Presently the deacons hustled and

expected of her-that she would choose
Mr.. Pasco as king-and she hated him
SO! If only she might choose Pete! But
he would not be in the line. Aunt

out. After he put her in the chair he
sat down on the pulpit floor back of it.

Bit of Pathos at Christmastide.

There is little girl of who has
proved herself one of the ministering
children not in name only. A few weeks
ago the baby Of the family died. The
children as well as the mother had
looked forward to hanging up the baby S
stocking at Christmas with great deal
of pleasure But the loss of the baby
brought such anguish to the mother that
she decided to have no Christmas cele-
bration of any kind. Last Sunday even
ing, as the family sat in partial dark
ness, recounting their loss with all its
sad circumstances, tender little voice
pierced the gloom:
Mamma, isn't there any Christmas
in heaven?"
"Yes, darling" answered the weep
ing mother ''It is always Christmas
there
''Then why don't you keep it here?:"
persisted the little girl. Jus make
b'lieve baby isn't dead, an hang up her
little stockiu, mamma, an les all have
Christmas jus the same an be happy
like she is. "
The child's wisdom prevailed against
the unreasoning sorrow of the mother.
and the little ones are happy and busy
filling the stocking of the baby who will
keep Christmas in heaven.

THE GAME OF SNAPDRAGON.
Players Must BE Quick and Not Mind
Burned Fingers.

Players Must BE Quick and Not Mind
Burned Fingers.
Few "Christmas gambols" exist i'll
their original form. But the old games
modified to suit modern taste as we'll
as the new ones are just as full of fun
and are entered into by the young folks
nowadays with as much zest as were
the rougher gambols over which in old
England the Lord of Misrule" pre-
sided. Although the authority of this
lord was generally acknowledged at
Christmas merrymakings 200 Or 800
years ago, and he made things very live
ly, such disorders finally crept into his
brief burlesque reign that he was sup
pressed.
One Of the most quiet and genial of
the gambols over which he was master
has been handed down under the name
of "Snapdragon. Raisins are put into
large bowl. covered with spirit, which
is ignited. Lights in the room are ex-
tinguished, and each one attempts in
turn to grasp a raisin, feat requiring
some skill and courage Meanwhile an
appropriate accompaniment is the 'Song
of the Snapdragon, beginning thus:
Here he comes with flaming bowl
Don't he mean to take his toll?
Snip! Snap! Dragon!
Take care you don't take too much,
Be not greedy in your clutch,
Snip! Snap! Dragon!
With his blue and tapping tongue
Many of you will be stung.

Augustus Pasco and Pamela Mills.
Out from the wonder stricken crowd
came shrill cry: 1000! you vilyunl

The next minute small and vicious
looking Daughter Of l Will Arise
streamed up to the throne, clutched the
royal bridegroom and shaking him till
his teeth chartered cried out: II mar

Mr.. Barker put on his most judicial
aspect Pasco's countenance betrayed
his guilt. Nevertheless the minister
asked:

oaSco?'

minor then, and l propose to get mo
divorce next spring-as soon, in fact, as
school is out, '" Mr.. Pasco said, calling
all his grammar to his aid
Den you better wait till you git it

Meacham said, catching his rival round
the waist and sending him sprawling
OH the floor. Then he gathered the sob
bing Nicely i'll his arms and turned to
face the preacher, saying: "Mr. Pas

Then wonderful thing happened
The party outside came in and stood in
half circle, back of Pete and Nicely,
until they were made one, when a
grave gentleman, whom nobody quite
knew, stepped in front Of Bert Wilmer
and Lucy Lee, and in less time than it
takes to write it they had likewise ell
tered tho holy estate of matrimony.
Pete and his boss, it seemed, had plan
ned double runaway. The happenings
OF the evening only precipitated the
crisis

A CHRISTMAS QUEEN.
BY MARTHA M'CULLoCH WILLIAMS.

Aunt Charlotte came sturdily across
the Lee plantation. The fields were all
sere as became mid December Yet in
the flower garden roses, pansies and
chrysanthemums were rapidly unfold
ing in the warm, slow rain, rather
ragged and discolored, to be sure, but
flowers for all that.
"Dem's de ve'y tings fer dressin up
de table," Aunt Charlotte muttered to
herself as she scudded betwixt the bor-
ders and OH to the back porch. Before
she could knock, the hall door opened,
and Mrs. Lee called out:
"Howd'y, Aunt Charlotte? Come
right in my room to the fire You'll
catch your death yet, running about so
in bad weather. Sit down and dry your
feet while you tell ME all the news"
Aunt Charlotte stuck her torn, mud
dy shoes toward the blazing logs fetch
ed a sort of groaning sigh and said:
LA, Miss May, you know l never
hears no news, but dey nor rated it at
church meeting 'istiddy dat ole lady
Brantley wus metty low wild de brown
skeeters, an ole Miss Calishaw's Flo
ence had done runned off an married

"Well, well, she has driven her ducks
to bad market Girls are so foolish.
Oh, did you hear from old Mr.. Pegram?
am told he was badly hurt last week. "
"Yessum; he clumb up de stable lof',
huntin fer de boyses jug er ticker, an
fell through on dat young mule, an do
critter kicked him. So de doctor say de
spine er he back is querrelized.
Dear me! You don't say sop Mrs.
Lee returned.
For an hour the talk slipped along
the channels of local gossip. Aunt Char
lotte knew there was nothing like It'd
bits of news to put Miss May in good
humor. Whatever happened in ten
miles around was reported, with en-
largement and variations, at the color
ed church. Besides Aunt Charlotte her
self was outdoor laundress for some half
dozen families, So of course knew all
about them. When her feet were dry,
she got up, picked her sunbonnet from
the floor and said, balancing herself on
one foot:
"Well, mus be goin. Miss May,
is you got any COLE paper?"
''Let me see. Yes, think-I know
have Do you want some? Are they 60
ing to have another Christmas tree at
the church,"
"Yessum-no'm l does wants some,
but faint fer no Chrismus tree. Dey

where the drapery hid him from the
crowd, but let him look his fill at her
That was her only consolation. If they
tried to make her bodily over to Mr..
Pasco, he was close at hand, and Miss
Lucy and Marse Bert looking in at the
window, ready to give him countenance
for her protection.
At last the march began. Two by
two, a man and woman, they came into
the small clear space before her and
moved around singing:
My Lord called Sister Marthy.
Sister Marthy would not answer
Sister Marthys into de gyarden,
Talin crbout my Lord.
Five minutes of slow, heavy stamp
ing; then came a wild whirl to

Then the words died away to a wild
groaning shriek with a tempest of foot
falls under it. The marchers formed
wheel with the women in the center
and whirled at top speed in front of and
up to the poor distracted queen. The
pastor came, too, with an oily smile,
and put his buggy whip in her hand,
saying: Now, Miss Permeely, hit
your king and lemme set him down up
yere side you. Hit is not good fer
'ooman ter be erlOne, de Scripture says.
Now, shet your eyes an hit de mex who
'er passes. With that he seemed tc
release the whip, yet adroitly flung the
lash arounu Pasco's neck. Instantly
there went up a great laughing shout,
and by the time Nicely had drawn one
sobbing breath the teacher was beside
her, holding her hand The preacher
had drawn book and folded paper
from his pocket and was beginning to
read that the document authorized him

From dear old Santa Claus, who came
Last night-but hush-oh, look!
Here comes the plump and luscious goose
So savory and brown,
A golden promise on dish,
Our cares and fears to drown,
And place on our triumphant brows
A rich though fleeting crown.
Come, let us carve him while he's hot
And breathing fumes Of spice,
And pile the pungent stuffing high
Upon each juicy slice,
And in dream shallops lightly drift
Through tiowery paradise.
And afterward We'll light our pipes
While twilight shades appear,
And when we break the wishbone frail,
Amid the blazing cheer,
Let him who wins wish for us all
A happy, glad New Year.

That in quaint flowers on the wall
In madcap frolic play.
Oh, toss all sorrow to the winds,
For this is Christmas day.

About the chimney blow
And high against the frosted panes
Make minarets of snow
When Christmas cheer this cozy nest
With comfort sets aglow!

While deep within his little heart
The birds of springtime pipe.
