ONE IfAPPY ItEUNION.
Christmas eve, 1T93, nnil bitterly cold.
It kail snowed all the day beforo and all
tho night, and had only held tip nliont
noon on tho day which was now nearlng
its close.
In those days Uie distance from Kew
York in the direction of what is now the
town of Fordham was (rn versed liystnge
coaches, drawn liy spanking four horse
teams, traveling by the old Boston post
road. On this Christmas eve the leaders
plunged and plowed their way through
the snow, suortins nnd emitting donds
ot steam from their nostrils.
After awhile the vehicle iiansed be
fore a wayside tavern in Winchester
county, bearing a swinging and anti
revolutionary sign, the presentment of
a scarlet clad and handsome cavalier,
nd the inscription, "llaninls of Clare
niont Arms." There were but two pas
sengers in the coach that night a tall
traveler in a slouched hat and shaggy
overcoat, and a little girl whom he car
ried in bis arms.
As the horses were baited and the
coachman and groom went in for a
"drop of something hot," the traveler
alighting turned quickly up a road lead
ing northward from the inn. The man
was good looking, though foreign und
sunburned of aspect. Vet he did not
seem a stranger to the place.
Uu through the snow clad lanes and
by tho white fences he went his way,
finally turning up a private walk through
the piled up drifts toward old Deacon
Marshall's homestead.
"Tls sweet to hear the honest watch
dog's bark, bay deep mouthed welcome
as wo draw near home" but this man
fervently prayed that no watchdog be
aroused by his noiseless approach to the
old home.
He saw the old farmhouse as he had so
often seen it in boyhood, with its red
walls and white capped roof, with the
candle light faintly shining through the
rims ot the window panes.
Occasionally a sigh so deep as to be
almost a sob burst from the man's
bosom. The child was bushed and con
tent in Its father's arms.
As he passed through the trim yard
gate, past the old familiar butternut
tree, he said to himself, "They will be
glad to see her and lore her; but oh.
Godl it's hard to part with her."
When lie reached the farmhouse door
he set the little one down on her feet in
the square, old fashioned porch.
"Now, baby, remember never to be
afraid to do what papa tells you to do.
You are going to see grandpa and grand
ma, and when your visit is out papa
will come and bring you lots of sweeties
and to) s. Now you must go right in
when they open the door, nnd papa will
go away for a little while."
The child clung to him for a moment
a terrible moment tohiin and then
stood bravely quiet as he gave three
rousing blows to tho old brats knocker
and then Mviftly tetreated Into the
shadow of the trees.
ITn BftW llin flnnr mwn Ami nn ..1.1
I white haired man with n candle in his
; hand look out, He saw the gleam ot
the fireside In the old home for the first
I time in many years, lie saw the child,
! fearless and confident ot welcome, enter.
I and then lie still, brave heart he saw
his mother, a tall, gentle faced old ma
tron with snow white hair, advance,
stoop and lift the child in her arms and
kiss it, as one who drinks after long
thirsting.
The door closed, and n few moments
later the man outside was in the return
coach for New York, on his way to be
lost umonirtUti unknown thousands of
1 the great city.
Ten iiiln'iles before this sceuo Deacon
Marshall and bis good wife sat before
the blaiiuu' Ore in the clean, snug old
fashioned kitchen, while the buy house
maid, a stout, rosy uutcn lass of eight'
een, plied her ovrning tasks. Tho ap
petizing Miiell ot browning griddle
rakes and fragrant tea filled the room,
The hitter winds howled outMde, en
hancing the blessed sense of home
warmth aud cotuforth.
"It's mighty bad weather. I hojie all
the ciillurer. will git Here tomorrow,
wife." said the deacon.
"All the children, Ezra" answered
the old lady in a tone of reproach, " ou
know one will not In here. I always
think of him in the holidays away out
yonder In A. 'Xico cr Texas among them
outlandish eople.
"Oh, Uzru, he was a wild boy aud a
headstrong, but there's more sorts ot sin
than one. uid you were worso tlmu he
when you drove tho boy out Into the
wide world twenty years ago twenty
years airo come New Year's eve."
Had the deacon lived in this Ago he
would have mug the "chestuuf bell,"
for he had heard sermons from his wife
on his sorely repented sin f nil many a
time and oft.
The best of wouu n v ill preach.
"1 have such a strange feeling about
me this minute. I feel as it my lioy was
right here by inc." sue went on, forget
ting that her "boy" was now a man of
thirty-live or more.
At this lnstiint three startling rui on
the knocker sounded through the old
house.
"It's that good for nothin Jake 11 tllen
waiting till this time ' night to fetch
them groceriM. IXrnt leave the lap
jaeks, Katrine; I II open the door.
And the deacon took up a candle aud
stalked Ibrough the parage to the front
door. He i pened it. What a strange
sight to see!
Against the dark background of night
and storm the figure of a cherub child,
a we tnald ot fire years, fair as a iarl,
with bright eager eyes of lieavenly blue,
and a soft fleecy mass of pal gold es
caping from her blue saUnhood and
falling over her white fur ooat.
She advanced fearlessly and piped out:
"I'm llaby Marshall, and papa's
bought jn to danroa. My mamma's
dead Ion time ago, and 1m' summer my
1 1aek fcr. "". "d baby
wsai bo uaiuoa.
Another moment and the grand
mother, with the thrilling try i.f a
woman's soul tu au answersHl prayer
iltod br gTanfctiilst w bar hurt.
OH, the dear' contact! vt is It real
the firm, warm, little hand she clasped,
the pressure o the smiling rosy lips?
"Where is papa? Oh, my dear, where
is papa?" sho cried, while the deacon
looked on as one raised from the dead,
and Katrine gazed on the new found
treasure and thought of the stories she
had read In Dutch folklore of the angel
ot the Chrlstmastlde.
"Papa dou,"cooedthe little one. "He
turn for, baby after 'while. Take dls,"
and searching the recesses ot her little
pockets she produced a letter,
The grandfather with shaking hands
and faltering tones read:

William K. MananALi.
A moment later an old man was
struggling through the snowdrifts to
ward the village as fast as his rheumatic

Christmas bells ringing mer the land!
Christmas sunshine glinting the far

In the churches music and song swelling
on on the clear, frosty air.
Unto us a son is born,
Unto ns a kins !i given,
Clirl.t, the Lord!
Old Mrs. Marshall always walked to
church Christmas morning, and as she
listened to the sweet tide of song her
head belit lowly down and a prayer
welled up from the poor old mother's
soul: "Lord, 1 have waited so long.
Let me see niv lioy's face again before 1
die!"
In that moment tho church clock
chimed 13 meridian.
In that moment, as she recalled after
ward, peace spread its white wings
above her, and an angel voice seemed to
whisper, "All is well." When she re
turned tliB family had assembled for the
Christmas dinner.
There was llube, who had a good
farm in the highlands Kube, the steady
going a broad shouldered, sturdy
Saxon, with his pretty, dark eyed wif.'.
dressed in a new black silk with a real
lace colt tr and cniTs; Marianne, the belle
of the family, and the youngest, a lass of
eighteen, blond, debonair and roguish,
with her good looking fiance horeriug
beside her, the sun of a well to do farmer
in the vicinity, whose daughter Marianne
had jns. beeu visiting for a few days.
There, too, was Alfred, the doctor, a
portly, well meaning man, and a little
ot n dandy In hi dress, as became a
physician and bauhelor popular among
the Invalid ladies of Westchester.
The deacon trudged in from hid own
meeting house, where minister and dea
con had been holding a private session
of two hours over the backsliding of
some iioor soul predoomed according to
their belief to damnation. There m a
generul handshaking of father and kiss
ing of mother. The deacon did not le
lieve in kissing or indulging in the
profane luxury of a smile on the Sab
bath day, but Christmas, even accord
ing to his creed, was made for rejoicing.
Among all the family that day a
queen had been enthroned the waif
who had anivedtlie night liefore. A
big box had come for her by Sam Dolan,
the carrier, aud its contents showed that
the wild Texan rover bad not spared
expense on his little daughter. Qay in
blue silk and lace and ribbons, the little
thing tossed her ur!s and beamed de

years of waiting and weariness as she
cradled the Utile one's head ou her
bf east and brusued her pale face against
the fluffy, silken hair. Just as every
body grew keenly hungry Katrine rang
forth a welcome peal from the dinner
bell.
After the dejcoif s grace what a chorus
of praises .went up! Was there ever suph

WhooTcr made such clear jelly? And

make excuse, and leaving the room to

mother advanced, trembling and uncer

"Mother! oh, mother!" he said with a
hoarse sob in his voice.
With such a cry as only n mother
could understand, the poor, fragile crea

bosom of the man before her her lost
child of so many years. What prayers
what silent tears, what longing ot heart
had drained his mother's life of strength

danger and to this end coujuied all

from the elements and rrom all tilings
In nature, animate and inanimate, a vow
under no ciiotini.tances to do him harm.
Thus protected Baldnr, as of yore, led
the chase and courted danger in protean
form, giving himself as target for the
other gods' arrows, liattleaxes and
other weapons, who, believing that, do
what they would, they could do him no
hurt, thus sorted with his valor, deem
ing it.au honor jul.t to Baldur.
Loki, the detractor of tbe gods and
the author of all their mUfortniie., an
gered that no harm could twfall Baldnr,
and filled with envy and jealousy at Ihe
tribute thus luld to him by the other
gods, resorted to strategy to find some
way to work him evil. Assumiug the
disguise of a woman, he sought the
abode of Frigga, ami iwked her if she
knew how the go-Is were employed.
