MS HOMECOMING,
A CHRISTMAS STORY
BY KATHERINE AUSTIN.

Miss Marshall opened her eyes to the
sunshine with a startled feeling OF
having oversight herself, then closed
them again at the sound of the chimes
| from the church around the corner,
for It was Christmas day, the one day.
barring Sundays, In the year which
she could really and truly call her own.
She was that overworked individual, n
popular dressmaker going out by the
day, and she sometimes wished, with
Il. p. Roe's old doctor, that people
would send for somebody else some
times and let her rest.
Altogether she was in quite cheer
| full mood when the little daughter OF
her landlord came to wish her merry
Christmas and bring an invitation from
her mother to eat her Christmas dinner
with them. Dinner would be Mt half
past 2. Miss Marshall thanked them
very much and would dine with them
| with pleasure. Then she gave the little
girl the present she had ready for her,
stylish young lady doll dressed in the
latest fashion, gift which made its
recipient radiant and sent her Off to
exhibit 1t Mt once.
The child's gayness made her home
sick again. She found her thoughts
straying back ten years to the seaside
to her old home and Jack. Their par
ents were neighbors.
Every one approved Of their engage
ment. and the day was set, when
great misfortune happened-her moth
er and oldest sister were killed in
buggy which they were driving by a
train at railroad crossing. This was
bad enough surely, but TROUBLES hunt
in couples" and the blow seemed tv af
feet her fathers mind. He became al
most childish, took to his bed and
would have no one but her wait upon
him.
"You see how 1t is, Jack" Miss Mar
shall said, with streaming eyes. 81
cannot leave father even for you"
Bring him to our house with you,"
replied Jack. "There is plenty Of room,
and father and mother won't mind"
mo, Jack; thanks ever so much, but
that wouldn't do any good. Father
wouldn't be satisfied. Besides, he takes
up so much of my time that couldn't
do my duty by you" And Jack had to
submit with the best grace he could
muster
Unfortunately he consulted the doc
tor who attended Mr. Marshall as to
the probable duration Of the old mans
illness.
The inquiry would have done no
harm had 1t not been that the doctor
had talking wife, to whom he told
everything, so before long the whole
neighborhood was saying that Jack
Ralston had been asking how long old
man Marshall could live. OF course
the story came to Miss Marshalrs ears.
to her intense indignation and still
greater grief. Jack could not deny 1t.
and short Of positive denial she would
listen to no explanation. There was a
quarrel, n broken engagement. and
Jack Ralston went west, leaving his
sweetheart well nigh broken hearted.
Mr.. Marshall died before the winter
was over. Jack Ralston came home as
soon as he heard the news. but Miss
Marshall had gone to the city with d
cousin Of her mother and was OBJ
durate.
Well, 1t was too late now, and she
was fool to be dreaming of 1t. She
made hasty toilet for dinner.
There was only quiet family gath

bureau. You know people say you two

will you tell me whose picture that is?
1t looks very much like some one
