but the princess sulked, grew thin and
unhappy, so at last he consented to
proclaim throughout the kingdom that
he would give any reward asked to the
one who would accomplish what the
princess desired.
Knut heard of the announcement
made by the king. AS he sat in his
hut and played the flute he thought
of the lovely princess whom he had
met. And he wished with all his
heart that he could earn the reward,
for what he would ask would be not
gold, but her hand.
Out in his backyard there was
puddle of dark water which had
drained down from some wood shaw
ings. And into it had fallen some
weeks before a bit Of sheepskin, and
there it had lain undisturbed. Knut
picked it up. 1t was smooth and not
at all like the fresh skin.
He patted and dried and smoothed
the skin, having first washed off the
woolly side with hot water and soap.
Then he rubbed the skin with a sweet
oil till it was soft and plant. Before
him in the damp sand he saw the
print of his foot.
81 will make a covering for the
princess foot of this skim" he said
aloud. II will have the wool turned
inside. having first dyed it a golden
hue. That will keep her feet warm
and prevent rocks from hurting her.
And this outside skin will wear against
the ground and stones"
SO, first dyeing the wool a lively
yellow, he wrought with his bone
needle a lovely pair of shoes. The
skin, which was now leather, was on
the outside. On the inside was the
clean wool, a beautiful golden tint.
The next day he went to the palace
and presented them to the princess.
''Put these on your feet" he said,
then you can run about over stones
and dirt without being hurt. Your
road through life will be a golden one;
every step you take you will tread on
golden SOftness."
The delighted princess ran to show
the king her present, and in few
days the lad had orders to make leath-
er shoes for the king and court. Then
the whole nation got shoes. The
princess welded Knut, who had asked
for her hand, and at the feast she
wore her first golden shoes.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1920-02-06

Due to the big storm, the shipping
of coal from the docks in this city
and vicinity has been greatly handi-
capped. Not only has the snow stop
ped the working of the switches which
are used in running the cars on the
bumpers, but the drifts have covered
the rails to such an extent that it has
been almost impossible to move the
trains. The ice in the bay and sound
also has interferred somewhat with
the operating of the tows which trans
port the coal to New York and New
England.
Lehigh Valley Docks
At the Lehigh Valley Dock 1t was
tied UP yesterday, it had been found
possible to begin loading barges with
coal again today. Considerable
trouble was experienced in getting the
switches clear of snow. The work OF
loading the coal is going on slowly.
Pennsylvania Docks
Nothing was shipped from the
pennsylvania docks in South Amboy
yesterday or today, but it was said
that the tracks would be cleared late
this afternoon so that the shipping g
of coal could go on as usual.
Port Reading Docks.
IL was said that although the snow
mad interfered greatly with the ship
ping of coal from this dock, the COM
pany was able to keep the leaders
busy and that at no time had the
dock been completely tied up. The
work of shipping the coal, however, is
greatly handicapped as the engines
only able. because of the huge snow
drifts. to move five or six cars at a
time and not long trains as is usual.
