Mina was a poor little orphan girl who lived all alone in a little cottage by the side of . the forest. Mina had a little garden which she planted in the summer and sold the vegetables she raised to the town folk, and in the, long winter she spun and sold her linen, and in this way she kept from starving, although at times she came very near ft, so very poor she was. One day in the summer she was working in her garden when she saw something shine near her feet. Mina stopped to pick it up, and to her surprise she found it was a very tiny stick that looked like gold. 'This must be a fairy wand," said Mina, looking at It with wonder In her eyes. "Now I hope some poor little fairy has not , lost it and been punished by the Queen, i could not uce it If 1 kept It, and so I will put it on this big cabbage right where the moon will shine on it and perhaps tonight the fairy who lost it will find it." That night Mina was awakened from her sleep by feeling something soft against her chest, and when she opened her eyes she saw a fairy standing on the side of her bed in the moonlight and smiling sweetly at her. 'Wake up, my good little Mina," said the fairy, "for it was you who saved iae from banishment, for tho you may not know it, any fairy who loses her wand and does not find it in three days or nights is banished forever by the Queen and has to become a mortal. ' . "No, I did not know that," said Mina, sitting up in bed and rubbing her eyes, "but I am very glad you found your wand." 'And now, good little Mina, you shall have a wish granted to rewajrd you for your kindness. What shall it be?" "Oh! I could not think of anything Just now," said Mina. "I have plenty to eat and I am not in real need of anything, thank you, kind fairy." "You are the first mortal to whom I have offered a wish that did not take it at once," said the fairy, "so Mina, good girl, I will leave with you that which will never leave you a perpetually granted wish." With these words the little fairy disappeared, leaving poor Mina in a state of wonderment, for she had not the least idea what the fairy had meant by-her last words. "I'll go to sleep; it "will not hurt

Newspaper Syndicate, New York, me, any way, for fairies are always kind and I have a hard day's work to do tomorrow," said Mina. In the morning the sun was shining brightly and Mina hurriedly dressed and cooked her breakfast, for she had to go to the city with her vegetables that day. Mina harnessed her donkey to his little cart and filled her cart full of nice green vegetables. If Mina had been like some folks she would have wished she did not have to go to town or that her vegetables were all sold, and then she would have found -out what the fairy had given to her, .but not one wish did she make until she was returning from the city with an empty cart and reached the road to her little cottage. By the roadside sat an old woman, and Mina stopped to ask what she could do for her, and when she learned that the old woman had been turned out because she was old and could no longer do the work for the people where she had lived, then Mina said, "I wish my donkey cart was a carriage so I could take you home with me." The little cart disappeared. In its place stood the carriage big enough for the old woman and Mina too. "It is the fairy wish," said Mina. "I don't want to get rid of my donkey, but I do wish I had a pair of horses to draw this carriage." The next instant the donkey stood behind the carriage ready to follow it and in front, stood two handsome black horses. Mina helped the old woman into the carriage and then got in beside her and drove home. "I will have to wish for a stable and barn big enough to care for the horses and carriage," said Mina, as she drove up to her little cottage, but before she had reached there the little shed where her donkey had been stabled had . disappeared and a big building stood In its place. "I dpn't know how many wishes the fairy gave me," thought Mina, but I must have a house bigger than my barn or I will not have room for this old woman." The little cottage disappeared like the shed and a big white house with green blinds stood In its place and when Mina took the old woman inside the house she found a nice comfortable room for her and all the clothes an old lady could wish for or need. But when Mina went into the other bedroom she could not help exclaiming, for on the bed lay a pretty pink

silk" wrapper Such as she had often wished for, and a pair of pink ; silk stockings and slippers were on the floor,.,; ,,,;..,;; ,,.,.,., ...........i...,.1'..,. In the kitchen Mina found a little maid cooking supper and when she looked out of the window a man was caring for the donkey and the horBes. "I shall have to wish for money to pay them," thought Mina. "I wonder if the fairy thought of that!" Mina told the old woman what the fairy had said, and asked her if she thought she would find the money if she wished for it, and the old woman who knew all about fairies and their goodness, told her that the, fairy had meant that Mina should have a perpetually granted wish; that she always would get what she wished for and never need worry about anything again.
