~ father was dead and now he
was an orphan, and very
poor one, too, for his older
brother. Hugo. told him that there was
nothing to give him out of the estate.
The place on which the Two brothers
lived was fine one, with rich fields and
plenty of fat cattle, but Hugo said he
meant to keep it all for himself.
You are a lazy boy" exclaimed the
older brother after the funeral, "and I
do not mean to support you at all.

Hans was not big or strong enough
to dispute with his brother. so ne sadly
ate his breakfast, put the saddle on the
lame horse, tied the broken pan to the
saddle and took the old hen under mis-
arm Then he set out to seek his for

gan 10 fall and he was at the bank of
a wide river. He gathered some grass
for the horse. built a fire and began TO
boil an egg which the hen had laid. As
he sat warming himself he heard some
one approaching and saw an old women
hobbling up. She seemed to be very
poor and very hungry, for she was thin
and dressed in rags.
Have you a bite TO spare, kind sir?"
said the foriorn creature
Now Hans was hungry and tired. but
he felt SO sorry for the woman that he

Deals With the Trials and Trib-
uIations of the Congress-
mans Life.
By JULIA MURDOCH.

l.YT is just a littIe sketch, a playlet
that makes no attempt to point
i out moral or solve a problem, ~
says Mrs. Albert S. Burleson,
wife of the Postmaster General, whose
one-act playlet, His Secretary" is to
be produced at Keith's Theater the week
of December Is. The author modestly
side-steps any particular claim to fame
on account of her little comedy. which
has been presented before in Washing
ton, but always before selected audi
ences, and says il is the sort of play
anyone might write.
However, those who saw His Secre-
tary' when it was given at the Play
house, and again with an amateur cast
for the benefit of a local charity, and
once again as curtain raiser when it
vas tried out at the Belasco Theater,
with Charlotte Walker i'm the leading
role, say that this is the best of the
many plays from Mrs. Burleson's pen.
The announcement that il is to be
presented professionally at Keith $
under the management of Preston Glib
son is of significant interest, for while
he has never. in the past, been con-
nected with the producing end of the
theatrical business, this step revives the
rumor that Mr.. Gibson intends to enter
the field of dramatic production, and
that this is only the first step in this
direction. When it first became known
that Nh Gibson was to produce the
sketch, rumors We're circulated on
Broadway that he had associated him.
self with one of the biggest producers
ir America. The play, IL is announced
by Nr. Gibson, will be produced with
a lavish hand. The scenic effects and
the gowns worn by Mrs. Maud Howell
Smith are said to be exquisite, and the
whole production, it is promised, will
be one seldom equaled in vaudeville.

-HERE is no rule at this season Of

from buying gifts for oneself
One always has a sneaking feel
ing of selfishness, but when the bargains
are so very good, it is hard to resist
them or to give all that one buys to
scme one else. A good rule is to buy
oneself one gift for every two that are
purchased for others. This evens things
