Why didn’t they tell me Oh, why 8id no one say 8o before She turned to Floryset and caught her by the hand. “Come,” she said; ‘come, sister; we shall 1o late. They will miss us and send after us; let us go back to the palace at once.” With hunds tightly clasped and their hearts beating in time with their foot- steps, the two Princesses hastened back to the palace garden. The gates were luckily still open and their flight had been undiscovered. So they betook themselves to their tower chamber, and there they #at and talked and talked of the fmages In the wonderful lake, which they both believed to be real. Nefther Fiory or Charlotella slept at all well t nigh arly the next morning the young incesses were awakened by a great shouting below in thecourt yard. They arose hastily and, donning their eilken morning robes, leaned out of the high casement to see what wes causing such an uproar: There they beheld the King, thelr father, clad in full armor, celling loudly to his soldiers, who filled the court yard. . Soon the iron gates of the palace ewung wide apart, and the King, fol- lowed. by his retainers, clad in metal couts of mail and wearing shields and lances, rode forth into the fields beyond.

After this there were dreadful days for the kingdom, when their brave sol- diers were wounded and killed, and the field, that lay so green and smiling beneath the casement of the Princesses, was torn up and spotted with ugly red pools of the blood of brave men. Then it was that even the noblest ladies went forth to care for their wounded soldiers on the battlefleld, led by the King’s daughter, Charlotella. Since the day when the lake had told her that she was beautiful Charlotella had wished to express her gladness in every possible way. She was no longer urkind to those about her. She no longer felt indifferent to the beauty of the sky and of the flelds, but said to herself again and again: “Oh, if I had only known, if they had only told me that I was pretty, I should lcng ago have tried not to be disagree- able.” So Charlotella went daily from her father's royal tent on the battlefleld and cared for his wounded soldiers. She bound up their wounds with soft, cool linen and ointment of roses. Then the pecple began to wonder greatly; and as her contented mind began to show upon her features the creases in her brow were smoothed out and Charlotella’s ugliness was no longer so apparent. Meantime Floryset remained in her chamber In the tower and refused tq come forth, except for a little whila each day, when she walked daintily about in the palace garden, attended by her maids of honor. Much of the time she spent lying idly upon her couch of rose colored silk, gazing into her small mirror of polished metal. She would have liked much to visit again the won- derful lake which had shown her so entrancing & photograph of her charm- ing self, but she was fearful of behold- ing the ugly sights that awaited her in the fields that led to the lake. “Ah, dear,” she said to her little Jmaid In waiting, as the latter stood Deside her wielding a great fan of long, white, siiky ostrich feathers, whiie at the font of her couch her littie page sang softly and sweetly to the tinkling melody of his guitar. “Ah. dear, I am so sorry for papa’s poor soldiers. It must hurt dreadfully to have a sharp lance thrust into one’s flesh. Ugh! Sing to me again about the spring and the birth of tae flowers, that I may forget the dreadful things outside the palace walls.” Many years later, and tong after the Prlnesuu had grown old and had dled, le in the kingdom, and In far dis- un countries, too, told wondertul tales of Saint Charlotella, who they sald was once the most beautiful Princess in the 4 4 L} v
