ADD! gathered the kiddles up Into his lap, thought for a moment or
two and then told them this story: "There was once a nice little pig
named Porky, bat he was very unhappy because he bad no curl in his'
talL As all the other pigs except his mamma and papa laughed and
made fun of him he left borne one day and said he would never come back
again. He was going through the woods and feeling very homesick and lone
some when he came to an old woman sitting on the stump of a tree, and she
looked very pale and tired.
" 'Madam said the little pig, can I do anything to help you 7' .
" 'Oh, 1 .am so weak and hungry,' she replied, and Porky at once gathered
ber a big lapful of nuts.
"That's very nice of you Indeed.' said the old woman, 'ana I must ao
something for you. 1 am a witch, and If you had called me names or passed
on without helping me I might have changed you into a snake or rrog. as
you are so kind, however, yon may make two wishes and they will be
granted.'
" 'Well. said the pig, 'for one week I would like to be a big hornet and
after that a pig with the longest and curliest tall that any one ever saw,' and
a second later he was a hornet and flying back home to see what was going
on there. And he was Just In time; too, for his mamma and papa wer In trou
ble. They had such long, curly tails that the other pigs were Jealous and
were trying to drive them away, but Porky, who was now a hornet, stung the
wicked fellows until they squealed and ran into their houses to escape him.
And there he kept them all the time, while bis mamma and papa lived outside
and bad all the good things for themselves, now thiey did laugh at their ene
mies! Everv time one of the bad pigs stuck bis head out Porky would sting
it nn tha tins a nnd ha Inst kent them saueallnz ail the time. Sometimes one
would venture out to get a bite to eat, and then the hornet wouia ger on us
hack and ride all about stlnclne the pie all the time.
"Well, on the sixth xlay after Porky had been changed into a hornet nis
enemies were .almost starved to death and ready to be good all the rest of their
lives, so the hornet flew away to wait for his other wish to come true, on tne
seventh dav he found himself a pig again, and, oh. what a tall he hadl It was
longer than his body, with no less than rour oeauuiui cuns in iu ana wuen uo
went back to his home again you should have heard the praise he got The
Dies at once chose him for their king, and he and his mamma and papa lived

Korea, and what has been the result!
That country has been laid on its
back, so to speak in. fact wiped off
the map." Korea is no longer Korea,
the Hermit Kingdom, but She-Sun, the
Land of the Morning Calm. It Is part
of Japan, having Just been annexed by
thfit country. The emperor becomes
Prince Gl and will rank lower than
the Japanese crown prince. The civil
list will not be curtailed, and there
will be more money for the court to
spend,, as there will be fewer retain
ers. Morning calm will be succeeded
by evening cnliu where once Koreu
was, aud another ancient nation has
been smothered out of existence.
