The professor yielded, and, after q
Chrisimas day spent rather dismally
alone in his rooms. ei seven in the
evening he found himself one Of par.
ty of i2 at the Dexmonds' hospitahle
table.
He had known the family well ever
since Toms first year in college, when
warm friendship had sprung up be-
tween the older and the younger man.
That he was older than Tnm--and
Aimee--had been a source Of regret to
him--since last night! In actual point
of years he was not old al all aud yet
from these young peoples standpoint
he knew he already belonged TO the
rank Of grave and reverend seniors" "
And when he found himself at the
dinner table br.ide Aimee-who looked
radiant spirit Of Christmas" with
q sprig Of holly in her nut~browu hair
he thought her more lovely and
merry and girlish-looklng than ever,
aud he felt himself unusually old and
dull.
But he did not dream ihnt her bright
eyes had detected the shade OF un.
reasonable sadness which suddenly
came over her guest, or that she had
set herself the task Of diEpeiiing Il.
II was a genial Christmas party, com
posed of Mr.. and Mrs, Desmond, their
married daughter, her husband and
their three hslkgrown children. Tom
and two OF his homeless" ynnng bach
elor friends. Aimee and Prof. Vaughn
And II proved delightful dinner,
where everyone had some gouti.natured
Joke or story To tell al his neighbo
expense. And when. during its course
Aimee'a eyes caught sight OF a dime

| fessorsm watch chain. che was decided.

They were soon on that side Of the
town where the poorer classen dwell,
and where tonight the curbs were
lined with booths lii up by Rsrins
torches aud the vendors were selling
cheap toys. fruits, candles, ever
greens and all sorts of articles, In op-
position to the long rows OF attrao-
lively lighted and decorated shops.
The brother and sister mingled
with the crowd. who all seemed i'm
bued with more or less of the hoii-
day humor Even the blind beggars
begged cheerfully and called down
genial blessings on the equally cheer
ful givers.
The sight was not new TO them, for
the year before Aimee and Tom had
spent Christmas eve In this same
quarter.
For some weeks Aimee had been
boarding her email coins TO 'ipyest~

loose In her iaeket pocket before sal
lying forth. And Tom, who had dis
covered Aimee's striek" on the pre-
viaus Christmas eve, had quietly fol.

silver piece In the old erone's basket,
Tom swiftly following suit. Two tat

dropped into the grimy hand of each,

And Aimee saw Q tail, spare man,
