The Robin Joined the Children.

During the Christmas festival in a
church in England the children had
Just finished the first verse Of their
Christmas carol when a clear, rich,
joyous song from a robin burst forth
among the green branches. No one
had seen him, but the minister raised
his hand for silence, and the bird COM
plcted his song. Then the rector, in
great solemnity, opened the Bible and
read:
"'Yea, the sparrow hath found a
house, and the swallow a nest for her.

pray for our daily bread. Snow is all
around, covering the ground and

the good All-Father, in his plying
love and care, guided the tiny wings
hither.

joyous song. Shall not we, with far

She Looked at Him.

Curious stories of proposals and &C
ceptances are current but I think one
deserving perpetuation is that involving
son of that old and exclusive family
who preserve their down. town resi-
dence, and who think it vulgar to spend
anything more than the income of their

sought a moment alone with the lady
of his choice. who was not only very
shy. but had been brought up by the
old fashioned rules. He found his des-
perate opportunity at a dinner one
evening given by a mutual friend. Slip.

Curious Swedish Custom.

A curious custom of the Swedcs, and
one which appears especially peculiar to
Americans, is the adoption of a new
name upon reaching majority. This is
not always, perhaps not generally, done.
but the young Swede feels that he has
as much right to do it as to select his
own trade or occupation. If the name
his father gave him seems too vulgar OF
not romantic enough, he simply drops
it and takes another more to his taste.

Antwerp for this offence, and heavily

Bessie Keim, wrote to the King, be-

prayer was that she might live to see

Samona, in California, so dense with
these roses that the odor from them or
warm, sultry day caused feeling of
peculiar faintness and oppression to the
passerby. This is the effect of the at
tar, which is distilled by the heat and
moist air, and is held suspended, as it
were, in the atmosphere.
There is money in that cause of
faintness aud incidence; but in this
country not only the sweetness, but the
great value of the flower, is wasted on
the desert air. In Northern India the
roses are regularly cultivated. They
are planted in rows in fields. and re.
quire no particular care. When they
begin to bloom they are pluckcd from
the bushes before midday. The work
is done by women and children, who
seem to regard it moro as pleasure than
a pursuit of labor. The rose leaves are
distilled in twice their weight of water,
which is then drawn off into open YES
sells. These are allowed to stand over
night, being covcrd up with cloths to
protect their contents from dirt and in

the water will be covered with a thin

little cry of dismay.
'Pardon me if have startled you," said
courteous voice. "But do you know Of any
place where 1 could find board and
lodging?"
As he spoke, Babette thought of all her
friends; but their houses were so small and
their families so large. With the desire to
help, that was instructive with the girl, she
said impulsively: Come home with me,
sir; perhaps my mother will take you in"
So the two walked down the street in the
dusk, the stranger talking easily: but
Babette, suddenly conscious of her bare feet
and working dress, became silent and en-
barrassed. She was thankful when her
home was reached. A few moments later

ger became an inmate of the neat. frugal

over the coming of "a gran CITY leddy,'
but Kenneth overeame her objections at
last. "She's nae ili-faured, an has whole

cautiously, after Jean McLeod's advent.
Indeed, old Jeanie became very fond Of her

husband.
And to the girl, what a revelation their
CT ming wasl Jean Mcleod was simply fas-
cinatlng to Babette. Her dainty, refined
ways found quick response in the girls
heart, while Miss Mcleod, on her part, grew
to love the sweet-mannered, gentle creature
who seemed a rare plant to be found among
