rEDDY's CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
BY A. G. TAYLOR.

BY A. G. TAYLOR.
"It's gettin' nearly Christmas"
Said little Teddy White,
As he counted out his savings
One cold December night;
81 amt got many pennies
To buy the things to give,
Seems like l couldn't do it
If | save as longs | live.
Then a pleasing thought came to him,
Which caused happy grin;
81 can give them all present
If haven't got the tin.
know my kind old grandma
1t will cert'nly please pile,
If in place of lookin' cranky
I'd give her my prettlest smile.
"An' instead of teasin' sister,
fI'd be polite and kind,
1t 'ould be the dandiest present
For her, that | could find.
My little baby brother
Won't be very hard to please,
can tickle him to pieces
With a Dire dful lovin' squeeze.
"My dad, oh he's dead easy,
For I'll try the best | can
To be, what he says he wants me
A bright and honest man.
And to my dear, sweet mamma
I've got notbin' else to give
But heaps of love and kisses,
Just as long as ever | live"

CHAPTER XXXI.i
AT NEWPORT.

Uncle Sam rapidly became worse af-
ter he returned home. and soon his con-
dition excited the utmost alarm. Two
renowned physicians exerted their
skill for the benefit Of the patient. who
was never left without the attendance
of one or other OF them. He was said
TO be suffering from phrenitsc meningi-
tbs. induced By too prolonged tension
OF the faculties-an inflated way OF de-
scribing the simple fact thai his mind
had temporarily srccumDed under the
anxiety and grief to which II haG been
subjected.
For many weeks aunt Gertrude
nursed her husband with untiring de-
votior. and in her anxiety that nothing
should be neglected or III done she did
much work that might well have been
left to other hands. My marriage with
Constance was indefinitely postponed.
aud no thought given TO any matter
but the present condition or the patient,
for whom even his physicians acknow..
edged they feared the worst
