Arthur Joy. Little Ellen and the King. Virginia Yeaman Remnitz, In St. Nicholas, tells a true story of the adventures of two young Americans at the court of the King of Denmark. They were children of the American ministers and had been invited to a Children's party at the palace. Here is what followed: It was to Ellen a ten night. The crowds of happy children, the great room brilliantly lighted, the strains of music, the presence of a real King and Queen all combined to make the scene a fairyland wherein events took place which made Ellen feel herself a sort of fairy queen. The King opened the ball with little Ellen. Hardly understanding the honor, some sense of it, nevertheless, thrilled her childish heart. She could not even see his face, so tall was he, but his strong arms bore her around and around, she knew not how, for Ellen danced with as little precision and method as the leaves on a tree or the ripple In a lake. Yet all through her being she felt that she was dancing with the King. It seemed but fitting after the dance to find herself seated on the sofa between the King and Queen. With royal disregard to the claims of other small guests, and with royal indifference to the effect upon little Ellen, they lifted her up between them. She looked pretty, natural and 'unconscious, and was herself a little queen In her ways. While Ellen, sat there, too happy and pleased to feel proud, the other children danced on. With no thought of imitating their elders in manner or motion, the young dancers abandoned themselves with childish freedom and simplicity to the enjoyment of the hour. Those who had never been trained In the different steps adapted their movements to the promptings of happy hearts and light feet and were as contented as the others. And little Ellen rested comfortably between the King and Queen until she was ready to dance again. The evening wore on, and Ellen was overcome with weariness and sleep. Slipping away from the children, who now were whirling around In some dizzy game, she threw herself on a couch. Just as the scene grew misty to iier eyes and the dazzllnsr events of the evening began to weave themselves into the suggestion of a dream,' she was aroused by some one asking, "Where did you get your pretty pink slippers, Ellen?" and she opened her eyes. Why was the King sitting beside her and talking to her when she was so sleepy? She had a confused idea that he ought to put on his crown and sit on a throne. "Please, Mr. King, don't bover me. I'm so happy," and Ellen, turning her face upon royalty, slipped away to her pleasEllen," ing dreams.

In Africa there exists a certain member of the crab genus commonly known as the great tree crab. This peculiar shell-fis- h has an offensive trick of crawling up the cocoanut trees, biting off the cocoanuts and then creeping down again backward. The theory is that the nuts are shattered by the fall and the great tree crab is thus enabled to enjoy a hearty meal. Now, the natives who Inhabit the regions infested by this crab are well aware that the lower portion of the crab's anatomy is soft and sensitive and they believe that the "bivalve" was thus constructed in order that he might know when, he had reached the ground and when, consequently, he might with safety release his grasp of the trunk. So what they do in order to stop his depredations, which often ruin the cocoanut crops, is this: While the crab is engaged in nipping off the cocoanuts they climb half way up the trees and there drive a row of long nails right around the tree, allowing an inch or so of the nails to project. The crab has no knowledge of disaster nor yet of the fitness of things. As he descends the sensitive part of his body suddenly touches the nails. Thinking he has reached the ground, he naturally lets go. Instantly he falls backward and cracks his own shell on the ground. Pattl's Method.

Anthony a Atlanta, Ga., a short time ago, when. Miss Will Allen Drumgoole, the popular Southern author, said in her address at the Capital College: "It is a great thing to be the mother of a great cause.j Years ago there flashed upon the world a woman; she had no other announcement than the 'wild scheme' she had mothered. Wherever she went the hiss, the sneer, the finger of scorn were to follow. Yet she pushed right on; the Implacable enemy of slavery in vanity's dress; the mother of an unborn cause. To me she stands majestic among women; to me she is the grandest picture in the book of our time; to me, like the prayer of my childhood, the name of Susan B.
