SOMEBODY.

Somebody crawls into mammals bed
Just at the break of day,
Snnggels up close and whispers loud;
Somebody's come to stay.
Somebody rushes through the house,
Never once shuts door;
Scatters her play things all around
Over the nursery floor;
Climbs on the fence, and tears her clothes
Never a bit cares she
Swings on the gate, and makes mud pies
Who can somebody be-
Somebody looks with rogIish eyes
Up through her tangled hair;
"Somebody's me- she says, but then
Somebody doesn't care. ,,--ro,.

CHRISTMAS CARDS

Prangs Christmas and New Years cards Tor 'hiS
year are handsomer than over before. With every
season they grow more artistic and delicately bcaut
full and less CANDY Artists Of talent do not cohide,
the work of designing these cards beneath them ana
the results of thsr labors dainty and pretty as
10 make them worthy of preservation. Mr. W. II.
Gibsons designs in their mixture of landscape flowers
and foliage are almost beautiful enough to merit
framing. This firm also provide some admirable
poetical calendars and various handsome hover
designs painted on satin md mounted with plush.
Those who do not care to send Christmas cards TO
friends in the country will find an excellent substitute
