Modern Fairy Tale.

Once upon a time there lived a lady
who had five children and her lips were
as red rs her blood. her brow was as
smooth as wax, her hair as black as coal
and she nenrly always smiled.
When the baby had the collie she gaye

HIS feet and rocked him to sleep and did
not send for trained nurse.
When her husband came home at night
she was beautifully dressed and frAnK.y
enjoyed her dinner. She did not complain
OF nerves nor Of the servants. nor did
she say that her husband a.d not love
her as he did before they we're married
She hardly ever complained at all.
One night after dinner, when her bus.

him back:

Every one seemed profoundly i'm

hysterie desire to laugh. Quickly she took
a gulp Of tea from the cup in her hand
and then almost strangled.
Now the music had settled down Into
steady, thunderous stampede. The pro-

the shaggy locks a-waye, was working

murmurs Of How exquisite! What per-
