70 Snowflake Fairy. ~
BY MAUD WALKER.

It was the forenoon of a chill Novem- Der day. People hurried along the street, wrapped to their ears and anxious to perform the errands which called them out of doors, so that they might return to their warm homes or places of busl- ness as soon as possible On a busy thoroughfare, where hurrying pedestrians jostled each other and never stopped to apologize for their rudeness, walked little girl in thin garments and ragged shoes. Around her shivering shoulders was an old cape which told of style long past, woman's capo which lad been in vogue before the present little wearer's birth. It was of cheap cotton stun and worn threadbare. And inside this old cape. much too large for her, the little girl seemed to fairly shrink. draw ing her arms across her btfast in an en- deavor to keep warm. About her head, which was rich in golden, curly hair, she wore an old brown veil. thing insnffl- cient to keep the freezing wind from her ears and neck.
 She seemed uncertain as to where she WAS going, wandering aimiessiy about but shivering with the cold every time she turned a corner and felt a fresh blast of wind which seemed to come sweeping from the north pole. "0h. I'm so cold and so hungry" she murmured once as she passed the windows of restaurant, through which she could see people seat ed at tables eating late breakfast. And the great. glowing place appeared so warm and cheerful, with white-aproned walters dashlng hither and thither carry ing trays of steaming and appetizing &hes. "Oh, it's so nice to have

Farmers were there who feared to go home, for they might find their build ings destroyed and their cattle and horses driven away. Several young people were much distressed, for they had left their aged parents at home alone.
 Presently the barn door opened slow ly, and each one there drew in his breath quickly, for two red men entered. Then behind them came my father. smiling and saying in q cheery voice: Welcome to Big Chief. Make how-how to him and to the other big Indian. Give them food to eat and much coffee to drink and much tobacco to smoke. They are our friends and guests
 Well, my children, you should have seen the happy look of relief that came over the faces of that husking-bee party. And forward pressed the men. shaking the hands of the lndians. It proved that they had been pursuing deer and had got off their reservation, and as a heavy snow was beginning to fall had sought shelter in the home of their white brother. And hearing the noise of the merriment in the barn had doubt less been listening at the door and may be trying to peep In through crack to learn It's cause, when my mother opened the door and saw them, giving the alarm. for she afterward said she thought she saw a hundred redskins. Well, those h. dians remained to the supper and seemed to enjoy watching the white folks enjoy themselves And they slept that night in the barn, going away early the next morning."

whose coat grows upon his back In the shape of long, thick hair, coat of cloth Is not necessary; but a good, clean. warm kennel should be provided for him. The writer has seen the ears of fine dogs frozen simply because they were obliged to sleep In cold place. Now, if dog is worth having, he Is worthy of good treatment. His kennel and his food should be of the best. And there Is much to be said about the pet cat. She is often a poor, abused victim of heartless children instead of the loved pet. She Is teased, tormented. chased out of doors in cold weather, regardless of whether or not she has warm place to creep into. If you have cat, treat her as she deserves, and that is, with kindness. A cat is highly sensitive. nervous animal, and is capable of intense suffering. If kindly treated, given 8 warm bed, good food, plenty of fresh water, she will become sleek and beautiful and make everyone admire her as well as love her.
