greens have just grown up and they
are so proud that they can see more
than they did last year TINT they are
talking about everything they see."
The first moonlight night that the
Forest Goblins appeared the Great
Trees told them their troubles, and,
though the Gobllns said they could not
help them, they promised to see the
Elves, whose queen was a friend of
the Queen OF the Fairies.
This seemed roundabout way to
the Great Trees to get help, but there
was nothing else to be done and SO
they had TO wait.
The Great Trees had about given up
hope and the evergreens grew more
scornful every day, but one night,
when all was still and the wind was
cold and clustering, little fairy
alighted on the topmost branch
great bare tree. She had ridden to
the forest on the tall of clustering
Wind without his knowing thing
about 1t and as he passed along Off
she jumped.
Il have message for you from
my queen" she whispered to Great
Tree. "rhe Fairy Queen will help you
and she gives you her promise that
soon you shall all outshine in splendor
the evergreens that scoru you"
As Old clustering Wind passed again
the fairy caught at his trailing tail
and off she went, but the Great Trees
felt happier and they waited and
watched.
Then one moonlight night, when the
evergreens looked up at the great bare
trees. their cries of "Shame |" froze
before they left their branches. For
instead of being naked and bare, the
Great Trees were clothed in gorgeous
splendor such as the evergreen had
never beheld.
The Fairy Queen had sent the snow
fairies and Jack Frost to dress the
Great Trees. They wore diamonds and
their long branches were powdered
with sparkling frost, and there they
stood like great kings dressed in white
and silver.
The evergreens were certain that
the next day, when the sun came out.
the Great Trees would be naked
again, but they were more wonderful
in their splendor rs the sunlight fell
upon them.
And no more did the evergreens cry
"Shame!' to the Great Trees. for all
through the winter did the Fairy
Queen keep them dressed in their
sparkling clothes.

SERVED HOT DISH
Kafir Host Possessed Peculiar
Sense of Humor.
Traveller Had to Admit That In No
Way Could the Dinner Be Called
Success.

High on the hillside we could SOC
more than one Kafir village, hanging
suspended, as 1t were, almost I'm mid
air, but, since the inhabitants had a
VIGOROUSLY bad reputation, we hesI-
tated to ask them the way. Not with.
out some misgivings, we climbed the
steep ascent until we gained small
village of some 20 houses. Shah Baz
who acted throughout as our inter
prefer, asked to see the headman, and
that parsonage at once showed him.
self. He was inordlnately vain. pomp-
Gus and stupid, and every statement
we made he fatty contradicted. When
he heard to what family / belonged,
however. he abandoned his offensive
tone and addressed me courteously as
an equal, Ikbal Ali Shah writes in
Asia Magazine. He allotted a good
enough house to us, mentioning with
a rather unpleasant laugh that recent
tribal squabbles had provided a little
more house room In the village than
usual He informed us, indeed, that
several of his young men were out
on q foray across the hills.
Asian, the headman, grew more con-
descending. and, feeling that we must
return his hospitality, we invited him
TO dinner. He refused the invitation
rather haughtily, however, and issued
one, which sounded very like COM
mand, that we should dine with him.
Resolved to comply with his wishes,
we proceeded to his house and were
very cordially received. He cleared
our way to- the table by kicking aside
the numerous dogs that lay on the
floor of the anteroom and ushered us
into an inner chamber furnished with
two large, rough bedsteads, on which
he requested us to seat ourselves AS
tan and his wife Immediately set the
meal IN the table. When refused the
wine he proffered, he seemed some
whe, offended and made rather
hau Ihty remark about the temperance
prfclivities of Mussulmans But I re-
st red him to high good humor by
praising the rice and milk, which Ka-
frs consider great luxury, and he

offered It to him, and he accepted 1t
with sparkling eyes. Then, not to
be outdone In the niceties of the table.
he smothered the contents Of my dish
with chilli. and when I sneezed and
coughed, laughed consumedly, telling
me that spicy food put courage into
a man. l kept my temper with diff
ficulty, but, knowing full well how
rash 1t would be to quarrel with him.
took no notice Of his doubtful peasan
tries and gulped down the burning
mess as best l might. From neither
the social nor the culinary point Of
view was that dinner a success.
