Page 2 A MERRY CHRISTMAS. Little Betty was sitting on the step of a tene ment house. Her little face was rather per plexed and worried; at laBt bhe said out loud to herself , as was her habit : "I just can't see why it is so, that we poor chileren as work day and night and don't get no Christmas neither, the rich children as never work get Christmas." She sighed bitterly, turned and went in doors. Betty was an orphan, and she supported herself and a younger sister. She did not want much, but how she did want Christmas. -Finally she got up and went out to her work. All of a sud den something bright flashed at her feet, she bent down and picked it up. Oh joy! It was a ten dollar gold piece. Some one spoke to her: 'Little girl have you Been a ten dollar gold piece lying around here?" All her hopes vanished. She looked up into a good looking, kind young man's face. "Yes, please sir, it was fox my Christmas, please tir." He looked at the thin face turned up to him, and said : "Well, 1 guess I won't need it, you can have it," and putting it in her hand he turned away and was goue. So Betty had a Christmas. A. Moore. A Tramp went up to a cottage door and knocked, a woman answered it: "What do you want?" she said. The tramp replied, Please mum, I've lost my leg." "Well, I ain't got it," snapped the woman, and she slammed the door. THE VIOLETS When I was little I used to play, Down in the grove where the violets lay, The little brook came running round Right into the violet's ground. The violets woke up with fright, And thought it was not right, For the brook to come at night. L. Mallison THE IDYL The man was bent, He had no (s)cent, Where'er he went, He paid no rent, He lived in a tent, With a little vent. But Christmas came ; He played in the game, With a horrid name, And evil fame, Was he to blame? lie won the same. Now he has wealth And rugged health; He's married an elf, As rich as himself ; His Christmas shelf Just groans with pelf. J. B. Moore. s'cj iii inn ti WW Page 3 THE WAR OF THE KINGDOMS NORTH AND SOUTH. Far away at the North Pole lives the Snow King and all his army. Then toward the South lives the beautiful Queen of the Flowers. One day in the winter Queen Flora called all her fairies together and proposed to have a war against the Snow King, but some of the fairies said: "Why not send Prince Sun and let him try to melt all the snow men of King Snow." I will tell you why they wished to have war. The fairies did not like to fight, but to defend their country they must, for the Snow King kills all the flowers and buds. Prince Sun started out with a warm heart, and all the fairies felt sorry. The farther he went the colder it grew. At last he reached the castle of the Snow King, it was all of ice and cold winds moaned around it. A snow man stood scntinal at the door, and when he looked at the Sun's kind, warm face it thawed him out. (To be continued) L. Mallinson. THE CASTAWAY. The storm was raging Hercely. A great com motion reigned on the little pier where the lis her men were In the habit of landing. What was it? Why were all eyes strained in the di rection of the wild tossing sea? Presently a voice cried: "There is no doubt at all it is a man on a raft, he is waving frantically, waving something white." "How awful!" screamed a littlegirl. "Is nobody going to help this poor man?" An old sailor shrugged his shoulders and muttered: "There is nothing to be done, mademoiselle, it is hard luck to be sure, but we cannot attempt to rescue him in a storm like this. No one would return." And all the time the man on the raft, now high on the crest of the waves, now almost dis appearing from view in their trough, continued to gesticulate wildly.
