the barbed wire fence, and a muff1ed
figure looked in.
A row of stockings we're hanging
within reach, and these we're all filled
to repletion. Then the anger bundles
were placed on the flooc.
Two more trips were made from the
bob-sled to the window, and then the
mufied figure viewed his work with a
chuckle Of satisfaction.
Besides the heap of packages there
was a large turkey, Drowned to the
queens taste, a great bowl Of cranber-
ries and other dainties and substantials
Of various kinds.
Tied to the toe Of the smallest stock
ing In the row was the hideous jump
ing-jack, that was calculated to knock
the spots out Of the baby.
Then the window was softly closed,
and the mufled figure stole away.
The little mules were stopped at the
jaCk-Oak while their master wrote q
word on the sign with a lead-pencn.
Then they hurried away egain, and
Mr.. s. Claws work Was snded.
How can I describe the happy Christ
mas day ct the cabin on the claim?
Suffice to say that for an hour or more
the cabin was more like q small lunatc
asylum than the residence Of a respect
able widow and her children.
Happiness relgned, and the mournful
cadence seemed to be gone from the
! widows voice.
Little Sam reiterated, II knowed
he'd comet" and II told you sol" And
Maggie acknowledged that he had been
right.
The twins, with their mouths full OF
goodies, said little, but the baby waved
his jumping-jack on high aud croaked
his 90 satisfaction.
After dinner little Sam proposed that
they all visit the sign that had brought
them SO much happiness by jogging
Santa Claus memory.
The altered inscription read:
MI. s. Claws did come To wider
Shores"
"You bet he did!'' shouted little Sam.
The jumping-jack danced q Jig In the
air as the baby ierked the string and
echoed, croakingly:
200 bet he did!!,-Golden Days.

Ing fres III broad chimneys, and merry
groups Of c..i,dareu ana somewhere the
branch OF green, in memory OF the new
er-dy1ng love Of him whose natal day
we celebrate.
How beautiful, 1t Is that the sweet
faith Il year by year, renewed in our
children, al they look forward with
love and trust to the joyful time! How
the wonderful spirit OF the time has
touched the hearts Of great writer's
and glorified the literature that deals
with it. Christmas storytelling has
become one Of the loveliest arts Of
modern writer's, and to Dickens we owe
very much Of the beautiful Christmas
sentiment. OF all the MINISTRIES Of the
day, his songs have left most music
In u hearts. How could any one har-
Dor selfish and narrow feelings after
reading those shining pages, through
which we seem to hear the chimes Of
bells, the Christmas carols, the song
Of the steaming kettle, and the pleasant
chirp Of the cricket; over whose pages
we see so many kindly faces and hear
such loving words. We do not care
to shut out the kindly and simple cheer
of these Christmas friends for the
brave and knightly romance Of King
Arthur in his baronial halls; keeping
watch beneath the yule-log beneath The
shadows Of the mistletoe. The old. yule
log has burned to ashes long ago and
has become only q tradition; but thank
God for the love which never goes
out of. fashion; the gracious sweetness
Of Christmas time is just as bright
as In those olden days.-Mrs. Jordan

But Uncle. Jake had slammed the

OF the yard at q rate that threatened
to overset the beb-sled.
The mules, almost flying through the
storm, We're pulled to an abrupt halt
before the lone jack-oak, and their
driver read again the sign nailed to the
trunk. (. -
Then, as the team sped away again,
Uncle Jake smote knee soundly and
gave vent to a roar OF laughter.
"Howdy, Mr.. Claws? ?" he said.
Claspang his hands, he gave them a
hearty shake, as If greeting himself.
The snow had ceased falling when
Uncl Jake again turned the hne-back
mules In at the open gate. The moon
made the long stretches Of prairie look

The mules were stabbed and the nu-
merous bundles were transferred from
the bob-sled to the house.
Then, as Uncle Jake seated himself
at the table where the hot supper
steamed, Aunt Tidy opened the pack
ages.
There were presents for all, from
the widow down to the baby. There,
too. was a jumping-jack, hideous of
features and wonderful OF agility.
That" spoke Uncle Jake, with his
mouth fun, lis for the baby. If it don't

The personality and power Of Bis
marck never had a grander background
than that furnished by the vote Of the
reichstag in favor OF readmitting the
Jesuits into Germany. Never were the
presence and Official influence of the
Iron Chancellor so missed as at the
present time. T~wenty-one years ago
Bismarck sumnrarily checked the In
duence OF the Vatican In German
affairs BY expelling the Jesuits. The
prediction was then made in Berlin

Why Is it that when a man is p<.
On a committee he so often lrdergoe5
= complete transformation? The tmio'
becomes q blusterer; the spring Of gen.
crosby Is suddenly choked up; the
soul of honor is blind to a petty mean
ness; or the courageous in opinion stam-
mers a YES" to any colleague. Is it
that as one Of several a man discloses
his real natures and allows or approves
that which would offend him Is an in
dividual? On the other hand, does the
active Individual relish the thought Of
putting aside the mask and joining in
natural and collective l~aziness? Does
not man. like unto a feathered thing,

Some CL1istlnas Sauce.

Santa Claus. Well, what Of 1t? So
does a cat.
Never look a Christmas gift in tho
cost mark.
A s~tool-pigeon is not the kind that
makes a good Christmas pot-pie.
The turkeys and chickens are Begin
ming to roost high and far off.
With children a Christmas present
beats a Christmas past.
1t is sad to note that the average
Christmas stocking is longer than most
purses.
1t is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive. 1t is likewise more expensive.
Christmas is a golden mile stone in
th Il path q 6n A4AEthha tree Is bent, so Is
the youthful heart made glad.
The Christmas time comes ON apaca
and charity begins to hum.
If q man sits at a banquet too long
he Is quite apt to become dish-puta-
tious.
The best kind Of a Christmas slipper
slipper five dollar bill In your needy
neighbours hand.
Many a good fellow will load I'D on
Christmas In order to fire himself or In
reform resolutions New Years.
When Kris Kringle comes down the
chimney 1t scots Kris and the children

Some will hang up theid stockings on
Christmas eve, and others will hang up
the bartender.
Eternal vigilance is the price of lib
erty, but you better spend your money
for Christmas presents for all that.

to see you by daylight and talk a little
with you. VII you come"

Jack went. It was a beautiful home
In an a%ristocratic quarter and It's lux

look like the palace Of a king.
Mr.. Phillips, the ma whose card he
had taken, assured him that he thought
he did not lose anything by being seen
in the daylight, and that If he would
be true to the convictions he heard
him express the night before, he thought
he could help him carry out the wishes
Of the good father and mother whose

And he did, and in the sweet motheriy
heart of Mrs. Phillips he found q warm
corner which no children Of her own

The years are rolling past and though
when Christmas comes the holy memoir

something on earth knows that there
