Author of Fairy Tales
The great writer of fulrv tales, Hans-
Anderson, was a very sensitive and
nervous person. The story Is told
that once while the train In which he
was traveling was running at full
speed, the writer suddenly reinem
bered thnt he had a box of matches In
his bag. They might become lighted
and catch Are, or perhaps his papers
might burn, and the baggnge of other
passengers eatcli Are.
Hans was so troubled by the though
of these possibilities that nothin-
would serve lijm but to have the trnti
stopped. Then, the matches being re
moved, he had to pass the time awe;
at a lonely rnllwaj siding until tli-
next train arrived.
