TIM WILKINS'S TWINS.
CHAPTER /.

CHAPTER l.
els it twins?"
Little Tim wilkins cautiously thrust
his head from the parlor-whence he
had been sent by the busy, imperiouS
nurse at n. m. on that blessed day,
and in a timid, anxious voice propound-
ed the above question. The nurse re-
garded him contemptuously for a mo-
ment-you know that it is fact patent
to all that on those occasions the happy
fathers are regarded with contempt and
aversion by every woman in the neigh
borhood-and then unbent from her
dignity sufficient to reply that it was.
Yes, Tim wilkins was actually the
father of bouncing pair of twins |!
The little man seemed to feel at least
six inches taller than before, and softly
closing the door again, he inserted his
hands underneath his coat-tailS and
strutted up and down the small parlor,
looking for all the world like bantam
rooster.
"You may come in, | suppose, y
snapped out the nurse, opening the door
Just VIDE enough 10 denver ner uh-
gracious permission.
At the sound of her voice the weak
little mans assumed loftiness instantly
vanished, the extra six inches of stature
seemed to OoZe out somewhere in the
region of his toes, and he timidly tip
toed into the bedroom where laid the
mother and the little newcomers.
With one eye cautiously fixed on the ar
rogant nurse, who stood on one side,
like Snowman at the door of his booth,
Tim advanced to the bedside and fondly
kissed the pale, weak Susey, and then
turning down the clothes, gazed with
all of fathers love and pride on the
two little Jumps of humanity nesting
there, whom we introduce to the read
ers as Tim Wilkins's twins.
"Take them up, Tim," murmured
the mother, and Tim took up one of the
babies, handling it as if it were some
fragile toy, liable at any moment to
break in his grasp. Nervous and ig-
norant he turned the poor thing about,
and dangled it in such outlandish ways,
that its face speedily grew 10 times red
der than before, its little body straight
ened back, and it gave vent to such a
crv that Tim was startled, and almost
dropped 1t. The nurse came to the res
cue, with a swoop like a hawk,

GRANDNOTHER'S NEW YEARS
LETTER.

l promised to write 20 you, John, know,
4 full account of my visit here;
But somehow, | can't feel scttlcdy yet,
Or used to things that are strange ana
queer,
Katie gave me Il welcome kind,
And maybe her kiss came from her heart
But there seemed II something, know not
what,
Despite her kiss, which kept us apart.
saw her look at the gown | wore,
And the poor old bonnet upon my head,
And guessed the thoughts that her prOuu
heart felt,
Even before word was said.
can not fairly complain, dear John;
Maybe I'm hOmesick away from you;
But-thOugh you may call me foolish, dear
There is something which chills me through
and through.
Katie's husband is tall and fine,
\ wonderful business man, they say;
And I'vc noticed he never has time to kiss
His children or join them at their play
And, speaking of children, the little ones
here
Are not like children when are were young.
JPe never mimicl<ed our elders, John,
Or spoke to the aged with tiippant tongue
haven't described my room to YOU
lisa quiet room on the upper floor
Katie thought it would suit me best
"Out of the way of noise" and, more,
" She doesn't disturb me through the day,
When people call, for she knows I'm old"
Yes, | am old; but my Wits are strong,
And there are some truths which needn't
be told.
This New Years Day Pm sitting alone
dor Katie is busy with friends, you see,
And, having SO much to do and say,
she has no time to rcmemberme);
But can't help thinking of home and you,
And the kitchen fire, a-blazing high,
And the dear old year that has just gone
out
How we watched it in John, you and |.
Iou are sitting now in the old arm chair;
The first glad day of the year has flown;
And the twilight shadows, which gather
fast,
Are shutting you in, dear John, alone.
But my city visit is almost done,
And my tired heart will know no rest
Till. safe in the homestead once again,
lay my head on my husbands breast.

ia. After some statistics relating to
the modern Jews, who, he said, had
shown themselves so alive to the adj
vantages of education that they num-
bered halt the university students,
half the barristers and more than half
the merchants of Vienna, the lecturer
proceeded TO develope a plan which
he said had met with the approval Of
many Jews, and had been communi-
Gated by Mr.. Lawrence Oliphant to
the sultan, who received it favorably,
for establishing Jewish colony on the
east bank of the Jordan.
The plan was to purchase 1900.
600 acres, to introduce a European
element into its government, and to
settle colonies there, either of Jewish
peasant farmers or of Jewish farmers
employing the labor of the indigenous
fellabin. The incursions of the Arabs
were a danger, but might be bought
of. He had sent a circular TO Mr..
Goshen, the new special envoy to Con-
stantinople, who had expressed a deep
interest in the scheme. The lecturer
described the country which was to be
settled as exceedingly fertile, and
identified it with the land allotted to
Reuben. Dan, and the half tribe of
Manassech.
