Christmas in Sweden.

1t is proclaimed along the streets by
a public crier on the oath of December.
Public trials cease. Private quarrels
must end. Any one violating q law
in this sacred period is liable to three
fold punishment. There must be fires
on all hearths. They must not not go
out in the night. All the old family
plate must be placed on the table. The
friends must go to the table and from
the table singing. The food must be of
the best, and it must be abundant. The
food of all the domestic animals is
doubled Lest some bird may be in
want upon a day so dedicated to love,
sheaves of grain are fastened to high
poles or trees, or are placed on the roof.
On Christmas Eve mysterious persons
call at the door and leave presents.
Youth comes with staff and rags like a
beggar. Some come on horseback in
all forms of disguise. A large bundle
is left which, in the midst of endless
wrappings, contains bracelet or ring
or coin. All is JOY and mystery.
Those who wait upon the table dress as
little maidens. The old earth seems
for the time transformed into a new
planet, and tears and death are ban
ished as though mankind had come to
his paradise.--Prof. Dduid Slcing.

Congressman as Errand Bows.

couple of Iowa members, L observed
them carrying their morning packages
OF letters-great bundles of them. Said
one of them: "This is a very unpleasant

day after day through the departments,

us seem to think either that their cases
take very little attention, or else that to
do this sort of business is q part of ones

the departments every morning with
the greatest of haste to get through the
work that have to attend to myself,
while my private secretary does q great
deal of the same kind of work for me

do, is therc?"

member from Iowa was here, and was
up at the House looking on, when /
asked him if he wouldn't like to be back
here again in his old seat. TO my
amusement he answered that when the
people of Iowa got him to come to
Washington again to do chores for his
board and clothes they would have to
be a, good deal smarter than they are
now. His reply struck me as being
very close to the experiences of every
Congressman who comes here and does
his duty. - Washington letter."

shining, soberly told of his fate. "You
see, he and old man Bascome bought
SOW together year ago last October
They were partners like. The beast
ran wild in the woods This fall they
drove her up to the still house, and she
and her seven shoats lived on the Stops
of the still. Along in early December
Johnson sent word to Bascome to come
over and divide the young stock, as he
wanted to kill his meat. Now, you
know that it would have been but fair,
seeing that Johnson had fed the pigs,
for him to have kept four of the shoats,
but Bascome, he talked him out of four,
and the old man was satisfied with
three. The understanding was that he
was to have the odd pig next year, if
there should be one. Bascome allowed
that there would be one sure. Well,
old woman Johnson, when she heard of
the trade, she allowed there would be
no odd pigs next year, and she put
Johnson up to so and claim the shoat,
or at least one-half of it. The old chap
he went across the ridge to Bascome's
house. 1t is about two miles through
the woods. OF course they fell out,
and johnson beat Bascome with club,
and he yelled for help. You know his
gal Bet? No? She is as big as COW
and as strong as mule. She ran out
of the house, and, gathering stone,
she mashed Johnson in the ribs, and
knocked the wind out of him. He fell
up against the corn house,
and Bet grabbed him by the
goozlestring (windpipe); that settled
him. When 250-pound woman
gets her hand on mans goozlestring
that man has got to do something
mighty sudden, or it's all day with
him." He was silent for an instant,
and gazed moodily out of the car win
dow. / judged from the expression on
his face that he had had experience
with 250-pound women. He cheered a
little shortly, and resuming the, to me,
thrilling story, said: johnson squirmed
away from her and broke for the tim
Der. Bets blood was up, and she took
after him. She set a big yellow hound
on him, and he bit old johnson. Bet
chased him over the ridge, and at every
jump she threw stones at him. She
hit him, too, and the dog tore most of
his clothes off That Bet never stopped
chasing him until the heft of her clothes
was snagged off of her." Musingly he
remarked: "Wimmen is tough custom
ers;" and, after short pause, added !:
'Bet says she can whip the stutfing out
of him in fair fist fight; but Lord !
John, he can't fight no more. He is all
smashed up" Soberly John expressed
his sympathy for old man Johnson.
Neither of them smiled. A vision of a
half-naked man, chased through the
forest by yellow hound and an angry
woman, who unlovingly threw stones at
him, and who encouraged the dog to
disrobe him, and who kept up the chase
until her own clothes were gone. arose
promptly before me, and yelled with
laughter. The two grave Georgians
smiled in sympathy with me, but they
did not see anything funny in the story.

InJudge Tourgee's story, 1Hot Plow-
Shares" crisis occurs in the life
OF the heroine, who is pupil at a
New England boarding-school, which
no doubt had many parallels in real
life during the period so wildly de-
picted. The characteristics of the COM
munity where the school is located are
capitally drawn, as are also the con-
sentative views of the kind hearted
teacher, when the peaceful household
is thrown off its balance by the occur
renee so powerfully sketched in the
following extract:
1T was to this community and 10 this
woman that the report had come. so
well supported that none could doubt,
that a favorite pupil of this exclusive
institution was threefold social leper
-lllegitimate, the daughter of slave
perhaps slave herself-and cursed
with that befouling faint, the blood of
Africa, The metropolitan journals had
brought the news, now fully confirmed,
OF the death of Capt. Hargrova in the
attempt to remove the slaves from
Mallowbanks, together with the fur
ther information, derived from papers
found upon his person that removed all
possible doubt, that the daughter of
George Eighmie and Aida had been
entered as pupil at Beechwood. The
village paper, which was rampantly
Abolition In its tone, had referred to it
with sly touch of qualification at the
position IN which the principal would
find herself combined with really
sympathetic allusion to the young lady
herself Another journal, of opposite
procllvities, published in village few
mules away, had discoursed upon it at
considerable length, taking occasion to
express its entire confidence that Miss
Hunniwell had been imposed upon by
the accomplished kidnapper and the
girl whom he had represented as his
daughter 1t added that the latter
was said to be gifted with rare beauty
which the quadroon sometimes pos
sesses, but was easily recognized as
having colored blood when the fact
was once suggested to an observer.
Three letters had also come bv that
mornings mail to the lady principal,
which brought wildly before her mind
all the horrors of the fact she had
learned. Two of these were from
Southern patrons. They were bitterly
indignant at the fact that their daugh-
tiers had been made the victims of such |
an infamous fraud, and demanded their
instant return to their homes. They
denounced her in unmeasured terms |
for the very sin she hated most-de-
ception. She felt that their anger was |
justified. She was angry herself at |
the imposition which had been prac-
tlced upon her, and utterly appalled, |
at the disgrace which must ensue to |
her beloved seminary.
