THE BIRTH OF a BuTrEEcup

Midsummer night is the happiest
night in all the year for the fairies.
It is then they have their greatest
banquet and merriest frolic. Other
nights they NAV absent themselves if
they so desire. but on this night in
June no fairy ever thinks of staying
away, the fairy queen would never
forgive him If he did.
One Midsummer night they were
feasting in a bea utiful dell and not
even a baby fairy was absent from
his place. They danced their fairy
ring and sang their fairy songs till all
the woods and fields seemed full of
life and music. They ate and drank
with right good will, the dainty feast
provided by thar queen. Indeed, Ii
tania feared that some of the younger
fairies might be i'll and give the doc
tors frequent calls for many a day to
come.
Such a merry time they had that
they quite forgot that fairies must not
be abroad by light of day. While they
