THE LITTLE FOLKS.

By MRS. EDWARD HEY1z2s.

Said Mistress Robin Red. as she eraued her
Il for one. do not like this windy weather.
IL blows my nest about, almost turns it inside
And I cannot keep in place a single feather.
Now once above my head was charming,
leaIy shed,
Where the sun and the rain could not harm
US.
But the intdn n its might came upon it in the
How the roaring and the rocking did alarm ms.
aAnd before the next new day every leaf was
From me Tree Where all our broOdlings grew
their feathers;
Next win come the frost and snow, so I think
To some country whore there's not so many
Weathsrs
In a deep and manly voice, said the good mate
Your management has ever been the best,
So, while On this bough we rock, summon forth
We viii put their youthful pinions to the
test ma am
From the Ieaaess. apple tree came the signal
And away, and away few the robins, every
Though It's sad to see them go, they viii come
And Be Welcome as the springtiroe and the
sun.
En- r0ltfe Robin sings;
Fly Iast ana ny Iasteri my own pretty mate,
Speed on speed on, we have tarried too late
Already the north wind is blowing.
The fierce Ice King has loOsed his chains,
He comes full gauOp across the % aims.
Tomorrow it may be snOwingi
Then nv o uy yOn gray beard sky
Has hEuden the sun from our sight,
Fly on to green bowers, and fair, sweet flowers
And the sunshine, warm and bright"

but it looks rather too assertive and for
ward.
Fur is nowadays worn for decoration
in cities where the temperature doesn't
dictate it for warmth, and so it is as we'll
to give some rules of good taste concern
ing it. PrOnoUn ICED blondes should we AZ
seaIskin; black haired beauties, silver or
blue fox or gray astrakhan; and red
haired ones, black astrakhan or some
dark fur that is not very deep IN the pelt.
Fur is always pretty in winter and far
more suitable for ballroom wear than
flowers, when the snow is on the ground
and the frost on the WlndOW-panes IS
making even the artificial roses look
nipped and WiJhered. There Is a kind OF
morality In dress, and suitability IN all
things. If flowers are worn at all IN
February they should be those sthat are
naturally procUrabIe in winter. The fur
ornaments SO much in vogue this winter
entirely prevent any diminutiOn in the
cost of dresses, Notwithstanding the sim
pIicity Of the styles adopted for these
fur trimmed costumes, a simplicity that
requires all the accuracy and perfection
of cut and workmanship that mark the
taIlOr-made dress. No fur is too costly
or beautiful for the purpose, but fashlOn
faYOrs some few kinds above others.
Beaver ranks first, black astrakhan fol-
lows. and black Siberian fox is almost
equally popular.
I was writing of an increase of jaunti-
ness in fair pedestrians as observed in
the streets, and a faithful portrait in evil
dence is presented in the second picture.
The girl was not much if any more than
sweet siXteen-Or shall we call her tar"
sixteen, owing to what we might also
term her "gal1us" air-and folks turned
to look twice at her. A unique hat, or
cap, was fastened to one side of her head,
her hair fell loose, and her whole make
up was excessively picturesque. Need
add that she was a soubrette actress
But even our quieter women OF fashion
might well reform their millinery. The
present bonnet, which is only an orna-
ment and not a covering, is utterly IN

He Turned a somersauIt.


Bob PendIeton was walking slowly
along one of the principal business
streets of the big city where he lived.
There were very few people IN it at the
time, for the City Hall clock had struck
the hour of noon ten minutes before,
and that hour calls, as you know, most
people to lunch.
Bob had his cap pulled down over
his forehead almost to his eyes, and his
face wore a serious, thoughtful ex-
preston. The fact is, Bob was in
trouble. The firm with which he had
been ever since he was u years old
he was now 14-had failed the last of
October, and although a whole month
had passed since then, Bob had not
found another situation. There seemed
to be fifty to one hundred boys for
every place that offered. "Why don't
some of those fellows go out West ?"
grOWled Bob as he sauntered along,
and give the fellows that can't go out
West chance? And what did our
house want to bust up for? I thought
it would last forever and ever and in
few years I'd be Mr.. Robert Pendle-
ton, the junior partner. But it's gone
up in balloon, boys, and left me here
without a cent in any of my pockets.
And I want shoes and a winter suit,
and Christmas is coming, and L prom
ised little sister a new cloak and a doll,
and a. But, there, what's the use
of grumbling? That won't help me
any. And grandpOp used to say don't
take any more care on your shoulders
than you can kick off at your heels
So here goes for kicking mine off, and
then for another search for some one
who wants to employ a No. 1 gO-ahead-
frst-class Yankee boy"
And, as he finished his very modes
description of himself, Bob looked
around him, and finding 40 one within
half block, settled his cap on the
back of his head and made ready to
run a sOmersault along the middle of
the sidewalk. "Houp ap he cried,
and over he went and planted both of
his feet Just below what had once been
the waist of a stout, niddle-aged gen
tleman, who was coming hastily around
the corner.
"Ugb-ugb!" grunted the stout gen
tIeman, as he staggered backward, and
then, looking severely at Bob, who was
now in a proper position, he said: What
do you mean, you young scOUndrel, by
nearly knocking me down Is the mid
die of the sidewalk in a busy street
the place for your circus tricks? What
do you mean, 1 sRy?"
'I'n sure I beg your pardon, sir, re
piled Bob, taking off his cap, "but I
didn't see you coming"
x. 81 don't suppose you did, snapped
the stout gentleman, "and I don't see
how you could, unless you had eyes
like a crabs set on the ends Of long
what-do-yOu-ca -ems,'
Il think they're called foot-staIks, %
said Bob, humbIy.
cob! you do, do you?" said the gen
tleman, and he began to laugh. Well,
L believe you're right. But what in
the world possessed such nice-look-
ing boy as you are to be turing somer-
saults in a business street at this hour
Of the day? ?"
And Bob, walking by his side as he
took his way to the bank of which he
was President, told him all about it..
And the result was that Robert Pen
dleton got a good situation, and little
sister got her doll and jacket.

ALBREoHT's SONG.

Ny love has eyes like the roe,
And q voice like the wood doves call /;
While her bosom is white as the snow
Of the foam on the torrents fall.
Fine her hair as the mist
By the sun golden kissed,
And my heart she holds in its thrall.
My love has lips like the glow
OF rubies red from the mine;
And her Chances thrill me so,
For her I'd life resign.
For their fire makes my heart
Wake TO tremble and start
With passion ne words may divine.
Ny love has throat like the swan
That haunts the river reeds;
Not shapelier the dappled faWn
That feeds in the flower-set meads;
When I clasp her no bliss
Has all earth like her kiss,
No sweetness her sweetness exceeds.
