Princess I\ags 

 and Tatters 



By Harriet T. Comstock 



The Princess was not a real one. She 

 just made-believe she was a princess, but 

 everyone looked admiringly at her. There 

 must have been some magic in it for she 

 helped, never mind how, to find a little 

 boy's grandfather for him, and she found 

 her own beautiful garden that she had 

 never really seen except in dreams. 



Every child will like this story. It is 

 written in the author's most charming 

 manner. Many children have read Mrs. 

 Comstock's " Molly the Drummer Boy." 

 This is just as delightful. Illustrated in 

 colors .
