Rex had settled himself comfortably
on the seat, wrapping a warm blanke,
round his chilled form. At first. until
he became accustomed to the faint light
cast by the dim lantern, he thought him
self alone; but presently he saw small
muffied-up figure sitting opposite.
Surprised, he gazed searchingly Mt his
fellow traveller, wondering how any
child, and that child girl, happened to
be there alone.

III ask her presently, Rex thought, his
curiosity aroused
The little girls blue eyes were fixed
wonderingly upon him-eyes that re-
minded him of spring violets; her face
was small and extremely pretty. framed
by lot of golden curls. that fell from

A warm fur cloak almost cnveloped
her tiny form, giving her the air Of some
young princess sitting in state.
She looked so sleepy. the wistful ewes
nearly closed, and her head drooping
YEARLY forward. Rex felt his heart
beat compassionately, and all his boyish
chivalry aroused.
I'm afraid you are not very com
Portable there; why don't you lie on the
seat as | am doing?' he asked after a
long silence.

II should think so indeed; only try. Z"
Rex cried, jumping up to help her.
In few minutes the child was cozily
ensconced on the seat, her head propped
against one of Rex's soft rugs; nor was
it long before both, exhausted by their
journey, lay wrapped in slumber

She is very happy and busy getting a

So | opened the door, and began
quickly to talk about something else, to
make him forget about Sadie. In few
minutes he went out again. guess that
was the only time Sadie was ever glad to
have her papa go away. She was SO
afraid he saw the book, that she could

The coach seemed to pass almost
silently over the ground, the horses
working their way bravely onward, in
| spite of the binding snow which con
tinued to fall
just, however, as they neared the last
village they were to pass, the coach,
wheels caught against waysidc stone
and fell heavily over.
Happily the coachman was thrown far

escaped injury Fearing for his young
passengers he FASTENED to their aid.
He found both unhurt but very fright.

panion, who was weeping bitterly.
Come = come, missile, don't cry:
there is nothing the matter" the coach
man said cheerily, lifting her out. I'VE
will soon get the coach up again.
But this task was not SO easy to ac-
complish. and for nearly ten minutes
Rex stood patiently by holding the girls
small hand in his, not daring to leave
her to help.
I'm afraid we can't do it, one of the
wheels has come off. There must be a
house or something close by. Suppose
we walk on. instead of wasting precious
time hcreY'
Yes; | think that is the wisest plan. ;"
Rex answered.
So, with chattering teeth and numbed
limbs, they marched onward leaving
the tired horses and fallen coach to await
their return.
1t was not long before they caught
sight of faint light cleaning through
the mist
As they neared the spot, they found
the welcome light came from big farm
house, standing amidst a waste of white
fields.
In answer to their knocking, the door
opened and friendly looking farmer
stood on the threshold
Come Income in, my good people;
this is not the night for man or beast to
be out inv' he said in welcoming tones
They entered the huge kitchen, where
a family of happy children sat round
the blazing hearth, listening to brilliant
story told by their mother.
Whilst Mrs. Darwin warmly greeted
the little strangers, the coachman re-
counted his misfortune to the farmer,
who, without hesitation, offered to go
at once to help set the coach to rights.
During their absence, Rex and his
pretty companion sat by the bright fire.
quite at home amongst this cheerful
group.
How came you to be out ON such a
night-Christmas Eve, too?' Mrs. Oar
win asked
You see, we only broke up yesterday
at school, and | was obliged to wait un-
til this morning before taking the coach.
Won't they all be anxious at my non-ar-
rival"
and is this little girl your sister,"
NO; don't even know her" Rex an
swered.
What is your name, and where are
you going?"
The child looked up with bright
smile.
MY name is Cissy Moore, and am
going to visit my Aunt Edith. who lives
in the country-at Edenwell," she said
gravely.

lying back in a huge armchair, an open
book on her lap, though at that moment
her thoughts were wandering far enough
from the story written there.
Her sister, nearly four years the junior
of Edith, sat curled up on the hearth
rug. holding fluffy kitten in her arms,
her eyes fixed drcamily on the blazing
wood.
How late Rex isv' Edie said at
length.
Yes; | suppose the coach has great
difficulty in forcing its way through the
snow. hope it will arrive soon. all the
same, Amy chimed in, rubbing her
check gently against pussy's soft head.
Papa said he might get home by six;
it is nearly half past now

Perhaps it SHOWS harder than ever, 3"
Edie suggested, and slowly rising she
walked towards the window
Drawing the crimson curtains on one
side, she pressed her face close to the
frozen pane, trying to pierce the thick
veil of fallen snow
Il can't see, il is too dark; | don't
even think we could hear the coach, the
snow is SO soft and Deep
With slight shiver Edie dropped the
curtain, turning despondently towards
her sister
Never mind. we must be patient.
wish DIR. Lorne would break up earlier,
it makes Rex arrive SO late; why if any
thing happened to stop the coach, he
would very likely not get here in time
for Christmas.
How HORRIBLE And. oh, Amy, do
you think Aunt Maud will send Cissy
after ALP
Amy shook her dusky head, and
sighed.
Il am afraid not; she wrote and told
mamma it was too far for Cts to come
her"
What shame,'' Edie cried quickly,
throwing her book with angry gesture
across the room.
What is shame? Why this sudden
wrath?' pleasant voice said. and turn
ing, Edie was clasped in her father
arms.
Il was speaking of Cissy. papa;
wish auntic had let her come. .
Perhaps she wanted her at home.
Besides, such a journey would hardly
suit delicate child like your little
cousin"
Il do so want the coach to arrive,
Isn't it very late papa?' Amy asked,
twining her hands around his arm.
We'll, yes, it is rather | was just
wondering whether it would not be bet
ter for me TO go down the road to see if
there is any sign of the coach.
DO, papa, and bring Rex home at
once"
Smilingly Mr. Evans left the room.
and was soon plodding his way through
the deep snow. unheeding the big cold
fakes that whirled around him, cover
ing him with mantle of white.
Heavily fell the snow without, dead
ening every sound of life; within, the
girls nodded over the warm fire, whilst
pussy purred on undisturbed, completing
pretty picture of homely comfort

'Edenwelll and your name is Mooreg
Why, you must be my cousin-Aunt
Maud little girlr' Rex cried eagerly,
catching her hand in his.
Are you really my cousin Rex? Nam
ma told me about you and your two sis
tiers. Edie and Amy
How strange we should have met like
this, and all the time never knowing one

No; because this is the first time

nized you at once" Cissy said gently.
And / YOU But what mite YOU

Amy"
Il am ten, Cissy answered with dig
nifty.
We'll, well. il does seem funny that a
little lady and gentleman should travel a
long journey together. and not find out
each others names. Mrs. Darwin cried
raising her hands in great surprise.
Il did not think to ask, Rex said,
feeling rather foolish
By the time they had eaten hearty
supper, the coachman returned with the
farmer.
All is ready when you are, he said
cheerily rubbing his gloved hands to
make them warm.
Rex quickly donned his hat and coat.
then helped Cissy with hers.
Bidding an affectionate adieu to their
kind hostess, they once more took their
places in the coach, and off they went.
Il wonder Edie never told me you
were going to spend Christmas with us"
Cissy laughed. showing all her pearly
teeth.
Mamma did not decide until last
| night, and then it was too late to send
word. However, the coachman said he
would see me safe with Aunt Edith"
They don't expect you, them"
NO. hope they will like my com

Sleep no longer weighed their eyelids,
the shaking and Mrs Dnrwin's hot coffee
had effectually awakened them.
| During the drive to Edenwell their
talk never tagged. nor did the time seem
long:
Meanwhile Edie and Amy still kept
watch in the empty schoolroom.
The entrance of Mr.. Evans alone dis
turbed them; he had failed to see the
coach. nor had il yet arrived at the
/; neighboring inn.
Il am afraid something has happened
An accident in the snow. perhaps" he
said gravely.
oh, papa You don't think il is lost,
and they can't find the right road. both
girls exclaimed fearfully.

be frozen to death; it is getting colder
every moment
Edie let her head fall against her
fathers shoulder. her eyes full of dread
Amy, more sensitive than her sister, be-
gan to cry quietly
Mrs. Evans entered presently, worried
and grave; SO they waited whilst the
hUirs passed. until, when Mr.. Evans
went with his wife and children to the
door. to glance out into the wild night,
a mufiled sound of wheels coming down
the road sent quick throb OF hope to
each heart
AT last" he cried. starting forward.
The next moment the coach stopped,
and Rex sprang out into his fathers
arms.
"Why, who is thisf' Mr. Evans asked.
as after releasing his boy he became
aware of another smaller figure standing
in the road.
That's Christmas guest, sir; Mrs.
Moore badc me bring her to you. with
best wishes" the coachman said quickly,
advancing with Rex's box in his arms.
Yes, papa, that is Cousin Cissy; she

Amy did not speak, but she kissed her
cousin with tears in her eyes; she had
been thoroughly frightened by her
brothers non-arrival, and now he had
come, bringing their cousin also she felt
too glad to say much.
Just as they were retiring to rest Mr..
Evans suddenly called for them to stay,
opening wide the oaken door
"Harkf" he said solemnly. do you
not hear?'
Softly through the snow-laden air,
borne on angels wings, came the sound
of sweet bells; already Christmas morn
had dawned in peaceful glory.
How glad am we were not forced
to spend Christmas away from home, .
Rex murmured. 1T seems so strange.

Interesting Stories from the Little Ore,

A very great number of what are
called forts, or reaths. are scattered
over Ireland. They are simply small
plateaus of about fifty feet square sur
mounting some slight eminence. An
earthen breastwork fronts the plateau.
Outside this there is ditch some six
feet deep which is banked up on its
farther side.
These forts are attributed by the peo-
pie to the Danes. Why, is inexplicable,
as the historic mind of the uneducated
