" eHBEB whole silver dollars I apiece!" said Margy to the I boy as they sat In the corner -of the garret where the nut pDe had been and gazed at their hard earned wealth. "It's like having mon ey Instead of nuts fall off the trees. How shall we ever spend It?" "Spend Jtf said the boy with t grand air. "Spend it? Why, that's easy. My! I could spend It If all the nuts we picked up and sold were dollars. It takes a heap of money to buy Christmas gifts." ;. - ,i "Unc'.o Tom said he would take us to the city, so father and mother needn't know a thing," said Margy. True to his word. CncJe Tom hap pened In that very evening and said to a careless way to father: "I'm going to town tomorrow, and if the children would like. a. trip I'U take them." Bo, dressed In their best with the precious money held tight In their purses, they went' to the city with Uncle Tom. . What a day that was! Every shop window seemed full of gifts that would be Just right for some one on the list Two happy children went home that night and sneaked up the back stairs with their bun dles. Later they stowed, them away In an old ctftst of drawers In the garret, safe from the eyes of the curi ous. And father and mother never made a guess as to all the whispering that went on. Nor did they notice that the children were fulrly bulging with secrets. Perhaps ttey were busy with a few onthelr own account Christmas evt came. The boy aald carelessly: " ' ;'", "Mother, why don't Ton and father hang up your stocktrjs toor So four stockings were hung to the cover of the sitting room table no, five. If yon could call the baby's tiny sock a stocking. When father bad fallen asleep over his paper and mother was In the kitch en planning things Margy and the boy stole In with their gifts and poked them Into the biggest stockings, and. oh, yea, Margy put a bundle In the boy's stocking, and the boy put on In Margy's, and then they stole out again and were off to bed so's not to bave to wait so long for morning. The boy's ejes popped open about 0 o'clock of the dark morning, and he woke the whole house shouting "Mer ry Chri" jtsl? Every one aostled Into clothes and swallowed breakfast Then they went Into the sitting room together, and fa ther shouted and danced Uk a schoolboy when he found a cup and saucer that would bold a pint of coffeei, to say nothing of the motto "Lore the CIver" in gilt letters snd a lavish decoration of rosebuds oa Its outside. How ' mother laughed and klfuicd both the children when site found lo her stocking a crest apple that rrov el to be a iln r M. n an! a y J. J I AT t i It is" not necessary to tell what the children did and said when the boy found a cocker spaniel puppy tied to Uls leg of the table and Margy opened n basket and found a sleepy Angora kitten blinking at her. When every package was untied and the "obs" and V "aha" were all used op. when mother had decked the mantel with her pincushion and fan ind father had declared that never do, never again would he' drink coffee out of any common little everyday cup, the boy and Margy sat on the hearth rug fondling their new pets, and the boy said: "I wouldn't go back to the old kind of Christmas for anything. Then It was just Santa Claus that did every thing. Now Ifs the spirit of Santa Claus In me and yon and father and mother and everybody.' If s like hav ing a whole family of Santa Clauses." "We'll earn our Christmas money every year after this, won't we, brother T" asked Margy. And the boy replied, "You bet we wlUI" . "I'm going to begin to save and think of srays of earning money right on,' declared Margy. ' t "Same here," responded the boy. CHRISTMAS pOG PARTY. Fun For , Their Mastere and Joy For the Doge. The most fun provoking celebration took place In a private stable last Christmas. . Several boys7 determined that their dogs should &ot go unre- membered on the gift day. Their scheme grew out of a story one of the boys heard about a family whose big dog Frits was regularly a member of the Christmas party. Frits was an Interesting dog.' . Christmas day Frits was always dignified. When the family gathered around the tree be used to sit up straight near the fireplace and watch the proceedings gravely. There was always something for him on the tree. and Frits didn't mind if every Christ mas brought the same thing, for It was a titbit etceedmgly tasteful to bim, chicken or turkey bones. These were put In a paper covered parcel loosely tied with ribbon, When Frltx's name was called be would rise prompt ly. cross the room slowly with a re spectful wagging of his tail, receive the parcel In his month and return with It to his place. .There, without undue haste or exhibition of greed, be would tear away ribbon and paper and crunch the bones contentedly dur ing the rest of the evening. The youngsters who elaborated on this plan did not meet wlOi the live liest encouragement from 1 their par ents. There waa probably a doubt whether all the pets of the relgbbor- hood would have the sagacka j dignity of Frits. After pleading the boys ob tained permission to have a special celebration for tbelr dogs In the stable. Accordingly thene was a tree, and. be sides presents of bones, there were new collars, blankets, harness and such other affairs as dogs are sup posed to admlr or need. Not only their own pets, but those of tbelr friends, were invited to the dogs' Christmas tree. Prizes were given to the animals who excelled In running queer races, for Jumping and other canine tricks. It was a jolly party, and It k doubtful whether boys or dogs enjoyed It most HERE'S FUN.

The person whom the leader has ad dressed turns to the neighbor on her right snd says, "Sanbi's sleigh has been at my house," ant tbls third par ty asks, "What has It brought r "Tw slelghbells." he. or she replies, making the gesture oa ring big with both hsnds. while evnry one follows this example.
