Well, of course not; and that is ,vhy
this real suuy of what happened In
a vnitor's brisement is so much m ?ire
?vcidcrful than anything that ever
happened to Cinderella.
Little Bertha has had two fairies, all
|gf own. That may be because fairies
are more gwercjajM with their favors
ggaradaya, hut it's probably because
little Berilia is a sad. pale-faced child
with a leg that drags and a story that
touch-?,! a fairy godmother's heart.
The Wry ijoriniother heard about th'.'
Utile withered log and about the piano
which the fir?? fairy had brought Ber?

and make music when s. >. couldn't run
about arlth th? other children, and
UN fr-.iry godmother wondered if there
wasn't something left that sh?? could

NO QUARTER TO ANTIS
Failure to Get Arrested "for
Principle" Dampens Joy
of Organizer.
Miss Mary Donnelly, "Our Mar\ " of the
Hth AaaemUy DtatrlCt, has started to
form a club. Suffrage and sociability are
its objects and true democracy is Its
watchword.
Tin "Q. ('."-short fur Quarter flub?
will hold its Brat meeting within a few
?lav? at Xo. tl West Mth street, but any
Working man or working woman who
wants to ioin needn't wait for the meet
Ins;, but can elo so by sending a quarter,
either in silver or stamps, to the founder
of the club at the above address. That
Is the reason It ,ls called the Q. C-, be?
.aus?- it cf.sts only a quarter to Join; hut
Miss Donnelly says she thinks sln-'ll hitch
an "N" In front of the "(.}," because the
dub will give no quarter to the "antis."
It Is to be hope?l that all wealthy per
sons will take note of the words "work
Ins* man" and "working woman" in the
paragraph telling how to join the Cj. C.
Wealthy persons are not wanteel in this
Club: If John r> Rockefeller or J. Pier*

O. H. P. Helmont were to com?? to Miss
lionn.-lly on their bended knees and offer
her thousand dollar checks In exchittiKe

CORPORAL PUNISHMENT
