all furrows, and whose voice was
cracked like a broken lute, did sit
apart from the other guests clutching
her ancient draperies nervously when
they stood or sat about her, those oth-
ers were blissfully unconscious of any
such proceeding, and beamed at her
as at their hostess. with overflowing
hearts.
The cripple, who was stout, was
squeezed so tightly into her ancient
oodice of rusty black, and her face was
so many tints and tones of purple in
:onsequence that Dorothy had a. vague
tear of what might happen when the
effects of the dinner began to make
themselves manifest. The cripple was
1 woman who had been handsome in
1 coarse, ordinary way, and the crip-
ple’s baby, or grandbaby, the child of
a ne’er do-well son, who was a widow-
er, was as fair 3. little human flower
as one might find in many days’ jour-
neyings. It had brown eyes and pink
cheeks, not unlike those of Dorothy
herself, and Dorothy held it, and talk-
ed to it, and scribbled hospitably on
:he deaf mute’s pad, and drew out the
iecayed gentlewoman on the early ar-
istocracy of the village, and other
kindred topics, and chatted merrily
with the cripple the while, and so on,
until the dinner bell rang, and Mary
Ann “spacheless with pride,” as Doro-
thy afterward related, appeared ready
to serverthe company, wearing her Sun
day gown and her broad, Celtic smile,
which had been a comfort to Dorothy
throughmany a season.of depression
when genius couldn't be made to burn,
and Scheherezade’s spirits had been
at very low ebb indeed. ,But those
troublous times seemed very far away
now in the joy of the present. Doro-
thy was in her element. It was a cruel
fate that had made her a Scheherzade
instead of a sweet little houswife with
dinners to serve and friends to enter-
tain.
Her guests were glowing in response
to her hospitality. The baby, luxuri-
ously seated on a mammoth old edi-
tion of Webster, was participating gay-
ly in the feast. There was a. festal air
about the miniature dining-room, with
its bright rugs, its snowy curtains, its
sparkling glass, its white linen and the
blooming things Dorothy always would
have about her.
The old gentlewoman was leaning
back in her chair. Had the old times~
come back again? Did comfort and
plenty wait to do her bidding as in
day-- of yore? It was like a page from
the book of her youth. She looked at
Dorothy and smiled, and so did the
deaf mute, and the cripple, and even
the baby, who had loved and trusted
her from the beginning, and then the
bell rang sharply and suddenly, and_
Mary Ann in a flutter ran to the door
with a dish in her hand, and pretty
soon there swept down to the dining-
room a vision of such rare loveliness
that everybody looked up in surprise
and ectasy.
It was only the Princess in full'din-
Dorothy had seen her in
such guise many times before, but
there was a radiance about her that
was new, as if the Christmas fairies
had come to her in the night and
transformed her into a human thing
who loved her kind- She shook hands
warmly all around the table, dropped
a sealed envelope at everybody’s plate
with playful admonitions not to open
them until they got home, ordered
Mary Ann around with a great show of
proprietorship, established herself by
the side of the old gentlewoman, to
that worthy’s intense and respectable
satisfaction, and had soon ingratiated
herself so deeply into the hearts of
the guests that Dorothy forgave her
all her sins, and beamed at herwfrom
the head of the table quite as radiant-
ly as if she hail been the poorest and
worthiest object of them all.
Now, the dinner was not yet well
under way when there was another
warning note at the door, and Dorothy
sprang up in amazement to meet Cole-
brook, who strolled good naturedly in-
to the dining room, and, like the Prin-
cess, demanded to- be speedily served
with the best there was in the larder.
This quite upset the gravity of the par-
ty, the deaf mute included, who smiled
as broadly as if he were in the conspi-
racy, and the baby began beating such
an enthusiastic kettledrum with one
of the legs of the turkey that the crip-
ple felt obliged to subdue him, though
she did it in the gentlest and tenderest
of ways, and'in the midst of a storm
of protestations from the entire par-
iy.
When the first wave ofmerriment had
subsided Colebrook twisted‘his gray
mustache and looked about him in his
old whimsical way, but the Princess,
Who had known him a. long time,
plucked so 'vigorously at his sleeve,
and the baby and Dorothy laughed at
him so joyously, that he soon began to
enjoy himself as he had not done since
he had been a schoolboy, and Dorothy
could hardly believe it when he began
entertaining the company with droll
stories and grotesque imitations of
people and things he had encountered
in a, lifetime of journeying about the
world.
And so the Christmas dinner went
on to the close, and the close was plum
pudding, with the whitest and creami-
est of sauce, and the blackest of black
coffee, for which a bit of brandy was
burned with the bluest of all blue flames
a proceeding which amused the baby
no less than it did the cripple and the
deaf mute, who had never seen it be—
fore and who accepted it as a huge
Christmas joke along with the rest of
the fun.
Thus in another hour the happy par-
ty separated to meet in such associa-
tion perhaps mever again on earth,
and Dorothy, standing in the center of
the departing group, and receiv-
ing their fervent farewells witl:
glowing face and tear-dimmed eyes
seemed somehow to Colebrook tc
have the halo of the very Christ-child
himself about her pretty head, and
when the others had’all gone, and the
parlor lay in that soft light that the
snow-covered earth sends through un-
shaded windows with the approach of
night, the man had exercised the cynic,
and the lover stood revealed.
“Scheherezade,” he said softly, “you
were right. The day you planned for
others has been full of blessings. You
were the 'necromanoer who brought
them all together. And now only you
and I are left alone. Shall we not fin.-
ish out the circlet of this Christmas
garland by pledging a life of love and
devotion to each other?"
Mary Ann brought in the tea things
just then, and Dordthy hid hcr blushes
behind the urn, while the face of the
tall man at the other side of the table
had taken on a look of grave sweet-
ness that had never rested there be-
fore. - .

Little Willie Could Spell.
Just about Christmas time Mr. and
Mrs. Harlemflatte find it necessary to
do a great deal of spelling when they
converse regarding shopping tours in
the presence of their son, in whose
mind they wish to preserve the Santa
Clause traditions.
The other night Mr. Harlemflatte had
come in laden with bundles, and when
he had been relieved of them and was
seated at the dinner table the conver-
sation began in the usual way, for lit-
tle Willie was present.
“Did you get the s-k-a-t-e-s and the
d-r-u-m that h-e has b-e-e-n asking
for?” asked Mrs. H., as she began serv-
ing the vegetables.
“Yes, and there was a n-i-c-e s-l-e-d
for one eighty-five, and I took it,” an-
swered Mr. H., smiling at his young
son and heir.
“You didn’t "forget the t-i-n so-l-
d-i-e-r-s and the t-r-u-m-p-e-t I hope ?”
said his wife, “and the w-i-g and the
w-h-i-s-k-e-r-s that you are to wear
with the S-a-n-t’a C-l-a-u-s costume?"
“No. Got ’em all,” answered Mr.
Harlemflatte.
“I’ll bet'- you forgot the v-e-l-o-s-s-i-
p-e-d-e, now, didn’t you?” she asked
anxiously.
“That ain’t right," broke in little
Willie. “It’s v-e-l-o-c-i-p-e-d-e, ain’t
it, Pop, and say, Pop, is it one of the
kind that goes all round the block
without stopping?”

IS COMING.
Christmas Day.
Everybody knows that Christmas
Day falls on the 25th day of December
Of course! So it does—now. But
it did not always do so. In the early
centuries of Christianity the feast was
kept up at various dates in the months
of January, April, and May. For more
than three hundred years, January 6th
was Christmas Day in the Eastern,
Church. The Abyssinians called June
21st Christmas Day; while among the
Armenians Christmas Day. has always
been January 18th, and is so now. The
exact date is quite unknown.
The custom of decking our houses
and churches with holly and mistletoe
on this day is an exceedingly ancient
one, and there seems little doubt that
it is a remnant of the religious observ-
ances of the Druids.
A Designing Mother.
“I am really delighted at the interes'
I my boy Tommy is taking in his writ-
ing,” said Mrs. Hickleby. "He spend:

“Really? How strange!

“Oh, as for that, I told him to write
me out a list of everything he wantec
for Christmas, and he’s still at it.——

TRY THE FOOD ON A MAN.
Wily Woman Hits on 9 Plan to Interest
- ’the Maid in Cooking. .
“Kitchen. and cooking, women and
home, are among the most meaningful
words in life,” said Dr. Mary E. Green
forcefully. And the women acknowl-
edged, with an acquiescent sigh, that
therein lay the pith of the problem.
The New York Household Ecopomic
Association, at the Carnegie Building,
was deep in the study of “How to ele‘
vate household labor to the dignity of
a profession.” '
“Women,” continued the trenchant
speaker, “have lacked respect for the
laws of nature.” '
The Economites shook themselves
together.
l “Oh! Yes they have! They have fear-
ed thunder and ignored the microbe.
(They shriek at the sight of a toad
and get off a car backward.”
! Dr. Green was piling up her accusa-
‘ lions. ”
l “They expect hot, foul air to come
‘ down from the top of a room and go
obediently out of the window. Yes,"
she nodded vigorously, “and they poke
1. fire on top”——this with supreme dis-
iain—“and then wonder why it doesn't
burn.”
The women gasped as she neatly hit
eff their little weaknesses. But worse
was to come.
“Women are mere servile imitators.
[‘0 most of them the chemistry of foods
is an abstruse science.”
Dr. Green was rounding up the case
for the prosecution. Firing a search-
ing eye upon the culprits before her
:he demanded with awful finality: _
“As to bread-making and the baking
of it, how many of you know what
constitutes good and healthful
bread?”
There was a silence. Not an aspir-
ing young housekeeper among them
iared make reply.
“I went to the council of Women’s
Clubs in Nashville,” Dr. Green con-
:inued, “and what do you suppose
:hey talked of? Suffrage and patriot-
.sm and a women’s relief corps and lit-
erature and—not one word about
acme. If they had considered the diets
of different nations they would have
learned what part food played in their
national character and religion.”
This was a new point of view.
“I wonder,” said Mrs. William G:
Shieler, the president, “if we all tell
:he washerwoman when she had a
lrunken husband that it was because
she doesn’t know how to feed him? We
tre all ignorant of these matters. It’s
I. delicate matter to tell that to women
who look as if they had nice homes
tnd”-—weakening a. little as she gazed
wound—“present company is of course
excepted. But New York is behind the
:imes. Our school in domestic science
5 just beginning, and it’s so badly
needed.”
Mrs. Larned, of the Syracuse school,
volunteered the best method of secur-
ng pupils. .
“Mistress and maid must work to-
gether. We tried separate ones, but
ind the working girls were glad
anough to learn dancing or embroidery
ire.” .
“In Boston,” suggested a woman
from the City of Culture, “the mistress
frequently stays at home to cook the
unch and lets the maid go to the cook-
ng school to take a. lesson as a sort of
'ecreation.”
This method did not altogether com-
nend itself to New Yorkers, and there
vas a general raising of eyebrows.
:lass,” from Mrs. Larned. “And make
:he study entertaining for her. Use a
.ittle strategy. For instance, let her
iave her young man come to take her
name” ,, __
“I should say," finished Mrs. E. L.
Llexander, “let the young man come
. iarly and eat what she cooks”
And the clause opening the associa-
.ion to men was incorporated in the
:onstitution.—New York World.
\An Inupt Illustration.
It is related by an English publica-
.ion that a Scotch clergyman, remark-
ible for the simplicity and force of
iis-style, was one day discoursing on
:he text, “Except ye repent, 'ye shall
.ikewise perish.” -
In order to impress upon his hearers
:he importance of attending to the
solemn truth contained in the passage,
me made use of a figure of a very sim-
Jle but striking character.
“Yes, my friends," he emphatically
1rged, “unless ye repent ye shall sure-
,y perish,” placing one of his fingers
in the wing of a blue fly which alight-
atl on his Bible, and having his right
land uplifted, “just as sure, my
friends, as I‘ll flatten this blue fly!”
Before the blow was struck the fly
got off, upon which the minister, at the
:01) of his voice, exclaimed:
“Ah, well! There’s a chance for ye
yet, my frien s!”

EXCITEMENT IN HAYTI.
Public Is Bitter Over the Govern-
ment’s Surrender to Germany.
Port au Prince, Hayti, Dec. 9.—~Count
Schwerin, the German Minister, was re-
ceived by the President yesterday 31-
ternoon. The public mind continues
agitated, and all the regulars and the
National Guard are in readiness.
Shortly before 2 o'clock the President
issued a proclamation to the people of
Hayti, saying that for the second time
Hayti had yielded to German force,
contrary to its rights. The Govern-
ment, according to the proclamation,
had decided to resist even to the last,
but owing to the lack of promised
moral influence, the character of‘which
is not indicated in the proclamation, it
was obliged to accept the ultimatum.
The proclamation invites the Haytian
people to stop internal quarrélings and
'to labor for the raising up again of the
nation. ° '
