THE THREE WISHES.

THE THREE WISHES.

THIS well-known story appears in one of its commonest forms in the tale of “Loppi and Lappi” (Kreutzwald), a quarrelsome couple who are granted three wishes by a fairy. At supper-time the wife wishes for a sausage, which is wished on and off her nose, and the couple remain as poor as before.
