Not finding any trace of the van
quished prince, Adele determined to
go seek him, even IL the journey took
her to the ends of the earth. So at
noon the next day she set out alone.
wearing a gray cloak and using a
pilgrims staff.
For many nights and days she wan
dered over hills and valleys, crossing
rivers and climbing mountains. But
no word of the prince could she hear.
Sometimes fine deer would dart
past her but his flight was too rapid
for seeing him clearly. This deer was
the prince In reality. but he was
afraid to pause in his flight, and also
knew that the princess would not
dream who it was in that shape.
At last when a year was up the
princess gave up all hope, and thought
she would return home to die. She
was very weary and knew that she
would not live long under such sor-
row, so with heavy heart she took
her way once more to her fathers
castle.
BY noon she stopped almost fainting
at the hut of the same old hag that
had made the magic potion Tor the
cousin. The hag invited the princess
in. for she saw the sillten robes under
the gray cloak and knew that this
was a lady of high degree.
Come in, dear" she said sweetly,
"and rest. | will make you fine
broth and give you a drink OF wlne.
So, half-dead, Adele went into the
hut. When she threw off her cloak
the hag saw it was the princess her
self.
Il am very old and poor" she said;
"is there nothing you can give meY'
Now Adele was kind hearted and,
taking up her purse, she poured out
all the gold 1t held on the table.
Take that" she said, wearily. II
will soon be beyond the need Of gold.
"Why, what is the trouble, child 2"
asked the hag, whose stony heart
was touched by Adele's generosity.
Tell me, and maybe | can help you.
have great power and perhaps
can help you" The pale face ana
sweet manners of the princess made
even this creature warm to her in her
trouble. so Adele poured out the
whole story.
"Oh, ho!" exclaimed the hag. $50
that is what the lady wanted a. year
ago with my magic potion; she was
up to some of her wicked tricks. |
raye not forgotten how she tricled
me out of my money" And then she
related TO Adele how the cousin had
gotten the fatal liquid with which to
change the prince into deer.
But | will repay her in full, gentle
lady; do not think ! am to be Kept
out Of my revenge" said the hag,
as she called to her an owl that was
sleeping on a branch of tree out
side the window.
"Go find the prince in the shape of
a deer and chase him here" she com
manded as the owl tapped away.
THAT wicked cousin of yours walks
every evening past the Gray Rock, "
said the hag. Hide there at sunset
and you will see a joyous sight. But
take nap now and will call you
in time"

Apple and peach tree fruited deep,
Fair as a garden of the Lord
To the eyes of the famished rebel
horde,
On that pleasant morn OF the early
fall,
When Lee marched over the nouns
tain wall
Over the mountains winding down.
Horse and foot into Frederick town.
Forty flags with their silver stars,
Forty flags with their crimson bars,
Flapped in the morning wind: the
OF noon looked down and saw not
one.
Up rose old Barbara Frietchie then.
Bowed with her fourscore years and
ten:
Bravest of all in Frederick town.
She took up the flag the men hauled
down:
Ia her attic window tho staff she set,
TO show that one heart was loyal yet.
Up the street came the Rebel tread,
Stonewall Jackson riding ahead.
Under his slouched hat left and right
He glanced; the old flag met his
sight.
"Halt!"-the dust-brown ranks stood
fast
"FireP-out blazed the rifle blast.
1t shivered the windows, pane and
sash;
1t rent the banner with seam and
cash.
Quick, as it fell, from the broken
STAFF,
Dame Barbara snatched the silken
scarf.
She leaned far out on the window
sill,
shoot If you must, this old gray
But spare your eountry's flag" she
said.
A shade of sadness, a blush of shame,
over the face of the leader came:
The nobler nature within him stirred
To lifo at that woman's deed and
word.
"Who touches a hair of yon gray
head
Dies like dog! March on" he said.
All day long through Frederick
streets
Sounded the tread of marching feet;
All day long that free flag tost
Over the heads of the rebel host.
! Ever it's torn folds rose and fell
on the loyal winds that loved 1t we'll;
And through the hill-gaps, sunset
light
Shone over it with warm good
night
| Barbara Fretchie's work is Ger,
And the Rebel rides on his raids no
more.
Honor to her! and let tear
Fail, for her sake, on Stonewalls bier.
over Barbara Frietchie's grave
Flag of Freedom and Union wayei
Peace and order and beauty draw
Round the symbol of light and law:
And ever the stars above look down
On thy stars below in Frederick
townl

Velvet Popular

Velvet, velvet, velvet! 1t enters
into a vast majority of the afternoon
frocks brought over so far, and there
are quantities of handsome velvet
two-piece and three piece costumes.
Panne, chiffon, striped, checked, all
sorts of velvets. are in evidence and
all sorts of other materials from
chiffon to cloth, are striped or
checked or figured in velvet.
The idea of making at least the up
per part of the bodice of a velvet
frock in some lighter weight material
counts too much for comfort to be
lightly discarded, and it is the excep-
tional velvet frock that does not
make use of it, even at the risk of
losing novelty.

Even on the Mountain Top.

Smith lived in neighborhood where
there were many pianos, monographs,
barky dogs and sweet children, and,
finding that sleep was impossible, he
began to look around for a quiet re-
treat. Finally he found it on the top
Of a mountain, and great was his
happiness.
One day, however, he appeared in
town looking extremely sad, and his
friends quickly questioned him as to
the cause.
TITS no use, boys" he responded in
a detected voice. at is simply a
waste of time to fight the inevitable" "
Yesterday a young man came up
on the mountain" explained Smith,
"and pitched a tent near my bunga-
low. This morning he told me that
he was going to spend the summer
there learning to play the violin."-

Princess Frocks

The courturiers are making princess
frocks, some of which are not en-
tirely tight-iitting, with pinched-in
waist lines and back fastenings. Many
of these models are exploited in light
weight broadcloth, gabardines, serge
and chiffon velvet. Serge and gabar-
dine have tenacious hold on
fashions fancy, and every new COM
bination for the one-piece frock is
dark Blue gabardine and sulphur taf-
feta.
With one-piece frocks of black
cloth, which smart Parisiennes are
wearing at the present time, the only
relieving bit of color used is single
white rose. The basques of these
models are comfortably fitted and un-
trimmed, while the skirts are wide
and flaring

Dear Miss Doom:
Please print in your interesting
column the directions for cleaning
a brass bedstead. HOUSEWIFE.
There are many excellent polishes
on the market. A preliminary rub
bing with kerosene will hasten the
action of all of them. If brass or
copper are very badly tarnished or
blackened remove the stain with
oxalic acid. or vinegar and salt. Dip
a wooden cloth i'm a strong solution,
and rub with a dry cloth at once.
When clean rub with a clean cloth
dipped in water and dry. Then rub
with whiting or any good silver
polish, to keep from retarnishing.
