Meanwhile the sun went down
beyond the gulf in blaza of crimson

But this c.amor went on unabated,
for though the market cries subsidized

the difference that this southern wat.r-

the country flock here for taste of

They have their bathing boxes, clam

knew it his strong arm was around her
waist and he had kissed her.
In q few minutes she recovered her
calm, but her dignity had flown. She
was only a weak woman after al, who
was striving to do her plain duty; and she
tried to free herself from the strong young

Poor little Martha hung her head, and
reflected as well as she could. Mother
and father were both dead, and she had
no one to advise or counsel her; all she
could do was to let him have one swift
glance from her downcast eyes, which was
all the answer he needed.

CHRISTMAS MORNING.

Keen blew the wind across the naked void,
Glimmered the snow fields white.
Aweary with longing, doubt and pain, -
watched the silent night
All, mel Joy comes and goes, but grief remains
NV days shall comfort bring;
But bark! Upon the frosty winter air
The Christmas chimngs ring.
And like guilty ghost at breath OF dawn,
MY coward meanings fly;
Echoes again tn adoring song that woke
Beneath Judea's sky.
And sveeter, clearer, louder, chime on chime,
Ring out, o, happy bells!
For every peal with jubilant refrain,
The wondrous tidings tells

Lucindy,'' and she began to cry, where
upon Jabex hurried OF.
The next morning Jabez was gone, no
one knew where, and the whole farm
seemed to want him back; though it was
monday, there was no work done, ana
Mr.. and Mrs. Hemphiu sat dejectly in the
sbeSt ROOM"
Father said at last, knocking the
ashes out of his pipe:
II knowed Saturday that sumpin was
up, but / never guessed what, and I'm
blamed if l amt sorry for him to so and
take up with that shiftless Lucindy, when
he might a. had Marthy, only for your
bein' so sot agin' ,tho1n poor little young
sters; and think Marthy was a-doin' her
duty. I'm blamed sorry"
3Mr. Hemphill, don't swear, and don't
say broke off the match. l never done
nuthin', only Friday I told Marthy my
opinion about it, and she got mad, and l
s'pose said something that maddened
Jabez, for the next day he went off, and
l s'pose he asked Lucindy.
ooh, what on earth 4ha1l do? He is
such good boy, and to throw himself
away so!''
sWell, if you told her your mind in the
same way you tell it to me don't blame
Marthy bit for gittin' mad"
At this juncture Mrs. Hemphiu gave
way to tears, until the noise of wheels on
the gravel outside aroused them both, and
they looked out to see Jabez and Martha
both looking very happy in the buggy
and Martha was not in mourning, and
something glittered on her wedding fin
ger.
"Mother, father, let me introduce to
you Mrs. Martha Hemphiu. l hope you
will be pleased to form her acquaint-
ance.'
"Pleased amt no word, Jabez," said
his mother, who caught happy little
Martha in her rather long arms, and the
father shook Jabez's hands like pump
handles, while he tried hard to speak
without tears.
After a while everything was explained,
and it was a merry Christmas dinner
to which they all sat down the next
day. Mrs Hemphill, ST., said she was
thankful above everything that Martha
had upheld her principle, and she added
soto voce, and saved her from that awful

Christmas.

AS concentrating the birth of the
founder of the Christian religion, it is a
religious feast. But in the popular ap-
prehension its religious character has
been superseded by, its social and char
table significance. 1t has become the
feast of good fellowship in the highest
sense-good fellowship with religious
sanction. Nominally it is the birthday of
the founder of Christianity. Practically
it is the day of St. Nicholas, the feast of
Santa Claus, the patron of all children

''I-I THOUGHT YOU LIKED MARTHY!'

"1--1 THOUGHT YOU LIKED MARTHY!'
One long embrace, and one shy, sweet
kiss ratified this silent promise.
''Put on that pretty lilac dress, Martie,
Monday morning, and meet me at 3
o'clock just beyond the Swayle brook, and
in one hour we will be one, and say moth
ing to anybody. Oh, yes; one other
thing. Will you trust the children to mo
to bring up? Will you give them into my
guardianship completely? Answer yes,
without question"
''Why certainly. Since wei
"All right. Now must really go, for
there's a thousand things to do. You
will be there?'' and as she answered yes,
he caught her plump little form to his
heart again, and kissed her again for
goodby; and he leaped the fence at a
bound, and in a few minutes was at home
about his ''chOres,' with a light heart, for
he loved Martie truly and well, and he
now saw his way to happiness with the
one girl he loved.
Sunday he went away in the morning,
and was gone all day, and only returned
in time for supper.
After the table was cleared, and Mrs.
Hemphill sat down to rest, with clean
pocket handkerchief folded over her knees,
to save her black silk dress, and her Bible
in her hands, for she always held her
Bible thus every Sunday evening, though
no one could remember ever seeing her
read in it, Jabez arose from his seat and
walked up and down the room in silence
His mother watched him uneasily.
At last he spoke:
''Mother, am thinking of getting mar
ried.''
1t was out at last!
Her fear was well placed, and the shock
was great.
ssMother, how woul6 you like Lucinda
Rosencrants for a daughter?'
In all her imaginings she had never let
her fancy run riot to an extent that could
have permitted Lucinda Rosencrants to
enter her head as the possible choice OF
her son.
Pretty enough, but coarse and ignorant;
daughter of two idle, dssolute parents;
lazy and slovenly herself, and fond of
dancing and party going, and all the very
things that Mrs. Hemphill abhorred, it is
no wonder that she sat pale and shocked
and speechless.
Of all the girls that she knew, or had
ever heard of, Lucinda was the last one
that she would have chosen, and she could
not bear it.
'T-I thought you liked Marthy," she
said, TREMENDOUSLY.
IT do like Martha; but you said SO
muck''-
81 rather you'd picked her OUT
"She refused me-"
"Refused you! l guess you're as good
as she any time. Any gal ought to be
proud to get YOU"
"She did not think SO, and her refusal
did not hurt me long. What do you
think of Lucinda?"
ooh, Jabez, don't ask. l never can
give In to your marrying into that awful
family. Just think of what set they
ere, and Lucinda'll be just the same.
There amt another girl that can hold a
candle to Marthy if it wasn't for them

The NIummers of Scotland.

The mummers, guisers or guizards oc
:upied a prominent place in all Christmas
,bservances in the early history of Scot
and, and this form of Christmas amuse
nent was evidently survival from the
Roman Saturnalia. In 1877 there were
uummers on Christmas Eve in London
Later masking, or ''mumming," was for
hidden by royal edict. An old piece Of
verse anent the mummers reads:
To shorten winters sadness,
See where the folks with gladness
Disguised are all a-coming,
Right wantonly a-mumming,
Fa la.
Whilst youthful sports are lasting,
To feasting turn out fasting.
With revels and with wassails,
Make grief and care our vassals,
Fa la.
For youth 1t well beseemeth.
That pleasure he esteemerh,
And sullen age is hated
That mirth would have abated,
