set of dishes-also from that beautiful
Ten Cent store. She looked over the
gifts. Some were already wrapped,
for all the while she sang her nimble
fingers had been busy. But her gen.
ius solved the problem.
WELL" she said reflectively, "she
can uve them for an ornament on her
desk maybe, and I'll promise to dust
them for her. l like little dishes"
But having cleared that hurdle an
other presented itself almost imme-
diately. On flooding onset of mem
ory Calista remembered that she had
fully intended when she started out to
get something for Jasper-the brother
that was to have been but now wasn't
to be, as she explained it to her mind.
For in Calista's loyal little heart
burned steady flame of liking for
the man who could treat little girls
with the consideration he had be-
slowed upon her.
This was dilemma. And for the mo-
ment Calista actually thought of rob-
bing her real brother Jim of the glo-
rious green tie. Jim, just two years
older, was a pig" to her sometimes.
But then she remembered that Jasper
never wore any but black ones on ac-
count of his red hair, as he had ex-
planned to her at one time.
1t was indeed a perplexing problem
to say the least For had it been any
one but Jasper she might confide in
some one-her mother, or even Mar
garet-and negotiate a loan.
Il guess he'll have to go without"
she concluded almost sadly. And GU
riously dusk of dreams crept into
her blue eyes. "Unless-unless l give
him something of my own" But
mental review of her most cherished
possessions failed to reveal anything
suitable for big grown-up man.
Then even as she gave up the prob
lem her despairing musing awoke to
life with a delighted, "Oh!" AS she
pondered she had been gazing directly
at the framed picture of Margaret
which stood on her little dresser
Calista was nothing if not master
full in the manner in which she
reached ultimate decisicns-and then
lived up to them. Less than minute
after she had allotted Jasper that
forget-me-not framed face she was
also promising him note. For
Calista really had fellow feeling of
understanding for the man-especially
about that picture.
Dear brother Jasper, that was to
have been," her letter ran. 81 am

and yet between million Christmas
homes were seen and gifts uncounted
were bestowed from Santa's rich and
boundless load.
Though / upon the top reposed I
was in no way discomposed, for magic
wonders multiplied that night upon our
snowy ride. The greater wonders,
though, to me might have been traced
to Santa's tea, sophisticated by his
cook, and of which he so much par
took; for at the homes of wealth,
where boys and girls had much,
he left few toys, while poorer
cfildren's wishes found complete full
fillment on his round; and to strange
humors he gave vent as here and
there we quickly went.

found their fill; and many men of

door should always open to the poor.
Fantastic tricks, too, Santa played
on men and women, boy and maid. In

him slip a manikin; in one old bach's
dingy place woman's form of won
drous grace. Twas wax, of course;

Linda laughed softly.

eyes upon Goodwin. 1--WE thought we

said.
These two nests were undiscov-

have, at this very minute $500"
"Three hundred dollars! OH" she
impulsively held out her two toilworn
little hands, 1T is a fortune! The
children They can have their Santa
Claus!"
Goodwin found himself feeling hap
pier than he remembered having felt
before. Was it the knowledge that he
had been the Good Fairy in this small
family or was it something more sub
tie, more wonderful that had crept
into his mind?
He laughed trif1e nervously.
Il am going to ask for immediate
payment for the joy have found for
you,' he said and when Linda's ques-
tioning eyes met his he said impetu-
ously: Let me come tomorrow-and
help make Christmas glad for the
children. May conner"
Linda glanced at him with new
shyness. "Yes," she said, simply. "If
you like will go with you to help get
that Christmas tr2e"
Next morning Linda and the chill
dren were up early.
The cracking of the fire as 1t roared
up the stovepipe created spirit OF
cheerfulness that greeted Marvin
Goodwin when he presented himself
at an early hour.
"Oh!" shouted Bobby, here's our
cwn Santa Claus!" His eyes were
glued to the armful of packages Good
win deposited on the table.
Bobby" cried Linda

before" queried Peggy.
Never! This is my very first ex-
perience. hope l win acquit myself
with proper dignity
And Lindas eyes, over the heads OF
the children, looked down deep into
Goodwin's big soul, and unconsciously
she let the man read what her heart
was saying.
Next Christmas" he was saying in
his mind, Linda win have permanent
-oses in her cheeks, and her eyes will
be mine, and that will be all the hap
piness one Santa Claus could have"
Liadenette smiled.
