A big lump, which she tried to swal-
low, came up in Dorothy's throat.
Eyes, do, but may just see him

well, l don't know what he'll say,
I'm sure" said the girl, as she led the
way through the beautiful hall to a
door at which she knocked.
Here, sir, is one of them children
that lives next door. She's got some
message. / guess"
And in one second Dorothy found
the door shut behind her, and there,
in the chair before the fire, sat Mr..
Jorden.
We'll, what is IL you want, little
girl?" said he as he turned toward
her. BE quick, for | am very busy"
'Oh, are you busy?" asked Dorothy,
surprised, because he was not doing
anything but looking at the fire. ct
l only wanted to give you these, sir,
and I'll go right away.
The man stared hard at the white
paper parcel she held out to him.
"Flowers?" said he.
YES"
For what, may ask?'
Just for Christmas, because you
live all alone. Goodbye and shs was
gone.
The pretty flowers had begun to fade
by the warm fire before Mr.. Jorden
came out of the brown study into
which he had fallen.
God bless her brave little heart"
said he, as he held Dorothy's flowers.

Casf Care TO the Winds.

Holly berries red and bright,
Wealth of candles flick ring light
Christmas III the air!
Childish faces all aglow,
Outside sleigh bells in the snow :
Banished is dull care.
Older wiseheads for the time
Join in sport and song and rhyme
Happy Chrismastide
Mem'ry brings back golden youth.
Eyes then seeing only youth,
Ever at its side.
Joy tonight is crowned the queen
OF the festive Christmas scene.
May her rule be long!
None can claim a rebel heart
With her foll'wers forms a part
Theirs a gladstone song!

Wednesday night Miss Winnie
Blanchard was given the rare honor
in Kinsley) of d surprise party. The
youthful members of the party met at
the Millinery Bazaar, and wendell their
way northward in dignified silence,
bearing the ubiquitous carCm board.
1t was known that Miss Blanchard
would be found at Mrs. Carter's, and
when the invaders pounded on her
door Howard, thinking the party was
ION him, " hastily left by the rear
exit. But having secured their cap
tive, the red men fingered not, but
marched on toward the scene of the
appointed torture. There they were
welcomed by Miss Blanchard with ex-
pressions of well-feiSned surprise and
proceeded to apply the caroms.
After three hours of tiendish cruelty.
the victim was left for dead, and
should she survive it is doubtful if
she will ever again admit the bare
possibility of having a birthday.

The Dream PRAYER.

Ho! Maid so fair.
With red-god hair,
What do'st thou. dreaming in thy chair?
The sun is high,
The moon is nigh.
To thee thy romping brothers cry!
Up and away,
Ills high midday,
The flowers bloom in fairest May;
The thrushes sing.
The yiOlets fling
Faint, fu.tering odors on the wing.
Yet thou alone art dreaming;
Thou alone art seeming
To search for fact and firm philosophy
Beneath the flowing deeds of every day;
To reconcile the is and ought to be;
To put faint feet upon rock OF knowing;
To say: "kush on. wild world,
will have truth.
Is it to thee this binding, hard fought strife
is given,
To reach with baby hands and rend the walls
of heaven?
Must thou too fight to grasp the priceless
pearl of God,
And learn, like other men, to stand on barren
sod?
Mans sight is dull and little is his knowing;
Yet sure the rivers to the sea are flowing,
The leaves on every hillside tree are grow
ing,
A nd cattle in the cool. Iusn grass are lowing.
Is not Tod good?
Yet know we more of these than He.
The King and Lord of all eternity?
Our striving ard our VAIN, vain boards OF
thought.
Weighed with the stirring of the leafy breeze.
are naught.
o! Ruler of world of men gone wrong!
Teach US to understand a btbys song,
Give us that purity of perfect trust,
Cleanse our worn hearts OF longer, life's hard
lust.
