A WELL-LAD PLAN.

Young Mr.. Tawker was going over
his New Years accounts. His counte-
nance betrayed a fact he would never
confess to Angelica-that love in cot
tage is much more expensive on paper
bearing the head work of grocer or
butcher than on that on which the
young couples make their calculations.
Angelica, perfectly aware of this fact,
had considerably left the room; when
the bills were put away she returned.
"Algernon," she said. 1--WE really must
make some New Years gifts"
Lat, dear, we really must econo-
mize''
''But see what splendid plan I've
devised. You know we received some
lovely things when we were married?"
''Mostly useless ones, though"
1.-THE more suitable for presents.
Well, I've decided to you'll never
guess-to use some of them for New
Years gifts.''
What head you have! But you
must be careful"
81 will. 1 remember just who gave
each one."
Lets do them up at once, then"

Dora; it is too limp to use, SO I'll give

is right and true. You don't care tor

''Yes, do very much. It would

sage and onions, and served with apple
sauce"

give it up. And yoa know that dress
ing gown would fit you elegantly, but
old Ar. Li1npsley is ragged and needs
it more"
''Ue shall have it. And we will be-
gin the New Year poor but honest"
Then those two young people kissed
and made up, while the bell rang out
the want, the care, the sin, rang in the
love of truth and right, and the Limp
skeys were the happier for the appli-
cation of that often misinterpreted
text to do evil that good may come.

and she walked off leaving Jane Ellen
staring at the goose.
1t was New Years eve. Alice and
Horace were only a few feet apart, in
reality, but miles of distance could not
have separated them SO completely.
Horace had tried to explain, but had
been instantly silenced.

TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF.
BY ELISA ARMSTRONG,

The Brownsmiths were preparing to
retire; the parlor clock had been
wound, the window garden covered
with newspaper and the key to the
front door hidden under the mat.

'this is New Years eve."

"and haven't told you how I intend
to begin the year"

best part of the day, as it is"
True; besides, you put back all the
housework."

Indeed you do. You've often
promised to rise earlier, but you never
do"
"And you've often promised to bo

shadow"

"Absurd!"
"Ridiculous!"
They both flounced of to bed with

In the very early morning, Mrs.

dark.

asked in an anxious tone, land was it

'fI'm afraid not Dora was there, and
she recognized it By a place inside

Why, they are the same people for
whom we got up the bazar.'
And for whom helped rattle off the

Its the principle." said Alice, 'it is
demoralizing."
But. my dear, it seems to me tho
principle is the same whether it's in
the church or the saloon. 1t Is to get
something for nothing. I got the

what If it was unlocked? when Mrs
Skynfyntle was almost sure that some
one was stealing her coal.
About to awaken her husband, she
remembered that this was the time to
display her courage. Seizing dressing
gown and slippers, she crept out and
downstairs.
The window was locked, but on re-
turning, as she reached the foot Of the
stairs, she heard some one stealthily
moving about the bedroom. She
listened again; yes, there it was again!
Proud Of vindicating herself, she few

There was scramble at the head Of

Tap, tap, went her little foot; there
were tears in her voice. Horace felt
that he was criminal, yet If she only
would let him explain. He was very
angry.
There was q ring at the door bell.
The two composed themselves to meet
callers. The conventionalities of life
must be observed, and no one must
know that they had quarreled But it
was only boy with a note, and q
package for Mrs. Eversham.
1t was the dressing-gown from the
bazar. The chance taken for Alice had
drawn it. Alice cid not look upon it
with horror. On the contrary, she could
it. But she said coldly as she handed
the handsome garment to Horace:
Your New Years present. I hope
it will tit."
THANK you very much" said Horace,
his eyes sparkling with pleasure, ''but
I thought we were not to give each
other presents this year"

Horace threw back his head and
laughed immoderately.
My dear little wife, he asked when
he could get his breath, ''do you know
the difference between tweedle-dum
and tweedle-dee?"
Il hope 1 know the difference be-
tween an entertainment designed for
charity under the auspices OF the
church and a low rattle with no other
object"
"A charity, my dear; you wouldn't

obtain money for the benefit of a poor
