sat down to rest.
Suddenly fairy appeared before
her and Dorothy was so astonished
she merely said, "Oh!"
"The treasure lies far from here
said the fairy, ''but | will call one of
our horses and he will take you there"
Then the fairy blew three quivery
little notes on the trumpet flower she
carried in her hand and right then a
great butterfly with gorgeous yellow
wings came f1uttering down and stood
waving it's long feelers up and down
like it was trying to say, "Howdy do?"
Jump on his back!" cried the fairy
Dorothy did so and away they went,
flying until they came to hidden spot
where a huge number of fairies were
as busy as could be piling up queer
little bags of gold. In their midst
stood the queen. of the fairies with her
golden wand, showing them just what
to do. When she saw Dorothy she
came up to where the yellow butterfly
had lit and helped her off, for fairies
are polite, you know. Then she said
to her:
Welcome to the foot of the rain
bow. Dorothy. Here is the gold you
were running SO hard to get. Help
Yourself
Dorothy was so anxious to get the
gold that she didn't pay the least at
tention to the Queen, but started gath
ering. her arms full of the little sacks.
Now, the fairies were very angry
with Dorothys r1deness after all their
kindness to her.

the Queen. wait until she has filled
her arms with the gold and then take
her back to her own door by the fairy
road, and then change the gold in the
sacks to pebbles, unless she thanks
you for taking her home"
So when Dorothy had filled her arms
full the fairies picked her up, and the
next morning she was standing in
front of her own door, for no one ever
remembers the@road the fairies take
them. And she did not think a mo-
ment to thank the fairies, but ran in
the house with her arms full of the
little sacks, andseried out:

ma will murmur into the ear of her
harassed offspring; or, Isn't it unfer-
tunate that dear Mary should dress in
that odd fashion, and a hundred and
one other observations of similar
character. Little remarks of this sort
can do much to cause the rift in the
matrimonial lutte. They sow the seed
of dissatisfaction, and the more the
young husband cares for his mother,
the more then will her opinion weigh
with him.
The average set of relations-in-law do
seem somehow to maintain a criticai
attitude. In the general run of things
this attitude can hardly be given such
strong term as antagonistic, but ali
the same it is not conducive to max

finally had the unpleasant realization
borne in upon her that she was un.
wanted by and unnecessary to the
man of her choice and her lawful hus-
band. All efforts on her part to effect
reconciliation were futile-hence
the filing of the 100000 damage suit.
Relations-in-law really can be try
ing proposition, and many a young
bride finds the matrimonial pathway
made considerably harder than 1t
need ever be through their impertl-
'nent and officious interference. The
old saying that

wife,

is not always quite true. For too
often the sons mother is firmly con-
WINGED that she must continue to ar
range that sons private and personal
affairs long, long after the matrimonial
moose has been tied, and she is united
for better or for worse to the girl OF

that his fond mamma nearly always
does believe that the uniting is for
worse"-and she correspondence acts
on that principle. Not single blem-

pointing it out to her son. You real

According to current information in
the daily papers, relations-in-law are
indeed responsible for many, many ups
and downs and many strange vicissi-
tudes in the life matrimonial. While
apparently being quite we'll equipped
for the engineering of their own af-
fairs, they yet seem to have peculiar
faculty for the tangling and twisting
of other peoples, and recent case
in this connection quite bears the
idea out. Out in Los Angeles bride
of five months has just filed suit for
100000 damages for the alienation of
her husbands affections. She declares
that her husbands parents and sister,
by false and malicious statements,
have caused him to abandon her.
1t apears that at first the marriage
was very happy one, until the bride
groom fell ill with diphtheria. At the
convalescent stage he went to the
home of his parents in order to re-
cuperate, telling his young wife to
follow him on a later train. There
seems to have been some subterfuge
in his mind here, for when the bride
carried out his injunctions and duly
arrived on the scene, she found no
husband there, but instead an irate
and decidedly unpleasant sister-in-law,
who informed her that she was un-
welcome, that her husband was re-
moved from there and that she might
just as well return whence she came

them. They arrived quite safely and
started for here, Craig handcuffed to
one of the Scotland Yard men on the
back seat, and the other in front with
the driver. About half q mile from the
south entrance to the park the road
runs across rather desolate strip of
country with lot of low underground
on one side. We have had a little
trouble with poachers there, as there
is q sort of gypsy camp on some COM
mon land little way away. My head
keeper, to whom the very idea of a,
poacher is intolerable, was patrolling
this ground himself that afternoon and
caught sight Of one of these gypsy
fellows setting trap. He chased him,

thrown out. The man to whom Craig
was handcuffed was stunned, but Craig
himself appears to have been unhurt.

handouts from the pocket of the Off
Ger, undid them and slipped off into
the underground before either the
groom or the other Scotland Yard man
had recovered their senses. To cut
long story short, this was last Thur3-

of the fellow has been discovered"
