n. OW this did not sound very en-
nj couraging to, Wong. He did not
like the idea Of tanning a wild
=. seahorse. for he had spent his
life On boat. But the boy was brave,
and determined as he had come so far
on the trip not to stop.

lowed till they got TO big dark hole

Wong could see a strange looking thing
with the body Of horse. but the head
Of fish. 1t lay curled UP on a bed Of
seaweed and was snoring so loud that II
shook the waves Its skin was soft,

The mermaid fioated back home. and

bottom Of the river. rose to the top Of
the waves. As his head came out he
saw his own boat drifting about in the
moonlight, and Ear down the road, which
ran along the bank, the palace of the
emperor.
Very beautiful il looked in the silver
glow which glinted on the snowy stone
and shimmered on the groves. Out of
the trees rose the tapering top of the
temple, hung all about with bells. But
around it walked the priests and dozens
Of soldiers. So Wong crept through the
bushes on his knees, and when the moon
went under a cloud stole inside the
door. The guard was nodding before the
idol. A gust Of wind suddenly blew a
door shut and the guard rose to see
what was the matter Hardly had he
gotten out OF the room before Wong
seized the enchanted bride which hung
on a golden nail. then flew down the
patch and out into the road again as
fast as twinkling feet would carry him.
In ten minutes he was on the river bank
again, just over the Crystal caverns.
Hiding the bride in his shirt, he put the
leaf of betel in his lips, clasped his
hands behind his back and dived down
to the bottom of the river. Here floated
the mermaid waiting for him.
II have the bridle,'' he cried joyfully.
That's fine" exclaimed the mermaid.
The only trouble now is to get it on
the horse without waking him."
Wong knew 1t was growing late and
that II the dawn came while he was
under the water, he would be drowned.
So he ran as fast as he could to the
dark hole where the seahorse slept
Here he crept quietly into the cave.
The horse moved. as II about to wake.
Jumping forward. the lad landed on the
animals neck. and slipped the bride
over its head in the twinkling Of an eye.
The seahorse rose to its feet, but no

head against the boys hand. So Wong
jumped on its back and rode 1t back
