ID help:
Which volume(s) of My Book House contained stories from 1,001 Arabian Nights?
I am looking for the pen & ink illustration of a snake-woman wearing a pearl headdress, which I believe appeared in My Book House.

I have the 1922 ed. of My Book House.  There are two Arabian Nights stories in volume IV,
The Treasure Chest.  They are The Magic Horse, and The Talking Bird. Neither of these stories has a picture of a snake woman.
It could be connected to another story.  The two stories I mentioned are the only ones from Arabian Nights that are listed in the index for the set, which is in volume VI.  Good luck finding Snake Woman.
