The stage had stopped, and there was
the sound O. voices talkin' and laughin'
and of feet hurryin' up the steps. Then
the door opened-no, it was burst open
and in trooped a parcel O. children, and
behind 'em, not fur behind, with her hands
stretched out and the happy tears stream
In down her pretty face, come her daugh-
ter Ellenl
How them two kissed and chung to one
n other, till the children got out o. pa
tience and wouldn't wait no longer for
their turn! Then Uncle Jerry came to the
resky and says, betwixt laughin' and cry
in:
"There, there, children! l guess thatll
dew! It's my turn now" and he took her
to b lounge where she could lay and
rest and still be with 'em all. She pulled
him down to her and kissed him and
whispered:
"Oh, husband, how good you be! You've
made me the happiest woman in the
world!'
Uncle Jerry got away as quick as he
could, and went out to the barn and set
down on the hay cutter and laughed and
wiped his eyes till he was some calmer.
Then he fell on his knees and thanked
God reyerently for shown him before he
lied what true happiness wuz, and how
to get it for himself by bestowin' it on
others.-New York Tribune.

they're different from your wife, and
why? l ask you fair and candid, why
shouldn't she look as happy, be as happy
and make as good a 'pearance every way
as them women? And why is it that she
has took to her bed in the prime o life
and don't wanter live nc longer? For l
find that's about the way 1t is with her"
When Uncle Jerry came back he went
up to the bed and sat down beside his
wife and looked at her. She was asleep,
and Mis- Hopkins thought he must a
realized how pitiful she looked for she
seen him draw his hand acrost his eyes
two or three times on the sly.
Bimeby he got up and went out to Mis-
Hopkins, and, says he:
what was the doctors orders? What
can l do to help ye?"
He ordered nourishin' food, and wine,
and so on" she says, and l guess the
fust thing you may kill a chicken, II
you're minter, and git it ready fer the
broth; then go over to Jim Jackson's and
buy a quart or SO of that Oldest grape
| wine O. his'n. She'll be awake by the
time you get backwith it, l guess"
Uncle Jerry didn't SO much as wink at
mention Of the chicken, but when she
! spoke O. the wine 80 offhand and matter
O. course he drawed in his breath ace or
twice kinder spasmodicky, but he never
| opened his head.
When the broth was ready Uncle Jer-
ry asked If he might take 1t in; SO Mis-
Hopkins filed one of the chiny bowls that
was Aunt Betsey's mars and set it in q
plate with a cracker or two, and he took
EN- along.
The broth was good and strong, and
when Aunt Betsey tasted ont she looked
at her husband real kinder scairt, and,
says she:
"Where did this ere come FROM"
And he 'aughed and says: cts made
out O. one of best Plymouth Rocks
is 1t goodT"
A wonderin', quiverin' smile hogered for
a minute on to her poor face; sic didn't
know what to make ont. But when he
lugged in the jug O. wine and poured ont
a hull half a tumbler full and handed it to
her, her eyes fairly stuck out Of her head
with establishment.
Drink it; it'll do you good" say ne.
'It's jim Jackson's Oldest grape vine
you've heard tell on"
"Why-why, husband! she Whisper O
didn't it cost an awful sight O. money.
"Only SO a gallon" he answered, tryin'
to smile, but lookin' rather CHASTITY. She
slipped it slow, eyein' him over the top o
the tumbler as she done so; but pretty
soon she set it down and spoke again,
awful meachin', and 'pealin', her lips
tremblin' as If she was going to cry.
'I'm sorry to put you to SO much ex-
pense, husband. I'm afraid-I'm afraid

Don'ts About Gifts.

Don't above all things ask the giyer
whether you may exchange her gift.
Don't forget that it is the inward spirit
that makes the real value of the Offering.
Don't express dissatisfaction with a
gift, no matter how great your d~isappoint-
ment.
Don't above all things be guilty of max
ing a list of articles you desire. This is
a species of polite blackmail.
Don't, even in your innermost self, spec
ulate as to whether your gift will bring
a return, and above all u return in none
tary value.
Don't forget that the chief charm of a
gift is essentially the surprise. Don't,
therefore, barter with a friend as to re-
c%iprocal gifts.
Don't, if you have neglected to remem-
Der a friend, wound her pride by sending
q New Years gift in exchange for hei
Christmas present. The motive is too ap
parent.

To shed erewhile their radiance Ger the

Whate'er the grade or color of the fame,

Else Progress has no source from whence to

Here none superior knowledge may assume.
As mind and matter are conceived In gloom;
Nor has a Veda or Apocalypse
Dispelled one cloud Of the profound eclipse.
But see! amid our happy homes we stand,
With peace aud JOY widespread throughout
the land,
While merry little household Chrlsts are
OF every song and smile this Christmas
Then let our Utmost souls ascend In praise
10 that mysterious power who guides our
ways;
And let us truly thank him., one and all,
For all his Christs and Vedas, great and
small
But, oh, alasi that we should only see
His love and care In full prosperity
Or that discomfort for a single hour
Should prompt US to deny his fostering

Oh! when shall 1t be clearly understood

That In some great equation may be blent
