BABY'S STOCKING.

Hang up the baby's stocking,
BE sure you don't forget
The dear little dimpled darling,
She meier saw Christmss yet,
But I've told her all about il.
And she opened her big blue eyes,
I'm sure she understands il,
She looked so funny and wise.
Dear what tiny stocking
II doesn't take much to hold
Such little pink toes as baby's,
Away from the frost and cold.
But then for the baby's Christmas,
II would never do at all
Why, Santa wouldn't be looking
For anything half so small
I'll tell You what we can do
I've thought OF the very best plan
III borrow u stocking Of grandma,
The longest that ever can:
You'll hang it by mine dear mother,
Right here, in the corner, so,
And write letter to Santa,
And iasten it ON the toe.
Write, "This is the baby's stocking
That hangs in the corner, here
You never have seen her, Santa,
For she only came this year
But She's The blessedest darling
And, Santa, before you 90,
Just cram her stocking with goodies,
from the top clean down TO the toe. ="

WATER AND WINE.
[Boston Commercial RuIletin. !


A story is told OF two well.knowI

table, the latter particularly requested
to taste Of very choice wine which tn,
host sent him, and give his opinion. Tn,
man of taste supped from his glass. SCI
it down, and resumed conversation with
his next neighbor at the board. The
host, obs wing this, took the tiss5 op )r
tunity of challenging his guest for anopin

he was bound to show how lallaclous wer,

Beeswing looked at the glass without

"Well, now said the host, II wish
you would really give me your honest

BY this time the attention Of the whole
table was directed to the dialogue. "Blt

name was recorded among the patrons of
the Hotel Splendide. 1t was given out
that he had come over to remove to New
York the body of James N. Sweeny, who
died few weeks before, but there we're
several American loiterers about Paris
who claimed to know that it was the liv-

Bradley was empowered to deal. Brad.

For a good while the Centennial zeal and
impulse was confined to Philadelphia, aud
rival cities CANNED IL with faint praise II they
did not give Ii the positive cold shoulder
Now, however, the fact is generally recog-
uized that the exhibition must be made a
success for the credit Of the country, and the
New York Times makes a strong appeal for
more state aid and individual effort in be-
half of the Centennial. There is danger, IL
intimates, OF unreadiness to receive our
guests, in response to invitations to foreign
nations, sent out by the National Govern
mont, ard under the authorization Of Con-
gress. The project, IL says, is now simply a
national enterprise. So far as foreigners are
concerned, il is a matter purely within the
management OF the United States Govern
ment. Therefore, every State has its share
of interest In the success OF the undertaking.
Every public-spirited and patriotic citizen
should feel that the honor OF his country is,
to some degree, bound up in the prosperity
OF the Exposition.
