TWO DREAMS

Up In dismal garret.
Where pOverty's victims 20.
In room with cloth stuffed windDws,
Ana ceiling black and low.
A broken-heaFted widow,
Tears the most bitter went
AS she leaned with love and longing.
Oer hei little ones who slept
For the coming morrow was Christmas,
And many soul was glad
With Joyous expectations,
While she was lone and sad
She hooked at the little stockings
Ihat hung on the blaoken'd wall.
Close TO the battered chimney.
Where Santa Claus would cali.
And she knew that they we're emptv.
ana 20 they would remain.
Unless the prayer she had oHer'd.
Had not been said in vain.
And who had asked the Father.
IN prayer that was sincere.
When loaded with earthly sorrow,
But He lent a willing ear!
Cold were the winds without:
And chill the air within.
Ihe Poor. lone widow shiver'd.
We, gof M her & &eiotthi1g was seant and thin.
TIL the midnight hour toIled.
Ihen she lad herself beside them.
FOR the room was growing cold.

with many a friendly beam
Whlle the widow was deep In glImber.
IN the midst ofa happy dream.
She thought that q glorious angel,
- Win great resplendent wings.
Game down from the heavenly regions
And brought most beautiful things.
A drum for Jonny, the soldier,
A pair OfSkates for Fred
and FOR curley-headed Willie.
A little painted sled
And on the rlckety table
a monster turkey lay;
win cakes, and pies, and candles
Sne a"oke-tWas Christmas Day.
Sheturned TO her little darlings
And breathed a silent prayer.
Then looked at the batter'd chimney
And the empty stockings there.
The rickety little table
Stood as 1t did before:
Then she wept In bitter anguish
When knock came at the door,
She hastily dressed TO answer.
And wondered who IL might be,
fOr none mad come to her ever
Or knew her misery.
Perhaps II was the landlord
Come to collect the rent:
she trembled with deep emotion,
For she had not cen a cent.
She open'd the door dishearten'd.
II was not he who came,
But silyery haired old lady,
Who kindly asked her name
And II she was not the widow
With little children three,
Who struggled for an existence
In the midst OF poverty.
The kind old lady enter'd,
And looked with panied surprise.
When she saw the empty stockings,
The tears came to her eyes
My dream has led me rightly.
And good will have been wrought.
When make this widow happy.
The kind old lady thought.
Then She gave a certain signal
To her servant in the hall
Who brought in meats and candies
For the stockings on the wall.
AND more than the widow had dreamt of
A pair of skates for Fred,
drum for soldier Jonny
And for Willie a painted sled
The fattened turkey also,
AND many useful thing,
Money for rent, and fuel,
To last her till the spring.
Ihen all were peaceful and happy,
The widow and lady too,
and our Father in Heaven blessed them

The solution of the Indian question will
speedily be either the extinction of the In.
dians or their absorption into American
citizenship by means Of the civilizing in.
henees OF education. With the disappear
anee OF game there can no longer remain
Indian hunters or warriors. The days of
the Indian wars are drawing to a close.
There will soon be no room for question as
to the department to which the Indian will
belong In few years all must agree that
he should belong, like every other citizen,
only to himself. The time is not distant
when he should be chiefly cared for by the
clvillzlng department Of the Government,

worm RememberIng.

Now that good times are again upon us
before indulging in extTavagant show it is
worth remembering that no one can enjoy
the .pleasantest surroundings if in bad
health. There are hundreds of miserable
people going about to-day with disorder
ed stomach, liver OF kidneys, or a dry,
hacking cough, and one foot in the grave,
when a scot. bottle of Parker's Ginger
Tonic would do them more good than all
the expensive doctors and quack medi-
cines they have ever tried. 1t ALWAYS

All efforts to render the little one like or.

give an immense amount for the privilege
OF exhibiting the child, but this the pa-
rents would not allow although it was
treated in the presence of prominent phys

AT length the singular being has died, and
the desire on the part of doctors and 9th.
