then with hug she nearly upset Aunt
Betty and said. Girls. what silly
folks we all have beenr'
The girls left Aunt Betty an hour
later, and Christmas was not mention
ed In the EVERY household, but the
girls and their father looked unusual
ly mysterious and happy.
Christmas morning dawned crisp and
clear, the spirit of the day Astounding
everywhere.
Edna and Vera anxiously awaited
their mother, having sent their father
to bring her to their Christmas room,
which they had trimmed up in ever
green's and bells, after she had re-
tired the evening before.
They met her with tender caresses
and led her to chair prepared pur-
posely for her. Edna brought her gift
a beautiful collar of her own work,
and pinned 1t on with a brooch, In
which was her birthstone.
The mother drew the face Of her
first child to her and kissed her, tear
dropping on the upturned face.
Vera had quietly drawn near and
laid bundle Of dark blue silk on her
mothers lap. For the dearest mother
ever" she said as her mother drew her
closely to her, sealing the precious
words with kiss.
Then father came forward and, TAX
ing her hand IN his, said as he slipped
his gift on her finger, what couldn't
give the dear little woman when we
started out together l give her now"
The bewildered woman saw through
fast falling tears a magnificent dia-
mond sparkling on her hand.

so came anyway" And a lovely comb
was added to her presents.
This is what Christmas means; give
to each for their own" And Edna
started the ball rolling for a general
Christmas frolic.
