 Tom turned his head. They were standing to one side of him. Elsie held the valentine in her hand. Her eyes were growing moist as sne studied 1t. Her aunt smiled rue fully.
 "He must love you. dear" she said softly.
 Tom lifted his head to speak but inc pain grew worse. He fell back. Elsie ran ever to him. She lowered her head and pressed her lips to his. Her kiss was tender, finger ing.
 Toms arms went around her. He hugged her tightly.
 "Tommy", Elsie murmured, "1-- I've been little fool. 1 know 1t now If it hadn't been for the valentine I guess I'd have gone on being one. I do love you! If it had not been for stpuid pride I'd have come to you long ago. never really cared for Harry. It was you I wanted always"
 Once again Tom tried to tell her about the valentine but she sealed his lips with hers and he decided that perhaps 1t would be best all around to keep still. After all, 1t was no fault of his that there had been no name on the valentine.

 Toms feet ached with the cold his hands were almost numb. and his face felt like a frozen mask. Cutting through, one of the streets, he headed for Elsie's house which was not far from the main road.
 As he came within sight of the house he noticed the lights still lit. Silently, he went up the icy steps. His almost-senseless hand went to his pocket and pulled out the envelope containing the Valen- tine.

each people their duty to others.
He never lost sight of it,
To his friend, John Forster, he
said so outright:
81 thought to myself if one
could only lay ones hand upon
the time, lastingly upon the time,
with one tender touch for the
mass of struggling people which
nothing could obliterate, it would
be to raise ones self above the
dust and ashes of all the dozens
in their graves and stand upon
a giant staircase which Samson
could not overthrow"
NATURALLY, then, Christmas
~ sentiment was strong in him,
and Sir Henry, turning his mem
DRY back to the time when he was
8 years old, recalls that Christmas
at Gad's Hill was "jovial and
happy time"
1.-THE visitors for the Christmas
week were so many that they
overlooked into some adjacent cot
tageS" he wrote. "There was usu-
ally a long walk with the dogs on
the afternoon of Christmas day;
and the festivities of the evening,
varied as they were, were typical
of the time; that is to say that
they all were frightened by good
humor and high spirits.
Sometimes there would be a
charade, sometimes games, of
which he was peculiarly fond; and
sometimes a country dance with
the servants brought in to take
their part"
Dickens revelled in it. His

acute sense of enjoyment gave
such relish to his social qualities
that probably no man not a great
wit or a professed taIker ever
left, in leaving any social gather
ing, blank so impossible to fill
up"
60 Scrooge's nephew, speaking
~ of Christmas, was no more
voicing the thoughts Of the mas
ter Of Gad's Hill:
81 am sure I have always
thought of Christmas time when
it has come around-apart from
the veneration due to its sacred
name and origin, if anything be-
longing to it can be apart from
that-as a good time; a kind, for
giving, charitable, pleasant time:
the only time I know of, in the
long calendar year, when men and
women seem by one consent to
open their shut-up hearts freely,
and to think of people below them
as if they really we're fellow pas
sengers to the grave, and not an
other race of creatures bound on
other journeys
The master himself was at his
best when it came time for the
toasts, at dinner and at the end
of the evening of Christmas day.
Then, with his glass of gin
punch lifted high, his mien and
his voice were worthy of Bob
Cratchitt himself; Their heartily
he would say:
"a Merry Christmas to us all,
my dears, God bless us!"

"CIMILARLY," Dickens con-
~ tinued to his son, 81 impress
upon you the habit of saying g.
Christian prayer every night and
morning. These things have stood
by me all through my life, and re-
member that I tried to render the
New Testament ineligible to you
and lovable by you when you
were a mere baby. And so, God
bless you"
That rendering of the Galilean's
story, Sir Henry thought, was an
other strong instance of this de-
votion." It was, he said (and isl:
THE simple history of a beauti-
full life.
ct is told without any kind of
polemical discussion, and easily
to be understood by children"
The strength of the religious
feeling which prompted him to
write it is clear in a letter he
wrote to John Makeham on June
8, 1870-the last letter he ever
wrote:
Il have always striven in my
writings to express generation for
the life and lessons of our Saviour,
because I feel it, and because I
rewrote that history for my chill
dren, every one of whom knew it
from having it repeated to them
long before they could read and
almost as soon as they could speak.
But I have never made proclama-
ton of this from the housetops.'
CIR HENRY thought the Testa-
~ ment and the Christmas
tales, along with his fathers
rigid moralities, were proof that
he was writing with an object
not merely to amuse or interest.
Down at the root of his nature
there was something far stronger
and deeper than that; there was
the further object he kept steadily
in view, which was to teach the
lesson which he was preaching
all his life"
Sir Henry said he wanted to
'inculcate kindness of heart and
hatred of intolerance, and to
