GOWN O GOLD

In a queer little Sewn lone years ago there lived a proud and ugly woman. The folks of the town did rot know why she was proud and only laughed at her when she frowned at the children and scolded at the butcher if he did not bring to her house the finest roast ia his tiny shop. But the woman was proud because nf her jfown of gold. She knew that her house needed paint and that it was so tun:ble-down that if a dog trotted across the front porch he . could shake it'down. She knew that her garden was straggly and that .-her yard was full of weeds. She ,kr.ew that she herself was uly of face and that she had an ugly temper. But she did not care at all because all tucked away in white tissue paper in a corner of her little dark clcset was the Gown o' Gold. Where the gown came from, no c-r.e knew but the proud and ugly "oman, and she never told. But ' little Gerva. the serving maid of the r:g!y woman, often went to peek at tit where it hung. 2nd she could hardly blame her ill-tempered mistress fsr being proud. This gown was fit for any queen "to wear. It was spun from f.nest frold, and it held all the colors in the world. Around the sleeves there flew a swana of moths and butterflies. They seemed as velvety as Teal butterflies, and little Gerva often thought that she could hear the whir VjOf their wings. They were emerald , rand rose, turquoise blue or vermil;ior. in color. ; About the bottom of the skirt grew 'a whole orchard of trees. Right in the front of the gown there was a tree all full of great purple plums, and at the sides of the skirt there ;were trees covered with coral-col-'cred fruit the shape of hearts, and

'.queer flowers were dotted over the "entire Gown o' Gold. . Little Gerva would scrub away at Ithe floors of tiie cottage or wash i:p the dishes while she thought of the wonderful garment in the dark closet upstairs. And when her raistre'5 .went down to the village, to sro'd ;the butcher, baker, or candlestick maker, Gerva would sneak away to the closet, unpin the tissup wrappings and gaze lovingly at the won-i-'derful thing. It always seemed to her as ii the closet were sweet with Jhe smell of Tairy gardens and orchards, and it was only when she heard the footsteps of her mistress .that she would scurry away.

One day the proud woman really smiled and forgot to box Gerva upon the ears. After dinner she said to the little girl: "My time has come. The Queen has sent word that she will give a castle and lands to the woman in her kingdom who can bring her a Gown o' Gold. Go to the dark closet, Gerva, and bring to me that which you will find in paper wrappings there." Vf'ith fingers that trembled, little Gerva took the gown from its peg urJcn the wall and as she did so she heard a tearing sound that made her little heart stand still. The Gown o Gold had caught upon a rail and had been torn.. Gerva dared not face her mistress. Quick as a wink she raised the -window and sprang into the yard, and away through tha forest. Even in her fright she. heard the rush and whir of wings about her and sniffed fairy perfumes. Then she heaid soft and gentle voices say: "Do ot run so swiftly, little Gerva. The enchanted gown has ravelled and let us free. We are afraid that the ugly woman will captureus. Let us live in your little gingham gown." Gerva looked up to find herself surrounded by all the rainbow-hued moths and butterflies, all the luscious fruits, all the wonderful blossoms that had lived in the Gown o' Gold. Too surprised to move, she saw the queer-winged things fasten themselves to her dingy little; frock. But surprises seemed to have no end. As soon as a butterfly or fruit or blossom touched the gown it glowed like a living flame, and then it was that little Gerva knew that she owned a Gown o' Gold. Did she run on to the Queen and earn the reward of castle and lands? Not at all. She ran en and on into the forest until she came to a little brown cottage where lived her poor mother and little sister. And when her sweet-faced mother saw the gown she said, with eyes full of joyous tears: "My child, at last the fairies have blessed us!" Gerva did not know what her mother meant, but she did know that i-'urirr all the following years when the Gown o' Gold hung in the little cottage never did thev want for a thing and happiness ruled there. Now can you explain why one owner of this gown should be so rroud and the othrs such simple folks?
