GORSE GOLD,
Once upon a time in the long, long ago, there lived a little old gnome. Deep down in the earth he worked, every day, mining for gold to nil the pot at the foot of the rainbow. After many years of patient toil, he at last filled it, and then he eagerly waited to see who would find it. Many came a-seeking, but all passed by without seeing it. The poor old gnome was now very disappointed, for. he thought that his life's work was wasted. One day, however, he had a good idea. Quickly he went to the foot of the rainbow, and, taking the. pot of I glittering gold, he flew away over the hills, scattering it as he went, until it was all gone. But the gold was not lost, for, in .spring, you can see it, covering the hillsides with its bright colour. "LADY OF THE CLOUDS" (13). City.
