The Fairy With The Lantern.
The little fairy of whom I am going
to tell you was named Jack, and he
carried about, througb all the long,
dark hours, a tiny lantern. During
the day he must have slept very
soundly,—for he was up o' nights until
very late,—but in such snug places
that no mortal could ever discover
him. At night, though, it was easy
enough to see what he looked like. At
least so thought Annabel, who, her
grandfather said, had eyes that saw
what 110 others ever could see. She
declared that Jack was just about five
inches high, that he wore a peaked
hat, and that the light of his lantern,
as it danced-13ver the big marsh near
her grandfather'd house, was like the
blue flame of a caedle.
Grandfather had several times
warned the little girl when she came
to visit him never to have anything
to do with Jack. He said that if
Jack was a fairy, as she insisted,lie
isra:s certainly a very naughty one, who
would like nothingbetter than to have
people follow him into marshy lands
where they would be sure to be stuck
fast in the mud; then he would laugh
at their plight, but never offer to help.
But Annabel, although she proinised
that she would never even try to go
near the little blue dancing light, in-
sisted that Jack was a good fairy, and
some day, she said, they would find
out that she was right.

as king of Persia. First year—As
