Nora was obdurate.
Mrs. Peabody saw several physicians
and found that nothing but difficult
operation which could not be under
taken for less than $500 could save both
the girls life and limb and she de-
termined If possible to have it per-
formed. To that end she asked her hus-
band if he thought they could spare $500
to help some one in great need, and he
had replied:

1t was but three days until Christ
mas. The weather was cold, crisp and
fine. Mrs. Peabody had all her gifts
ready and everything seemed to prom
Use an unusually pleasant holiday sea-
son. But a cloud which constantly OBJ
truded itself on Mrs. Peabody was the
thought of the little household where
Nora waited for death, and brave, faith
full Biddie Sullivan was at her wash
tub and ironing board, early and late,
to keep the wolf from the door.
"Ive decided to take you in to my con-
iidence," said Mr.. Peabody, land l think

handed her dainty open case in which
were pair of brilliant and exquisite
ly matched solitaires, from the very
best house in the city. This latter
fact, the hallmark" meant much to
Mrs. Peabody, for nothing but the best
from the best satisfied her fastidious
taste.
'How very beautiful All, how good
you are, Erastus!" she exclaimed, her
face glowing with pleasure.
II have wanted them so long. You
don't know how they suit me-" she
continued, as she adjusted the beau
tiful gems and viewed her reflected
self with the utmost satisfaction.
"They do suit you" said Mr. Peabody,
regarding her admiringly. Then sud-
denly the light went out of Mrs. Pea
body's face and she turned from the
mirror.
"Erastus," she said, don't think me
rude, but will you tell me how much
you are to pay for my solitaires?"
Certainly, Josephine, just an even

He needs no castle, nor cave in the cliff,

and enjoyed it as only a person gifted

was scarcely more than child herself.
being but about 16 years of age; but
tradition attaches to her most excellent
Judgment, and a maternal instinct in
calculably strong. Besides did she not
know her boy had been foretold by the
angel? Thou shalt call His name
Jesus, because He shall save His people
from their sins" She might not love
Him the more because of His illustrious
destiny, but her heart could not be
but lifted up in commendable pride at
this reflection, as she gazed for the first
time into His dear, sweet face and His
tiny blue eyes looked wonderingly into
hers. Then the news quickly went
abroad, angels from Heaven bearing
about the tidings of the birth of their
King. They told the shepherds upon the
plains of Salem and the wise men of
the east and all of them entered the lit
tie caravansary of the village of Bethle
hem, and saw the babe and it's mother
lying down in the same room where
were the camels and horses and oxen
OF strangers who had come up to
Jerusalem to be taxed. Angels sang
the praises of the newly born and new
star appeared in the sky. The wise men
brought gifts and laid them at the feet
of the mother.
This was the first Christmas and
Mary was the FIRST person in all the
world to receive Christmas gift, and
hers was infinitely greater in value
than all combined that have been since
received by all the people who have
lived or died. Her gift, the Christ
child; she honored above all the wom-
en- who have lived or died, in being made
the mother of Him who should "be
called Jesus, because He shall save His
people from their sins"
The angel song to the shepherds had
for its burden peace to men of good
will" One could scarcely think of
Christmas that is other than gladstone
and joyous. The clouds may be thick
overhead, while in north countries the
earth may have sheet of snow, and in
the southlands there may be thunder
and rain. But there are warmth, sun
light and gladness in the heart-the
best place in all the world for them. In
the heart birds sing carol songs of joy;
in the heart flowers bloom, leaves are
out upon the trees and velvety grass
covers the hills
o, the Christmas tide-Christ's birth
day, day of all days in the calendar
How hearts glow on this day and warm
each to the other. How strifes and bit
ternesses end, and all cares, from with
out and from within, take on quick
wings and fly far away. How self is
swallowed in love for those about one.
and all become, like the Magi who
visited Jesus, bearers of gifts-glad-
heart gifts that make radiant the
cheeks of donors as well as recipients.
o, the Christ day. Would that the
cheer of the family board, the joyous
home-bringing and the gladness of
the heart might be in every day of the
year. That, indeed, would be bring
ing down of the New Jerusalem from
Heaven to earth; for then there would
be no more sorrow or tears, and wicked
ness and sin would end in the land.

KANSAS IN GREAT LUCK.
A Way discovered For Utilizing Her Jscl
Rabbit Crop.

The Kansas jack rabbit, which from
time immemorial has been accorded the
unauestioncd freedom of the prairics, with
only an occasional jack rabbit roYnd up to
disturb his peaceful possession Of the fields,
henceforth must be ever on the alert, for o
price has been set upon his head.
Thousands upon thousands Of dollars are
thrown away every winter because sports
men do not know that jack rabbit hides
are valuable. Sporting clubs and individ
ual hunters kill many thousands of the
1.-the linbcd jacks every winter simply foi
the sport of killing. Occasionally a cargo
of the.rabbits thus slain is sent 10 the re.
lief committees In the larger cities for
gratuitous distribution among The poor,
and many family in the tenement dis
tricts of the great cities has sat down
thankfully TO stcaming hot dinner of jack
rabbit soup, dish not 10 be scorned by
any lover OF game meats. But, despite the
inroads OF hunters upon the ranks of the
Kansas jack rabbits, they have followed
the Scriptural injunction to increase ano
multiply until they are so numerous IN
some counties as TO be regarded as pests.
A number of dealers in hides in various
cities in Kansas at last have awakened &c
the fact that jack rabbit hides, known IL
commerce as American hare pelts, are In
great demand in the eastern markets, and
notices similar TO the following are appear
ing in many papers throughout the state:
eve will buy nicely handled, cased jack
rabbit skins at 3 cents each; opened OF
damaged, half price; culls and pieces,
cents pound; cotton tails at 5h cents o
pound. Must be perfectly dry and free OF
meat.
The buyers say that these are almost
New York prices. A skilled rabbit hunter
at these prices may easily make s2 a day
besides having his usual sport. The skin,
of the jack rabbits are used for making
hats. The best quality of hats are made
from fur and the fur has heretofore beer
obtained from Australia, where the rabbit,
are successfully disputing the possession ol
the country with the human inhabitants
The skins go through a shaving machine
and the fur is shaved of very close. 1t 1.

years, with several other boys, had the

started, he jumped on the coaster, and
when he thought he had ridden far enough

which held the coaster TO the train, but &c

market continues active. YET while prices
are firm IL Is difficult to work up any
material advance. The bulk of the wool
now being sold is for future use and
the activity of the market IL said TO be
owing TO manufacturers anticipating a
duty on wool. The market for territory
wool Is steady and the reports show
large lines being taken on the secured
basis of 80 and 32 cents for most offerings
of fine medium and fine. while choice
staple lots are commanding "a and 80
cents. The sales Of fleece wools have
been light owing TO number of dealers
