 Edward was impressed; he certain ly couldn't deny the fact that there, right before his eyes, was Santa Claus. bag and all.
 Presently @ man climbed up on the platform and announced that Santa would shake hands with each child and give each of them a little remem- brance. And he instructed them how to form in line so they could file past him.
 What excitement there was! And what squeals of delight echoed and re-echoed through the room, Quick ly the line was formed and Santa, smiling and jolly, reached down and shook the tiny hands stretched out to him and placed in them little Jumping Jacks and rubber balls and wooden soldiers and other inexpensive toys.
 It seemed to the impatient Edith that their turn would never come. Aunt Martha was in front and Edith directly behind her; and then came, Edward.
 Slowly the line moved forward. Per-

enjoyed it. After a long wait and then swift ascent, they left the ele- vator kt the floor where old Santa was "at home to his little friends
 And there he was. too, at the end of the big room on a platform! Just as Edith and Edward had seen in their picture books-long white beard. twinkling, merry eyes, little round ''tummy' and the cunningest of red suits trimmed with white fur.
 Over in one corner was huge Christmas tree, all trimmed and glow ing with candles. And near 1t Santa had placed his big bag. At the other end of the platform was a chimney, made of wood and painted to look like a real chimney.
 Every now and then old Santa would take an armful of toys out of his bag, waddle over and climb up to the top of the chimney and then down lt-showing precisely how he would do it when Christmas Eve came and he was attending to business And

tongue just stuck tight to the root of her mouth.
 Then, quickly, Santa turned to Ed ward. Aha! So this is young Ed ward' he said. Well, well, so you're surprised to see me, are you, young man? Human m-m, maybe after all l will bring you that electric steam engine and cars you've been wanting for Christmas, but you don't really deserve them, you know!"
 And he shook Edwards hand handed him a toy soldier and turned to the next child in line,
 Poor Edward He was so surprised that he all but tainted! And with reason, too Why, Santa Claus must have known that he was beginning not to believe there was any Santa Clausi And how in the world could Santa have known that he wanted an electric steam engine and ears for Christmas--unless he was Santa, DOS sessed with the mysterious ability to find out just such things as that!
 Edward looked at Aunt Martha anxiously as they wended their way out of the store.
 ''D-d-do you think he--he will for get I said there wasn't any Santa Claus?" he asked.
 Aunt Martha looked down at him sadly. ''No one can tell, Edward" she said slowly. But. remember, he said that maybe after all he would. Now-well, I think the best thing to do is to believe that he will, and per haps that will help him decide that he willi"

MT was Aunt Martha who promised
 Edith and Edward that she would
 take them to see Santa Claus on U Saturday afternoon if they would be good, very good children.
 Little Edith's eyes popped wide open. She could scarcely believe her ears. But then, Aunt Martha was a very wonderful person; and, really Aunt Martha could do anything she wished to.
 But Edward, it seemed, was not quite so impressed. Indeed, he smiled rather knowingly.
 Can we really-truly see him, Aunt Martha?" Edith asked.
 Yes indeed" her Aunt replied Right in front of you, just as plainly as you can see me nowl"
 Um-m-m-m-mm!" said Edith to herself-or something that sounded like that; at all events it meant that she was surprised and impressed.
 But Edward just smiled again. Ed ward. you see, was beginning to think that he knew "a nawful lot" as Edith expressed it. In fact, Edward had said several times that he didn't be- lieve there is any Santa Claus.
 Just think of iti No Santa Claus! My, wasn't he taking "a nawfup' risk! Just suppose old Santa had been list ening down the chimney and had heard him!
 Aren't you interested in seeing Santa, Edward" asked Aunt Martha.
 The youngster dug his toe into the carpet and looked down at the floor. He wasn't quite brave enough, you see. to tell Aunt Martha that he didn't believe in Santa Claus-which fact, right then and there, should have shown him that he was mistaken
 Don't you believe I can show you Santa Claus7" asked Aunt Martha.
 Edward hung his head and made no reply.
 Very we'll, sir" said Aunt, well see--on Wednesday,
 Though it seemed to little Edith that 1t never would come Wednesday afternoon at last did roll round. And how gaily they set forth from the house.
 T am not sure" Aunt Martha ex- plained, "but believe Santa will have little present for each child-who believes in him." And she looked pointedly at Edward. That young man looked at her a moment and then glanced away. He wasn't exactly com fortable, you see.
 On and on they rode in the street car, way downtown, until finally Aunt Martha pressed the button and the car stopped. A short walk and they were at the big Department Store, where Edith and Edward loved to go with Mamma and Aunt Martha when they were doing their shopping.
 And what crowd there was at the entrances! It seemed that every boy and girl in the entire city was piling Into see Santa Claus. But everyone was Jolly and happy; so that what crowding and pushing there was didn't hurt. In fact, Edward in particular;

Lena awoke next morning and found herself in a soft white bed in room so beautiful that her frs thought was 'I must be dead and this sure is Heaven" A white- capped nurse bent over her.
 She tried to glance about, but tht pain shot through her head and made her close her eyes.
 Then Lena experienced something that she had not felt since her mother had died-a caressing touch and kiss.
 Lena had been badly hurt and h took several weeks for her to get ever well enough to sit up in bed. Christ mas morning dawned cold and clear and the child was allowed to see whai Santa had brought her.
 At the foot of her bed stood a gor. geous Christmas tree, such as she had often seen in the great toy shops, but never in the widest flights of hel fancy dreamed of possessing. On thu floor beside the tree, In tiny little wicker chair, sat the big doll witt the shutting eyes" that she had seer in the shop window. Then the beau. tiful lady came over to her bed and putting her arms around Lena, said Don't you think Santa Claus has beer good to you?'
 Are they all for me? What would Aunt Rosie say? She thinks ther, ain't no Santa Claus"
 Your Aunt Rosie knows you art with me and she says it's alright. Yes they are all for you. There are nc other children here. This is the firsi time the real Santa Claus has visited me, and this is the happiest ChristmaI I have had since I was a child, my, self"
 What did Santa bring you?" asked Lena, returning Mrs. Gould's em. brace.
 The happy woman took a mirror from the table and held 1t in front oi the child. Lena looked into 1t and saw a face so clean and white thai she scarcely recognized it, framed by a mass of brown curls, and a pair ci large blue eyes that returned her gaze wonderingly.
 It's me-" she said. V.
 Yes; it's you. Santa Claus has brought me you. and Aunt Rosie said I may keep you"

kissed and hugged, the visiting began. That is Helen went for Elsie and Arthur joined them.
 Poor little Jamie couldn't make his Papa and Mamma understandable deed he didn't quite understand him. self-so he had to just wait in his own nursery. But he wasn't unhappy Goodness me, no! How could he be when he was surrounded with such wonderful presents, and the cutest lit tie Christmas tree set in a tub painted green and then frosted all over with stuff that sparkled like snow.
 Also-which was certainly nice of them-Helen and Elsie and Arthur went to Jamie's house first. And they admired his tree and told him how beautiful it was. Then all four of them joined hands and danced around 1t, while Jamie's Papa and Mamma stood looking on and laughing and oh, it was so much fun!
 After while Helen told them of the plan and they said Jamie could go if they would be very careful and not let anything happen to him. They promised; so Jamie was bundled up in his snug little coat and cap and they set out for their Christmas fun.
 They danced around Helen's tree. and Elsie's and Arthur's. And then Elsie happened to think of the other little boys and girls they knew who lived nearby So she suggested that they also visit them. No sooner said than done-that is, than begun, for there were ever so many of their play mates near. And in each house the child who lived there joined them for the remainder of their visits.
 And. why, bless us, by the time they reached the last house they looked like small army, so many had joined their ranks. And they were able to form complete circle about the Christmas trees. There were the toys and gifts to be looked at too, in each house, and nearly every child had an exciting story to tell of having heard old Santa Claus come down the chim- ney in the night, or the jingle or sleigh bells, at least.
 Perhaps you are planning to do this very thing with your little playmates this Christmas. Or maybe you did so last Christmas. But if not, try 1t this year and see for yourself what heaps and heaps of fun 1t is.

 Dance around? Yes indeed, quite as though it were Maypole. For, you see, that was a very important part of their plan. There were Helen and Elsie, who were the dearest of friends and playmates; and then Ar thur, who lived next door to Helen and-oh my yes, we mustn't forget him-little Jamie, who lived at the end of the block and always wanted to play with children older than he was.
 One day, little while before Christ mas, they were all seated in Elsie's nursery playing.
 "Oh, I'm going to have just the beautiful-est Christmas tree you ever sawr said Helen. My Mamma says so. and I guess she knows what Santa Claus will bring mel"
 Elsie looked at her a moment and started to speak what she was think ing; but she rem em bered in time that Helen was her guest and that one must not be rude to guest. So, she changed her mind and said quite gent ly, q know it will be, Helen; and I'm so glad. But-but Pm sure it won't
