Here is a silver dollar for the toe, re-
marked Stella, looking as if she wanted
to laugh and wouldn't, silver do ar
always goes in the toe.
OF, course, 1 answered, affecting an air
of wisdom, and slipped the coin in.
Stella was examining the legs OF the
other stockings. l saw how she did
and copied her. I thought I was doing
beautifully when suddenly she stopped
me.
Don't put that candy man in on his
head! she exclaimed.
Why? 1 asked, injured. He looks
very nice that way. l thought that
particularly neat of me. What he loses
in dignity he gains in charm
Stop babbling, said Stella, and pull
him out.
1 put my hand into the stocking and
struggled feebly.
1 can't get him out, l said at last with
tired sigh.
Give a pull, ordered Stella, frowning.
made a wry face as if the exertion
1 was making hurt me.
No use, / said.
Why, can't see what holds him. said
Stella, and dived her small hand into
the stocking.
Let me come out, said small, cold
voice all at once.
Can't you get out either? I inquired
with concern. Really this is a most
peculiar stocking. What goes in must
stay in, it seems.
Please let me 60, murmured Stella.
l turned to look at her. Her shining
head was bent down and the lashes on
her cheeks were like twilight shadows
on a sunset sky. 1 made mental re-
solve never to surrender the fingers when,
suddenly, they turned to curl softly about
my own.
Please let me, she repeated.
held them bit closer for an instant,
then released them. 1t seemed to me
they went bit unwillingly.
Thank goodness! exclaimed Stella, with
a relieved sigh, and added: Pm glad
you've come to your senses!
I was glad, too. I had come too near
letting them escape me not to feel sense
of pleasure at their return. For a mo-
ment or two we continued to fill the
stockings, in silence.
1 didn't know Archibald began with

Why, what do you mean? exclaimed
Stella, looking up. I was gazing at
small letter worked in white at the top
of the stocking.
Oh, nothing, l said, carelessly. 'S' is
'or Sweetest, I suppose. How stupid Of
me.
My stockings are finished, said Stella.
She held up swinging length of knob
biness in either hand.

metry-yours are all bumps and humps.
However, the two boys won't mind.
Archibald, however, feel is particular.
he will appreciate the poetry of this,
and l swung the finished stocking out
before me.
l thought Stella looked little tired.
Since my work is done it is time to
60, | suppose, l said, gently. Good
night, Stella.
Goodnight, answered Stella, softly.
Now as it happened, that was the very
thing she should not have said. If she
had cried Don't go; why it isn't late
stay and chat little, l would have
laughed and shook my head and gone.
But size said goodnight. and, what is
more, she said it absently, as if she
were caring not at all whether l went
or stayed, and she said it, too, with a
pretty little yawn, but half concealed.
and that fired me.
1t was an unfortunate accident that
she should have happened to be stand
ing by the Christmas tree at that instant.
The little rosy balls and the tinsel made
glittering background for her pretty
head, and one green spray touched the
waving masses of her hair tenderly,
caressingly, as man might. The tinsel
and glitter seemed in some way to have
got into her eyes.
Goodnight, Stella, I whispered, and
drew nearer.
My one chance Of escape lay in the
possibility she might not turn from me,
but-where was my guardian angel that
night?-had the Christmas elves per-
verted her? Stella drew herself away.
She half turned her head and l caught
a profile view of her demure little nose
and brow, and the saucy chin that
Knocked at their sobriety. l tried not to
notice the mouth, but its fresh, red
curves would not be ignored, and against
nv will | saw them.
Oh! gasped Stella.
She struggled a moment, then yielded
wonder of how they could have stayed
empty Of her for so long.
You dear, dear, boy, whispered Stella,
and cuddled her head on my shoulders.
This was too much. made one last
attempt.
The Appleton's dance, l murmured
family, thinking she might run from me
and save me yet.
Pooh! cried Stella, scornfully, and,
turning her head, the audacious creature
actually repeated her offense of that
evening.
Then knew that it was all over, that
come what might l was StelIa's forever
and always, and / put my lips to her ear
and told her so. 1t was a very sad case,
and yet to save my soul could not get
up single degree OF pity for myself, ard
when Stella, lifting her dear eyes, whis-
pered she was mine and would never run
from me again, was filled with such joy
that l could have swept her away with
me then and there and never returned
her.
We sat down on the sofa and whispered
together. | said we would take a flat,
and Stella said no; she preferred house,
and said preferred a house, too. Doubt
less would have been there whispering
yet had not curly head peeped around
the door:

Christmas morning?

Chancellor MaoCracken. in his annual

Ten Commandments, the Sermon on the
Mount. a church catechism Of some kind,
a score Of the Psalms. and the best classic
hymns said the Chancellor. This uni
versity will join any association OF uni
versities and colleges that will demand this
as an entrance requirement.

that it is manly to drink. healthful to smoke
and picturesque to swear, the college has
a hard time to convince that youth that its
library is a more attractive place than the
barroom Of some uptown or downtown
hotel

FINANCIAL GOSSIP

Whallon, from Dick, New York: have every
reason to believe that the Republic Steel COM
pany will pass its next dividend on the pre-
ferred stock. This, of course, accounts for the
break.
New York to Watson: The fact that the de-
preston in; Republic. Steel preferred, Pressed
Steel Car, Corn Products and other shares of this
class, has had but little effect on good securi-
ties, isl taken to be another proof that liquida-
ton in the railway, list is over. 1t is believed
that the same operators who are heavily short
of such stocks as Atchison Missouri Pacific,
Union Pacific, Baltimore & Ohio, Southern Pa
ciac, Reading, Sugar and United States Steel
preferred are responsible for the current drives
at weakly held industrials. their object being
to precipitate general break in prices.
New York to Lewis: The market is alto
gether professional this morning. Stocks are
down rather from absence of support than
from any great pressure.
Railroads reduces rates on street rails for ex.
port 33 1-3 per cent.
