CHRISTMAS GREETING.

4 Merry Christmas! May your caresi
In golden floods of Joy I've drowned
Forget awhile your worldly wares,
And send the trimming love cups round
The feast Is set. Come young and old,
And laugh awhile at changeless fate;
Secure within the Christmas fold.
Where watchful Love maintains the gate
Strong Love, that lives in spite of care.
And laughs at time. The load OF wears,
Our bitter strife, and cold despair,
Our vain regrets, and idle tears,
Are lost amid Loves cloudless light
All fare alike beneath Loves sway,
And all are welcome-none may slight
The hayward sheep that seek to stay.
All fare alike. the:old.and young. \
The rich and poor. the mean and great,
FROM every land, Of every tongue,
For careful Love makes wide tha gate;
And led by Loves far-reaching light,
They come--a vast, unnumbered throng
Whose hearts are tuned this Xmas night
To sing the endless Christmas song

CHAPTER II.
OVER THE SNOW.

Holiday week had set in heavy and
threatening. It had opened with prom.
Use Of snow, and had closed with its veri.
fcation 80 fast and furious that by
Christmas eve the whole country for
miles around Pketon was wrapped in
one spotless and unbroken mantle. The
sleighing was perfect. Never in the
memory of that much quoted oldest au-
thority in Piketon had it been so good
Our metropolis was alive with excite
ment-like the classic city of Stoke
Pogis, it was "agitated to its center. :"
The sudden Juror for sleighing, added
to the inevitable buzz of holiday prepa-
ration, drove the usually quiet popula-
ton into fever Of action. Every avail
able sleigh, however old, was rooted
from its hiding place; horses accustomed
only to the pillow and the market wagon
pricked up their ears to the unwonted
hi-g' lang! of excited drivers, and even
crockery crates and dry goods boxes
were put upon extemporized runners.
All Piketon, swathed in furs or blank
cts, was bundled into something that
would slide; the road to the Bulls
Eye'-the sedate drovers' tavern five
miles out-was resonant with the merry
music of their bells and the rollicking
laughter Of their occupants, while its
primitive bar room and sanded parlor
,were alike crowded from nipping morn
~ frosty eve.

Phaeton; SO, keeping one eye fixed on

the taut reins until felt safe to straddle
the front seat, and finally brace myself
against the dasher. The gray still kept
his head out and bore steadily On tho

glossy, curly, the fleece Of Kar-Kal-
would saunter in and stand and mediate
over every flower he saw, and always as
if half in vision. And when the vision
was fulfilled and the ideal flower he was
seeking found. he would spread his mat
and sit before it until the setting Of the
sun and then fold up his mat again and
60 home. And the next night, and night
after night, until that particular flower
faded away. he would return to it and
bring his friends in ever-increasing
troops to it. and sit and play the guitar
or lutte before it, and they would alto
gether pray there. and after prayer still
sit before it. slipping sherbet and talk
ing the most hilarious and shocking
scandal late into the moonlight, and so
again every evening until the flower
died. Sometimes by way of a grand
finale the whole company would sud-

made it together with an ode from Hafiz

house is divided into four pens, each to
accommodate ten fowls.
From the floor up three feet the pens
are separated by a partition of boards;
the remainder of the way up to the roof
they are divided off by either lath or
wire-fencing. In the rear of the build

hallway three feet in width. A door
from each pen opens into this hall. The
roosts are in the ends of the pens, next
to the hall, and three feet from the floor.
Under the roosts are two or three wide
matched boards to catch all the drop

a long, low door; through the doorway
the manure is scraped into box on the

place for storage. Eighteen inches be-

self" He, however, recovered and
lived in it nine years with his beloved
Rachel before her death. In 1896 it
was partially destroyed by fire, but was
rebuilt exactly as it had been. The ap-
proach to the house is through long
avenue of immense cedars. The house
is two stories, with a large hall rum
ming through the center, with four very
large rooms on either side, two up and
two downstairs, and one-story wing
of two rooms on either side of the house.
A double gallery supported by six Cor
inthian columns extends across the
front of the house, and the same at the
back.
The hall papering is of the most
gorgeous description, representing the
travels of Telemachus. 1t was pur-
chased in France and is still remarkably
preserved. The devastating finger of
time has been at work upstairs, and its
touches are perceptible at every turn.
