Grandma handed Polly little paper
bag of peppermints. They were good
and strong. Polly liked them.
Ten minutes later in came Polly's
mother.

then she smelt peppermint. Polly,
Pollyw she said. come right here.

Polly did as grandma said, for some

tons, a bad quarter and a recipe for
mangoes; also little pocketbook con-
tanning ten cents. That was Ben's. He
hid it there when he was going chest
nutting, because the clasp was broken.
Now Polly's peppermints went in, and
presently grandma, who had been buy
Ing nutmegs, put them all into the
raddy because Why was talking, and
Il confused her.
Now, mother" said Why, i've
come home this winter to help you.
I'm going to regulate the closet so we
shall know where everything is
II know where everything is now"
said the old lady.
But Why was already clearing the
shelves and putting on fresh papers.
Then she set things back methodical-
".
This old caddy of nutmegs," she
said, "I'li put in the other closet where
the eggs are"
Its handy for notions" said grand
ma.
"Oh. well, this cracked sugar bowl
will answer for notions. I'll set 1t
where the caddy was. and drop this
lump of alum in It."
So the sugar bowl took the place CT
the caddy. aud when Ben looked for
his pocketbook 1t was not there. SO he
thought he did not remember right. 1t
was disappointing. for he wanted ten
cents to buy ball. Still. that did not
matter. for next day 1t was skate
straps he wanted. and the next he had
O chance to buy another boys knife.
But he couldn't find the pocketbook.
Perhaps Polly took cold the day she

The next time she went to her grand
mothers it was Christmas There was
roast goose for dinner and all kinds
Of pie. Ben was there. He had never
found his zen cents. II he had, he
would perhaps have bought a sugar
dove for Polly.
While the folks sat around the fire
talking, Polly, perched in tall chair
with nothing to do, had sudden mem

She got down, ran to the kitchen

wants." said grandma.
That's in the other closet. We keep
nutmegs in it" said Aunt Why.
"Pep'mints! mine pep'mints!" clam
ored Polly.
The caddy was brought, and sure
enough when she thrust her little hand

permints and pulled out the recipe fol-
| mangoes.

And now Ben was putting his own
hand in. Yes. there it was! his peck

We'll, / declared" said Aunt Why.
Ben sat down to consider. It was
now too late for Christmas. but he
might do something for New Years.
He had heard Aunt Why talk about
calls and cards.
Only the day before a boy who had a
printing press had offered to print
cards, twenty-five for ten cents, and
every card was to have a picture of a
Hover or bird upon it.
I'll buy cards." thought Ben, and he
went at once to find the boy.
On New Years Day Ben, clean and
| shining, called Polly into the par
| LOT.
I'm making calls" he said. "This
is your call. Choose the card you like
| best"
Polly was delighted. She picked out
the prettiest card, with "Mr. Benja-
min Dotten" and pair of doves upon
| it.
Then Ben went forth from neighbor
to neighbor impartially. He was very
| successful. He met with smiles every
where, and in some places he met with
apples and New Years cakes. Every
body seemed glad to receive a card
with "Mr. Benjamin Dotten" upon 1t,
| together with picture.
When 1t came to the last he hest
| tated. He was tired and wanted to so
| home. 1t seemed to him he would
rather see his good, kind grandmamma
than anybody else in the world. The
last card had roses upon 1t.
"I'll call on grandma" he said, and
running home he made his best bow to
the dear old lady, and handed her his
card.
You never saw any one so pleased

Too Many People Wearing Decoration.

There has been growing complaint
In Paris that foreign decorations are
worn by many persons who are not en-
titled to wear them. and the French
minister Of justice has taken steps to
stop the practice. He has issued q
strong edict against the Illicit wear
ing of foreign orders and decorations.
The chancellor of the Legion Of Honor
recently discovered that the number
OF persons exhibiting such insignia was
In excess of the usual number Of au-
thorizations granted from his depart
ment, hence the ministerial circular.

The grand Old Year is dying,
His hour has come at last;
His brilliant reign Is ended,
It's golden days are past.
He shakes the wreath that, withered
Lies cold upon his brow;
His breath is quick and labored,
His eyes are closing now.
The grand old year is dying,
He bids the world good night:
A starry veil is lifted
That parts him from our sight.
A sigh Of deepest feeling,
A tear, and then a smile,
For scenes of rarest pleasure
Our lonely hearts beguile.
Behold, the New Year cometh!
His face is young and fair;
The merry bells are ringing,
There's music everywhere.
Oh. happy, happy greeting!
Oh, happy, happy day

And laughs our cares away.
