the height to
hang II, the background and the kind of
frame must be considered.
Few pictures can be shown to advan-
tage against a large Powered, highly
colored wall paper.

tronted her at the point of revolver.
she forced Miss Spencer TO admit that
Jules was really Tom jackson, her hus-

gained consciousness she was on the deck
