THE servants had retired and left

fore the decorated and lighted tree
that was burdened with gifts that
seemed to have no destinations. For
Mrs. Stone was long past the wanting
of gifts and no companions, young or
DID, sat with her. because she wished
TO be alone with her memories.
She was not as alone as she seemed
10 be, for, In the great chair opposite
to hers memory placed the fairy figure
Of the child who had glanced and
danced about the house and under the
Christmas tree Of long ago. Beside
her there sat one who seemed to lay
his hand again upon hers in happy
and satisfied affection, while there
bent over her the strong and tender
youth who was once her hope for later
years. Again the old house seemed
full Of Joy, and noisy merriment drove
out the deathly stiffness, while the
tree that is always green spoke Of the
immortality Of happiness.
The next day, when the servants
dismantled the evergreen tree, II was
found that every gift was marked
with.a name. and they were busy that
Christmas morning In distributing new
happiness about the nelghborhood.
