AtTORY FOR TUE LITTLE FOLKS TESSA'S SURPRISE& Little Tessa saf alone by the fire, waiting for her father to come home from work.— The children Were last asleep, all four in the big bed behind the curtain ; the wind blew hard outside, and th‘ snow beat on the window panes ; the rbom was large, and the fire so small and feeble, that It didn't half wanu the little bare toes peeping out of the old shoes on the hearth. Tessa's father was an Italian Ouster work er, very poor, but kind and bon*. The mother had died not long ago, and left twelve-year old Tessa to take care otThe little children. She tried to be very wise , and motherly, and wotked-for them like any little woman ; but it was so hard to keep the small bodies warm and fed, and the small souls good and happy, that poor Tessa was often at her wit's end. She always waited for her father, no matter how tired she was, so that he might find his supper warm, a bit of fire, and a loving little Ace to welcome him. Tessa thought over her plans ir her fathertriaoublesroattheseei left flingsttimes,an madeto per a e her good deal, and She had no friends but Tom- MO, the harp-boy, up stairs, and a lively cricket,who lived In the chimney. To-night, her face was very sober, and her pretty brown eyes very thoughtful as she stared at the fire, and knit her brows, as if per plexed. She was not thinking of her old Shoes, no; the empty closet, nor the boys' ragged clothes, just Weil. No ; she bad a fine plan in her good little head, and was trying to discover bow the could carry it out. You see, Christmas was coming is a week ; and she had set her heart on putting something in the children's stockings, as the mother used to do, for while she lived things were comfortable. Now, Tessa had not a penny in the world, tatd didn't know how to get one, for all the father's earnings had to go for food, fire and rent. ' "Inhere were only fairies, ah, how heavenly that would be ; for then, I should tell thelit all I wish, and, pop ! behold the fine things in my lap I" said Tessa to her self "I must earn the money ; there is no one to give It to me, and I cannot beg.— But, what can I do, so small and stupid and shy as I am ? I must find some way to give the little ones a nice Christmas. I must ! I must 1" and Tessa pulled her, long hair, as if that would help her to think. But it didn't, and her heart got heavier ; for it did seem hard, that In a great city full of fine things, there should be none for poor Nono, Sep and little Speranza. Just as Tessa's tears began to tumble off her eye lashes on to her brown cheeks, the cricket began to chirp. Of course, he didn't say a word ; but it really did seem as if he had answered her question almost as well as a fairy: for, before he had piped a dozen shrill notes, an idea popped into Tessa's head —such a truly splendid idea, that she clap ped her hands, and 'burst out laughing.— "I'll do It ! I'll do it ! if father will let me," she said to herself, smiling and nodding at the fire. "Tommo will like to have me go with him and sing, while he plays his harp in the streets. - I know many songs, and may get money if lam not frightened ; for people throw pennies to (*her little girls who only play the tanthourine. Yes, I will try ; and then, if I do well, the little ones shall have a Merry Christuitut." Next morning the sun shone, but the cold wind blew, and the snow lay thick in the streets. As soon as her father was gone, Tessa flew about, and put everything in nice order, telling the children she was go ing out for the day, and they wore to mind Tommo's mother, who would see about the fire and the dinner ; for the good woman loved Tessa, and entered Into her little plans -with all her heart. Nono and Guiseppe, or Sep, as they called him, wondered what she was.going away for, and little Rama cried at being left ; but Tessa told them they would know nJI about it in a week, and have a fine time, if they were good ; so they kissed her all round, and let her go. Poor Tessa 's heart beat fast, as she trudg ed-awny with Tommo, who slung his harp ovei his shoulder, and gave her his hartd.-- 4. as talker a dirty hand, but so kind that Tessa Flung to it, and kept looking sit at the friendly brown fape for encouragement. "We go ftrat to the cafe, where many French and Italian's eati breakfatit. They like my music, and often give 'me sips of hot coffee, which I like much. You too shall have the sips, and perhaps the pennies, for these people are greatly kind," said Tommo, leading her into a large smoky place, where many people sat at little ta bles, eating and drinking. "See, now, have no fear ; give them 'Bella Monica ;' that is merry, and will make them laugh," whispered Tommo, tuning his harp. For a moment, Tessa hit so frightened that she wanted to run away; but she re membered the empty stockings at home, and the lonely plami, and she resolved not to gin It PP, Ora at bid Frenchman nod ded to her, and it seabed to kelp her very much; for she began to sing before she thought, and that was he holiest part of it. He voice' trembled, and her cheeks grew redder and redder as she wanton; but she kept her eyes Axed on her old shoes, and so got through without breaingdown Which was very nice. The people laughed, for the song wairnerry ; and the fat man smiled, and nodded again. This gave her &image to try another, and she sung better and better ma timer.

The people there are busy, or hard, or idle,, and care nothing for harps and songs. Do not skip and laugh trio soon ; for the day is long, and we have but twelve pennies yet." Alt this . afternoon, the two friends wan dered about, singing and playing, and gath ering up their small harvest. At dusk, they went home,—Tessa so hoarse,, she could hardly speak, and so tired, she- fell asleep over her supper. But she had made half a dollar,for Tommo divided the money fairly, and she felt rich with her share. The other days were very much like this; sometimes they made more, sometimes less, but Tom mo always "went halves ;'qnd Tessa kept on, in spite of cold and weariness, for her plans grew as her earnings increased, and now she hoped to get useful things, instead 'of candy and toys alone.. On the day before Christmas, she made herself tidy as she could, for she hoped to earn a good deaL She tied a bright scarlet handkerchief over*the old hood, and the brilliant color set off ler brown cheeks and bright eyes, as well as the pretty black braids of her hair. Tomato's mother lent her a pair of boots so big, that they turned up at the toes, but there were no holes in them, and Tessa felt quite elegant in whole boots. Her hands were covered with chil blains, for she had no mittens; but she put them under her shawl, and scuffled merrily away in her big boots; feeling so glad that the week was over, and nearly three dollars safe in her pocket. How gay the streets were that day ; how brisk every one wilt, and how bright the faces looked, as people trotted about with big baskets,' holly wreaths, and young evergreens going to blossom into splendid C h ristmas trees. "If I - could have a tree for the children, I'd never want anything again. But I can't; sou I ' ll fill the socks all full, and be happy," said'Tessa, as she looked wistfully into the gay store, and saw the heavy baskets go by. - "We'll try one more street, and then go home, thou art so tired, little one. Come ; let me wipe thy thee, - and give me thy hand here in my packet-pocket; there it will be as warm as any kitten ;" and kind Tommo brushed away the drops which were not all rain from Tessa's cheeks, tucked the poor hand into his ragged pocket, and fed her carefUlly along the slippery streets, for the boots nearly tripped her up. _ At the first house, a cross old gentleman Sapped his newspaper at them; at the sec ond, a young gentleman and lady were so busy talking, that they never turned their heads ; and et the third, a servant came out and told them to go away, because some one was sick. At the fourth, some people let them sing all their songs, and gave noth ing. The next three houses were empty ; and the last of all showed not a single face, as they looked up anxiously. It was so cold, so dark and discuraging, that Tessa couldn't help one sob ; and, as he glanced down at the little red nose and wet figure beside him, Tommo gave his harp an angry thump, end said something very fierce in Italian. They were just going to turn away; but they didn't,for that angry thump happened to be the best thing they could have done. All of a sudden, a little head appeared at the window, as lithe sound had brought it; 'then another, and another, till there were five, of all heights and colors, and five eager faces peeped out, smiling and nodding to the two below. "Sing, Tessa; sing! quick ! quick!" cried Tommo, twanging evilly with all his might, and showing his white teeth, as he smiled back at the little gentlefolk. Bless us! How Tessa did tune up at that! She chirped away like a real bird, forgetting all about the tears on her cheeks, the ache in her hands, and the heaviness at her heart. The children laughed, and' clapped their hands, and cried "More! more! Sing another, little girl! Please do!!" And away they went again, piping and playing, till Tessa's breath was gone, and Tommo's stout fingers tingled well. "Mamma says, come to the door ; it's too muddy to throw the money in the street!" cried out a kindly child's voice, as Tessa held up the old cap with beseeching eyes. Up the wide stone steps went the street musicians; and the whole flock came run ning down tcrgive a handful of silver, and ask all sorts of questions. Tessa felt so grateful, that without waiting for Tommo, she sang her sweetest little song all alone. It was about a lost lamb, and her heart was in the song ; therefore, she sang it well, so well, that a pretty young lady came down to listen, and stood watching the bright eyed child, who looked about her as she sang, evidintly enjoying the light and warmth of the fine hall, and the sight of the lovely children with their gay dresses, shin ing hair, and dainty little shoes. "You have a charming voice, child.— Who taught you to sing ?" asked the young lady, kindly. "My mother. She Is dead now,but Ido not forget," answered Tessa, in her pretty broken English. "I wish she could sing at our tree, since Bella is ill," cried one of the children, peep ing through the banisters. • "She Is not fair enough for the angel, and too, large to go up in the tree. But she sings sweetly, and looks as if she would like to see a tree," said the young lady. !'Q4, so much !" exclaimed Tessa, adding, eagerly, 'Fitly sister flailp, s small and pret ty as. a baby-angel. She could sit up in the flap tree, and I could sing for her from un der the table." "Sit down ancl warm yourself, and jell me about Ranza," said the kind elder sister, who liked the confiding little girl, in , spite of her shabby clothes. So, Tessa sat down, and dried the blg, boots over the furnace, anttold her story ; while Tommo stood modestly in the back grocmd, and the children listened with faces fail of, interest. Rose Let rts see the littiggirl ; and if she will do, let ns have her, and Tessa can learn , our song, it will be splendid!" cried the biggest boy, who sat astride of a chair, and stared at the harp with round eyes. "I'll ask mamma," said Rose ; and away she went into the dining-room close by, As the door opened, Tease saw what look id to her like a flay feast,-411 silver mugs, and flowery'plates,• and oranges, and nuts, and rosy wine in tall glass pitohers, and smoking dishes that smelt so deliciously, she could notcetrala a little sniff of satisfac tion. "die you hungry ?" asked the boy, in a grand tone. meekly answered Tessa. "I say, mamma ; she wants something to eat.

"Ah yes ; I shall come with much glad ness, and play as never in my life before," cried Tommo, with a flourish of the old cap that made the children laugh. "Give these to your totuthers," said the fairy prince, stuffing nuts and oranges into Tessa's hands. "And these to the little girl," added one of the young princesses, flying out of the dining-room, with cakes and rosy apples for Ranza. Tessa didn't know what to say ; but her eyes were full, and she just took the moth. er's white hand In both her little grimy ones, and kissed It many times In her pretty Italian fashion. The lady understood . her, and stroked her cheek softly, saying to her elder daughter, "We must take care of this little sparrow, lest it fall to the ground. Freddy, bring me your mittens, these poor hands must be covered; Alice, get your play-hood ; this handkerchief is all wet ; and, Maud, bring the old chinehil a tippet." The children ran, and in a minute, there were lovely blue mittens on the red baftils, a warm hoed over the black braids, and a soft "pussy' . round the sere throat. "Ah ! so kind, so very kind ! I have no way to say 'thank you ;' but Ranzs shall be for yon a heavenly angel, and I will sing my heart out for your tree!" cried Tessa, folding the mittens as if she would say a prayer of thankfulness, if she knew how. Then they went away, and the pretty children called after them, "Come again,. Tessa ! Come 'again, Tommo !" Now, the rain didn't seem dismal, the wind cold, nor the way long, as they bought their (gifts and hurried home, for kinds words and the sweet magic of charity had changed all the world to them. I think the good spirits who fly about on Christmas Eve, to help the loving fillers of little stockings, smiled very kindly on Tessa, as she brooded joyfully over the small store of presents that seemed so magnificent to her. All the goodies were divided evenly into three parts, and stowed away in lath es's three big socks, which hung against the curtain. With her three dollars, she had got a pair of shoes for Nono, and a knit cap for Sep, and a pair of white stock ings for Ranza; to her, she also gave the new hood ; to Nono, the mittens ; and to Sep, the tippet. "Now, the dears boys can go out, and my Hann will be ready for the lady to see, In her nice new things," said Tessa, quite sighing with pleasure to see how well the gifts looked pinned up beside the bulging socks, which wouldn't hold them all. The little mother kept nothing for herself but the pleasure of giving everything away ; yet, I think, she was both richer and hap pier than if she had kept them -all. Her father laughed as he had not done since the mother died, when he saw how comically the old curtain had broken out into boots and hoods, stockings and tippets. PI wish I had a gold gown and a silver hat for thee, my Tessa, though art so good. May the saints bless and keep thee always l" said Peter Benari, tenderly, as he held his little daughter close, and gave bar the good night kiss. Tessa felt very rich as she crept under the faded counterpane, feeling as if she had received a lovely gift, and fell happily asleep, with chubby Hansa In her arms, and the two rough black heads peeping out at the foot of the bed. She dreamed wonder ful dreams that night, and woke in the morning to find real wonders before her eyes. She got up early, to see If the socks were all right, and there she found the most astonishing sight. Four socks, in stead of three ; and by the fourth, pinned out quite elegantly, was a little dress, evi dently meant for her,—a warm woolen dress, all made, and actually with bright buttons on it. It nearly took her breath away ; so did the new boots on the floor, and the funny long stocking like a grey sausage, with a wooden doll staring out at the top, as if she said, politely, "A Merry Christmas, ma'am :" Tessa screamed and danced in her delight, and up tumbled all the children to scream and dance'with her, making a regular carnival on a small scale. Everybody hugged and kissed everybody else, offered sucks of orange, bites of cake, and exchanges of candy; every one tried on the new things, . and pranced about in them like a flock of peacocks. Ranza skipped to and fro airily, dressed in her white socks and The red hood ; the boys promenaded in their► little shirts, one with his creaking new shoes and mittens, the other in his yellow cap and fine tippet; and Tessa put her dress straight on, • reefing that her father's."gold gown" was not all a joke. In her long stocking, she found all sorts of treasures ; for Tommo had stuffed it full of queer things, and his mother had made gingerbread into every Imaginable shape, from fat pigs to full omnibuses. Dear me 1 What happy little souls they were that morning ; and when they were quiet again, how like a fairy talc did Tessa's story sound to them. Itanza was quite ready to be an angel ; and the boys promis • ed to be marvellously good, if they were only allowed to see the tree at the "palace," as they called the great house. Tax Fotr.uts.—To think that the more a man eats the fatter and stronger he will become. To believe that the more hours children study at school the faster they learn. To conclude that, if exercise is good for the health, the more violent and ex hausting it is the more good is done. To imagine that every hour taken from sleep Is an hour gained. To gt on the presump tion that the smallest room in the house is large enough to sleep in. To argue that whatever remedy causes one to feel imme diately better is good for the system, with out regard to more ulterior effects. To com mit an act which is felt in itself to be pre judicial, hoping that, somehow or other, it may be done In your case with impunity. To advise another to take a remedy which you have not tried yourself, without making inquiry as to whether all the conditions are alike. To eat without an appetite, or to continue after it has been satisfied, merely to gratify the.taste. To eat a hearty supper for ,the pleasure experienced during the brief time it is passing down the throat, a the expense of a whole night of disturbed sleep, and a weary waking in the morning.

'l'hen rip up an old shoe that fits yen, cut a pattern off it, take a bit of linen or any ma terial you may happen to have, with strong drilling for lining ; cut out your gaiter by the pattern, making half an inch allowance for seam around the sole,, make the upper, neatly stitching your heel stiffeners in N.' tween the lining and the outside and leav ing both to come below it the' fourth of au inch, because cloth requires a deeper seam in joining to the sole. . Stitch on your tips, bind the top, work' the ilets, put in the strings, and lace it together. It is ti:, ready for the sole, which must be _wet ana fastened with two or three tacks ou the la -t , inside out. Put the upper on the lop of th.. last wrong side out ; slip ia the instep picot , and secure it with a tack driven through the upper-down into the last. Draw the upper down over the edge of the'tiole, and secure it in the proper position with a tack at the centre of the heel and at the toe and one at each side, driven through the uptir and sole and into the last. The sole and edge of the leather tips to be •Joined to it should be kept slightly wet while sew iug.- - One great difficulty with new beginniqs is to hold the shoe while sewing on the sole. Shoemaker uses a 'stirrup' for this purpose —a strip of leather about an inch wide made into a circle long enough to go under the foot and up over the knee, holding the last firmly 'doivn to the knee. A stirrup of mus lin would answer, and if you use wax ends, with bristles, you can scarce do without it ; but if you use the long needle, you do not need it. Around the sole as prepared is a little raised rim and in It Voles ready made.— With your awl you must re-open these, passing it on through the upper, and 'the trouble with the bristles is to get them to pass back and forth through the apperture. One soon learns it, but at first it is very dis heartening. With the needle you break oil a thread—which is single—of convenient length, then bring the outside end to the end left on the ball, measure down an equal length, break off, put the first end to the end on the ball, measure and break oft' au • other length. About three threads is as thick as you can use with a needle, and if you double it back and forth, the tviist in the thread will run contrary:wise. It will not make one even cord and will wear out in sewing ; lay the threads smoothly to gether twisting the string lightly, wax it, sharpen one end to fit the needle, and join the sole and upper with a 'back stitch' scam, making the long stitch on the outside.— When it is done, witli the hammer gently beat the seam to make it smooth; trim oft the surplus, if it is too wide; wet the sole thoroughly, mall out.the tacks,tiraw out the instep piece and last. Next, turn the shoe, put the last in and let it stay until It is dry, or nearly ; take it out, cut a bit of muslin to fit the sole • and paste it in When dry the shoe is ready to wear. J. S. O. Damao; Mears. • "Woo Ala Rooza WILLIA.IIB ?" is a question asked in Steele's "Fourteen Wet•ks in Chemistry,' which rises theae curious facts: • • • The truth that animal matter passes front the animal back to the vegetable, and frum the vegetable to the animal kingdom again; received a curious illustration not long since. FOr the purpose of erecttcg a suitable mon ument in memory of Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island, his private ;bury ing ground was searched for the graves of himself and wife. It was found that. every thing had passed into oblivion. The shape of the coins could only be traced by black line of carbonaceous matter. Tin. rusting hinges and nails, and a round wood en knot, alone remained in one grave ; while a single lock of braided hair was found in the other. Near the grave stood an apple tree. This bad sent down two main roots into the very presence or the * canned dead. The larger. root, pushing its way to the precise spot occupied by the skull of Roger Williams, - bad made a turn as if passing around it, and fUllowed the direction of the hackbone to the hips.— Here it dividetl into two branches, s , ntllng one along each leg to the heels, when both turned upward to the toes. One: or these 'roots formed a slight crook el die knee, which made the whole bear a striking re semblance to the human form. 'There were the graves, but their occupants' had disap peared ;the bones eveu,had vanished. There tood the thief—the guilty apple tree—einglit in the very act of robbery. • The spoliation was complete. The organic matter,_ the flesh, the bones of Roger Williams had passed into an apple tree_ The elements had been absorbed by the roots, traro,intitcd into woody fibre, whiCh could now be burned as fuel, or carved Into ornaments, and bloomed into fragrant bloPsionis, Olielt, delighted the eye of the ispiSer-by; and scattered the sweetest perteine of spring ; more than that—had been tonverted into luscioug fruit, which, from yoatto year, had been gathered and eaten. flow pe . rtinent, then, is the cmstion, "who ate Roger Wil Hams?" ILL BREK insG. —There is no. great, r breach of good 'canners, or rather no hotter evidence of ill-oreeding than that of Inter rupting:another in conversation while speaking, cy commencing a 'remark before soother has fully closed.
