"You want one pretty girl, don't you V said Mrs. Bradford, with a laugh. " I wonder I did not think of Polly Peace before. Bat, yoa see, I was getting cp a rewst, not exactly for tbe lame, the halt, and the Hind, but for people who are not likely to be remembered by anyone eh and, doubtless, Miss Polly will be. However, you may risk her. She will find it a dull party, ihougk" So, the invitations were written and j?nt, and Jessie Jackson sent word that she would be so glad to come, for she bad never been alone on Christmas even ing before, ami, if ever the ghost should come op the cellar stairs, she felt sure it would be then. And old Mrs. Merry field sent her compliments, and said she wa charmed. And old Mr. Vellum was "highly honored." And the young op erator, Mr. James, felt it consistent with his dignity to state that he would 'post pone all other engagemi nts for so charm ing a one" which it was wonderfully ea?y for him to do, to tell tbe truth. And the old music teacher and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. OrTenheimer, composed a note in the English language which it was quite impossible to interpret, save a an acceptance. And, last of all, MLs Polly Peace sent, "Thanks; I was wonlering what I should do with myself on Christ mas night." So they were all comin? indeed, they had aH come, and the Onnans played everything they had ever heard for them, and the old lady had brought ber knit ting, and was talking with Mrs. Merry- field, who had travelled in Earope with ber husband and was delighted, to meet someone with whom she could chat intel ligently of all she had seen there. Young Mr. James had coaxed uttle Jessie Jackson to talk, and Mr. Vellum had lonnd some rare book in wbkh be bad buried himself ; and Ms Poily Peace wae the object of the adoring attention of both yooog men 7. while Mrs. Bradford flitted about, doing her best to make ber guests comfortable, dipper was a suc cess. Mr. OSenheimer played, and there was dancing. Even tbe librarian joined in tbe quadrille, although he invariably made mistake ia every figure, and old Mrs. Merry field did tbe steps as she had been taught in dancing-school in her youth. Mr. James proved to Jeeie Jackson that nthing was so easy as the polka. And Polly Peace declared that she never before herd music that made one dance Lad loved remembered Roy aa fondly as ever. "It's a shame," said little Mrs. Erwin Bradford, on the 22d of December of that year. "It's a shame and a pity, Er win, that we should never keep up Christmas in the good old-fashioned way. Here are the children growing large enough to understand, and they'll re member ns as heathen, I'm afraid. Why not have a little Christmas party for once?" "Yoa know what sad memories we connect with Christmas, Susie," said Er win. "Yes, my dear," answered his wife, "and were it any other day, I'd say nothing. But it's not only ourselves we think cf in our Christmas keeping. It's a day one should keep. I'm sure your mother will agree with roe." So Susie had her way. Mrs. P.radford was too sensible not to yield ; and, for the first time since the disappearance of Roy Bradferd there was a Chris. aias merry-mating in the Bradford mane ion. Susie had not meant it so ; but slie had no particular account of the guesta of that evening. And they all were, Mr. and Mrs. Vellum ; Mr. James, hi wife and two children ; tbe good Germans ; and necessarily, Polly Peace, Mr. Peace, tbe father of the family, a younger daagh- j ter and son, and one or two other neigh bors. The table was set in the dining-room, and tbe truest were about to be summon ed to tea. Meanwhile the old music teacher play ed on the piano first a gay tune for the chiidren, then a dance ; then he wander ed away into the sentimental masie he loved best, and the notes of that beautiful song, " The Long, Long Weary Iay, fell upon the ears of bis listeners. Polly Peace knew the word well. As she mentally followed them, tears rose to her eyes. She could hear no more ; she stole softly out of the room, aad, open ing the front door, stood on the porch ia the moonlight Everything was aa bright as day. But for tbe lattice-work that crossed tiie end of the porch ah must have seen a man who stood there. A mo ment before he had been upon the porch looking through the window blind into tho parlor. Now he had stolen arounl toward tbe diningroom, possibly with an S'hcsaid nothing, but let hi:n kias Ltr 8,-ain, and left hiui. When the returned both mother and brother were w ith her. Oh, what a Chr.atmas wyvr avau-ai. How little Mrs. James laoghed with joy until she cried ! bow the old Vellums de clared thev always said so always! how many weicomi.-s home the German pSay ed on the piano, and how Mr?. OJen heinier kised Roy on both cheek 1 The ghildren were joyous over their new un cle, and the mut'ier thanked heaven. It was midnight when the gues re tained Louie, and, when Polly departed, Roy offered her ha arm. They walked siuwly, and let the rest leave them be hind ia the still viilaze street. " Polly," he said, " do you know that I only meant to peep in at the windows of ray old home and go away again ? I nev er meant to coine in." " That was cruel of your mother," said j she. " Yes," he said, " I know bow wrong it was now ; but I was thinking of my self. They told me, down ia the village, that Erwin had married a Miss Peace. I thought, of course, it was you, and I ha ted him, aad felt that no one would care to see me ; but I wanted a glimpse of i my mother's face, and yours, so I came to ! get it. Then, thank God 1 I heard what vou said to your sister." Fast That They May Eat. the il ria aal Arnt rei, especially for foreigner? sdmirers of tie church who do not belong to its coaimank'B.

"That is quite trie, br.t I have a better reason to lament, frl shall t-e slaughtered ia two days for a funeral feast, and yoa in six months f. rau.ar riage. which ia better." "Who wid die, then?"
