The Fairyland of Sick Children
I
Philip had been very a'cfc, bnt was slowly getting better. All day he lay in his bed with nothing t do . His only pastime wa to gaze at a little picture at the foot ot his bed. This picture showed a doer, partly open, but not far enough to allow him to see beyond It. Philip wibbed that there had been a child or a dog or a cat in it, or that the floor would open and let him ee what was on the other !do. One day at twilight, as he lay looking at tfce picture, he saw the door opening- slowly. A head emerged from behind the door in the picture, and a sweet yoice said: "Would you like to come with roe?" 'Oh, yes." answered Philip ''I am so tired of lying here doing nothing." "Then put on your bathrobe and wrap up carefully, so that yon won't ret a chill." As he hastily put on his bathrobe. Philip wondered how he. a h' buy of gtreii, would ever set through the door in the picture that was hardly six irelies hixh. But he decided not to worry about It the fairy had prohai It thought of that. When he turned towards the picture a-rain, the door had jrrown bo bi(- that he colli not see the top of it The little fairy hid also prow ri until she was as tail or taller than Philip, and he retired with dismay that she wore a nurse's uniform. He had had enough of nurses daring his Hire s. There would he no fun explorisg the land behind the p!ctur door if a -nurse was to take him. Put by this time she had gone through the door, and Phi'.ip had r.o choice but to follow. There & etranre scene met his eyes. He found himself in a huso hail flooded with a soft, beautiful light, though he eou'-i see no lamps, and filled with soft et-ains of music. The hall was filled with children, who wre dressed, like himself. 1n bathrobes, some with blankets wrapped around them, fome ferer-flushed, soma cough!.;,
some walking with crutches, but ail looking happy and gay. In one corner a. base table filled with liamtitB to which the sick children helped tiieuiJ-eivea trora time to time. Many of them were dancing, even the crippled ones. In fact, ail the children in the room bad forgotten their ailments, and were having a wonderful time. Some sang; and some danced, and soma played games, but all looked happy and well, in gpite of coughs and fevers, bandages and crutches. One of the many kind fairies drosf-ed like a nurse suggested a gams, and about a hundred children took hands and made a circle, and danced and sang around the hi? hall. Suddenly In the center of the oircltj they saw a tail nan in a long black coat, though no rn could tell how he came there. Beside hirn stood a bottle as t.ll as he was. and it was labelle 1, "Medicine." The children shuddered, and made faces, but none dared escape the man in the black coat. Ore by ore tbey went tin ti get thMr dofe of medicine. rhiH-i noticed with horror that the medl-ine was not given in a teaspoon, but in a big tumbler! H wondered how he would be able to swallow such a big dose of bitter medi -Ire; and when his turn came, he frund his knees trembling with frinh:. However, there was no escape. so he took the big glass and swaMowed its contents at a gulp. To h's "iimrise. it tasted like sweet milk, and he thought this must be Fairviand. sir.ee medicine tasted o pood. N'o sooner had he swallowci th glassful of medicine than he found h'mr-elf very s'eapv. Oa1rg arou'd the hall he saw that all of his r'svrrmtes whn had taken the glass of medkMr.e were asleep, and in a moment he h?.,1 maris himself as comfortable as he could and had filler asleep too. When he awoke he found hims!f in his own bed in the little bedroom at ho-ne, and thre on the wall was the very picture with the door thronrh which he had gone ta the fairyland for sick children
