NXTHEN the shades Of evening gather
w And the Christmas time Is here,
And you go home from your labor
To enjoy the Christmas cheer
When the Christmas tree is lighted
And the children gather round,
There is one thing must be present
If the greatest Joy is found.
There must be inner conscience
Telling you with truthful voice
That you've done something for someone
That will help that one rejoice
Some poor stranger, widow, orphan,
Someone that you did not owe.
All, the gift need not be costly
To relieve another's woe.
And the greatest gift at Christmas
That a person e'er received
Was to know that through his efforts
Someone's suffering was relieved;
For the Master, on whose birthday
All the Christmas gifts are given,
VIII see that act and send to him
Christmas gift from heaven.

 Consider her birth-but then that's difficult, for after all, no is quite sure of the facts there She came into prominence at the age of eight and there begins her story.
 Count de Cassin had been ordered by the Rus sian Government to the embassy at Peking. In his household resided Mime.

Precedent however, vetoed such ac- tion Whereupon 1t was discovered that the Count had niece, Marguerite, tiny child who must be tutored. Mime. Shell had an unusual education. Mime. Shell went to Pekng to tutor Marguerite de Cassni.
 A few years there and one began asking how it was that Marguerite the niece of the Ambassador since the Ambassador seemed to have neither brother nor sister. The gentleman resented such questions and he forthwith took trip to St. Petersburg. When he returned it developed that Marguerite had been made Countess by the then ruling Czar Alexander III. It was ordinary title, for Marguerite privileged to hand it to her children and her husband when they should materialize One does not discuss, publicly, ths antecedents of Countess, but whispers began to circulate that the Czar extremely paternal in
