The Beetle and
the Giant

NOE upon time there was a giant
that lived all alone because
~ no one could be friends with
him. He was always in the way if he
tried to go into the homes, and when
he played games he was so strong that
he broke UP the game and everything
in connection with 1t. He could not
wrestle without breaking his oppon-
ent's arm and sometimes his head, and
he was not a very desirable partner in
any game. Gradually all who had
ever known him drew away from him.
and he could not boast of any valor-
Gus deed because no one would be
willing to come near him, and 1t was
no fun doing things all by himself. No
one ever dreamed of plying him, be-
cause they were so afraid of his
strength. The children had been
taught to run to cover when the
ground began to shake, which was al
ways the signal of his approach. So
you can imagine that the giant found
it very lonely in the land of those who
were his friends, or should have been,
to do with his enemies, whose homes
he wrecked. One day as he sat upon
the mountain side he saw very ugly
beetle and would have taken it in his
hands, but he knew that would kill 1t,
What are you doing up here? he
asked.
Il got tired being called the ugli-
est of beetles, and l wandered off by
myself. 1t is lonesome up here, but
that is better than being despised all
the time"
II am lonesome, too" said the giant,
but the fact was that after that the
giant was not so very lonesome, for
he and the beetle had many long talks
about the ways of insects, which the
beetle could tell about, and the ways
of men, as the giant told it. One day
there was a terrible rumbling in the
mountain, and all at once the stone
upon which they rested shook, the
earth parted and into 1t rolled giant
and beetle. They were so held down
that even the giant could not get free
but the giant felt sorry for the beetle,
for he alone of all the world knew that
a BEETLE has feelings and that death
would be to him a pang as keen as 1t
would be to him, and the giant was
glad when another tremor of the earth
brought down more stones upon them
and together they went out of life.

and set about making a healing broth
for 1t.
Let every bird contribute some
thing to the broth, so that the wren
can be made well,' commanded the
raven.
The broth was prepared, every bird
giving something healing.
When the owl came forward to con-
tribute his offering. he very. clumsily
perched himself on the edge of the pot
and upset 1t.
All the broth was spilled and lost,
and so angry were the birds that they
few at the owl, pecked him, pulled out
his feathers and hunted him from the
forest.
He was afraid to go near the birds
again, and this is why the owl only
flies by night when all the other birds
are asleep.

jumping on his horse and trying to
drag him from the saddle.
"Robber Peter, give me my cup.
Never from 1t shall you sup!"
Faster and faster rode Peter. and
the horse was so scared by all the
fairies that jumped on him that he was
as anxious as Peter to escape.
Finally when both Peter and his
horse were almost exhausted he
reached the gate of his little garden,

cleared the gate and reached safety in

Why Stories
WHY PETER TOOK A FAIRY CUP.
Gan English Legend.)

An English Legend.)
nETER was a peasant who lived in
England in the time when every
tree, every mountain was peo-
pied by fairies.
One night Peter was on his way
home, after making a visit to a friend
who lived some distance from him.
He had to pass one of the fairy
mounds, which were quite numerous
in that part of the land where Peter
lived.
AS he drew near to the mound he
heard singing and laughter and merry
voices talking.
AS he came close to the mound he
saw an open door on one side, and on
looking within he was astonished to
see a large AMI beautiful room, bril-
liantly lighted with hundreds of wax
candles and filled with lively little la
dies and gentlemen.
They were seated around little ia
bles, eating and drinking the most de-
licious-looking foods and beverages,
and every now and then breaking
forth into the most beautiful and me-
lodious singing.
Never had Peter seen or heard any
thing so delightful, and he stood al
most like statue watching the little
merry-makers.
Presently they arose and began to
dance, to the most charming music
Peter had ever heard in his whole life,
and unconsciously he moved closer to
the door, until he stood where a
stream Of light shone directly upon
him.
The fairies must have seen him, for
one of them came toward him and
offered him a cup of wine, saying as
she did so:
Welcome, Peter, drink with me
And. all care from thee will fee!"
Peter took the cup, but was afraid
to drink the wine, so he poured it out
instead, but he put the cup in his
pocket.
Instantly he was surrounded by all

A LII the birds entered into con-

At last 1t was decided that whichever
bird should fly the highest, reach the
highest point above the tree-tops
should be the monarch Of them ALL
Accordingly they all began to fly up

Now the little wren, which had as
much ambition as any of the large
birds, knew 1t could not fly very high,
so it perched itself under the wing of
the eagle.
1t was such little bird that the
great eagle never even noticed 1t.
The flight continued. Up, up went

was too tired to rise any higher.
So the wren was acknowledged to be

However. when the birds had all
assembled again in conclave, the wren
accidentally fell and hurt itself.
