As the clock in the town struck /
the beautiful girl became bitterly
again and the Prince rode away.
The King was so taken up with what
he had sen that he forgot he was to
get back to the cave of the old witch
before daylight, and so he had to re.
main a freely all day, and that night
he beheld the strange dance Of the
butterflies again.
When the beautiful girl appeared at
midnight the King forgot he was a
freely, and flew to where the Prince
and the girl stood.
Marry her, my son." he said to the
Prince, "and we will find out soon the
spell that holds her and break it,"
OF course, the Prince and the girl
saw nothing but the Rref1y, and they
wondered who could have spoken. =
"It sounded like my fathers voice. .
said the Prince, "but that, Of course,
is impossible; he could never find his
way in here; besides that, he would
not understand"
But the King FREELY had remembered
the witch and the hour this time, and
was flying fast to her.
Give me more gold,' demanded the
witch, "or FREELY you will remain the
rest of your life."
How he was to get gold unless he
could again be King he did not
know, and the hour of l o'clock struck
and he was still FREELY.
The next night at midnight the King
firefy was still at the witch's cave,
and he did not have the gold, but a
fairy touched him as he flew about
and told him to follow her.
Il cannot change you back to your
own shape because you went to the
witch after we had promised to help
you, but at the hour of be by the
cave and you will have the gold"
Back flew the King firefy to the
cave of the old witch, and as the clock
struck one, the old witch appeared and
at the same time the stones in front
of the cave turned to gold.
When the witch saw this she
laughed and danced with Joy. Behold
the Kingl" she said, striking at King
iirefy with her cane.
| The King was very glad to be him
self again, and without saying a word
to the witch he hurried away to his
palace.

'BEDTIMESTORIES
FOR LITTLE
FOLKS
THE BUTTERFLY BRIDE.

Once upon a time there was a king
who had a son and he wanted the
Prince to marry while he was yet
alive, because he wished to die happy
in the knowledge that his son had a
good wife for his Queen.
But the Prince was in no hurry to
marry, and he would not choose e
wife, SO the King went to the fairies
for help and the Quen told him that
If he would trust all to her and the
fairy helpers she would promise him
that his son would choose wife very
soon.
/ But the King became impatient after
a while and went to the fairy Queen
again. "You must wait" the Queen
told the King. Even now your son
is in love, and if you will but trust us
you will soon have daugther-in-law
that will make your old age happy"
So the King went home and set one
of his servants to watch the Prince,
for the King was anxious to know with
whom the Prince was in love.
"There is one strange thing that
happens every day." said the servant;
"a beautiful butterfly of gorgeous col
ors flies into the window Of the
Princes room, and he is very angry
if anyone happens to close it. He has
given orders that the window is to be
left open, no matter what the wealth
er is.''
One night the King went to an old
witch in the woods and asked her to
change him into FREELY that he might
follow his son and see where he went
late at night
So for bag of gold and a gold col
lar for her black cat the old witch
promised to give the King a pill that
would change him into firely and
then he was to come to her to be
changed into his own shape again.
The next night when the Prince
started out the King swallowed the pill
and became a FREELY and followed his
son.
He went deep into the forest and by
and by the King or the FREELY saw a
bright light, and when ne came near
TO it he saw that hundreds of firefiies
had gathered around bossy place in
a dell, where hundreds of beautiful
butterflies were having dance. The
Prince rode up to the dancing grouI
and the largest and most beautiful OF
the butterflies flew toward him and
lighted on his cheek.
Then the King FREELY saw very
queer thing happen. The fiddlers
which were grasshoppers, began theii
music and the Prince began to dance
The large butterfly was his partner
and she spread her wings wide ant
