deeper voices that, like the still water
of river, ever keeps time to more SER
ious doing or thinking. And the tiny
cutter, Just big enough for
two. whose one horse will
almost drive himself; and the big box
rugged TO hold a merry party whose
drive shall end at some suburban nome,
mayhap hospitable home, where the
hours are danced away. And the
sleigh that all day long has giided from
house to house 10 the humble business
OF delivering groceries, but at night Is
changed by some occult power into q
fitting throne for the queen OF some
honest heart. Through all and over all
runs the sheen OF society in It's wider
sense. Hearts as warm and true beat
in one as another OF these various
forms Of the road sleigh; words as light
and meaningless as deep-aud carrying
in their half oreathed syliables the
same sweet meaning flash from one to
the other, and all are only another les
son as to the brotherhood OF men OF
which we hear as much in one class as
in another. The last week has wit
messed some very pretty sleighing par
ties. -.
Next Thursday afternoon at 4 O'Clock
