PAGE OUTLOOK Jlfc THE PINEHURST we Had some us fairies who trYv said with feeling; uDo you know, ni--' "little ones, that the fairies would c'iie to the mountainfolk oftener if we Co M brave the cold weather? But we fe ! the ice and snow keenly, and have to remain where the temperature is more congenial. But there are so many little folks in need of the fairy's aid in the icebound mountains that it seems a pity there are no fairies that can brave the elements anu siy ucai iu need them. Ah, if only i, .,..!" fairies among loved the ice and snow !" Hereupon the good little fairy sighed and stretched out her hands to the Are. For a few minutes not a word was said, and Dado, who had been intently thinking, spoke: "Good fairy cannot you change my sister and me into fairies snow fairies? If you can we will remain here in the mountains and be of help to the poor children who need fairies' help." "Brave, noble little boy !" exclaimed the fairy. "1 shall try to perform the miracle you suggest. But" and she turned to Pinto, who was listening eagerly to all that was being said "per haps the little maid does not wish to be come a fairy." Yes, yes, I wish to be a fairy, a snow fairv as brother says. I would not be anything else if brother is one," Pinto declared enthusiastically. The good fairy smiled and raised her tiny wand. Passing it slowly over the heads of the little orphans she murmur ed some strange words; then with a quick turn of the wand she cried: 'Change lad and maid, from human to superhuman ; from boy and girl to Snow Fairies." A sudden darkness fell in the room, and when again the light of the tire de fined the objects there Dado and Pinto had disappeared and in their place were two beautiful Snow Fairies, with hap piness before them. "Ah, now we shall carry you, dear Cloud Fairy, to your own warm clime," said the Snow Fairy (who had been Dado) speaking to the little fairy whose charm had worked so marvelous a miracle. "Yes, we will protect you from the snow which we love and see that you reach your own dominion soon," de clared the Snow Fairy,- who had been little Pinto a few minutes before. Aud away flew the three fairies, hap py as could be. "Children Grazing on Hills." It is told of a certain Queen of Den mark, who was visiting Iceland, that, in the course of some compliments to the iiishop, who had been showing her all that was to be seen, she asked him how many children he had. The Danish word lor "children" happens to resemble very closely in sound the Icelandic word for ' sheep," and the good Bishop, confusing the two, replied, "Two hundred." "Two hundred!" cried the Queen. ' How can you possibly maintain such a number?" "Easily enough, please your Majesty," returned the Bishop. "In the summer I turn them out upon the hills to graze, iind when winter comes I kill and eat them!" A Xovetick lllppo. Near the mouth of a large river in Africa there lived a young Miss Hippo potamus. She was not very proud of her looks, and she always wrote her name without the hyphen. But one day as she was taking a sun bath, with just her nose and flat back above water, there came by that way a very wise professer of natural history, who, seeing Miss Hippo at her bath, seemed full of delight and cried out: "What a beauty ! What a beauty ! I'd like to take her with me." Poor Miss Hippo was greatly excited and ducked hir head at once, as any well mannered young lady would do at such a time When she came back to the surface again the professor had gone, but his words had turned Miss Hippo's head. "He meant me, of course," she said to herself. "Then I must be handsome after all, and he did say that he would like to take me with him. How nice it would be to go oft with that handsome man! And he called me a beauty!" Poor Miss Hippo began to be vain. She dressed herself in her very best gown, she put on her Easter bonnet, and, tak ing her parasol, she waded out on the sandy bank. "He is not here, but he will come back," she sighed. "I will leave a mes sage for him." So she took a stick and and wrote on the sand : "Please, dear Mr. Man, come back. You can have me any time. I shall be here at this time tomorrow. Miss Hip-po-potamus." And this time she put in the hyphen. But when she came back the next day the tide in the river had risen and washed out all her message. Each day she wrote, but each day the water washed out her writing. The professor never came back, and the poor hippo grew thinner and thinner until her skirts got too big. "I shall die for love of him," she said. And she did. Wasn't she foolish? miMAL ACROSTIC. If the words pictured above are rightly guessed, and written one below the other, their initial letters will spell something that all children like. A. 6. SPALDING & BROS.
