our town is a quiet, conservative

A CHRISTMAS CAROL.

r. K *
The heavens are bright on Christmas night
With many twinkling star;
They burn and glow, now high now low,
And their light is shed afar.
They nod and blink with a CHEEKY wink,
As if they wished to say
Be glad, be glad, forget to be sad,
Tomorrow is Christmas Day!"
They sing their song the whole night long,
Till out OF the eastern sky
Out Of the blue, SO steady and true.
Shines down light from on high.
Awondrous light from star so bright,
We watch it and never tire;
Its shining rays entrance our gaze.
And with awe our hearts inspire.
And We seem to hear through the midnight
clear
"A voice of sweetness say
Behold the Star that shone afar
And lighted the shepherds way.
''That showed them the place where in child
ish grace FIR.
The infant Savior lay; ~" .-
And now, as then, is born among men
A glorious Christmas day."

Consumption is one of them. It's

a cure. It's easy to see why. The
medicine that masters scrofula in
one part, is the best remedy for it in
another. 1t IS the best. It's war

ties Of these various emotions. For

Sally Leigh, old Mrs. Gunter's
grand niece, always superintendent
the dressing and decking of the Gun
ter Family Christmas-tree, and this
year she had selected to be her sole
assistant, Joe Hallet, who was old
man Gunter's first cousin, third re-
move.
She had selected him because she
loved him; and as she knew he didn't
care a rap for her, and was terribly
bored by the whole business. she
took a keen delight in boss1ng him
about all the time. She despised
herself for this weakness, but didn' It

Joe was acting his part beautifully.
He could not have been glummer and
less communicative and more Obedi-
ent if he had really been married-a
long time. He did exactly as he Was
told, and occasional groans were all
that betrayed his real feelings.
These only gave an added zest to
Sally's pleasure, and Revenge crept
slyly into the catalogue of emotions
already noted.
The only trouble was, Joe was so
exceedingly docile that in a surpris-
ingly short time the popcorn, orna-
ments, candles, cornucopias and the
lighter presents had been properly
placed amid the branches, and the
heavier articles disposed about the
base.
"Hhat all?" sighed Joe.
ION, mol" cried Sally, cheerfully.
"There are two presents missing."
"Which?' asked Joe, with little in
terest.
"Why, yours to me, and mine to
you, to be sure!"
"What-have you got a present
for me?" asked Joe with surprise.
ooh, never mind" said Sally; 81

"Well, it ought to. There; don't

Sc what a fool you're making of me?"
She seemed about to faint. Joe
held out his arms toward her.
"No, l am not; I was never more
earnest in my life-d-d-darling!"
'"Then it's true! it's true! Joe,"
she whispered as his arms closed
about her; "and you are my present

and Joe was left alone.
He sat down on the box which
supported the trees took from his
pocket a small but rather heavy
package, placed it beside him, and
continued to think.
You see, Joe had been thinking for
some time, for several months, in
fact for nearly two years; and more he
thought, the less able he seemed to
make up his mind. The difficulty
was, he was thinking about Sail and
he was trying to find out if he loved
her ornot
He had as yet arrived at no set
tied conclusion. Sometimes he was
sure he loved her very much; he saw
clearly that it was all 4 mistake, and
that lie loved some one else a great

Then he used to think if she would
only give him some sign of caring
for him it would make everything
much easier. But he knew that she

High Jinks OF a Suave Drummer Ended
BY Little Telegram.
They are telling down East story re-
specting the recent high jinks kicked
up by drummer who regularly visits
towns in Penobscot and Piscataquis
counties. His complete discontinue
was effected in most startling manner
and with disastrous consequences, says
the Lewiston (N1o.) Journal. The drum
mer formed Intimate acquaintance with
young woman in a country village not
Tar from Bangor, and it was not long ere
the neighborS commenced to talk about
Sadie Dash's beau," and to predict a
speedy marriage. The drummer repre-
sented himself as a single gentleman,
possessed agreeable manners and wholly
won the love of the girl and the
confidence of her parents. He fire.
quently remained at Sadie's home
during Sunday, was very attentive,
and, according to the egenerally-aocepted
belief, they were engaged. One day
telegram was brought to the drummer
while he was at the house of his lady
love. He was tarrying in the town
awaiting orders from 1.-THE house." The
girl answered the ring of tho messenger
and re-entered the parlor, holding aloft
the dun-colored missive.
''Do you really want it?" she queried,
half playfully. perhaps it contains
dreadful news"
''Guess not, my dear. It's just line
from the boss. Open it and tell me
which way he wants me to co." yawned
the drummer, as he leisurely folded his
newspaper
The girl tore the envelope, drew forth
and unfoldcd the message. AS she ran
her eye over the written words the ex-
preston of he: face brought the drum
mer to his feet. Before he could speak
she had uttered a stifled squeal and fled
from the room, the crumpled paper fall
ing upon the floor. Our drummer res
cued the scrap and here is what he read:

DON'T TOUCH WIRES.

A Rule That Should BE Taught In Every
School in tho United States.
1t is always best to avoid danger, if
possible; therefore, there is one rule
which ought to be taught in every
school in the United States, and that is
mover lift wiro off the ground. This
rnle, says the New York Ledger, may
prove more valuable than the rule Of
three.
A telegraph wire, no matter how many
messages may be passing over it, is per-
fcctly harmless, but an electric wire is
always deadly. Whom you see wire
hanging from a pole or house or in
any position, it may be a telegraph wiro
or it may be an electric wire, so tho
safest plan Is to let it lie. 1t may not
be dangerous, but it is like loaded
gun-it mag kill you.
If an electric wire lies across your
path, and it becomes absolutely neces-
sary to remove it, bear these points in
mind: So long as the wire is on the
ground it is harmless, no matter what
pressure may be on it, Tho moment it
leaves tho ground it is dangerous. You
can pull the slack with your hand or
foot any distance, so long as tho end
touches the ground, but do not LIT IL.
The instant you do, you become part of
the electric circuit, and the current will
run to the ground through your body
Never mind what your comrades may
cay about your cowardice or timiditv-
don't touch the wires.
