child's voice: "Here, snow lady, here is a dear little baby for you. so you won't feel lonesome while we are away" Then the children bade the snow people good night; but the last thing before jumping into their nice warm beds they gazed from the win dow at the two qAiet figures on the lawn. and threw them some good night kisses. "just to keep them warm," they told their nurse.
 Could they only have stayed a while longer by the window they would have seen and heard strange things. for presently the snow mother sank bit lower, and bade the baby nestle closer to her, while she crooned to her q sweet lullaby all about the clouds. the stars and the far northern lands where man has for so long tried to gain Q foot hold; but. most of all. she sang of the North Wind and always as the frlend-of her people.
 Soon the moon peeped through the clouds and smiled at the pair. and the great North Wind himself ca ressed them, at which the snow baby crowed with delight. Next came Jack Frost, and. putting his arms affectionately about them. left them pressed even morel closely together than before; and all the little snow flakes at their feet sparkled in the moonlight and crackIed merrily be- meath the tread of Jack Frost's feet. At midnight beautiful Frost Fairy came gently down. and, touching the snow baby. as 1t lay peacefully sleep ing in its mothers arms, left upon its lips the gift of speech; and early in the morning the baby awoke, aud, realizing it's new power, twined It's arms fondly about its mothers neck and spoke the name that is dearer and sweeter than any other in all the world--the name of mother" tinkiins of little silver bells. and the little one, began to ask questions about the world and its wonders, and first 1t asked how long they were to stay in this wonderful country. The sadly: "Ah! my child, why did you not leave that question till the last? We are but visitors in this fair land. our life is short, indeed" Then the poor baby wept softly. and said: But I love this new-found country, snow babies to play with and stay here always Why can I not?"
 To which the mother made answer: ''That is not for us to know. my child, but it would not. always be as lovely as 1t Is now. dear, and while than ours. Are we not beautiful, pure and spotless? Then, better than ali, my darling, we are never separated for an instant, for even when our enemy.

 Pretty soon three eagles flew to him, each having tiny saddle strapped to his back.

 What surprised the little boy and girl very much was to see the walter give Btxey some money instead of the gnoTne paying the waiter.
 In response to their looks of wonder ment. the gnome said. You know, h'a only right that the restaurants should pay us. What they hand us to eat is almost sure to give us indigestion or they give us helps pay the doctor. The propnetors don't lose money. because all of them are doctors. too; and they get much more money in the end than they present us.
 "Now we'll drop in to see concert" he said. as they left the restaurant be- hind them.

 Bixey led them hastily into a long corridor that ran close by the throne room. wen now go and have some sport" said he. uttering 8 peculiar &histie.
 The three had stood for quite a while when Toodledee suddenly exclaimed:

 By and by they passed out of the cor TluoT. Iney LOuHu LnetubeiFeb m a great forest Leaving tho snail-car, they walked rapidly forward. All at once they burst into great, round clearing.
 A motley crowd of little gnomes like Bixey quickly ran forward and sur rounded the three, jabbefing at them wildly. When Bixey had talked with them for a while. however, they be- came somewhat calm and even invited Toodledum and Toodledee to join in their game of tenpins.
 The boy and girl played, as they thought, very badly, so their surprise was great when they were told after the game that they had done the best Of any of the contestants.
 How was that" asked Toodledum; I've knocked less pins down than any of you7'
 But here Bixey pulled them aside. whispering:
 "You mustn't forget that the one who knocks down the least number of pins always wins. with us. You see, the gnomes have played at the game so long that they can hardly help knock ing pins down. so it's more to their credit to mlss-something that's almost impossible for them to do."

 Presently a young man stepped brisk ly up to him. saying, sharply:
 Landlord. want good dinner and a comfortable room. do not ask for more than my moneys worth, but wish to be served we'll"
 Soon a sumptuous repast was spread before the stranger. Later he went to sleep in splendidly furnished room.
 Next morning the guest ate another hearty meal. and then asked for his bill.
 When 1t was presented to him. he handed the landlord few pennies. with the remark:
 '"rhis is all I have. If you remem- Der, 1 asked for no smore than the orth of my money, and am not to blame you gave me more than its value in food and lodging"
 The landlord was staggered. His first thought was to hand the presumptuous stranger over to the police. but an idea came to him. and he said:

Then came the children and danced in g1ee about their snowy friends. and made snow caps and robes for them, and built e snow shed about them to protect and shelter them. and when night came and they were again forced tb leave their new playmates. the children's eyes were full of tears. and as long as there was glimmer of daylight they watched from the window. wondering what the snow people would do all through the long night and what new fun they could have with them on the morrow.
 But alas for their plans and for the snow baby's love for the earth upon which she found herseifg That night great change took place; the North Wind was obliged to continue his journey. for so he told the snow mother and her baby.
