room tastefully furnished and felt q cenStrietion of the muscles of his throat when he recognized his own portrait hanging over the mantelpiece.
 There was light step behind him and he turned 10 find Eve standing there, regarding him with shining eyes.
 .0h, daddy, you have eome?' she cried a little brokenly.
 He nodded and held out his arms.
 Eve came into them like a weary bird to tts nest. T have needed you so,9 she murmWed. T have missed you!9
 Jenner thrilled strangely. "Eut when you had your husband" mur- mured Jenner iealously.
 "Ah, bHt you are my dear father.' protested Eve happily; "he might try but he could never be that, you know -
 And you are glad to see mel" asked Hiram just for the pleasure of hearing her answer.
 A little later he expressed his sur prise at finding her living so comfort ably.
 T saw your husband-Geerge- driving q trolley car yesterday-a l thought you must be in need-in great wantn he explained. 'I couldn't bear the thought-and so I concluded that if you could forgive d hard d-hearted old man l would come and spend Christi mas with you-and l brought my din- ner along!n
 Eve laughed and cried all at once and bade the maid bring in the ham per, and then she laughed and cried over the contents.
 Then George Lane came in-and IIi- ram was somewhat surprised to find that his son-in-law was not wearing the uniform of the trolley company i; he was neatly, nay eXpensively at tired, and it took the combined efforts of the young couple to convince Hiram Jenner that the young inventor was on the road to prosperity; that his pres ence on the trolley car was merely an incident in the trying out of a new brake of which he was the inventor and by which he expected to make a heap of money.
 And so-so 1 am not needed after all," smiled Hiram Whimsically.
 "Oh, father" they cried in unison and he was convinced.
 Then Eve smiled at George and nodded and ran out of the room and presently she returned with an odd looking bundle of white lawn and lace wrapped in white woolly blanket.
 This is q Christmas gift for you, daddy cried Eve with happy tears running down her cheeks.
 For me?' gasped Hiram Jenner, putting up his eyeglasses. ''What is it?9
 Its granddaughter another Eve .' cried George Lane quietly.
 And so they placed Hiram Jenner's Christmas gift in his trembling arms and his meeting with Eyes daughter was baptized with his slow tearS-but they were tears of gratitude because God had been good to q hard-hearted old man and permitted him to forgive q Wr0ng-and to receive Il greater re- ward than he had dared dream.
 And so Hiram Jenner has another Eve To worship and he calls little Eve his Christmas baby

 Was she happy now?
 Hiram Jenner groped hlindly from the car and went home. He sat in his library for many hours while his serv- ants whispered together below stairs
 Hes feeling bad because of poor Miss Eve sighed the good house keeper.
 He'd oughter; hold skinflint" put in the butler ill q disgusted tone.
 "There's your bell Mrs Dorey," re- minded the housemaid from her warm corner by the fire
 Mrs. Dorey wiped her wet eyes and went up to the library.
 Hiram Jenner was sitting before his great walnut table. The shade of the large electric lamp threw his face in shadow, but his voice sounded odd and husky
 Tomorrow will be Christmas eve, Mrs. Dorey," he said heavily. "I would like you to prepare Il large ham per of foed-all cooked and ready to serye-everything that will comprise a fine Christmas dinner Please have it ready by four o'clock. I will take it with me in the ear"
 ''Yes, sir" cried Mrs. Dorey breath lessly, as she dipped curtsey and disappeared.
 .*
 Precisely Ut four o'clock the next afternoon the limousine stopped in front of the Jenner mansion and the chauffeur went up to the basement door and brought out heavy hamper which he with much difficulty lifted into the ear beside his master.
 Where to, sir?" he asked.
 Mir. Jenner named a street far up in the northwestern part of the city-a section given over to great apart ment houses.
 His checks were flushed, his eyes shone, and his hands trembled
 In three quarters of an hour they paused before substantial-looking gray stone building of the better class.
 You are sure this is the right place." asked Mir Jenner, wondering at the quiet elegance of the house the address of which had been given to him by one of Eyes friends.
 "Yes, sir" said the man, opening the door.
 So Mir. Jenner alighted. and disdain- ing help from Hanson, he lifted the heavy hamper and entered the quiet vestibule In five minutes he was glld- ing up in the lift and standing before the door of Apartment M, with the hamper beside him.
 There's something wrong some Where.s murmured Mr. Jenner wip- ing his brow; "or else that motorman chap is living beyond his means -
 trim maid answered the door and her eyes opened widely when she saw the handsome old gentleman in the fur-lined overeoat standing beside the Christmas hamper.
