ITO be continued
a GAME FOR THE CHILDREN.

"What in the world is that?" asked the
young folk of Don and Dorry, ard their host
and hostess candily admitted that they hadn't
the slightest idea what it was. They never
had heard of it before.
well then, how can we play it ?" insisted
the little spokes eople.
II don't know" answered Dorry, looking
in a puzzled way At the door.
"All join hands and form circle!" cried a
voice.
Every one arose, and soon the circle stood
expectant.
Your dear great great fairy godmother is
coming to see you" continued the voice
"E5he is slightly deaf, but you must not mind
that
ooh, no, MOI" cried the laughing circle,
mot in the least"
She brings her white gnome with her."
said the invisible speaker, and don't let him
know your names or he will get you into
trouble"
mo, 10, MOI" cried the circle wildly.
A slight stirring WAS heard in the hall, the
door is opened, and in walked the fairy god
mother and her white gnome.
She was tall, much bent old woman, i'll
Il ruflled cap, peaked hat, and q long red
cloak He, the gnome, wore red trousers
and red sleeves. The rest of his body was
dressed in white pillow-case, with arm
holes cut in it. 1t was gathered at his belt; {;
gathered also by red ribbon tied around the
throat; the corners of the pillow-case tied
with narrow ribbon formed his ears, and
there was white bandage over the eyes
and round opening fer his mouth The
godmother dragged in large sack, and the
gnome bore a stick with bells at the end
"Let me into the ring, dears," squeaked
the fairy godmOther.
"Let ne into the ring, dears," growled the
white gnome.
The circle obeyed.
Now, my dears," sQuealked the fairy god
mother, "I've brought you bagfll of lovely
things but, you must know, am under an
enchantment. All l can DO is to let you each
take out a gift when your turn comes, but
when you send me 'Thank-you,' don't let
nv white gnome know who it is, for if he
guesses your name you must put the gift
back without opening the paper. But if he
guesses the wrong name, then you may keep
the gift. SO now begin, one at q time. Keep
the magic circle moving until my gnome
knocks three times"
Around went the circle, eager with fun and
expectation. Suddenly the blinded gnome
pounded three times with his stick, and then
pointed it straight in front of him, jinglng
the little bells Tommy Budd was the
happy youth pointed at
Help yourself, my dear" squeaked the
fairy godmother as she held the sack toward
him. He plunged his arm into the opening
and brought out neat paper parcel.
The National tribune., 1882-04-22

Hey! What did you say, dear? she
squeaked. Take hold of the stick"
Tommy seized the end of the stick, and
said, in harsh tone:
Thank you, ma'a1n."
THAT'S John Stevens" growled the gnorne.
{" Put it back! put it backH
But it wasn't John Stevens, and so Tommy
kept the parcel.
The circle moved again. The gnome
Knocked three times, and this time the stick
pointed to Dorry. She tried to be polite, and
direct her neighbor's hand to it, but the god
mother would not hear of that.
Help yourself, child" she squeaked, and
Dorry did. The paper parcel which she drew
from the sack was so tempting and pretty,
all tied with ribbon, that she really tried very
hard TO disguise the ''Thank-you," but the
gnome was too sharp for her
NO, no." he growled. That's Dorothy
Reeds. Put it back put it back"
And poor Dorry dropped the pretty parcel
into the bag again.
So the merry game went on; some escaped
detection and saved their gifts; some were
detected and lost them; but the godmother
would not suffer those who had parcels to
try again, and therefore, in the course of the
game, those who failed at first succeeded
after while. When all had parcels and
the bag was nearly empty, what did that old
fairy do but straighten up throw of her hat,
cap, false face, and cloak, and if it wasn't
UIcle George himself, very red in the face,
and very glad to be out of his prison. In
stantly enc and all discovered that they had
known all along it was Mr. Reed.
"Ha! ha." they laughed; and now,"
starting in pursuit let's see who the white
gnome is!"
They caught him at the foot of the stairs,
and were not very auch astonished when
Ed. Tyler came to light.
That is splendid game" declared some.
"Grand!" cried Others. Zine" frst-rate,"
glorious" capital" "as good as Christ
mas" said the rest. Then they opened their
parcels, and there was great rejoicing.-!a.

P. S.-Not at all, that commission, if it
does anything will gather the statistics upon
which the tariff will be revised, in order to
satisfy the demands of moderation.
The safety of your especial interest
lies in the tariff not being touched at all, but If
it is revised by the republicans, will Mr.. Up
son be able to save you? He would be power
less, because he has no influence with the re-
publican party and no sympathy from his own
party on this question, and besides it is not
by any means certain that he would vote for
protection on the square ISSUE"
r W.. s. P.:-"What do you think of the

T. SIT will be republican commission,
and the democrats have claimed in opposition
that it is only a measure to delay revision on
the part of the republicans. 1t is sharp
