But even more was shown from the magic reflector. Yor every one who looked at his image in the shield saw something he had never seen before. Curious it was to watch those who looked and passed on. There came a pretty slip of a girl, who posed in a vain attitude be fore it. But in a moment, with a blush, she turned quickly away. Quite soberly she walked back to her place in the crowd and awaited with inter- _est the next who should venture be- {ore the telltale mirror.

There seemed to be a wonderful at- traction, too, about this radiant shield, for one and all felt impelled to gaze into its depths. The rays from it were like warm hands drawing to it the curious and timid alike. Some went up boldly and with much bra- vado stood gazing at their reflections, while others turned sadly away. The little princess had been a silent observer of all this. A hush fell upon the people as the gallant knight rode over to where she stood. Making a low bow, he said: “wilt your little highness not gaze upon the shield?” “Shall 1, dear monkey?’ asked the little princess, somewhat abashed at the presence of the stranger in armor. “Surely,” he answered, “for is not the owner a worthy knight, and one who would allow no harm to befall you.” etaoin shrdlu emfwyp vbekaqj xz{ififf “hou speakest the truth,” said the knight, looking keenly at the monkey, “ihe shield harmeth none.” So saying, he led the princess be- fore the burnished mirror and with- drew to one side, while her little high- ness looked intently into it.

After each “fix” the calendar would go along until some one discovered that the thing was out a day or a week, or a month, and then some one else would try it. It will be recalled that our own B.
