A Fairy Story,
There was once upon a time an Idle
young lass, who took a dtsllko to horspih-
nlng wheel. Her mother thought it right
to boangry with her about this, but It was
of no avail. One day the good dame lost
her patience to such an extent tlmt she
threatened to beat her daughter, and tho
girl began to cry uud make n great noise
■ Just at this* time, the nuccn of the coun
try happened to bo passing by, and, hear
ing tho sobs of tho uuhappy girl, ordered
her carriage to stop, and descending front
It, .entered the house, and peremptorily
thumb?' .
“From twisting tho throad,” said sho
who had twisted tho thread.'
“Oh," said tho princo to himself, "Is
this tho reward of Industry? My pretty
wifo shall not spoil her beauty by over
work, X will take enro of thatl”
So, alarmed at such a prospect, ho de
clared that bis bride should never ngaln
put hor-hand or foot to a splnning'-whcel,
or touch thread with her lips. And so
tho Httlo lazy puss was cleverly freed from
an occupation sho so much detested.
Wo think there Is always amoral In fairy
talcs, and have often tried to find out tho
moral of this one (for tho three spinners,
you must know, weto allot them ihirlcs,
and had boon god-mothors to tho young
. ... ;lou vory
girl at her birth.) Wo wqro puzzled very
muchnboutlt; and, at last, the fairy queou,
seeing how bewildered wolooked, nud find
ing that her prime ministor and head law
yer Could hardly attend to her business,
nquired what wns the matter; and then
questioned tho fndtllcr why slio was beat

■ Now, tho worthy dame, though itngry
With her daughter, llnil the honor of her
fiunily at heart, and could not benr to re
veal the laziness of her child; so sho Said
to the queen:
“I could not got the distaff away from
her; she insists iipon.keing always and In-

Whorcupou the queen.roplled;
• "There is nothing'! am sofonil of ns n

a charm upon mo. Fray givo your daugh

First Lore.
It is one of tiio oldest points of differ
ence between man nud woman that woman
hns no first love. .The long alphabet of
her afl'eotlons ia without any distinct end
or boginning; sho mounts by insensible
imitations from dolts aud kittens and pot
jrothers to the zenith of passion, to de
scend by tho same insensible gradations
from tho zenith of passion through pot
brothers to tabby cats. There is no such
ovont ns a first Kins forms in a boys lifb to
mark for woniun the transition from g1rl-
' to tlio Buddep maturity of passion;
is been kissing Jipijpnrrlng andfopd-
ltmr nnd polling from her cmdb, and sho
will pet nnd fondto -and purr and kiss ' to"
her graVo. Lovo, - in- tho technical sens*-
of the word, is with her little more tlusm
nn intensifyingofhorordinnrylife. There
is no uew picture, but the colors are for
tho while a little heightened add the tone
raised. Presently the vividness, of color
will faite ngaiu, nnij tho .cool grays low,pc

moment at wliich ono could ihirly say thnt
lovo camo or wont, A girl who Is not
whispering in n lover’s eitr will always spy
frankly enough that, sho never knew what
’t was not to bo In love. Tlioro Is one ob-
irldiis deduction which sho forgets to draw,
that there never can be a timo when sho
can know whAt it Is to bo In love; Hero
and theyo, of course, a woman, may bo

self conscious, nml-may divide by mote
