O NCE upon & time there was & wicked Gnome who was 8o very wicked that all the Gnome folks round about wonderea what would become of him. One day he surprised them all by getting married, FIFTY PRIZES IF and up to that time it was the only good deed that he had ever done. All sorts of dire misfortune were predicted fo, reature who had become his bride, i no good would come from such a union. After a while a daughter was born to them, and she grew to be a good andrv:!:; ioeoa?xtcilaaltchleld. By ‘:‘n: by the comp:rflo:::lpeovfezggd;’ g({:\‘(: ;?;‘e\ :::r;dln::?: daughter had a snrteqing effect on the wicked Gnome, and he soon began to mend his ways, much to the chagrin of his former associates, for they disliked to lose such a jolly companion. They re- ted the power for good which the lovely child exercised over her father, and decided that something must be done, for peradventure in time she might convert them also from the error of their ways. , dwelling remote from the Gnome folks was an evil witch, and one dark night they sought her presence and prevailed upon her to cast a spell over the Gnome's daughter, and she was immediately turned into a beautiful rabbit. Her poor father, thinking that his daughter was lost to him forever, was almost distracted with griet, and thus the whife rabbit was left with no protector but her mother, for her heart went out in sympathy to this poor little rabbit which eame to them as their daughter disappeared. Now, it had happened a short time before that a beautiful Prince, passing near the lodge of tho. Guame chiM, became v much impressed with her beauty, and, going home, implored his father, the King, to grant him permission to marry the child, for he fell deeply in love with her at first sight. On recelving the ¢ blessing of the King, he hastened back to declare his love and lay his heart at the feet of his adored one. On arriving at his destination he found her home desolate, and jearned that the ¥ S ch knew her once would know her no more, for she had gone no one knew whither. The Prince, after obtaining all the information possible, set himself to the task of recovering the lost one, for he felt ¢ nced that this was the work of some evil spirit. That night before the face of the pale moon he poured out his heart in prayer to the powers that be for good, and lo; there stood 1 e him one whose htness dazzled the moon and all the stars of night. The Prince, resplendent in that great light, fell upon his face. Then came there a voice saying, “Thy prayers are answered; arise, and in the form of a black cat g0 seek the lost, and when thou dost find her and seest the lovelight In her eyes, touch with this magic wand her lips and thine, and the lost to thy heart shall be re- stored forever.” ce, In the form of a black cat, departed, and one night, after many weeks of weary seeking, he crawled into a lodge to rest his tired body and fell sound aslesp. After awhile he was awakened b laughing and talking, and, listening, he soon found he had entered the lodge of the wicked Gnomes, who were rejoicing at the evil which they had brought on the Gnome's deughter by having her into a white rabbit, and thus he learned their secret. On seeking the next day he found the white rabbit absorbed in a great brass-bound volume of fairy tales, which she had loved to read in her natural life, and all unobserved he sat at her feet till he saw the lovelight in her eye; then, touching her lips and his own with the magic wand, they were both transformed to their true selves, and she was Testored to her parents’ hearts, not as the lost child of the Gnome, but as the bride of the Prince; and thus may good triumph over evil. . 2 natural color as you can make it, fill in the coupon herewith with your !
