Tten a bright white light shone at the top of the long red ladder, and down came walking, stepping daintily on the rungs, a beautiful maiden, dressed all In white. When Bbe reached the bottom she placed a white hand upon Wilson's foreht-ad and said, in a rolce like the tingling of silver bolls, "Naughty Wilson, look; look. Naughty Wilson!" And Wilson looked and saw through the side of the Great Hollow Tree, past the Big Rtd Oak. tbe Crookvd White Brook a,nd the Huge Black Rock into his own little bed room, where a candle, burning dimly, showed bis mother knreling by the side of bis empty bed and his father standing by, with his hand resting softly on her bowed head. He could not see her face, but be knew that she was sobbing. His father looked very sad and thera were tears In his eyes. "Oh, I will be gorid! I will be good! Take me bonze!" acd Wilson fell sobblcg at the feet of tbe beautiful maiden. The beautiful girl bent and kissed blm on the forehead; avd lo! the tide of the bol-i low tree opened, and they floated through the air Ilft'ht as thistledown and as swift aa arrows, pan the Big Red Oak. the Crooked White Brook and the Huge Black Rock to the door of bis home. The door flew open, aud W!!son rushed Into his mother's arms. A moment after, when Wilson turned to tbsnk the beautiful maiden, the door was closed and the girl tad vanished. Oinner.

The Queen smiled Into her baby's blue eyes and fell asleep so sweet ly thot they did not know she bad awakened in another country. The King, mourning for tbe Queen, re fused to see bis daughter. She was chris tened Mini!, and was said by her nurse' to be a beautiful child, though the lords and ladles at tbe christening caught only a glimpse of a tluy form on a pillow, swathed In trailing lace. In the slate chamber the nurse rocked the cradle and droned a lullaby. On the floor lay a large black cat. His fur was like plush, and bis eyes yellow as topaz, except nli.if wVtAn tnrnrt tn prpim -furlA and shed a faint light. '' ! "Here, Marmo." said the nurse to tbe cat, "stir the cradle while I go below to speak with my cousias and other relatives." One evening when the Princess Mlml was nparing three weeks old the qneen's sister came to the palace under cover of the twi light, carrying her child wrapped in her cloak. She was dark and bad an evil temper. Her baby, too, was as 111 fnvored as the lit tle princess was fair and comely. The sister of the Queen talked long with the nurse and gave her many piece of gold. Then 6"he lifted the Princess, and placing her own child In the cradle, said: "My daughter shall be Princess and Queen, and, as the people have not seeu the child Mim', no one will be the wiser. And 1 shall rear Mlml, pretending she Is my own." They bad not noticed the cat Marmo dur ing this conversation. HlB back was-arched, his tall waved like a plume and hla Jade jrrcen eyes emitted sparks. No sooner had the plotters left the room, leaving the Prln rfss on a conch, than he sorac? uoon the dressing case and made fast the -Queen'aH Jewel box by tying a knot la his tall. He then leaped upon the couch and, lifting the baby Mini! by the nape cf her neck, ran out of doors with her. Down to the shore hurried Marmo, carry ing the baby, until he came to a fisherman's dory tied to the pier. With velvet paws be stepped Into the boat and dropped the princess gently on a coll of rope iu the stern as the heavy tread of the fisherman was heard. Then Marmo, taking from the Jewel box a ring of little value, bowed courteously to the fishermau. and said: "Sir, I pray you to accept this ring as fee for a passage across the channel for this child and myself." ; - . Tbe fisherman wondered greatly, but he took the ring and rowed bard over the wares, for he feared Marmo, thinking him a magi cian. In. this way Marmo followed the fisherman to his cottage very fast Indeed, for the man was so terrified by his strange visitors that be ran every step of the way. "You will do yourself no injury, O fisher man," began the cat, "by taking from me this bracelet, studded with gem.s, in return for shelter aad excellent cow's milk for my self and the child. A diet of such fish as yoo catch Is agreeable to me also." The fisherman's eyes sparkled when he saw the Jewels, and he replied: "It will afford me great pleasure O much esteemed cat, to exteird to you the shelter of my trumble roof!" "ier The fisherman's wife marveled at the me ricn robes of the babv tet she set anon the board milk a ai II 5P "rd milk anJ flSh as Te princess. GLEN. the cat directed. Many days passed, and Marmo purred tp soothe the baby's crying, and waved hi3 tall and sheathed and unsheathed his shining claws to amuse her. While she slept be walked on the beach with the fisherman and learned many things about the taking of fish and lobsters. He considered buying a donj and trying his fortune on the deep sea when the Jewels were gone. Every night when their guests were asleep the fisherman and his wife hunted the casket. They did not find It, for the cat had hidden It under a brick of the hearfh. " When the queen's sister returned to carry away tbe princess her anger knew no bounds. She was forced to be content with declaring that her own child had been stolen. The news spread to every town in the kingdoni. The fisherman and his wife, seeing the chance of reward, immediately took counsel with their neighbors "Is not this cat the thief?" they said. "How did he bet pos session of this richly clad infant acd this box of gem 8?" "Put blm in Irons," said the neighbors, "lie shall be brought before the King rind tried by seven Judges." So they led Marmo before the King and tbe court and the seven whice wlgged Judgeis, proclaiming that tbey had taken the thief and claiming reward. K "Prisoner at the bar what have yon to say In your defense?" demanded the first of the seven Judges. t Then the cat, with salaams to the klnjr. unfolded the story of the queen's wicked sister, bow she had changed the babies fn their cradles that her own child might be queen, how lie, Marmo, had rescued the princess. Ana," ne conciuaeo, "Honored sirs, Itf you aouDt my words go to the but of te fisherman, where you will find the Queerfs Jewel box, containing the royal signet ring, hidden under a brick of the heartb. Look, moreover, at the infants themselves- and say which resembles the Queen and whidh the wicked lady, her sister." I These things they did. and found tho cas ket as the cat bad Raid, and the Princess Mlml was- declared the image of her sainted mothr. The wicked sister was banished from fie land, the nurse Imprisoned and the fisher- ...at ue srni away without ft naiu. 1 of nt '"iu mm mo niiea that- nnclt! h!v throno-hnr, i A"1- P0SltI ;h;;-;rnt:v"7 .u 01 lDe. ana Mr'.s Lled by his " -" ttuairs 01 me Estate.
