A First Baby.

There is one young couple in Chica-
60 who are to open an exchange where
they may get rid of some surperfuous
jewelry they have on hand, or, rather
haven't on hand, because the hand is
too small for the jewelry. There is a
new baby in the family, and before it
was week old they received small
box from California, and upon opening
it found thin gold ring with "Wel-
come, little stranger" engraved on the
inside.
It's much too large for the baby, and
not large enough to fit me, said the
young mother, plaintively; but on the
principle that it would keep she put it
away, and dictated letter of thanks to
the sender.
The next day the babes aunt sent it
lovely little ring set in pearls, with
"Our pet'' marked on the inner circle.
Then its grandmother sent ring made
out of piece ofgold found in dear grand
pas pocket after his death, and it had
two sets of initials and a Bible text in.
scribed on it.
But the next ring was from school
friend, and was a wide band of gold
with quarter bangle. "Ofsuch is the
kingdom of Heaven" was condensed
into it, quite discernable with micro
scope, however.
Then the baby's uncle got home from
New York, and when he had kissed the
new arrival he took something out OF
his vest pocket:
81 couldn't see thing to get the kid
except this" he said as he opened a
tiny box. 81 knew nobody would
think of giving such little shaver a
ring, so got one. Hello, sis, what's
the matter!"
The young mother had tainted. But
they restored her in time to see her dear
old aunt Letitia, who had stopped over
on her way to the Pacific coast to see
that blessed baby.
"Not ring on her dear, sweet little
hands," said the old lady, severely
"Aunty Lisby didn't forget her tootsey'
wootsey." And she slipped cameo
circlet on the small red finger. 1t ha:
a Greek word engraved on it which
means "Hope."
"There's the postman's ring" said
the nurse one day as she looked out o.
the window.
Giles bringing another off-ring tc
the baby; I know it," said the pale
young mother.
But they carry them to another room
now, where they are numbered, sorted
out and put away in regular order
shining mementoes of the awful want O.
originality which is usually possessed
! by the friends of first baby.

Ra%They were strolling in the green
fields and he was telling her of his love.
Just as he was on the point of asking
her to marry him, cow which was
concealed by bush few feet away,

Did the girl faint away, or run away,
or scream? No. She gave one little
imperceptible start and simply re-
