the father sometimes insinuated he
would be bankrupted because of the
expensive girl; but the little woman
trusted God to help her at her best,
and everyone rejoiced in the bright,
happy mother who was the inspiration
of the home.
The next New Years eve, when Mrs.
Mason was in her friends little home,
she pitied her loneliness, and said:
II wish you would marry, Kate
Il wouldn't object if | had such a
good husband as your john was the
laughing answer. Being good to Your
self has helped even him, has it not?"
YES answered Mrs. Mason, II

neighbors as ourselves unless we first

II wonder if il is my fault that he

Mrs. Mason thought, as she cut the
cake her own hands had made, be-
cause it Was a special kind her husband
enjoyed.

much as usual, though she looked with

The Christmas Atmosphere.

Getting ready for Christmas makes
these weeks in December iull of pleas
ant labors and anticipatons The ma
iorlty of people are NOT millionaires.
They do not have iull purses with
which they can go to the shops and
buy their Christmas presents without
regard to cost. They have a little
money, and it requires good deaf 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. Ii 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. 1t is this mu-
tuai thoughtfulncss for others that
impa1ts to these December DAYS pc
culiar atmosphere. 1t will soften the
heart Of the crustest old bachelor to
go into the Christmas shops and over
hear the consultations among plr
chasers as to what they shall get. Even
as YOU walk along the streets Won OBJ
serve Il 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 a wedding Boston

Mrs. Mason.
She was one of those tired women
who sigh automatically. She looked
longingly around the inviting room,
with its blooming plants in the Win
dow. The sewing machine had been
pushed back, and the little table, with
d new magazine and the shaded lamp,
Was drawn IN front OF the glowing
base-bulner. Open doors showed ii
pretty little bedroom and a neat
kitchen, which was dining-room as
we'll, with tcakettle singing on the
shining bit of stove. There was
that exquisite sense Of order so rest
full to one who is wearied by continu-
ally picking up after others.

Mrs. Mason colorcd. She had been
secretly envying this coy little home,

keepers enjoyment without the weari-
ness of Il large establishment. The
quiet where one could read or think
undisturbed seemed almost heaven to
the tired woman.
Nellie said her friend, divining
her thoughts, your mistake is in try

FATE'S LEFT-tiANDERS.
One of Them Was Delivered to the
Willard Family.

Sometimes fate deludes one into
thinking there is such treasure as
justice On earth, but she generally caps
it by dealing a blow more singing than
the first.
AT least that is the sentiment Of the
Willard family. The billiards live on a
fashionable South side avenue, in a
row of quiet, unpretentious houses.
Their residence had always been the
abode of peace and harmony till the
fetal day when the daughter Of the
peop,e next door came from California
for an extended visit. Her husband
came also; he wore a silk hat rigid.y at
every outdoor appearance, and had a
fondnesS for frock coats at a. m. bu:
nevertheless he has nothing to do with
he story. The daughter proved to be
musical. The Millards had not known
that the people next door possessed a
piano til the daughter came, and at the
first were rather cheered by the ripple
Of the piaro keys which generously
penetrated the thin wal. After a week
the pianist settled down to hard work.
Previously she had scrambled through
a varied repertoire, but finally decided
on her life work, the Mi,larGs assumed,
when they heard Padcrews!ii's "Minuct"
one day from three Il. IL. to luncheon
time, and from then Kill dinner WaT-
uer's "S1irmlrd's Love Song" The
Mfllards' brcws were slightly CORFU

plain. After a few days. However a
feeling of nervousness, restessness and
even acerbity of temper made itself
manifest.

said Mrs. Willard, fretfully. 81 am so
irritable"

growled Mr.. Millard "Anne, for Eeav-
ems sake, don't touch the piano."
His daughter jumped at his sharp

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrotulous humors - How a Curo
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, Though the soreg
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared i'll the form OF red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer ha4
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles OF Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

another pipe line into Mercur, work
on the construction of which will
doubtless begin in the early spring.
and in the meantime he has a force of
men at work in developing the springs
from which the supply win be derived,
it being estimated that when this new
system is in working order, the colonel
viii be able to furnish Mercurites with
at least 100000 gallons of aqua pura
daily.
These springs were found in the bed
or channel Of Ophir creek, below the
point where the stream was diverted
from its bed by the Gold Belt Water
company, the waters from which flow
some distance from the creek bed, but
sinking into the sand before reaching
the spot where the diverted waters of
the stream find their way back into
their original channel again.
While the enterprise is now being
conducted solely by himself at the
present time, it is quite likely that the
colonel will form a company for the
furtherance of the project before actual
work begins in the construction of the
line.
