he found that he was by no means the
first guest to arrive.
The Wiry-Wriggler sat close to the
trunk of the Here-and-There Tree, with
a tea-cloth spread before him, on
which stood a large fagon of hot milk
and some saucers; and all his guests
sat in half-circIe round the cloth.
Next to the Why Wriggler on one side
was the Winkle-Wee, who lived in a
scuttle in a distant corner of Cuckoo
Common, and was covered over with
spikes like hedgehog. On the
other side of the Wiry- Wriggler
was the Bergman, in his splash

rain. There were many other guests:

been boiled for three nights and three
days"
THAT is quite a simple affair" said
the Beggar-Boy, for I know where
can find a pink pebble and some lin
seed. But what will you do, my Wiry-
Wriggler. while the water boils for
three nights and three days?"
Then the Wriggler wept again;
and he said, 'I daresay the Cinder-
Witch has some pink-pebble-water in
a jar in her cupboard; but no doubt
she will not give us any. nj --- z--
THAT remains to be SEEM said the
Beggar-Boy; and he set off at once for
the Cinder- Witch's dwelling.
The Cinder-Witch lived under the
Other-Tree, and three of her cupboard
shelves were full Of jars of water.
When she heard what the Beggar-
Boys errand was she laughed till she
cried. Then she said, 'It is quite true
that have a jarful Of pink-pebble-
water; but if you wish to have it, you
must pay the prise
What is the price," asked the Beg
gar-Boy.
The Cinder-Witch was as angry as
angry because the Wiry-Wriggler had
given a party on her birthday and had
not invited her; and she replied: 1.-THE
price is six currant loavesf and one tall
flagon full of milk" And though the
Beggar-Boy pleaded and pleaded, she
would not say another word.
The Beggar-Boy went back to the
Wiry- wriggler, and told him what the
Cinder-Witcf's price was. And the
Wiry- Wriggler wept and wept, and so
did all the guests; and they cried
everyone, "Oh, how very much we wish
we had not eaten all the Beggar-Boy's

over the f1agon of milk!'

If each wave as 1t broke were turned

IF I could be Fairy Queen
I'd weave a thousand magic spells!
I'd learn the language Of the birds,
The secrets of the heather bells,
That chime in silvery music sweet
Upon the sunlit purple fells.
I'd travel with the drowsy sun
Beneath the waves, as daylight dies,
And cross the rainbow-bridge that
spans
The changing showery April skies;
I'd sleep in beds of scended thyme.
While brown bees hummed me lula

I'd ride upon the rushing wind,
Or with the golden sunbeams stray,
Ger hill and dale, by marsh and glen,
Through all the long bright summer
day.
Or travel in a pearly shell
Across the waves and far away!
I'd dance by moonlight on the green.
And make the grass fresher hue,
I'd feast on stores OF sweetest fruit,
And sup the roses crystal dew;
Oh! how delightful it would be
If only fairy tales were truel

How the Witch Cot Even

0NE day as the v-wriggler was
crawling across Cuckoo Common,
he noticed that the door of the
Beggar-Boy's house lay open. So he
wriggled close. and looked inside.
Then he saw that the door of the
Beggar-Boy's cupboard was also open,
and In It were six currant loaves all
crisp and brown. When the Why
Wrtggler had noticed the currant
loaves he wriggled away.
But he did not pursue his way to the
house OF the Goose Wife. Instead. he
FASTENED home TO his hole. And he
sat in his hole, quite still and quiet,
listening, listening, with his hard, long
tail hanging out, so that folks might
know he was at home.
At last he heard footsteps, and they
seemed to him to go thud-thud, thud-
thud, thud-thud; and he knew that the
Beggar-Boy was passing by on his way
to his house, which was not far from
the house OF the Cinder-Witch and the
box in which the Cuckoo lived.
The Beggar-Boy was quite the heav-
lest person OF Cuckoo Common; so, OF
course. his steps were the heaviest
steps.
The -Wriggler listened to the
steps for moment, then he poked out
his head; and the Beggar-Boy was
Just passing his hole.
"Good day. Beggar-Boy," said the
Wiry-Wriggler.
Good day. neighbor," said the Beg
gar-Boy.
The wiry-wriggler considered Then
he said, This afternoon am giving a
birthday party. Pray be one Of the
company. and have draught Of milk
and some currant cake"
Whose birthday is it?" asked the
Beggar-Boy.
Then he said, ''I think it is the Cinder-
witchss birthday, but she is not one
of the guests invited, for she did not
invite, me to her last party"
The Beggar-Boy said he would come
TO the party.
THAT is a good thing" said the Wiry-
Wriggler. Nov remember, Beggar-
Boy, that the custom is for each guest
to bring with him something nice to
cat. And the more he brings the bet
GER. for 1t is pleasant to have plenty"
The Beggar-Boy considered, and at
ter a moment he said, ALIAS, I have
nothing but currant loavegg'
"Six currant loaves viii do very
WELL" said the Wiry-wriggler. "And
be sure you come early. so that every
one may have some. And let me tell
you, the party win not be held in my
hole, which is rather small for large
company, but under the Here-and-
There Tree, who has promised to stand
quite still between my hole and This
Tree, SO that we may feast under his
branches"
When he had heard this speech the
Beggar-Boy went home to his house,
and he was very thoughtful; for he re-
membered that he had exactly six cur
rant loaves In his cupboard, and when
he had taken them to the Wiry-wrig-
gler's party he would have nothing left.
Now there are three trees that grow
on Cuckoo Common: This-Tree. and
That-Tree. and the Other-Tree; and
each OF them has a little house under
its branches. Under This-Tree lives

$3.50 the gnome, with his shoe-laces
hanging: and the Wonder-Whether,
who had long, long ears; and three Of
the otter Rabbits; and the old Eve;
and the Be-Better Goblin, who was al
ways meaning to be good; and the Too
Tippety, who ran on three legs and
lived under a bush.
When the guests caught sight Of the
Beggar-Boy they all cried, 'Hurrah,
.hurrah" and the Beggar-Boy felt quite
pleased to think he was to be in such
polite company.
So he het down his basket with the
six loaves in it; and the Wiry-Wriggler
said, 81 am so glad you have arrived,
for we have decided to eat your deli
cicus currant loaves first. Pray sit
next to the Be-Better Goblin, who is

But the Here-and-There Tree is not
the kind OF tree that grows. He rushes
about here and there, just where he
pleases. No little house has been built
under his branches, and that is just as
well.

He's greater than the generals,
The captains, and the rest;
He marches more majestically
And is far better dressed.
So when I'm big and strong and tall
I'll wear the bearskin hat;
I'll look to be full eight feet high
And maybe more than that.
