CARMEN sv'L-vais‘ HEART.

Here is a pn-tty little story about Car<

A few yeam ago, when ulu- was in the
zenith of her popularity and health, she
visitcda small village school incog, and
asked the children through tboir “paces."
The mrboolmistress was highly delighted.
Although she was unaware of the high
rank of her visitor, who guessed from out
ward appearance that the latter was of
no common order. The (‘llll’lf‘l‘ll did their
mistress credit, answering with great
prompitudc all the simple qttrsiinns the
queen put to them.

some book. The child was my doz.-ply en-
grossed in her reading that she («mk no

The queen asked the reason of her silrnce;
was she deaf or otherwisc afllirlml' “Oh.
no,” was the answer, "but ~xlu- is stupid
and nevcraiicndsto lu-rmudios, but swim
every opportunity to read story books."
Carmen Sylva walked quictly up to the
little reader. and placing her band on the
curly head, asked gently what the child
was reading, and the latter hold up the
book to the strange lady. It was “Fairy
Stories and l’ocms," by i'urnu-n Sylva.
“And do you like these tall-s?" asked
their author. "liikc tbcm, madam? (lb.
I love them!"
And Carmen Sylva took tlw child in her
arms, kissed the little flushed face, and
departed. About a week afterward the
child's aunt ~for the little nmidon was
an orphan «received a letter from the
queen offering to mlurato and bring up
the cbil :. The offer was gratefully and
thankfully accepted, and now the little
one is one of the best acliolaru in ltoumau-

A blue eyed girl was advancing up the

accustomed to plenty of outdoor exercise.
She smiled frankly up into the suspicious
face of the farmer's wife.
“Might I baveadrink of water. please?"
she said. ,
"Certainly," said Sam at once. ”l’ll

”Who are you?" questioned his mother

And the upshot of the matter was that
Mrs. Levinbolt took the Scotch lassle-on

Jessie proved to be the best and quick-

Mrs. Loviobolt groaned.
“ it‘s my cousin, Milan llenshaw's
daughter Sybilla, come to make a visit,“
she sighed, adding in spirit “Why don't
folks wait until they are invited?"
But, too hmpitablc openly to express
her thoughts, she advanced to greet the
new come-r.
Miss Sybilla Henabuw was from the
city, neither quite so young nor so pretty
as she had once been, but amazingly well
preserved. She had come out. into the
country ostensibly to visit her cousin

“Your pocketbook. Sybille."
