The Tailor and the Bear (4) 

  " If you were old, I should have to say the colours were black and white, like the clothes call pepper and salt, " replied one.

  " You are wrong, " said the Princess, and she turned to the second.

  " The hairs are neither black nor white, " he replied, " but brown and red, like my father's holiday coat. "

  " Wrong again, " said the Princess, turning to the third ; " most certainly these are not the answers

  Then the little Tailor stepped boldly forward, and said, " The Princess has a silver and a golden hair on her head, and they, of course, are of different colours. "

   When the Princess heard this she turned pale, and almost fell down with fright.

  The little Tailor had guessed her riddle, and she had firmly believed that not a man upon earth could do so.
