fretted over the bleak weather and longed
impatiently for spring and flowers and
the birds to come. The little sister
thought and thought and one morning
when the air was 50 balmy and bright
that it would have cajoled any one into
believing that spring was on the wing
she ioyfully pointed down into the gar
den and said. See. sister, the roses are
in bloom for you
Sure enough every tree was filled with
roses, red pale pink. deep pink and
white The little invalid was in ecstasieS.
and she just reveled in the flowers and II
was not until hours later that her sister
confessed that she had made the roses out
Of paper and got leaves from some honey
suckIe bushes and tied the counterfeit
blooms on the bleak. bare rose trees.
Passers-by were amazed to see the roses
blooming and more than one curious man
inspected the roses at closer range and
went off smiling happily. The inValld
was cheered more by the roses than amy
device which could have been suggested

took on a new lease of life from the mo-
ment she saw them.-New York Press.
