frmation and the same reply was re-
ceiyed at the Chinese legation.

LULLABY THE FROST QUEEN

! What cold night it was The bright
stars and large, round moon glistened
and shone through the frosty air The
moonlight sparkled upon the crisp,
white snow that lay all over the house
tops, and creLt softly in at little Annette's
window, kissing her closed eyelids and
lighting up every corner Of the miserable
garret.
Little Annette shivered under the
ragged quilt and turned restlessly from
side to side. At last she opened her eyes
and sat up and listened, for through the
chinks Of the rattling window came
floating soft, sweet strains Of music. 1t
was Christmas Eve, and in the next
street some children were dancing to the
| sound Of piano and violin.
Annette sat very still until the music
died away. Suddenly the great clock on
the church at the corner Of the street
struck twelve, and all the children clap
ped their hands and shouted to one an
other, ioyously:
"Merry Christmas
Merry Chistmas !"
'"There is no one to wish me Merry
Christmas now," murmured Annette,
sadly, while large tear rolled slowly
over her cheek.
Since mamma died, even Santa Claus
has quite forgotten me-" she added, as
she brushed the tear away.
The music in the next street began
again. Annette could not lie still, so
she slipped out Of bed, and wrapping the
old quilt around her, opened the window
and peeped out. But she could see moth
ing /; the sloping roof extended too far
II would not feel SO lonesome if I
could see them,' whispered Annette.
Presently she climbed up upon the
window-sill, but still she could see moth
ing Of the happy children SO she step
ped out upon the roof. and creeping to
the very edge, looked down, The houses
were separated by only two short city
yards. The long window shutters on the
lower floor Of the opposite house were
wide open, and the warm, bright light
streamed out into the cold.night.
II see them now," whispered Annette,
