anyone on the stand As the Guests
began To come in they all wondered
what it was for.
Take your Partners for the first
Dance cried the Fairy Queen.
And then the Ferns on the Moss
stand began To move, and right out in
the front of the stand stepped the
Fairy Nhab with her orchestra of Fai
ricS and little Wood Creatures. They
were all dressed in gowns of Ferns.
and the Fairy Nbah waved Il long. big
Fern for the others To keep time 10y.
But | must tell you about the cos
tunes. for they were so beautiful. The
Brownies all came wearing little suits
of green and tall green hats. Every
one was So surprised To So" them in
green for. of course they seldom wear
any color hut their favOrite brown.
The Elves wore costumes made of
pine needles. and they made almost
the greatest impression of all. The
Fairies wore every color you can pos
Sibly think of, So Fairyland was ablaZe
with color.
Last of all came the Butterflies In
their very. very best. And you know
the best suits and dresses of the But
TEXTILES are about aS handsome as any
you can find.
They all danced for very long
time until at last the Fairy Queen
called out. Supper is ready, and were
going To have ii around the Throne.
Come gather around"
"AIl the Guests hurried to the Fairy
Queens ThrOne-but before they had
IL chance To get there-all of sud
den-what should they see before them
but tablpS-countlcSs tables which
were nothing else but the T0adStOol
family who had lent themselves for
the occasion.
Around the tables all the Elves
and Brownies. and Fairies sat on still
smaller ToadStOOlS which made excel
lent seats. The Butterflies sat on the
Tablcs-where they were not the least
scrap in the way, and they liked to
filter forth from one TOadStool to an
other and taste the different Flowers.
the Fairy Queen had scattered about.
Eyes, there was delicious Flower
honey for the Butterflies, and every
time they flew from one ToadStool to
another the Fairy Queen would wave
her wand and fresh Flowers would fall
dOwn-juSt like IL storm of Flowers.
"FOr dessert the Butterflies had Won
derful honey from Wild Roses. And
the rest of the guests had all the
goodies they wanted-but at the very
end of the supper, the Fairy Queen
said:
Now for the Grab Bag"
Just then an enormous black Bird
flew down. carrying bag many times
larger than he was. and after dropping
il in Il corner of the wooded grove. he
flew about over il, blowing and putting
for all ne was worth. The Rag seemed
To- get bigger every minute.

and the black Bird stopped blowing
into the Bag. and flew over To Il saucer
of Worms and dish of fresh Water
the Fairy Queen had ready for him
behind her throne.
Then She waved her wand and told
all her Guests To try for the grab bag.
Such fun aS they all had. and they got
marvellous presents out of the Bag.

blood of cholcra-diScaSed animals.
Til" antiChulpra serum which is in
jected into healthy hogs to render
them immune is obtained by taking
naturally immune hog or one which
has recovered from cholera, and in
jccting into its circulation some blood
from Il hog suffering from bad case
of cholera. Outwardly this treatment
affects the immune hog only slightly;
it does not give it cholera. but it
makes the animal still more highly
immune-hyper-imm This hyper
immune hog is then bled several times
from its tail and finally from the
carotid artery which results in the
death of the animal. From the large
amount of blood thus obtained the
anticholera serum is made, and when
this is injected into an ordinary hog
it renders it cholera proof without,
however, affecting the animal. The
immunity lasts only few weeks, but
an interesting and highly important
phase of the work whereby the hog
il made immune against cholera for
the rest of its life consists in the in
lection of some blood from cholera
sick hog.
This double injection, then, keeps
the animal from having hog cholera
and at the same time makes him per-
manently immune. The same results
are affected, if the hog Immediately

serum, is exposed To other hogs suffer
ing from hog cholera. All of which
indicates the fact that Il large amount
of careful experimentation has been
undertaken by the bureau of animal
industry of the department of agri-
culture.
With such Il devastating disease as
hog cholera prevalent throughout the
entire country it follows that many
remedies and of late many hog cholera
SerumS have appeared upon the mar
krt. The frauds and grafters have
rcaped golden harvest through the
sale of their worthless and even dan
gcrouS conCoCtiOnS. In order TO pre-
vent the manufacture and sale of
these fake remedies, Il bill has been
introduced prohibiting the Interstate
shipment of any hog cholera SerumS
which are not approved by the depart
mcnt of agriculture.
