Christmas on
A Canalboat

"How are we going to spend Christ
MAST exclaimed the good natured Mrs.
Captain lnggs, seemingly bit sur
prised at he question, for canalboat
folk are sensitive Of any criticism aim
ed In their direction.

Just like other folk. Some think be-
cause we live on canalboats We don't
have any comforts aud eat like saw
ages My. but I'd heap sight rather
live down here than in a fat like my
niece's. She's got six rooms. and they
don't begin to be as big as mine.
IF you think there amt room just
look here" ard Mrs. Boggs displayed
the secrets Of suit OF rooms. the IN
genuity OF the arrangement rivaling
the den Of the New York bachelor girl.
Out OF the main cabin, which served as
living and dining room combined, two
alcoves jutted. besides an intinitesimal
corner dubbed the kitchen. but which
was even timer than the modern apart
ment house kitchenette.
While under ordinary circumstances

proper. two doors at right angles to
each other could be drawn out, which,
meeting, formed a room by itself. A
shiny coal stove or range quite filled
the compartment. leaving just room
before 1t In which to work, while above
1t every inch of wall space was utilized
with pots and kettles and kitchen uten-
sils OF every sort
A low cupboard opening into tho
hold contained more articles Of kitchen
use. as well as vegetables and canned
goods. Bunks were displayed In the
two other alcoves, which were in open
| view Of the cabin. But from the re-
cesses Of the boat Mrs. Boggs pulled
out a sliding door. which completely
| divided the space into two rooms, and
| when curtains were drawn into the
cabin the occupants enjoyed all the
privacy desired.

night into a roomy double bed. and an
other bunk. lust under the caves"

small youngsters away. Chests of

piled room for bedding. clothing and
the boots and shoes of family of

One of the biggest surprises In the
boat. one which conveyed a hint that
might be applied In small houses where
room is at a premium. was the pre-
served fruit lockers

on Mrs. Boggs. You see. while We

We watched the trooping children play
About the old house. once 80 gray

And one by one they said farewell.

Old friend and true, must even we
Find nevermore what used to be?
Man lives by change: through ebb and flow
The new lives come. the old lives go.
We lose and gain. yet year by year
The aging heart grows more austere.
OF our mad times tempt joylessness:
IL may be that our feverish days
Forget the old more genital ways:
It may be. too. the ashes OF
Dead hopes and dreams have smothered

But plain It stands. no more we hold

Yet thanks TO one small spark. old friend.
As down the dusk of things we trend.
Age shall not strip our very heart
OF all its old congenial art.
Aye, thanks to each small voice snd light
That lent its youth to US tonight.
And thanks TO that strange fugitive

We yet shall hold our youth intact!

HIM DOWN. would return with
the object of his choice and lay it at
his feet
But alas, there Vase wicked little
goblin peeping through from the bough
IF a peach tree, and. though he had not
heard about or seen the boomerang,
he had caught all regarding the magic
opal and had seen Billy place it I'M
der his tongue. So when the little
black boy had hidden goodby, thank
ing the fairies for his Christmas feast,
and started home again he was way
laid in the bush by the evil goblin,
who had followed him out of the gar
1en to rob him. Billy refused to give
up his stone and cried for help, but
The goblin knocked him down and beat
him till he lost consciousness. Then
the wicked creature forced open his
mouth, stole the magic opal and ran
away with it as fast as he could.
When poor Billy recovered he soon
noticed that the opal was gone and
guessed who had taken it, but he was
in despair of ever finding it again, so,
sitting miserably on the ground. he
opened his mouth wide and cried long
and loud. But this he soon realized
was a silly. useless thing to do. Just
then he spi2d his boomerang. which
he had quite forgotten. on the ground
aearby. and. remembering what the
plue fairy had told him. be picked it
up. and, jumping to his feet. he threw
t skillfully high into the air
Away it swung without touching the
trees, and, sure enough. as the goblin.
4 couple of miles off, was just admir-
ing his plumber. the boomerang lifted
1t out of his hand before his
very eyes and carried it back to
the feet of its rightful owner. Billy
shouted for joy. and. putting it
once more in his mouth. he took
his wonderful toy under his arm
and sped down the hill. When he
reached the vineyard he saw the gar
dener still at work, so. asking him
what he would most like as Il token
Of gratitude for the grapes. the old
man looked him up and down and
answered. There is not much a-iittle
fellow like you could do for me-"
Il can do my best said Billy.

4 CHRISTMAS
FAIRY STORY.
BY ALLEN ORR.

"HERE was once upon a time
little black boy called Billy.
= He had lived all his short life in
black camp with his parents
and number of other aborigines of
the tribe. Billy had never been very
kindly treated, and as he had soft
heart himself he sometimes felt it very
much
Now, one Christmas time, being left
alone as usual, with no presents Of
any sort and no treat. he began to
think of all the stories he had been told
about the white children's Christmas
and determined then and there to find
out what it was really like He had
heard of the Christmas hills in cOun-
try many miles off and planned to go
there, believing from their name that
these must contain all the mysteries
Of Santa { and other joys from
which he ha,- always been isolated.
With a loving farewell to his own
mia mia-the little shelter of branches
which he had built for himself against
the thunderstorms-he set off with only
piece of opOssum skin hung round
his waist for clothing and boomerang
in his hand.
Billy joufneyed for many hOHrs over
paddOcks and wire fences, Wading
bravely through creeks. water holes
and bracken underground, where the
snakes were very numerous and poi
sonous, till he found himself in a beau
tiful valley between blue and a pur-
pie mountain. Approaching a vine
yard, he asked an old gardener where
the Christmas hills lay.
'Yonder," said the man. pointing
straight in front of them toward the
blue mountain. This is Yarra glen"
The little black boy was very hot
and thirsty. for the sun had been beat
ing fiercely upon him all the way
along. so he begged few of the round
juicy grapes which hung in rich profu-
sion on the vines.
by all means" said the good ma
tured gardener as be picked him the
largest bunch he could find. ripe and
inviting with the bloom upon them.
Billy thanked him. saying he hoped
some time 10 be able to return his
kindness. and. taking the fruit, he con-
tinued his way with a light heart.
AS he climbed and climbed. rising
higher and higher, the glen grew small
er and smaller below him till he could
not see the old man any more. Soon
the hill became so steep and slippery
that he was forced to draw himself up
from tree to tree by holding first on to
one branch and then another. Blue
gum and wattles rose high above him
i'll monotonous grandeur till he began
to wonder where the Christmas trees

KIND YOUTH trav eled many
miles on foot and am parched with
thirst" said Billy.
Il am dying" groaned the other fee
bly,. Have pity"
WhereupOn, moved to sympathy, he
gave her all he had left.
To his astonishment as she was eat
ing them she turned into a lovely fairy
queen all dressed in soft, shimmery
blue, the color of the sky
LAS you have done me a service" she
said, Il mean to reward you in the
way you most want. You shall have
real Australian Christmas"
Billy was Overjoyed and at her bid
ding followed her through the bush till
they reached a wonderful garden filed
with brilliant flowers and fruit which
surpassed his widest dreams. Straw
berries grew in masses all along the
borders, and the trees were laden with
luscious ripe peaches. nectarineS, figs
and every other southern fruit he had
ever thought or heard of in or out of
season.
Here they entered. and the blue fairy
summoned ten other little fairies just
Billy's own size and age to wait upon
and entertain him. They were all III
different cOlOrs. so that as they fitted
about him in the sunlight with their
floating gosSamer gowns they looked
like a rainbow

Dec. 3, 1910.

Reginald Graham of New York, beau
tiful doll twenty inches tall, light hair,
blue eyes, with long dark lashes, to
his ladylove, Miss Alice Winchester, a
brown eyed doll beauty of Boston.
The fact is that marriage had been
arranged between these two dollies by
their little mammals and several grown
up aunties, 10 take place at Christmas
time at the home of the doll bride.
But making the clothes! Grandmas,
cousins and aunties spent days using
their nimble fingers to fashion the tiny
manly garments, as no little girl could
possibly do the difficult sewing.
1t was uecided that a black broad
cloth suit must be made, but as a full
dress evening coat could be used only
for formal occasions a tuxedo or din
ner coat was finally agreed upon as be-
ing Of more service
All the time we have been telling
about the bridegroom dear little Alice
has been so busy having long white
satin wedding dress made, q real lace
veil and the daintest kind Of lace trim
med underwear
A travelling gown Of cloth, an au-
tomobile coat Of champagne color, a
white hat with feathers and flowers,
all have been prepared for the "going
away" costume.
A procession Of twenty little girls
with their dollies follows Reginald
and Alice, who march into the draw
ing room to the music Of a wedding
march played on the piano; then into
the dining room, where the dollies sit
at table that has been arranged for
them, with tiny wedding cake deco
rating the center
Then comes the wedding tour
around the garden. and then the newly
married pair go to housekeeping in a
big closet that has been furnished for
them with all the latest conveniences.
1t was really the most brilliant mar
rage that was ever made in Toy
land and is the true story Of dear
little brown eyed girls Christmas
present.
A great many dollie guests were In
vited from Mother Goose" Land, and
among those most noticed were:
Jack Be NimbIe. Jack Be Quick,
He was the first one there;
Then came little Goldie Locks,
Who ran away from the bear.
Bright Miss Nancy Etticoat,
Used to standing long,
Shone beside Tom Tucker.
Who sang the supper song.
Mistress Mary, Quite Contrary,
, Brought from her garden fair
Several maidens all in a row.
With pretty curling hair.
Bobby Shafto from DER the sea.
Was in d happy mood:
/ saw him gazing bashfuly
At dear Red Riding Hood.
Little Miss Mufret had left her tuffet
And surprised us all, oh, my!
BY going to a corner with little Jack
Horner
And sharing his Christmas pie.
Shy Bopeep without her sheep
| Many sweet glances won.
And there without his little pig
Was Tom. the Pipers Son.
Marjorie Daw and big Tom Stout
| Attracted much attention
And many more whose names, alas,
| l haven't room to mention.
1t was wedding so very grand.
| All in the month OF December.
| With the very Four Hundred OF Toy
| land there,
AS many will long remember.

CHRISTMAS FEAST.
By THE0D0SlA GARRISON

II ING Arthur gave Christmas feast
q u At CCmelot. at Camelot,
In honor of the little Christ.
Who was of Virgin born.
And at the board sat great and least.
The mirth and wine between.
Merlin, the seer, and Lancelot,
And Guinevere. the queen.
THE torches f!ared, the great logs
u b!azed.
At Camelot, at Camelot.
In honor of the little Christ,
That was o Virgins son.
The wine was poured. the song was raised.
But still with brooding eyes
Upon the queen and Lancelot
Looked Merlin. the most wise.

buy it in winter. and this is where we
store it,
Going to the stairs up the companion
way. she pulled out tiny drawers.
Small knobs jutted out from the face
Of each step with which to open the
drawers, while within there was quite
room enough TO allow pint fruit jars
to stand upright.
A cold storage room was tucked
away In the hold, into which small
door about two feet in height opened.
The dining table was folding affair
which turned up against the wall OF
the cabin when not In use.
