Vain Little Butterfly

THE Blue Butterfly had grown very

_ conceited, and because the birds and the ilowers told her so many

times l, day how delightful she looked with her daintily marked wings, she be- gan to think of nothing else but her own beauty.

One day, when she was lazily flittlng

about in the sunshine, a little buy came running out into the garden.

"Oh, what a pretty butterfly!" he

cried. The Blue Butterfly was delighted, and flew close to let him sae her pretty wings. "Be careful! Be cqrefull" whispered

the Wind. "He‘ll catch you if he can!"

She iiitted gracefully about. but suddenlv she happened io look up, and oh! what was happening? The boy had taken off his cup and was bringing ii down sharply over her. It came so swiftly that she could not escape.

under the cap! The poor Butterfly tlut- tererl about, but saw no way of escape. Stay! The \lVind was hlnwln a corner
