It is very, i-easonnblo to argue that no creation ofhuman fancy could last as fairy talcs havo lasted through no one knows how many hundreds and thousands of years unless It was very good. For that which Is not good and not sound must surely die, and only that which is good and sound shall last through tho grinding of tho ages. So I bcliovo that parents could All (heir children's Imaginations full of fairy talcs If thoy would mako thoso Imaginations stroiig and healthy. As for that man or womnn who has not theso bright and joyous things flying like golden bees through tho dim recesses re-cesses of his or her memory, I can only say that I think his or her parents pa-rents must havo been neglectful of tho earlier training of their child, and that I am sorry for that poor soul who has lost to much plcasuro out of its life.
