table. the like of which none of that
humble party had ever looked upon. But
it was kindly madness that possessed
the host of that bountiful dinner, for
his stories were of the pleasantest and
MS watchful care was unfagging. His
guests rewarded his efforts by a sponta-
neous enjoyment of all that was set be-
fore them. 1t was good to see them
wait upon blind Jonas, wlb could not
help himself, and upon lame Betty,
whose crippled hands made difficult the
use of knife and fork.
Talbot rose to replenish half-emptied
plate as the hall bell thrilled merrily.
Ihere was pause; then James quiet,
well-trained voice said: eyes, madam;
ne Is at dinner in the studio"
The door swung inward Talbot knew
that he was not dreaming when she
came toward him with outstretched
hands and ripple of explanation Of
which he heard not one word. Indeed,
to him one isolated fact filled the world
that she was smiling up at him with a
great promise in her eyes,
"a little friend of mine wanted to
give her friends Christmas dinner. and
l persuaded her to let me share it,, he
explained jauntily. st has been a great
treat to me-"
Miss Wakefield read the whole truth
for herself as she looked into the good
homely faces that reflected their hosts
praises in every glance. She said MOTH
ing, but her eyes told what Talbot would
have given all he possessed to hear from
her lips. Then Mr.. Wakefield and his
wife ventured in, and Talbot bethought
himself to ask if they had dined, which
they had not.
Lou and Talbot made room for three
plates here and there, and as there was
a plenty of crullers and turkey and icet
cream, all went well to the very end of
the function, when the eleven originally
invited guests rose and made their
adieus with glad hearts and beaming
faces.
Miss Wakefield stood before the CRATE
while her brother and his wife examined
a row Of pictures half hidden behind the
holly wreaths.
81 was so sorry to disappoint you yes
terday," she said, 'but poor Ted's tele-
gram was so urgent that we were afraid
he was worse and hadn't the heart to
refuse him. When discovered that we
could take an early train home I made
up my mind to run in and wish you a
Merry Christmas, anyway, and so we
came, you See"
Talbot thought of the ring. He had
taken it from its hiding place. "For a
long while | have wanted to ask you to
accept this-and what goes with it," he
said simply, holding the glittering bauble
toward her.
A red glow crept into her face. She
made no audible answer, but when the
young couple at the other end of the
room sauntered toward them they were

came school, college, and then mar
ried life.
When the scribbling fit was on him
Pearl used to draw her low wicker
chair close to his writing table, knit
ting, or daintily lingering white ma
terial, soft and downy and fluffy, for
the prospective wearef, and the few
remarks she made seemed to chime in
and identify themselves with what
he was writing; but, of course, all this
happened five years ago.
One odd little trick Pearl had, and
Noel remembered it this evening-and
missed it.
When his pen was working extra
busily she used to lay the tips of her
fingers upon his right hand-just
where hand meets wrist. She did not
incommode him in the least. He de-
clared her touch inspired him; they
were such pinked-tipped fingers, and
so small, and he had often written
with the tiny touch on his wrist al
most unconsciously-only peeping up
from time to time at sweet oval face,
into deep violet eyes love lit.
But, of course, this was five years
ago.
So he wrote on, feeling little bit
sorry that Chum had not stayed, for
after all, he only had another half
hours work before him, and then they
could sit and chat, and perhaps drown
the sound of the bells that he knew
would ring out in few hours.
He was just in the frame of mind
to summon his landlady's children, but
except for himself, the house was

1t is not only the aristocratic dog or
the pampered pet Of luxury which, dy-
ing these days, has tombstone rails
ed to its memory, says the Philadel-
phia Record. On the steep bank over
looking Pennypack creek, within the
bounds of the house Of correction
grounds, is the grave Of "Joe," dog
which was known and loved by all the
inmates of that institution.
Joe was no dog Of high degree; in
fact, he was what Is known as a
board-yard dog, and he was so long a
resident of the place where he died
that no one remembers how he came
there. There is tradition, however,
that he first appeared there many
years ago, draggled and worn, as
though he had wandered far in search
of his master, and, finding that mas
ter there, he camped on the spot. How
ever this may be, Joe was the prison
ers' friend. Whatever had been the
shortcomings or evil doings of the peo-
pie he found there, he never assumed
any attitude Of criticism or dissent
toward them, and his sunny presence
was given impartially to the cheering
Of many lonely hour. Joe died of
old age at the house of correction in
1901, and the little grave he was
buried in is still kept green and bloom
ing by the inmates, with flowers which
they get from the walks or green
houses. The little wooden headstone
bears the inscription, also the work
of one of the inmates: I'm Memory of
Our Dog, Joe. Died Jan. "a 1901"

was not considered an exorbitant price.
"The Second Funeral of Napoleon"

The copy is flawless, with the original
