Tin: TWO m.KD-HOVS.
A llcauf ifitl Tale of Germany.
When I was in (lermany, four or
five years ago, I spout several weeks
of the summer time in a small town
among the Thnringain Mountains.
Fins is a range on the borders of Saxony,
something like our (Jreen Mountains
in height ami form, hut much
darker in color, on account of the
thick forest of fir which cover them.
I had visited this region several times
before, and knew not only all the
roads, but most of the foot paths, and
had made some acquaintance .villi the
people, so I felt quite at home among
them, and was tend of taking long
walks up to the ruins of castles on the
peaks, or down in the wild, rocky,

barely suffices to keep them from
wacit. There is not much farming
land, as yoif may suppose. The nu n
cut wood, thn women spin llnx, bleach
linen, and the children gat her berries,
lend cattle on the high mountain pastures,
or act as guides to the summer
travellers. A great many liiul employment
in the manulacture ot toys,
ot which there are several establishments
in this region, producing annu- |
ally many thousands of crying and
speaking dolls, Ideating lambs, barking
dogs and roaring lions.
J'chind the town where 1 lived there
was a spur of mountains, crowned by
the walls ol a castle built bv one of
the dukes who ruled over that part ol
Saxony eight or nine hundred years
ago. Hcyond this ruin the mountain
rest; gradually, until it reached the
highest ridge, about three miles distant.
I/i many places the forest had
been out away, leaving open tracts
where the sweet mountain grass grew
thick and strong, and where there
were always masses of heather, harehells,
foxgloves, and wild pinks. Kvciy
morning* all the cattle of the town
were driven up t<> these pastures, each

ami the sound of so many hundred
l.clls tinkling all :u once made a chime
which could he heard <il a long distance.
One of my favorite walks was to
mount lo the ruined castle and
j?ass beyond it to tlm flowery pasture
slopes, Irom wnieh 1 had a wide view
of the level country to the north, and
the mountain ridges on both sides.
Here it was very pleasant to sit on a
rock, in the euny afternoon, and listen
to the continual sound of bolls whi? h
tilled the air. Sometimes one of the
herd boys would sing, or shout to the
others across the intervening glens,
while the village girls, with baskets of
hark, hunted for berries along the
edges ol the forests. Although so
high oh the mountain the landscape
was never lonely.
One day, during my ramble, I came
upon two smaller herds of cattle, each
tended by a singlo boy. They were
near each other, but not on the same
pasture, for there was a deep hollow
or dell between. Nevertheless they
could plainly see each other, and even
talk whenever thev liked, bv slmnt.imr

a little. I came out of a thicket upon
the clearing on one side of the hollow,
the, herd-hoy tending the cattle nearest
to me was sitting among the grass,
and singing with all ids might the j
German song, commencing:
' Tni, i i, ro!
TlvJ summer's here I know."
His hack was towards me, hut 1
noticed that his elbows were moving
very rapidly, Curious to learn what
lie was doing, I slipped quietly around
some hushes to a point where I could
see him distinctly, and found that he j
was knitting a woolen stocking. Pros- !
cnlly he lifted his head, looked across
the*opposite pasture, and cried out,
'Hans! tho cows!'
I lookod also and saw another boy J
of about the samo age start up and
run after his cattle, the last one of '
which was entering the forests. Then
the boy near me gave a glance at his
own cattle, which wcro quietly graz- |
ing on tlie slope a little below him and
wont on with his knitting. As I ap- '
proached he heard my steps and turned
towards me, a little startled at first;
but he was probably accustomed to

'Ami how much,' I asked him, Mo
you ?ct lor taking care o( the cattle?'
'hruu to have five thallars,' (ahout
lour dollars) lie answered, 'lor the
whole summer; hut it don't go to me;
it's for father. Hut then I make a
good many grosehen hy knitting, and
ttmCa for my winter clothes. Hast year
1 could Imy a coal, and this year I
want to got enough for tiousers, ami
new shoes, h i nee the cattle knows
me so well, I have only to talk and
they mind me; and that, you see,
gives me plenty of time to knit.'
\ .* tPsoe,' 1 said; 'it's a very good arrangement.
I suppose the cattle over
on the other pasture don't know their
hoy? lie has not got them all out ol
the woods yet.'
'Yes, they know him,' said Otto,
'and that's the reason they slip away.
l?ut tlu n cattle mind some persons
heller than others; I've seen that
much.'
Here he stopped talking and com
mcnccd knitting again. I watched!
him a while as lie, rapidly and evenly,
rattled oil the stitches. lie evidently
wanted to make the most of his time.
1 then ftnain looked across the hollow,
when Hans?the other hoy?had Jit
last collected his cows. lie stood on
the top o! a rock, Hinging stones dmvn
the steep slope. When he. had no
more lie stuck his hands in his pockets,
and whistled loudly to draw Otto's attention;
hut the latter pretended not
to hear. Then I hit, '.hem; for the
shadow of* the mountain behind me
was beginning t > creep up the other
side of the valley,
A lew days afterwards 1 went up to
the pasture again, and came, hy
chance, to the head of the little dell
I dividing the two herds. I had been
wandering in the fir-forest, and leached j
the place unexpectedly. There was ii
pleasant view from the spot, and 1 1
seated myself in the shade to rest and i
[enjoy it. The first object that at- I
traded my attention was Otto, knitting
as usual, beside his herd of cows.
Then 1 turned to the oilier side to discover
what Hans was doing. I lis cattle
this time were not straying; hut
neither did he appe.'ir to he minding
them in the least. He was walking
backwards and forwards ou the mountain
side, with Ills eves tivi il iiumi tl i>

ground. Sometimes, where the toj? of
I a rock jirojeeled from llio soil, lie
| would lean over i(, and look along it
from one end to the olher, as if he
| were trying to measure its size; then
he would walk on, pull a blue llowor,
and then a yellow one, look at them
sharply and throw them away. 'What !
i is he alter?' I said to myself. 'Has he
lost something and is trying to lind
j it?1 or are his thoughts so busy with j
| something else that lie dosn'i really
; know what he is about?.'
I watched him for nearly a hall an ,
hour, at the end of which time he
seemed to get tired, for he gave up
j looking about and sat down in the
grass. The cattle were no doubt ac.
. . .
(juamtod with his ways,? (it is astonishing
how much intelligence they
have!) - and they immediately began
to niQve towards the forest, and would
soon have wandered away, bad I not
(leaded tl.em oil" and driven them back.
Then 1 followed them, much to the
surprise of Hans, who had been
aroused by the noise of their bulls as
they ran from me.
'Von don't keep a very good watch,
my hoy!' I said*
Ah he made no answer, f asked,
'have you lost anything?'
lie then said.

He looked confused, turned away
his head, and muttered 'notion.'
This made mo sure he had been
hunting something, and 1 leU a little
curious to know what it was. But
although I asked him again, and offered
to help him hunt it, he would tell
mo nothing, He had a restless and
! rather an unhappy look, quite different
' from the bright, cheerful eyes and
: pleasant countenance of Otto.
His father, he said, worked in a mill

was the wondorlul llower, as lar^c us

was an old kobold, with a white heard,
sitting in a chair beside a large table,
in the middle ol the hail. The!
! shepherd was at once frightened, hut
the kobold looked at, hint with a
| friendly face wnd said, Make what you
want, and don't forget the best!'
So I ho shepherd laid the flower on
the table, and went to work and filled
his pockets with the gold and diamonds.
When he had as much as he
could carry, the kobold said again,
Mon'l forget the best!' ' That, I wo'nt
the shepherd thought to himself, and
look more gold and the biggest diamonds
he could find, and filled his hat
so that lie could scarcely 'stagger under
the load. lie was lo"i\iiig the
hall when the koboM cried out, Mon'l
forget, the best!' Hut ho could not
carry any more, and went on, never
minding. When he reached the door
in tho mountain side, ho heard the
voice again for the last time, 'don't

The next minute he was out. on the
pasture. When lui looked around the
door lisid disappeared; )uh pockets
and hat -grew light all til *neo, and
instead of gold and diamonds lie found
nothing hut dry loaves and pebbles,
lie was as poor as ever, and all ho

sir, do you know what the host was?
Why, it was the ilower which he had
left on the table in the kobolo's h ill.
That was the key-flower. When you
find it and pull it. the door is open to
all the treasures underground. If the
shepherd had kept it the gold and
diamonds would havo stayed so; and
besides, the door would havo heon always
open to him, and ho could then
