THE TALKING ROSES.

- HE Princess Ruby lived in a
beautiful marble castle all by
herself, but just at the end Of
her park gates was the palace
In which dwelt her parents, the king
and queen, for Ruby was the only child
and was being trained to rule the land
when her father died.
She had court all her own. and
great stables OF ponies. and all about
were dozens OF servants in crimson
velvet liveres, pages and maids. She
was fed and waited on and fattered till
she really thought herself very su-
perior sort OF girl, for no one told her
the truth
The court ladies' told her she was as
fair as the rising sun, and the mobiles
of the palace praised her learning and
everything she did. Only one little
serving maid told her the truth. for
she really loved the princess. who was
being rapidly made silly girl by the
flatterers who surrounded her. But
this truthful little maid was put to
work In the kitchen, for the princess
thought her very rude and unkind.
"Oh! ] wish some one would let her
see the facts about life," said the little
maid Guda as she bent over the soup
pot. "for Ruby is good girl at heart
and will make a good queen II the fool
ish people here at court do not turn her
head"
So kind little Gcda went out unoer
n big rose bush and wept about her
troubles. talking aloud to herself all
the while. Now 1t happened that this
bush was a magic one and the roses
| understood all they heard. They even
possessed the power OF speech, but no
one could understand them unless
their ears had been touched by the
rose leaves. So Guda did not know
that the roses heard all she said and
that they began whispering about It
among themselves.
The next afternoon the princess
went walking in the garden alone. II
