They say that an ambitious and popular

afternoon this week. She had dinner
party, and had had dress made for the oc-
casion. After the guests had assembled,
she remained in her room. unable to see
them because her dress had not come. Her
husband received them and did so with great
grace and cordiality. With many a sigh he
told them that his wife was suddenly taken
i'll, and it was with difficulty that he had
prohibited her, with the assistance of the
doctor, from coming down to receive her
friends. He said: 81 am fearful every
minute that she will come down anyway"
But he took care not to allow any of her
sympathiZing friends to go and condole with
her. Meanwhile, as the moments sped
away and the dinner cooled and concealed,
the young hostess grew hotter and hotter
as the expected dress remained like a castle
in the air. only an imagination. Finally. a
small boy who had been playing shiny

How Hawks and Owls Eat.

The Atlanta Constitution, says: Capt.
Tom Langston, who is one of Atlanta's
most enthusiastic sportsmen, SAYS
Did you ever notice hawk or an owl
preparing to make meal on birdie
The difference in their methods is very
or at, A hawk will first pick all the
feathers off the bird and then tear it to
pieces us it is devourcd. He goes at it
in very systematic and dainty man
ner. Not so with an owl. After kill
ing a bird the owl swallows it whole,
feathers and all He then sits quietly,
and in an hour or so you will see the
owl move his neck about as if he was
trying to untangle knot in it. Then
he will sort OF hump up his back, lower
his head, and the next moment ball
of feathers will roll out OF his mouth.
The operation shows that the owl divests
the bird of its feathers after swallow
ing it while the hawk plucks out every
feather and quill before he takes bite.

TITO'S LETTER.
What the Boy Wrote TO SANTA Claus.

1t is the night before Christmas and
long past Titos bedtime, yet there he
lies on the rug before the fire, watching
the flames as they flicker and flash.
''They are queer lot, thought he :;
"one cannot trust 'em any better than
the Others" and his eyes flashed a
strange light back at the flames.
"What ails the boy!" thought grand
mamma.
"Come, Tito. go to bed," exclaimed
Aunt Alice, suddenly remembering the
boys presence.
Tito kissed them both good night and
passed out into the hall 1t was square

Just where he had put it two DAYS be-

JAMES CHRISTMAS.
BY HELEN WHITNEY CLARK.

ooh, dear, what lonesome day it
will be for mem
To pretty jamie Cress, Mrs. Simms'
pretentious boarding house was as lone
some and dreary as the Desert of
Sahara.
She had come from her home at Pine
Hill, to try and earn some money to
help her father make the ''last pay
ment" on his forty-ac1e farm; and as
she worked at small miliner shop
down town, and wore plain calico
dresses. day in and day out, with a
cheap black alpaca on Sundays, the
other ladies at Mrs. Simms' looked
coldly at her, or over her, or beyond
her. If they spoke to her at all, it was
in frigid, numb palsy kind of way,
that seemed to chill jamie through and
through, to the very marrow of her
bones.
Miss Verena Gillette, the Boarding
house Oracle, had pronounced jamie a
nobody" after a glance at the slim,
little figure, in the pink calico frock,
with her hair twisted in a mass of gilt
tcring gold, high upon her head.
~ Olu-ldSulOucu. SuccTeu MISS
Verena. ''No more style than dish
PAN"
And her fellow boarders and follow
ers, the Widow Dashaway. Miss Adalina
Duffy, and the two Miss Bobbs, at once
took their cue and turned up their
noses at poor, homesick jamie, who felt
forlorn enough in her new position
among cold hearted strangers.
However, she was not compelled to
see much of them outside of meal times,
excepting on Sundays, or other holt
days; for the rest had their places of
business rs well as herself.
Miss Verena Gillette, with all her
airs and graces was "saleslady" in
Griggs e. Gritlshawe's Mercantile EN-
porium on Broadway; Adalina Duffy
was cashier at restaurant and the
Widow Dashaway was a teacher in n
kindergarten school.
AS for the masculine portion of the
boarders, they were of no avail I'D

in this position for a moment and then
jumped up and began dancing around
the envelope in the widest, giddiest
dance.
"Clapm went the hands of old
Grudge, who always seemed to lead the
rest of the men, and the dance came
suddenly to an end.
The old clock in the hall was Just
striking the midnight hour Chippy
had his mouth wide open, SO he should
be ready to talk the moment 1t should
finish striking twelve.
s'Every Christmas that boy wants
more things than he ever did before, {"
he began, in voice that sounded like
tiny silver pellets falling in wine glass.
Look at 'em, Grudge!" and Chippy
began marching slowly up the list of
things which Tito had written down in
his letter to Santa Claus, and which now
lay spread out in the moonlight on the
porch before these little chaps, who had
promised Tito in dream or somewhere
else, that they would carry to Santa
Claus for him.
But old Grudge didn't stop to reply.
He reached out and caught the tail of
Chippy's coat and dragged him off the
letter and sat him down where he be-
longed, which certainly was not prone
nading up and down letter which
Others were trying to read.
"Please bring me a-what-?" said
Chippy, stretching his neck over
Grudge's shoulder and Ill ally cushing
his head between the ola '.:an's ar, and
his sides. "a 'hektographp What
under the sun is hektograph Some
thing for a sore throat, l guess; he must
take lots of colds falling asleep as he
does, pretty much anywhere"
"Also an eight by ten Photographic
camera" read old Grudge, in a voice
that sounded like six grained silver pei
lets falling in wine glass.
''He seems to be very fond of gratis, "
remarked Chippy, "mebbe he intends
to start show"
"Also pair of roller skates" con-
tinued old Grudge.
''Also rifle.
"Also box of tools.'
''Better send him everything, and give
what's left to everybody else," said
Chippy.
"Well, we must be off," drudge said
quickly. 81 don't believe Tito will get
'em ALL but he's pretty sure to have
some of 'em; he's a very good little
chap" Grudge said this very slowly
and looked hard at Chippy, who had
time to turn somersault between each
word and he didn't neglect his chance
Down the avenue danced the little
crowd, carrying the letter. Sometimes
the blue six would have it, sometimes
the red six. Just as they were disap-
pearing into the main road Tito awoke
to find himself in his own little bed,
with the morning star wishing him a
good morning. How quickly he brushed
the sleep from his eyes! How he flew
down stairs to the hall, tumbling over
Margaret's dust pan and brush, which

them in the oven to heat, so that she
could warm her bed with them. The
heat generated steam from the wet
