answer that sent her husband to the
front. :r
Imagine the surprise of the family
when the mother came in, and they
sat down to breakfast, in her COM
pany wrapper, with a bright smile on
her face.

daughters considered necessary. eyes,"
she thought, with a smile, as she
watched the soup, there will be a
new leaf turned over that will make
a new book for some of us"
Mrs. Mason ate her supper in a
thoughtful mood, hardly noticing her
husband 3 remarks about Tommy. Mr.,
Mason was a devoted father, and one
way in which he expressed his affec-
ton was by having his wife put in
half of her time pouring out medi-
cine for the children. It was always
some kind of a tea OF plaster, or a
day from school, for the children, and
the good man never dreamed that he
might as well have risked the children
without constant nursing as. taken the
chances in his wife of heart failure
from exhaustion. Tommy was slight
ly affected with cold in his head, so
the fond father began: !:
Ma, you must soak Tommy's feet,
and tie up his throat, and make hin,
some onion sirup, and put poultice
on his chest. You've let him take
cold not noticing how much health.

enough to do it," then, not being a
very "new woman" she put her head
down, and sobbed aloud. Those tears
led to a long talk that put matters
on different footing with the hus-
band and wife, and this much of the
conversation came to the girls as they
went through the hall: II can't help
thinking, dear, you are to blame for
the girls being so selfish and lazy"
But the father got this back, for later
he overheard this interesting remark:
cts mas sweet disposition that has
made pa SO selfish and neglectful.
Think of ma dismissing Lizzie and get
ting girl who can cook! am going
to turn over a new leaf myself. I
wonder ma has not sunk under such
work and care"
Of course the new leaf got crumpled
sometimes. The children clamored for
their devoted slave, and the girls
grunlbled because they had to take
their part in the household care, and

The Christmas Atmosphere.

Getting ready for Christmas makes
these weeks in December full of pleas
ant labors and anticipations. The ma
jority Of people are not millionaires.
They do not have full purses with
which they can 60 to the shops and
buy their Christmas presents without
regard to cost. They have a little
money, and it requires a good deal of
planning, Of invention and loving
thought, to make it go around. Often
times the money is only enough to
buy the raw materials from which
patient and skillful fingers will fash
ion the gifts. If we could look into
many a home we should see the chill
dren planning some surprise on Christ
mas morning for fathers and mothers,
and the parents in turn consulting
how to manage to give the boys and
girls what they want. It is this mu-
tual thoughtfulness for others that
imparts to these December days a pc
culiar atmosphere. It will soften the
heart of the crustiest old bachelor to
go into the Christmas shops and over
hear the consultations among pur-
chasers as to what they shall get. Even
as you walk along the streets you OBJ
serve a peculiar light in the eyes of
the women shoppers. They do not
have it at any other season of the
year, except perchance when they are
making ready for wedding.-Boston

Mrs. Mason said to her maid the next
day.

tone that the young girl relented.
They all noticed that the mother oc-
casionally read in the daytime thing
Mr.. Mason had not been brought up
to in his New England home, but
which was common enough in Mrs.
Mason's early days.
The fourth day Mr.. Mason could not
contain himself: ri can't see but you

expensive girl; but the little woman
trusted God to help her at her best,
and everyone rejoiced in the brig int,

of the home.

Mrs. Mason was used to her friends
plain speaking, but this time it sank
deep into her heart. When she

wife turned a patient, smiling face to-

'tMa, can't you watch the gas more
closely? It was so cents more this
