She went with him to the mill and
through the village. There her mistaken
idea Of his character showed In a strong
light Many OF his workmen were living
in poverty. She knew he was doing all
he could for them, but was there not
some way she could help? What was he
going &c do for the men and for the
churches of the town for Christmas
Then they must remember the little chill
dren.
Christmas Eve came. Mr. Bentley
had shamefacedly ordered Simpson to
provide regular Christmas dinner"
He had never made Christmas gift in
his life, but now-well, Florence would
persist in talking as if Christmas meant
as much to him as 1t did to her.
He was thinking of this as he walked
home that evening. 1t was showing, and
the wind buffeted him as he mounted the
slope. The next day the mill must stand
idle, but on the following morning the
men should be notified of the reduction
in their wages. How angry they would
be! Gilbert Bentley's lips closed in a
firm, cruel line. He had looked out for
himself; others must do the same.
He reached the house. AS he passed
through the hall the dining room door
stood open. He noted the vase of scar
let carnations, ordered from the city, in
the center of the table. Upon a quaint
old sideboard was a basket Of oranges
and pale green grapes and a plate of the
nuts over which Florence loved to linger
while he drank his coffee.
The old mans face softened. He sat
down before the fire. He was so en-
crossed in thought that he did not hear
Florence enter.
you precious grandpa!' Again her
arms were round his neck. II found
your gift, and 1 thank you thousand
times. But grandpa, want to ask you
for something more. 1t is a part in your
work I want you to give me. And
want to give you my help-myself. 1t
is a wonderful position you hold-so
much wealth and so many people whom
you can help. On this best of all nights

the birth night of our dear Savior, let
us give ourselves anew to the work you
have been doing alone"
Little girl, you don't understand. /
have not been what you think 1 have,
and"
Her dimpled hand closed his lips. "You
are not to malign my dear grandfather.
We will work together, will we not?'
Eyes, dear"
In those two words the old man re-
nounced his greed and selfshness. On
the morrow his workmen should receive,
not a reduction of their wages, but an
assurance of his good will and interest
In them. For this child's sake he would
learn to know and do his duty.
at will be our first Christmas ~
gether," Florence said dreamily, hex
cheek pressed against his.

THE PASSING YEAR.

Across the shadows Of the night
There come TO my expectant ear
The twelve deep notes that tell the night
or yet another passing year.
Its limits reached, It's work is done,
Its record sealed and sent on high,
Unknown to all and seen by none
Except Gods own all-seeing eye.
All. mel those years, those vanished years,
In memory. but beyond recall,
How filled with foolish doubts and fears,
How stained with sin and blotted ALL
What can we ask of thee but grace
To make these failures Of the past
The beacon lights by which to trace
Our way to thee, Christ, at lasti
Farewell. Old Yearl There have been days
or grief and ill--so. too, of good;
And for them both we give God praise,
Though at the time misunderstood.
His wisdom measures all our needs;
He knows the weakness of our framei
His love our highest thought exceeds;
He calls us by his own dear name
So pass the years In solemn state
Beyond our KEN we count the sun;
They come and go, we watch and wait
Until our own set time shall come.
God of the years, from out whose hand,
With all our precious gifts they come,
Give us the grace to understand,
And make them helps to lead us homel
Christian Work.

kind in you to do without me so l could
be educated"
He made no response. They parted
without the words being said that would
send Florence back to school. Mr.. Bent
ley resolved to say them at breakfast the
next morning. There he found himself
confronted by that smiling face, and was
obliged to hold his peace.
Florence stayed. Simpson, the maid,
and the man all delighted to serve her.
A few simple changes were made in the
dreary old house. Mr.. Bentley chose
some new furniture. He ordered that
good fires should be kept up and babe
Simpson see that the table was we'll
spread.
Gilbert Bentley was powerless. Flor
ence would think the best of him. She
would think that he loved her and was
glad to have her there. She would be-
lieve that he shared her own love for hu-
mainly and her reverent trust In God.

fostered other great works of promi-
hence and magnitude, including Cen
trail Park, the great museums and the
public library, now in course of con-
struction, and which is a consolidation
of the Astor, Lenox and Tilden IL
braries.
Mr.. Green, whose whole life was one
continued act of friendship for others,
vas the personification of every civic
virtue, and the close Of such a useful
life in such horrible manner has
spread sorrow and horror throughout
the city
Mr. Green was born at Worcester,
Mass, October 6, 1920, and came to
the metropolis in 1885, where he be-
came a clerk, later studied law, and
was admitted to the bar. In 1856 he
was president of the Board of Edu-
cation. From 1857 to 1870 he was
president of the Park Board, and from
1871 to 1915 was Comptroller, and
Strengthened out the city finances after
the Tweed reign. He had served as
executor and trustee for the estates of
Samuel j. Tilden and other prominent
men in State affairs, had been presi-
dent and commissioner of the New
York State reservation at Niagara
Falls since 1888, and was a delegate
to the constitutional convention in
1894.
In 1868 he originated the idea of the
consolidation Of the boroughs which
constitute Greater New York and kept
the agitation alive until the accom-
plishment of the project. In 1896 he
was a member Of the commission
which drafted the new charter, and in
1897 he saw his ideal realized.

stition made any difference with the
world to-dayP'
The frown on his brow deepened. He
leaned back, staring from a window. He
could see the long, low buildings of the
Bentley Lumber Company. In the back
ground was the leahess forest. The sun
was setting and the sky, above the tree
tops, was tinged with a rosy glow.
Gilbert Bentley had spent ten years
IN that numbering village. In that time
he had doubled his capital. Now, owing
TO general depression, his profits were
small. To continue his business through
the winter would mean very little profit,
Abut doubtless the spring would bring a

ley's god. BE had begun life a poor boy
and had worked his way upward, I'M
aided. His life had been too busy for
sentiment. To be sure he had married.
His wife lived only few years. There
was a child. Harold had grown up. high
spirited and proud. In early manhood
he married against his fathers wishes.
Enlargement had followed Harold and
his wife died within few months of
each other, leaving a little daughter.
Pride prompted Mr. Bentley to pay the
girls bills at good school, but he never
saw her.
The door bell rang and there was the
sound of footsteps and voices in the hall.
The door of the study was thrown open,
and a sweet voice cried:
Grandpa, are you here?"
Before Mr. Bentley could speak, simp-
son, his old English housekeeper, enter
ed. In one hand she held aloft a lighted
lamp, thus showing Gilbert Bentley his
unexpected visitor. She was a slender
girl of sixteen, a dimpled, blonde face
lighted by sunny blue eyes.
"Why, don't you know me2 l am
Florence, and am glad-so glad-to see
your
She was at his side, both arms round
his neck, and her lips uplifted for his
kiss. AS in a dream he listened as she
told how she had grown tired of spend
ing her vacations at the school.
"You know, grandpa, that it Is dread
full to have no one of your very own to
be glad with, and I've come to spend
Christmas with you"
The girl was so sure that her grand
father was glad to see her that he could
not tell her she was unwelcome. An hour
later they sat at dinner. The old man
looked across to where the girls golden
head cleaned in the lamp.
She chatted gayly. When they rose
from the table she went with him to the
study. Sitting on stool, she told him Of
her school life.
81 am happy there, grandpa, but 1 will
be glad when school is finished. Then l
can keep house for you. 1t has been so
