when the prince, seeing the shadow, and
excited by the strange visitor who had
just left him, wheeled suddenly around,
and in doing so toocfaed ****

As a statue of the whitest marble, she
stood before him.
As the prince stood wondering at the
magic power of the apparently common
place staff , a courier approached in all
haste with a message from a distant
province governed by a very dear friend
of Prince AIL
The breathless messenger fell on hia,
face before the prince, and after salam-
ing after the manner of the day and re
covering breath enough to speak, he
begged the pardon Of the prince for first
exacting a promise of secrecy in regard
to the matter npon which ho had been
sent, it being his master’s special order.
In his anxiety the prince raised the
hand that held the staff and placed it on
the shoulderof the exhausted messenger,
and be, too, was marble.
As the days went by the palace filled
with strange images, and the possessor
of the wonderful staff began to long for
the supernatural donor. The possession
of bis gift began to be a weight, and
each image added to the palace was a
weight added to the burden of its ruler.
Still the longed for visitor came not
At last, when the prince was almost
driven to madness, his strange visitor
again appeared. Before he coaid ask a
question of the descendant of the great
Mahmoud the staff was thrust into his
hands and he was prayed by the memory
of the great leader to restore to life the
silent images that, instead of adorning,
cast a gloom over, the palace.
"Is that not beautiful?” asked the
strange visitor, pointing to the figure of
the mischievous girl favorite. “Look,
at the grace, the smile almost bursting

Large or smell, mentioned in the original, and of several thousand topics not to
be found in that work.. It tells, at length commensurate with the importance
of each, of everything which the scholar, the student, the professional and busi
ness man can wish to know about. With infinite labor the rich store-house of
the original has been overhauled, its treasures of fact conserved, its wealth of
material utilised.
The Americanized Encyclopaedia Britannica
Is valuable because it £s accurate, because it is modem, because it has rejected
the worthless and preserved the necessary, because it brings the history of
science, literature, commerce, geography and discovery, and the mental and
moral development of the race down to the year 1890.
