The servant had now answered the tink-

the housewife to make any comment on

Redeemed as he spoke and he took this for
promising sign. She was convinced that
he had as yet no knowledge of his loss. and
wondered when and where such knowledge
would come to him. She hoped the enlight-
eminent would be delayed until they e

she must tell him the truth at whatever
cost to herself, and persuade him, If she
could not to return. When she made her
confession. she would be in a position to
relate all Cromwell had said to her: show
him that the general had given orders
which would block any backward move.
and reveal his determination to hang the
Scot, should he entangle himself further
with English politics. Yet she had the
gravest doubts that these dangers would
influence him. She knew him well enough
to be aware that his own personal safety
weighed but lightly with him. and the very
opposition would determine him to try con-
clusions with it, unabashed by the over
whelming odds against him.
These reflections troubled her until the
time they We're on their horses once more,

Frances.
Good. We shall soon overtake him.
Goodbye, pirate he cried to the grinning

Good luck to you and your fair lady,

Why He Ate Yolks Of Eers
From the New York Tribune

From the New York Tribune.
Lady Yarmouth. who was Miss Alice
Thaw of Pittsburg. was presented at the
court Of st. James in June. Since her ar
rival at the Yarmouth estate she has re-
ceived much attention from the peasants.
and many small presents have been be-
slowed upon her She told to one of her
American friends who visited her in Eng
land the following story, which she got
from woman whose sick child she was
visiting.
The woman complained to Lady Yarmouth
of her difficulty in getting along, and of an
experience she had had with a boarder.
THE first morning this man stopped
here she said, he began to eat boiled eggs
very greedily. Egg after egg he ate-three-
four, five. stx-and it was only the yolk of
them that he swallowed; the white he didn't
bother with at ALL
When he dug his spoon into the seventh
egg my temper got the better Of me and
said in a severe tone:
Don't you ever eat the white of the egg
sir?'
Surely not, my woman he answered.
The yolk Is the bird; the white is the
feathers. Would you have me make a
bolster of myself?'" P"

Sweet Christmas comes again to earth
Hark hear the joy bells pealing
"Peace on earth Good will toward men
From angel choirs seems stealing
Across the years to mortal hearts,
Our Fathers love revealing.
"Glory to God p the voices chant
In chorus grand and swelling,
AS myriad throats expand in song,
Our Saviour's birth foretelling.
o Bethlehem, in thee that night
What majesty was dwelling
On eagles wing our thought flies back
The centuries fading, dying,
Seem blotted out of human sight,
And into chaos flying.
We see our Jesus borne to earth
And in the manger lying.
The horned cattle low with love,
The sheep sound forth greeting,
The little lambs with gentle bleat
Their welcome mild revealing
While Mary folds the blessed child
To heart with wonder beating.
The ''star" fades out, the sky lights up
With mornings golden shining,
That ushers the first Christmas Day
Into this world of pining.
o Holy Babe, we worship Thee.
On mothers breast reclining
We love Thee, Christ We honor Thee
Beyond the power of showing!
Oh, let Thy blessing rest on US,
All potent, warm and glowing;
Renew our hearts with Thy rich grace,
From fouuts celestial flowing.

A CHRISTMAS THOUGHT.

c. jeff Sharp in December Pail Mall Magazine.
When day draws near its close,
The liberal radiance of the western skies,
Der land and sea before our gladdened eyes
A sunset glamour throws
And Christmas time thus comes,
Heaven sent, to light the evening of the year
And scatter kindly fragrance far and near
Upon our hearts and homes.
Lift up your eyes, and fill
Your minds, my friends. with freely given
light
Open your hearts to radiance still more
bright
The spirit of good will
