 And that was the beginning of the end, the making over of Old Fergu- son." and Johnson. coming in half an hour later really found his master sit- ting beside the kitchen window watching smilingly the little chap playing on the floor. Edith was pre- pairing some hot tea, and her mother had gone home to tell Jimmy-who had run home on some errand--all about poor sick Mir. Ferguson. who isn't really so bad since ne met BaDy.''
 And from that day there was no more "Old Ferguson" but Uncle John as he insisted on the Lincoln children calling him. And Jimmy was taken into his office atsa good sal- ary, and tho baby was taken into his heart, for Baby's name was John. too. And he was called little John.' to distinguish between him and Uncle John." And Johnson was as happy as he could be, for he had always longed to see his masters kind. good quai- ties developed, for he k6ew there was much good beneath that hard, cold exterior. It had taken golden-h Edith and Little John" to find the tender place in the old mans heart.

A EIGHBORS moving into the N house next door, sir" It was
 "Old Ferguson's' man servant A who spoke to his master as he vas serving him with coffee in his ioom at breakfast time.
 ''Neighbors? and "Old Ferguson" rrunted and made face. You mean -people-moving into the House next door. You seem to forget, Johnson, that I have no neighbors- md never had any. I don't want peo- ,le. because they happen to live irf proximity to me, to call themselves ny neighbors. Neighbors are fit only o make fuss and always to be bor- owing. l don't want any such both lrs." And the old gentleman. with a our face, began to sip his coffee. In he town where he lived he was called ,y most of people "Old Ferguson" be- .ause of his craboed, unfriendly dis position. His name was John Andrew Ferguson. and his business was real ,state. and he wasrated as the rich sss man in the county, although his wealth was not known through his charities, for he never gave dollar b any suffering from poverty.
 Johnson, the man servant left MT. Ferguson to his Strong coffee and un- , pleasant thoughts and went below Itairs to finish his work. for he served ais master in the capacity of cook, furnace man, valet, gardener and gen. sral utility man, for "Old Ferguson" would not have a woman housekeeper lbout, and refused to employ another Jervant, insisting that one man was iuite sufficient to do all the work in souse and grounds.
 "Pretty little grill" So whispered Johnson half an hour later as he tood on the kitchen porch. broom in 1and, ready to sweep down the steps. He was looking at the persons nov ng into the house next door, and had ct his eyes rest on golden-hair title girl who was busily unwrapping lome wooden chairs on the back porch. Although it was a chilly morn- ng in very early spring. the little rirl was bareheaded, and this gave johnson. a good -hearted man, some tnxiety. He feared the child might ake cold and be i'll from the ex- ,osure. Relieve I'll just call over o her and tell her she'd best put on | jacket and hood" he soliloquized.
 "Ah, I say. little girl" he calledS wont you take bad cold. barehead- d in the wind? Wouldn't you better put on a jacket or shawl?"
 "Oh. I'm used to being bareheaded n the wind" replied the little girl. You see, we girls have fresh-air dub. and 1t is part of our plan to go ,areheaded all that we can.

Within a few minutes Mrs. Lincoln had the satisfaction of seeing the sick man easier, so went to her own house for another remedy which she knew would be beneficial to him.
 The result was that Edith was play ing about in the kitchen with "baby" when down came the master of the house, having been relieved of his sufferings and having started out to find that ood-for-nothing Johnson" He showed a sour face at first, but baby ran to him and grasped hold of his dressing gown. saying in his
