he thought the heap of treasure was
nothing but a trash pile, just then he
perceived the old brass buckle sticking
out of little Sduank's pocket.
"Ah! you have hidden the treasure"
he cried, and snatched out the buckle.
oh! please do not take that" cried
little squank. III you will only let
fairies have hidden lots of things"
Very WE'LL" said the chief. Where
did they hide the treasurer
Why, Brighteyes hid something UNI
der the Toseleaf mattress, and Silver
toes hid something shiny in her almond
shell bureau" and cunning Squank went
on and told the chief where the fairies
had hidden all the worthless things.
"Ha, ha!' laughed the chief, and sent
his COLLINS scattering everywhere 10

the old trash found, old pieces of glass
and pieces of tin and doll legs. that
they had found hidden, while the
fairies followed, weeping bitterly. And
the COLLINS were all delighted. because
they thought they had found the hid
den treasures.
Now, give me back my buckle" said
Squank.
oh. think will keep that. too
said the chief, because il must be
very precious If yeu think so much of
IT," And he took the old brass buckle
for himself and went away with all his
COLLINS with their old trash. delighted
that they had gotten all the fairies
treasure. Then Squank gathered up the
real treasure and put IL back in its box.
What smart littH Squank you are"
cried all the fairies. I'VE will make
you a prince"

wouldn't make me any happier or
wiser"
So Squank stayed just a good little
