BurIingnme, Cal. ~ Years

Charlie was a little orphan boy in
st. Michaels orphanage, in Chicago.
He was a handsome sturdy little lad
with loving disposition that won him
many friends He was the idol OF the
head matron and the favorite of the
nursery patron, in fact every one loved
him.
Charlie often sat by the windows
watching the fine carriages go by. One
in particular he always waited for
the two black horses, the sedate
coAchman, the little girl and the richly
dressed lady. They always smiled and
waved at him and they soon became
great friends.
Several weeks before Christmas the
nursery matron was in the yard with
a happy group of her little wards
around her They were telling her all
they wanted for Christmas Charlie
was very quiet. He had a very serious
look on his rosy face. He was thinking
very hard and tears almost came to
his brown eyes. Miss Murphy noticed
it and drawing him in her arms she
asked him kindly what he wanted
Santa to bring him. He smiled at her
and then said brightly, oh, l only
wish Santa would bring me a dear
mamma to love me, and sweet little
sister and big biz Ghristmas ,aa It tree rec
crying, but when he finished Miss
Murphy kissed him and laughingly
said. why, Charlie, that would be an
ideal Christmas, wouldn't it?" He ran
away to play and Miss Murphy smiled
sadly as she thought how impossible
such a Christmas would be for him.
One day about four days before
Christmas a shiny, black carriage
stopped at the main entrance of the
orphanage and little girl and richly
gowned lady came up TO the door. The
lady. inquired fol. the head matron, who
she could do. The lady asked II she
could see one of the children, beauu-
full boy with long, brown curls, who
always watched them from the win
dow. She described him SO well that

JAMES PETS

Jane was fond of animals and often
saved them from being beaten. She
had many pets and took good care of
them. Whenever she saw a dog with
out home she coaXed him and
brought him home with her and put
him with the other pets. She soon had
so many animals that her motheT
asked her not to bring any more home.
One day when she was out she saw
about five dogs trying to pull wagon
with two boys in it, She begged the
boys to unhitch the dogs and treat
chem kindly, but they laughed and
said: Go home and try it yourself.
Jane said: No, ] never shall" but
they laughed again.
At last she induced them to sell the
poor dogs to her and to promise never
to act cruel again After she had
bought them she remembered what her
MOTHER -lTad said. She took them home
and when she came in she saw her
cousins. They asked to see her pets,
of which they had heard so much.
When she let them see and admire her
collection Of animals they begged so
hard that at last she consented to her
cousins each taking the animals they
liked best

1t was the first time Bobby had eyer
been away from home without his
mother, and he had gone with some
reluctance to visit his city cousins. At
the end of three days, instead of the
expected week, he returned to his fam
lily. accompanied by letter which
stated that the little fellow was so
homesick they were really afraid to
keep him longer

Charles Ideal Christmas

Miss st. John knew it must be our
Charlie. She went downstairs for him
and found him in one of the farthest
corners of the yard all alone. With
one OF his Sunday white aprons on and
his curls freshened Charlie came in the
office.
The little girl ran up TO him and
taking him over to her mother they
soon became good friends The lady
hinted that she would adopt him ana
Miss St John said he was free to go
If he wished to, as no one ever had
claimed him. The lady made arrange
ments to take him home and Charlie
was never happier. He was legally
adopted the following day and the
beautiful white house on the hill be-
came his home.
Christmas morning his sister woke
him with a kiss, his mamma greeted him
a Merry Christmas and daddy brought
them into the drawing room and there
was a host of fine toys and big
Christmas tree. In the afternoon after
dinner, he and his sister rode over to
the home with some goodies fors his
little friends. When Miss Murphy

SAY "PLEASE"
ny RUTH INGRAHAM

was after Dear had grown up to
be big boy, so big that they called
him by his own name instead of
Dear" whenever they could think Of
it, that there was another little brother
in the family. Just why they. called
him Shifting would be less easy than
to account for the first brothers name,
but Sniffins he was called.
One day big brother went fishing
down by the creek. Snifins just in
sisted on going, too, and patient big
brother took him along, though he
knew it would pretty well spoil his
fishing. You see, Snffins was the baby,
and was petted by father and all the
rest because they were trying to make
it up to him for having no dear, sweet
mother.
Big brother meant to be kind, but
firm-very firm He said quite plainly:
Now, Snifins, you mustn't play on the
bridge, or you'll scare the fish, and you
must keep away from the edge of the
water, dye hear?' He was as near
to being cross as big brother ever got.
Then he went to fishing.
He'd almost had a bite when he
heard something go plop! into the
creek, and then somebody gasped the
way you do when you start TO wash
your face on a cold morning. And
there, of course, was Snifiins in the
water! He had rolled down the bank,
and had caught hold of a root as he
went, so he was not clear in, only
standing up to his waist in the water,
looking very uncomfortable and scared
and guilty. Big brother lifted him out
and carried him home, all dripping, to
JAMIE who was trying to take mothers
place and not succeeding very well.
And what excuse do you suppose
the funny baby made when I scolded
him, Janie?" asked big brother, as he
helped her change the limp, drippy
clothes and rub Sniffins' fat little legs
dry. II said, Didn't tell you to keep
away from the edge, Sniffins?' and he
says, all shiVering and chattering,
Well. wh-why did-didn't you say
p-p- please"

material in Mr.. Roosevelta speeches
are very nationally treasured On the
subject of the colonePs attack" on the

tribunal, but YOU noticed no general

lief that the supreme court should study
the necessities of the times more than
it does and not stick too hard TO pc

that is an opinion that is shared by
more than one member Of the court.
No one can shake the popular faith in
the supreme court but the supreme
court itself. If the public is not edi-
fed by the spectacle Of number Of
venerable gentlemen remaining on the
bench long after they should have gone
into honorable retirement, it is because
il is not an edifying spectacle. The su-
