 'Of course, Silly, put in Jack, with his You can't tell me anything" air, as Aunt Dolly called it. You know this is called The Fairy's Garden" It had been a lovely day for their picnic, and luncheon over, they were all seated on the grass round Aunt Dolly, who had been telling them how the pretty spot got it's name.

 Ida, their cousin. was all of four teen, and a thoughtful girl besides, so she had been entrusted to take the two younger ones to the summer home of their parents in the mountains. The rest had all gone and the only thing that was keeping the three was Joe's teeth, which were being strengthened and needed a certain kind of brace which wasn't ready when expected.
 The dentist put in the brace at last and everything was packed and ready. Ida came down the front stairs with her hat in her hand. She stopped still and looked hard at something in Myrtle's arms.
 ''It's-it's MogIi," confessed the lit tie girl. ''I dressed him up in Dolly Maybelle's clothes"

 ''There're some of Susie's outgrown dresses in the big trunk in the store room." suggested Myrtle. '"They're long dresses and would cover him all up And there's a long cape with a hood fastened to it which would cover up his face"

 Emperor Napoleon, after one of his great battles. gathered the remnant of his forces around him, and proceeded to compliment them in his character istic mailer, so endearing to the hearts of his soldiers. Finally Com pany D, of the Guards who had been in the thick of the fight, were ordered to present themselves, and to the astonishment of the Emperor a single soldier appeared. He was bound up in bandages and could barely walk.
 Where is the rest of your com pany?" asked the Emperor.
 A tear welled in the old soldiers eye as he answered, Your Majesty, they lie on the field dead" and then woefully added, ''They fought better than I.''

 "Oh," cried Betty, jumping up with a gasp.
 "You'l see stranger things than that said Fairy Wish. But come. Are you ready. She struck the stone Betty had been sitting on with her wand. It opened, and there was a tiny entrance to a beautiful pathway, with walls of lovely flowers on each side.
 T could never get in there." cried Betty ruefulIy. I'm too big"
 Look at yourself" said the fairy, and a mirror suddenly appeared be- fore her, and she saw the reflection of a second dainty little figure, wings and all, only her dress did not sparkle like the Fairy's.
 "Is that really me-" she cried in sur prise.
 "It really is." answered the Fairy Wish, smiling. "Now hurry, or we shall be late"
 Off she flew. and Betty followed, for she found no difficulty in flying after her.
 They entered an immense hall. also brilliantly lit. and Betty's eyes were quite dazzled. As she got used to it she saw crowds of the tiny sprites,
 At one end of the hall was a raised platform of different colored grasses resembling a handsome rug. On this were two messy green thrones, dec orated with tiny lights. that outlined their shapes.
 Here they come," whispered Fairy Wish. as the great doors were thrown open and the company formed two lines down the sides, leaving the cen ter vacant. First came a number of little fairies dressed in gold, with golden wings. then hower-fairies in

Ida ran to get the tickets. Some one tapped Myrtle on the shoulder.
 Be careful with that baby, little girl" said a voice. "You might smother it holding it so tight Here, let me hold it for you till your mother gets back"
 "Oh, no thank you," she exclaimed. "He-he'd cry"
 Shy, is he?" and the motherly lady peered at the little bundle.
 Excuse me, I have to go,' said Myrtle, hurrying away after Ida, who stood waiting her turn at the ticket window.

NEGRO IS JAILED
ON THE CHARGE Of .
WRECK|NC 4 TRAIN

MACON, Ga. Feb. 24.-Alleged to
have Intentionally caused the wreck
of Southern passenger train No. g.,
February Is, at Bonaire, Ga, and in
SO doing to have endangered the
lives of more than a hundred passen-
gers with revenge as his motive,
James Dumas, negro, was arrested
and placed in Jail at Perry, late
Wednesday afternoon by Special
Agent w. l.. Eagle, of the Southern
railway, and his assistant, o. T.
Hill.
Dumas is charged with throwing
the switch that caused the train to
plunge from it's regular course into
siding where it crashed into two
empty box cars. 1t was considered
miraculous that no one was injured
by the collision. The only damage
done was the complete destruction
of the freight cars and damage sus-
tanned by the engine.
The train, which was enroute from
Atlanta to Jacksonville, was delayed
about five hours by the wreck.
Dumas, it is said, at the time of
the wreck had been liberated from
the Bibb county Jail only a few
hours. He had been arrested several
days prior to that time charged with
stealing a ride on Southern railway
freight train. The arrest for hobo
ing was made by one of the officers
of Mr.. Eagles department, and it is
thought by the authorities that the
negro's alleged effort to wreck the
passenger train resulted from a de-
sire to revenge himself upon the rail
road,

Solves the Problem

WHEELING. w. Va. Feb. 25.-So-
luton Of the problem of squaring
the circle, which has haffled the
world for ages, is claimed here by
Joseph Leiner, sixty-two-year-ol
architect and engineer. Mr.. Leiner,
who has worked on the problem for
forty years, says he has completed
his solution and will make apolica-
ton for a Nobel prize. Astronomy.
according to Mr.. Leiner, will benefit
more than any other thing by the
solution.
'It means that astronomy will be
revolutionized," he said. 1T will en-
able astronomers to ascertain if their
calculations as to the nearness Of
Mars ANDY other planets are correct
Heretofore the aStronomiStS who
have figured under the present math-
ematical system were not able to say
to a certainty the exact distance be-
tween the earth and other planets.
Now they will be able to do this
1t will remove stumbling Blocks"
1t also means establishment of a
new law in mathematics, he said.
The solution, Mr.. Leiner said, will
bring no concrete benefit to engi-
ueering.
For one thing it will save millions

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Program

Daugherty, Mr.. Harding's chief lieu

ing that his mission in Washington
is one of conference on the legislative
program for the coming session of
congress.
The Pie counter" will not open
until after the administration has
actually gone to work. Mr.. Daugherty
made plain. One of the essential ap-
pointments, which must be made to
start the new government function
ing will be taken care of imnedi-
ately, he said.
What the country wants and ex-
poets is some relief and some sub
stantial progress towards correcting
conditions the people expect to be
corrected as a result of the Novem
Der election" said Mr.. Daugherty.
"The first effort of the new admin
istration will be directed towards
that. Program will take precedence
over everything else. Appointments
which can be deferred will be-"
Mr.. Daugherty thus assumed the
position of spokesman for the Hard

day he expected to see Senators Pen

Mr.. Harding intends to have series

committees on congress may be called
in, Mr.. Daugherty SAID.
"This will all be done before ap-'
pointments are made" he repeated.
'Mr. Harding's whole idea is one OF
instant and constant cooperation
with congress and the departments

After the cabinet appointments are

of policies. He did not know, he
stated, how far Mr.. Harding will go
in outlining his program in his in
augural speech.
April 4, Mr. Daugherty states,
probably will be the date of the spe-
cial session. The senate, he pre-
dicted, probably will remain in con-
tinuous session from March until
