Rackham Paints the Pixies

she was gone there would be no more
beauty left in the world
There was the Carl. who never
combs his hair. as a body can see with
half an eye, in the picture. But he is
a mighty carrier of wood though
selfish.
iii build a house myself" said the
Carl land the man who does not help
in the building can stay outside the
house" SO he cut and carried under
his two arms twentyfour couples of
big timber and enough rushes for a
bed.
Certainly it is a delight 70 read sucn
grand, big stories in such grand, big
type. The Brothers Grimm got theirs
out of old wives fables and old books,
and Brother Stephens, in his later day,
must have got some such help, for
it's against nature for any one man,
be he ever so wise, TO get the knowl-
edge of the unknowable all out OF his
own head. And he must have heard
unbeknownst. or else asked somebody
about Tuan MacCairill and Fionn and
Bran and Oisn and Becfola and the
rest. But Rackham asked Nobody.
The colored pictures are good. but
some of the freest and merriest are
the little pen drawings. OF course. IT

blue for certain skies and the dress of
Mother Gothel climbing up the rope
of Rapunzers hair-and the blue is
there.
In the other Grimm volume the first
picture shows little Snow White, like
her name. a crystal Wilderness in the
grotesque setting of the old dwarfs.
Always each picture faithfully tells its
story of fairyland. and at the same
time gives pleasure as a composition.
There is the Prince at the edge of the
pool. with typical background OF
birches, his royal legs blending with
the no less royal reeds. through which
he walks. Clever Hans and the three
dogs romp across two pages. The

OLD FRENCH FAIRY TALES. by
Comte de Segur. Illustrated by Vir-

Is there prophecy in to-day's fairy

fairy tales of yesterday are the COM

came to Blondine-in her sleep. And
since the psychologists trace every
thing to- dreams nowadays. that APP
pears to be the logical place to begin
teaching.
Blondine had the good luck TO fall
into the hands-or rather the paws
and hooves-of a wise cat and an
even wiser doe. She woke one morn
ing with a delightful consciousness OF
having learned all sorts of things. She
asked the doe about It and this was
the answer:
Yes, my dear Blondine. you are IA
years old to-day. But you have slept
peacefully seven years -Minon
and 1 wished to spare you the weari-
ness of all early studies. When you
first entered the castle you knew
nothing; not even how to read. | put
you to sleep for seyen years and Beau
Minon and have passed this time in
instructing you during your sleep"
Blondine tried piano and harp and
drew from them the most ravishing
sounds and she sang enchantingly. She
took her pencil and brushes and drew
and painted with facility which de-
noted a true talent. She wrote and
found her handwriting clear and ele-
CANT. She looked at the countless
books which We're ranged around the
room and knew that she had read
them ALL"
In the last respect Blondine is to be
pitied. For while it is a grand thing
to have a we'll stocked mind-at the
proper age-the fun Of reading, for a
child, is chiefly that of discovery. The
readers of fairy tales like these will

from an old play that there be

elves in the forest and II
a poor man should gain one in the
palm of his hand he should want no
more" But the tales are not told in
archaic words; they race along with
much of the very same spirit and fire
that stirred the fancy Of Edward Lear
and Lewis Carroll. The little book IS
charming, and it's colored pictures ana
decorations drawn by no prentice.

Evening Chat
1he Beloved coward.

ran across the following the other
day and / think 1t so very good !
want to nut it down for you to read:
I'VE went to neighborhood lately
to be at the funeral Of man we had
known when he walked the sunny
highways on which they carried him
to his grave. He was known by ev-
erybody in. the place where he had
spent his life.
"And the thing they said about him
all his life long was that he was
great coward. This man almost too
timid 10 ride in an automobile. If
anyone fired off gun where he was
he would Jump foot high. He
wouldn't pass a graveyard in the dark
fer all tho money in all the banks OF
the state. He believed in ghosts and
he wouldn't kick dog because he
said dogs maybe have souls as men
have.
"Nor was this all. The man would
not step on a worm or a bug in his
pathway. And the worms and the
bugs seemed to know 1t for they never
hurried when he was near. Birds
knew he was a coward and were so
little afraid OF him that they nestled
on his shoulders-the wild birds OF
the air-as they used to nestle in tho
tunic of St. Francis.
"There never was an outlawed cat
10 fear him nor to hesitate to rub
against his leg He was such a COW
ard that a quail would not fly at the
approach OF his footsteps. So one day
he fell i'll and word was sent to US
later that he was dead and we went
over to his funeral. All the people
felt unbelievably sad over the death
of this old coward. Men and women
and children were weeping. The
preacher clicked and could not speak
the words of the funeral sermon. You
could feel the tears in the voices of
the singers who composed the choir.
"Well, it is a grand thing to be
brave man. But. here was coward
who was loved as few brave men have
ever been loved"
Don't you like that? ! knew you
would. y Didn't you choke just lit
tie over the story? did. We never,
know in this world why people are
loved or hated. Sometimes we love
a man or woman for no reason what
ever except that he or she is just
"lovable." He may not be smart or
witty or beautiful or charming. But
we love him so much just the same.
And very very often We Just natur-
ally detest an individual who possess
es everything we think worth fight
ing for-smartness, shrewdness, good
looks, cleverness and few other
things.
