They were young, they after making the kite for the little orphan rabbit, had plenty of paper and paste left over. It was on the ground near where he stood looking first at the butterfly and then at Bunty and then at the little orphan rabbit's kite which was high in the air, like a bird. Only the kite could not fly away because Bunty had hold of the string that was fastened to it. "Now', if you went on Uncle Wiggily as he cut a thin piece of paper and put some paste on one side, you please, my little butterfly friend, hold very still. move your broken wing and I will fa.sten this piece of paper over the hole.

When it drie.s your broken wing can flip and flop and beat the air just as your good wing does and you can move around from flower to flower as you did before." "Oh. how happy I then!" whispered the beautiful creature. Very carefully and gently. Uncle Wiggily pasted'the paper over the hole in the red w'ing which the butterfly held very still and quiet. In about a minute so warm was the sun and so gentle the breeze that blew on the paper and paste, it quite dry.

"Try now," said Uncle Wiggily, "to fly as you did butterfly lifted its tw'o wings, one on each side. The mended wing w'as a little heavier than the other, and a bit stiff and clumsy, but, to the delight of the insect, it found that it could rise in the air almost as well as before. "Oh, joy!" cried the butterfly. I am all right again! I can fly about and gather honey. I suppose," he said with a little smile, "that I look very stylish with a mended but who cares "Who, chuckled Uncle Wiggily.

Just then Baby Bunty gave a loud cry and said; Unkie Wig! I let go the string and now my kite is blowing away! Oh, what shall I "Dear me!" said Mr. Longears, looking at the flying aw'ay kite, sure I know what to do, Baby I the red butterfly, will call a hundred of my butterfly friends.

but he awoke with a melody in his ears which had a magical and unearthly quality unlike any- I thing ne had ever heard. He tried it out on his piano at once and wrote it down before it could escape him. I Word.s came to him too almost out of the air without thought or effort, fitting the melody perfectly. He laughed to himself when it was finished. It was nrobably pretty poor stuff, but just for fun he i copied out the notes and words i again and sent the manu.script of his "dream to a publisher.

Now Pendragon nad never ten a poem or piece of music be' fore in nis life altho he was a com: petent amateur musician. He was delighted and flattered when the publisher wrote him that he liked the song but there would be little money in publishing it. Still he was w'illing to gamble by buying it outright for $11X), which would no doubt be more than Pendragon could net on a royalty basis. It seemed to Pendragon like a gore- geoua price to be accepted for a fun and he accepted nesltation. But he was terribly disappointed when he saw his masterpiece in print.

It was put on cheap paper with a crude picture of a bathing beauty on the cover, having nothing whatever to do with the words or music. It made dragon writhe and he was rather pleased that the song did not sell at all. It was embarrassing, however, when his friends asked him about the piece not to be able to pre.sent them with copies of so he had an edition privately printed at his own expense on good paper and tn a dignified format. He gave a copy to Fortunato, the great tenor, who liked the song so well that he made it part of his regular concert repertoire. But when word of enterprise reached his publisher, he Pendragon warning him not to print or distribute any more copies of the song, a.s he had sold all rights in it and it had been copyrighted by the publisher.

"The said Pendragon. "Does he mean to say that I even print my own song for my own friends? It might be different if I were trying to profit by But as a matter of fact it wpuld have been just the same, as Pen-1 dragon learned when he consulted his lawyer. The publisher, as owner of the copyright, had the exclusive right to copy, publish and distribute the song. After Pendragon parted with the ownership it became a sort of literary orphan. He had no more right, to reprint it than a stranger.

He could not even legally make copies to give away without permission from the publisher. MITCHELL DAWSON. ARMOURS ADJUST SALARIES Larger Amount Cut From Pay of Higher Paid ployes, Officials. CHICAGO. (UP).
