A FAIRY GIFT FROM THE
 MOUNTAIN SPRITE

 A dear little friend of mine ono day (Mad for adventure) cfanced to
 stray Through the gate of Dreams, and,
 sO I've heard tell There came under q Fairy's spell. Through meadows sweet with new
 mOwn hay She romped with the Fairy Prince
 all day. They raced down the paths by pur-
 ling brooks, Then rested awhile in shady hooks Where violcts lifted their drowsy
 heads From out the depths of their messy
 beds. They wandered along by the mur- muring streams Far, far Into the Land of Dreams, Where the lotus grows; and tho
 Iris bright Blooms in the vale of the Noun
 tain Sprite! 0, Life is sweet in the Land 70
 Dreams, Where the BuIbul sings and the
 Firefly glcams. And the wood Thrush whistles
 that haunting note That brings the heart to the lis-
 tener's throat. They give no heed to the passing
 hours As ever they Tit through enchanted
 bowers. Until, tired at last. at the fall of
 night, They come to the home of the
 tn fra Cpxftfn "Herc in this Valc," said the Arc fashioned the lives and the
 Hopes of men. Hero lives the Spark of Celestial
 Fire That gives unto you your hearts
 desire. Here you may rest and I'll bring to
 you A refreshing draught of the Honey
 Dew" The Spirit vanished in q flash of
 light And the maiden was left in half 2
 fright; But e'cr her heart could have beat
 en ten The Spirit stood at her side again. From a crystal cup of sapphire The maid quaft deeply the Honey The sun, now, rose with dazzling
 light Der the enchanted Vale of the
 Mountain Sprite. Hand fin hand the two now go Through wonderful gardens, where
 psrSvu SNta usrNvrr l Grow flowers of every kind and
 hue, Fairer than ever the maiden knew; For within each blossom, white or
 red, Lay an infant, small, in its per- fumcd bed. Fondly she gazed on the rosebud lips And her heart was grippcd by the finger tips Of the tiny hands--and she could not go Because she had come to love them so. The Mountain sprite. with know ing look, Paused to gaze in the laughing brook: And, c'cr again he had reached her side A tiny blossom she tried to hide Deep in her bOsOm---with tcndcrcst The smiling Sprite said to her My dear, You arc welcome, indeed, to q bud or TWO. For every flower here belongs to you. Yes. That is the reason I brought you here That you might choose from your garden fair A bud-that could never have be- come whole Until Mother Love gave to It q soul. An mortal soul; a ray of light; Pure and perfect in Gods own sight. My work Is finished: YOURS but begun; You chose a daughter---lf you want m await you here at the Gate
 of Dreams. And again we'll stroll by the sing ing streams: The Gates are open at Night--at Noon Good bye. Gold bless you, I'll cx. pcct you sO0n." --M. J.
