THE RETURN. A CHRISTIIAS BTOIiY BY O. T. FERIUS. ICopyrlght, 1807. by tho Author. JVogtrntcd hope threw its blight on tho rhotiry old fnco n Mrs. Martin roiul tho letter from hor ion Pnul. Ho had tioon a wanderer for clht yeari mid now wroto irara South Africa. Tho emtio feeling haunted Kito Lor kwood's fine eyes, though he bit her lip at tho conscious rcvclal lou Hot Mrs. Murtln did not reo. Her ejrs wcro blurred. And murrtnirlriff, "Whnt ronltl hnvo hnppened to chnnge his mind?" is It It wero tho presngo of some greater blow, sho went on with tho roiullng: "I'd frlvo a few 'sparklers' to bo with ?ou on Christmas, as I had planned. Hut j fellow can't always fulfill his own wtsh- It's Ix-tter to hnvo everything wound up beforo leaving. South Africa has treat ml mo pretty woll up hero in its diamond Jolds, so I shouldn't kick If it keeps nib in its clutch a llttlo longer. I shan't bo sor ry to leavo this furnnco behind. When my latter roaches, Jock Frost will Iw abroad with you in Vermont, clad in too and snow, but hero a man will bo baking at '..'6 In tho sliado. I'm burned as black as .my Knlllr in tho mines, so that you and Ivnto would scarcely know my swarthy phi. liy tho way, yon may tell that young woman from mo that I don't half like her coings on with tho Swlnton man. Didn't ho promlso to wait for me? I shall havo s word to say to her about her faithless ness. " And so Paul's letter rambled on in a scmlchafling tono. Knto's fnco had darkened to angry srorlct when Mrs. Mar tin looked up and said: "Why, tny dear, yon mustn't tako Paul's Jokes so hard. Von know what a 'tcaso' bo was from a boy." That was precisely tho trouble. Paul had always been joking, Kato feared. A distant cousin and reared in tho family, over sinco sho had emerged Into woman hood a moro tumultuous sweetness had mingled with tho calm affection sho had moo felt for Paul oven as sho hnd for his cider brother W11L When ho had gono away, sho was only 17, and keenly sho had quivered with tho pang of parting. Year after year had slid by, and tho rolling utone found no rest and tho girl's soro heart had certainly found no balm In tho absent Paul's Jocoso phrases. Yet sho had sometimes fancied a thrill of sentiment und tenderness quickening his sportivo al lusions. At all events suitors bad lacked fuel for their fire, a her friends rallied the young schoolteacher t hut tho only men folk sho liked were tho lads, with whom sho could bo"jolly good in a mot;t fascinating way. Her latest admirer, tho head of a prosperous factory and much liked by tho Martins, had no better luck than predecessors. "There was a time," tho old lady con tinued in reminiscent mood as tiho laid down tho letter, "when I hoped you nnd Paul would como together some day; but, tackaday, that's nil done with. I enn't understand tho girls nowadays. I b'ioko yon ain't ufeared of bclu left an old maid, fer, you know, you'ro good lookin" and Mrs. Martin peered quizzically at Kato over her glosses "but still you might never have such a good offer as Mr. Swin ton plenty of money, not too old, nnd as stood as gold. As for Puul's stayiu awny mother year" "What's that about Paul's not comln homo? " Mr. Martin's jolly red face, now beginning to pucker with years and caro, was filled with dismay as ho suddenly en tered tho room. " That scapegrace of ourn ought er bo thrashed cf ho's a-goin to dis ;ippolnt us ng'ln. " So Mrs. Martin again read tho letter aloud, whllo Kate, amid tho varied comment of tho old couple, escaped for a hearty cry. Farmer Martin's gloom had a deeper root than ordinary miscarriage of hope. 'I'd ruther looked to Paul's help ef tho wust comes," said he to his wife, "fer Will's got all ho can shoulder. Tho mort irage on tho placo has never been easy to meet what with poor crops nnd low prices. I mot Squire Barber jes' now, and t told him wo cxpectod Paul. 'Fer sure,' id he, and laughed with his 'Ho, hoi' like somo danged olo hyeny, ond then ho said ho hoped thero wouldn't bo any delay this yenr 'bout tho niortaso money or somethin might turn up, and then he outs with another snicker. Confound his hide, it's as heartless as his sheepskin books, fer I hod alius reckoned him a friend oforo. " , Though Christmas did not promlso any appetizing sauco for its turkey und ruirico "WHAT ATEA8EI" pie, activo preparation wont on as usual, tor Will and his children would bo thero, and their hearts must bo glnddened with Christmas sunshine. Arllngford had in deed always kept tho day with moro fervor than is tho wont with most Xew Kngland country towns. It was tho day befoio Christmas and tho farmer was returning from tho woods, whither ho had gono to select the Christmas tree. Tho crisp, sweet ah? was musical with slelghbells, for the earth was shcuthod In dazzling whlto. As be turned into tho main street, his bobsled almost collided with a fast cutter spinning homeward from Chester. It was Bqulro Barber returning from tho county seat, some eight ndles distant, where bis law office was located. "Morry Christmas, If it isn't too early I' shouted tho lawyer, pulling up. "What hawe you got there? Holly, and as I live mistletoe too. I haven't seen any beforo for an age. " "Yes," sold Mr. Martin, "It comes and goes In a curious way. 1 hain't found it growln fer ton years till I got this from a half rotten applo tree in tho upper or chard." And he held upa sprlgof it with its yellow loaves and whitish berries shin ing like cruntod silver in the winter sparkle of the sun. , "The old legend soys it krliifT" pood Inck, " answered the lawyer "1 11 .Imp in this eventag and sea It haii;:Ing, for the dunce of kibutng pretty Kato under tho A III II III llll. 1 1 IH IB lUtm IIIIIIWII IIIIMH III mistletoe, unless Pwinton gets ahead of mo." And ho chuckled heartily to himself as ho drove on. Tho Martins had attended the early sorvlco in tho church and were now gath ered in tho big parlor where the Chrlstmns tree was set loaded with presents and the children wore- all ngog with eagerness. Mr. Swlnton was a guest of tho occasion, though not much to Kate's plrasurc. Tho tree had been almost stripped of Its burden nmld tho jubilation of the youngsters, nnd even IVul's ansrnro rouHn't quite queneh tho heartsomo glow of the old folk. "Ow I 'ood liko to soo Santy Cans hls sef 'en he comes down tho ehlmlny to nlghtl" said llttlo May Martin, hor mouth gorged with dripping sweets. Just then a tremendous clashing of bells rang out ns If a wholo caravan of sleighs wero coming up tho road. Louder nnd louder chimed tho silvery nwiclo till it stopped before tho door amid tho pawing of horses' hoofs. " Who can it bo?" they all said to each other. "Perhaps It is Santa Claus, " whis pered Kato to little May. Tho child caught HOW TUB OLD MOTHEIt ClilED AND HUGGED II 1M. at tho entrancing thought ond rushed to tho front door. They heard a scream of terror, ond May darted back, gasping nnd white, to hldo her faco In her father's lap. Santa Claus Indeed had como to tho child's invocation. Framed in tho door way nnd seeming almost to fill It stood a great, fur clad figuro, looking liko a gi gantic bear on its hind legs. A fur hel mot covered tho wholo face, with goggles in tho eyelet holes, and on tho furry arm hung a big basket with bulging contents. Amid tho breathless silence and wonder tho uncouth figuro stalked to tho Christ mas treo and crowded Its empty boughs with such a largess of parcels as to bend them low. As tho pantomlmo went on Mr. Martin nodded to his wlfo nnd Knte ond then toward tholr guest as if to say, "This little comedy is tho pleasant sur prlso of a rich man's wooing. " Hut Swin ton's eyes were bent on Santa Clans with a queer look of dread and expectancy, could they havo gauged his thought,. Not a word was uttered till tho fur clad image had closed his task, when a hoarse. .rumbling volco, as Lf it had been mndo raucous by shouting against polar blasts, Issued from under tho fur hood, calling them by name and summoning them to receive their gifts. Tho children's turn came first. Tho trembling youngsters wero loaded witli such gorgeous and won derful toys as they had never dreamed could exist. Will Martin got a box con taining a Benlskin cap and gloves. Tho wonderful fur cloak which anta Claus threw around Mrs. Martin was lit for tho shoulders of a queen, as sho stood thero quivering with cariosity nnd a dumb pro sago that feared to uiuno itself und stam mering thanks that chokod In tho throat. In tho farmer's hands was placed a largo sealed envelope, and ho blinked and peered as if ho would unravel somo clew to tho impassive mystery which faced him. He itched to tear oiien tho cuvelopo, but wait ed. Kato Loekwood's nnmo wns called, nnd hor trembling limbs could scarcely carry her forward. A llttlo box was snapped open nnd a superb dinmond ring blazed like a star. Sho grow dizzy, lor a blinding ilasft of intelligence came even beforo thnt furry mask was torn oil with a swift ges ture and tho bronzed faco of Paul, twitch ing with emotions of joy and tenderness. appeared to them. How tho old mother cried und hugged him till her arms wero weary; how tho men folk wrung his hand and overwhelmed hlni with broken, eager questioning, and how the children mado shy acquaintance with tho unknown uncle Santa Claus need not bo recounted. "And has my Kato no grouting?" Paul said. Sho came forward with cheeks of flnmo from whore she had stood aloof, be wildered with a rush of feelings. Ho gazed at her shining eyes, nnd her heart leaped at tho lover's deep look. Then ho happened to notice tho twisted vino of leaf and berry that swayed over her head, tho tlmo honored symbol of a thousand sweet mysteries. "Under tho mistletoe, too," ho lauahod. IIo was tho same old teasing Paul. "That is as it should bo. " And ho took his privi lege then and thero, drawing her sweet laco to Ms and kissing her on the lips bo foro them all. "Look," he whispered, "nt tho inner circle of the ring," and thero Kate saw on graved,' "From Paul to tho woman ho loves," nnd that wus Paul's proposal, an swered to his satisfaction by ono flashing glanco, veiled us quickly by tho modest eyelashes. "I've been ringing and hammerlnir at tho outer door for five inluvw, and no ono came, so I walked in," said a now voice as Squlro Harbor entered. "1 suppose you'vo got everything fixed to your wishes now, ana that tho uilstlotoo brought good luck." "You old fox, you knew all about it." burst forth the farmer, nnd with rtiought ho opened tho envelope and saw it was a "mortgngo satisfaction" paper. "So it was Puul and you that put up this wnrisrmas joko. " "Yes, dad," said Paul without a bit of remorso. "I think wo did it in pretty good stylo too. I started front South Africa at the same tlmo I posted that let ter as a blind and lauded moro than a fort night since, Tho rest wns easily fixed, and 1 determined to shako you ail up with a big surprise. And I have proved such a successful Santa Cluus that a certain young Womun has concluded to let mo play Santa Claus to her for life. " "Where's Mr. Swinton?" said tho farm er, with a kocn recollection of incivility, for in the agitation of tho scene all had forgotten him. Lovo is sometimes very selfish. Their guest of tho early evening bad unobtrusively slipped uway. Ho know ho was ono too many. ClirUtmutlde. Bt.mo any that ever 'umnst that season cornea Wlwroin our Knvlour's birth is celebrated.

An American manufacturer, writing from Jnpan, says that those alarmists who would make the world believe that the Japanese can do everything don't know what they ore talking about, nnd that the people of the Flowery I .And, unless they change tlioir entire nr.turo, or at nil events their methods, can never become for midable commercial rlvnls with any civilized Power. The real fact Is that the Japs do nothing; they only half do It, and therein lies the cause of their failure. The Jnpa think of nothing but the present; of what h can make now, and how, by making hla commodities a little Inferior, he can odd a few more cents to his profit There Is no such a thing as standard quality. You are never sure of getting the quality you arc asked to pay for. So tnucn is this bo In Japan that a man seldom buys an article without unwrapping nnd examining it on the spot. Tho correspondent continues: The Japanese mind is so small thnt it Is difficult to weigh it with Ameri can scales; in fact, It may be said that It Is made up of trifles, and It Is the attention the labored attention tho Jap gives to these trifles which makes him incapable of ever becoming any thing more than a unit In whatever he may be concerned in. As an illustra tion of what I mean, I will give ex amples which are of dally occurrence. You want to buy an article, and you ask how much it is. The answer Is, say, 1 cent. Then you ask how much the articles are by the dozen, fully expecting that you will get them for 10 cents. You are not a little amazed when tho merchant tells you thirteen cents tho dozen. You get mad, call the man a fool, and Insist that you ought to get a reduction by taking a quantity. Not so with the Jap; that Is not his way of doing business. It Is the same with the manufacturer. You give him an order for a hundred of a kind, ond then wish to nir.ke it a thousand. Immediately he demands an advance In the price. Should he, however, reluctant! agree to tako tl; increased order at the original pike, you will probably get the first hun dred articles fairly up to sample but ns the delivery goes on the quali'y is sure to fall off. And thl3 smal'.r.'.-a Is not confined to email people. It per meates tho whole country. Hjstcn Transcript. A TREE THAT SLEEPS. The Trnnaformnt Inn Tuki l'lure in About Twenty T'Unule. Near the western border of Ehipor.t Circle, in Washugion, D. C, stands a tree that goes to sleep promptly eveiy night at 7 o'clock. 1 tr.c tree is known as the Alblzzia Jullbrisaau, having been christened so by an Italian bo tanist In honor of the Alblzzi family In Florence. The tree, however, Is an original of Japan and Is known there as the Japanose silk tree, probably on account of the silky appearance of its blossoms. Soon after 7 o'clock in the evening a general motion is noticed In the foliage, a quiver or trembling oi the blplnnate leaves. Each leaflet be gins to stand up on edge and palra with the one opoalte. They clasp each other tightly and then close up with the other on tho petiole, so that each becomes a coverlet over half of the preceding one. The entire trans formation takes place In about twenty minutes, and usually at about 7.30 the respiratory organism of this tre: hangs limp or droopy on the branches. Small branches kept In a dark room promptly close at 7 P. M. New York World. WIT AND HUMOR. "I admire tho machine very much.' sho said, ns the ttgeut trotted out n now 1)7 model for her inspection.

The Merchants' Exchange at San Francisco, has received a telegram from Nanaimo, mi which the captain of the missing steamer Cleveland says that his vessel has been wrecked on the coast of Vancouver Island. No other details are given. The Cleveland left San Francisco for Seattle about fifteen days ago, and it is known that she encountered fierce gales. She carrieii a cr;w of 30 men and about 12 passengers. The Cleveland was a large iron steamer, and had a series of misfor tunes. She was owned by Charles Nelson, and was commanded by Captain C. F. Hall. It is supposed the steamer's machinery oecame disabled, and that she was blown out of her course while under sail. The steamer went ashore at Cape Deals, on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Among the passengers were W. I. Detrick, Frank Garthan and ten others. The purser of the ship has arrived at Nanaimo, having gone across the island. He reports twenty two of the crew missing! It is supposed that they took to the boats and were blown out to sea. MEANS STARVATION FOR HUNDREDS. Theloss ot the Cleveland means starvation to hundreds, of whom many cannot survive. The Cleveland was laden with hun dreds of tons of provisions for the Klondike miners. The supplies were destined for Taiya and Skaguay. They were imperatively needed to keep alive the array of miners there. The loss means that they will be forced to go to short rations early in the winter. As the gravest fears of starvation have been expressed, even ! counting with the Cleveland's supplies, it is certain that the suffering will be ! greatlv increased. I Klondike merchants have given up t the Cleveland. They have telcgraph ! ed urgent messages for another shin- load of provisions to be rushed through regardless of danger or expense, as it means lite or death to hundreds. I'F.RIL OF OTHER VESSELS. Eighteen other ships and schooners bound for this port from Gars Harbor are overdue from eleven to fourteen days. There is no question that many, if not all, of them have been lost in the December gales that have swept their course. They Disappear. "I was afflicted with scrofula for a number of years and tried several different kinds of medicine without relief. Finally I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla to cleanse my blood and in a short time after I began taking it the scrofula sores disappeared and I am now entirely well." John M.

" How dear to our heart is the old silver dollar, when some kind sub scriber presents"it to view; the Lib erty head without necktie or collar, and all the strange things which to us seem so new; the wide-spreading eagle, the arrows below it, the stars and the words with the strange things they tell; the coin of our fathers, we're glad that we knew it, for some time or other 'twill come in right well ; the star-spangled dollar, the old silver doliar we all love so well." Jix. , Who is Out ? Here is something to think about. A man owed $1 and had but 75 cents. He went to a pawn broker and pawned the 75 cents for 50 cents. He met a friend and sold him the pawn ticket calling for 75 cents for 50 cents. He thus had two 50-cent pieces, $1 in fact, with which he paid his debt. Was anyone out and how much ?
