It was the festival wf the flowers.
They had come from every clime, and
every forest and gardeta, every hill and
dell, had sent its representative. High
carnival had been held, and this morning,
the last of the festival, was devoted to
ctory telling:, either history or legend or
incident of travel. As the Morning Glory
bad not yet spoken some one proposed
hearing her, ere she fell asleep in the
beat of the day.
"I am not much given to talking," the
Morning Glory said, "but as you have
called upon me you shall hear the history
of my family."
And this is the story that she told:
We were not always morning glories.
No, indeed. The time was, if you count
back far enough, when my first ancestor
.'Was a brown one, living in the darkness I
of the earth and dreading the beautiful
ught and the warmth of the glorious sun
shine which today is our breath of life,
for you must know that among the
brown ones the light of day is forbidden,
and woe to the one that is caught by its
rays, for he is mstantly changed into
stone.
Well, In this long gone time it hap
pened that the qneen of the fairies fell ilL
No one knew why or how, for such a
thing had never before happened, and
well you may imagine the consternation
that filled the court.
Of course the underground people knew
nothing of all this, but one night, when
they were permitted to come to earth, to
travel in the light of the moon, they
found how desolate a place it had be
come, and then they heard the fairies
weeping, and they marveled more and
more.
The young prince, son of the brown
king, determined to find out the cause of
the trouble, and, mounting a chariot
made of trembling night dew and drawn
by eight fireflies, be drove directly to the
palace and sought the king.
When he heard of the queen's illness,
be promised the king that he would find
out what had caused it and a means of
bringing back her health even if he lost
bis own life doing so.
That very night, against the will of his
father and all the brown ones, for they
looked to him to govern them if ever
they lost their king, the prince set out on
bis quest. Only in the night dared be go.
At first feel of the gray dawn he would
creep into the ground and lie concealed
until nightfall, when again he would set
out.
He encountered all kinds of dangers,
but he never ceased asking every stick
and stone, every blade of grass and every
drop of water if it could tell the rea
son for earth's sadness. Always, too, he
received the1 same answer, and he knew
that he must go until one should answer
as he wished.
One night he came to a great fire rag
Ing through a wood.
"Fire, fire, can yoo say why the world
,is sad he asked.
But the fire answered only
"I crackle! I crackle!"
Then he went on until he same to an
avalanche, and to It he said
"Avalanche, can yon tell why the world
Is sad 7"
And its only answer was:
"I fall! I fall!"
The brown prince was almost In, de
spair, but soon he reached a rushing tor
rent and asked it the same question:
"Torrent, torrent, do yoo know why
the world is sadr
And to his joy, instead of answering as
be expected that it would, "I rush! 1
rush!" the tprront said:
"Tea, for the fairy queen is ill."
"That is the answer I have been wait
Ing for!" the brown prince cried. "And
. bow you must yield np the secret and tell
. me how to cure her.
"The fairy queen has lost her talisman
ilc pearl. You must find it, and she will
then recover.
"lint how shall I find It?"
"Go back to the fairy court, the tor
rent answered, "catch the first golden ray
of the - morning sun and lock it in the
drop of dew that lies on the queen's
heart. It will; instantly -form into the
peail tint lias, been 'destroyed," and the
V. queen, will e.rce more beWell
Then the h; -owtj. jprince wn$ sad. for he
knew' thst if hi caught Hint ray of light,
wcue it pave l.fe to the fueen, it would
", be i!tveth to" him.-" Cnt then be remetn-
rem! Lis pron:ie, and so instead of go-
tag haefcv to . .1:1 underground home and
, letting thjs earth perish "asjtrell, as the
queen of the fnlries he returned to the
court a ml; J old the king what he had
J. heard, v "-r'' y"r
; "Then a!! is lost.? said the king, "for i
' cannot you, prince Brown, to die.
. Life is as dear to you .a, to any of ns,
and so we must suffer and bear."
Prince Brown .did aot answer, for' he
suddenly felt the gray dawn creeping op,
and, being jdptermiaed. at the risk of his
own life, to Mve the queen and the earth,
be ran to her ; palace, .sand just, as the
first sunbeam ' rliaiineml through.' the
v wood he ctrrijcUf it and 'imprisoned it in
the dewdrop tf her breast, Instantly the
" dewdrop glowed with life, and. the queen
sat up, benntifr.l and strong as ever. - All
the world, too. buret once more into glad
ness and bloom, but Prince Brown drop
ped to the ground, a piece pf stone.
When the Icing told the queen all that
' bad happened, shesaid: ?- .. .."
"lie gave his life for mine, so bear me
one and all! I cannot restore what he
trare. but I will give him life forevcr

henceforth be his life, and to repay him
for his weary wanderings he shall have
rest by night."
As he ceased speaking the queen
touched the stone, and instantly a vine
sprang up. with flowers opened to the
snnlight.
Then the king said: '
And since he brought us joy after the
night of despair I give to Prince Brown
the name of Morning Glory and to bis
flowers the many hues of the sun's own
light-St. 1,011 is Star.

WHY HE LIKES MUSIC.
A Physician Whose Reputation as m
Critic Was Blnated.
There's n physician In Baltimore who
adores music. His taste, to lie sure,
runs rather to "Old Black Joe," "Su
wannee River" and such classics, but
still any sort of music will do. and he
listens to It nil ecstatically and with a
properly intelligent look on his face.
It was therefore believed that lie had
a fine taste for harmony, and his repu
tation as a critic was established and
grew apace as reputations will, good or
bad.
The other evening as his daughter
approached the house in which this
physician lived she heard the strains
of "Home. Sweet Home." proceeding
from the library.
"Fathers at it again." she said to
herself softly. "I wonder who lie has
coerced Into playing for linn now?"
A glance disclosed the foot that he
had bribed three street musicians, two
violinists and n harpist Into giving
him a private recital. They finished
the air just as the young woman enter
ed, and the physician turned to her
with a beaming face. "That 'Nearer,
My God. to Me, is a beautiful thing.
Isn't it?' lie asked.
It was the first time he had commit
ted himself on the subject of "tunes,"
and his glory began to diminish from
that moment, for his daughter told the
Incident as what she considered an er
cellent joke.
Now the worthy man savs that he
likes music solely ns an incentive to
thought and listens to It when he wish
es to solve some knotty problem of ar
tery or bones, Just as those who suffer
from Insomnia go to church and listen
to the sermon to be put to sleep. Balti
