I think l. do'" cried ! his wife. "Why, the cards were order ed when it happened, and 1 didn't know whether 1 could have your name twken out and Dick's inserted, in case 1 changed my mind.” 'In case I changed my min<\, you mean. dear. Strange that I never sus pected how much poor Dora cared for me until that day." "I’m sure she had concealed it very well—the way she ran after Dick, as if he ever had eyes for anybody but no?! He never told his love, but a wo man's intuition was—” "A synonym of vanity, dear. Of course, I couldn't help knowing that she cared for me when I met her in the boarding house parlor, with her eyes full of tears, on the very morning after you had told Marie, her dearest 1 friend, that we were to be married in a month." "Humph, that girl would cry about j anything; I've known her to cry when 1 the villain in the play was killed—as if j a villain could expect anything else in | the last act. But as soon as I saw Dick ; that morning I knew that he knew it. Why. his necktie had slipped around under one ear and his voice, as he | wished me a happy New Year, was so sad, that I felt guilty, though my con science told me that I had not eneour- j aged him.” "You’ve forgotten how you used to praise the shape of his head.” “As if that meant anything! A girl only praises the shape of a man's head when she can't find anything else to flatter him about. It—it means no more than it does when she tells a small man that he resembles Napoleon. But when 1 remembered that you had j once gone down on the floor in your new trousers to pick up Dora’s hand kerchief I knew that 1 had been cruelly deceived. So when you reproached me about Dirk, I—” "I remember how badly I felt when she replied to my New Year’s greet ing with the remark that happiness for her was over forever. And before 1 could comfort her Miss Marie came in and 1 could only go sadly away without telling her that I should al ways be a brother to her.” "And poor Di. k. I asked him if there was anything i could do for him; he replied; 'Yes,' but just then the maid came in with a note for him, and he ij^id lie must {o at once—I think he wished to be i lone with his sorrow. Then you can > in. and, instead of sharing my pit for him, you accused me of flirting \ ith him!” "I—er—don't remember that. But wasn't it odd that before I left you for ever, Miss Marie should come in and tell us that Dora and Diek were en gaged! I've often wondered how it happened that they decided to console each other.” "And so have T. Why, here is Marie now—perhaps she can explain. Sit down, Marie, do. Tom and I are just going over old times. Do you remem ber last New Year’s day, and—” "indeed I do. I've just been to see Dora, and she was talking about it. She and Dick quarreled last New Year’s Eve about the date of their marriage, and almost parted forever. "SHE AND DICK QUARRELED.” They think you both must have guess ed it. I remember that Tom was in the parlor with Dora when I ran in on New Year’s morning to tell her of your engagement. She had been on the point of asking him to help her to make up with Dick. And when she toid me about it, 1 wrote him a note telling him that I believed she would forgive him i? he came at once. That note found him at your house, Irene, where he had gone to ask your aid as peacemaker. Odd, wasn't it?” -Reasonable ~/~ayingj. The new leaf that very soldoru gets turned over is the one in the diary. Borne men claim that they see the old year out and the new one in by getting so drunk that they can’t see anything. By New Year the silver plating wears off many a Christmas present. A good beginning 1s naif the battle except in the case of keeping a diary. The new date is as hard to remem ber as the new leaf. Even thougn the arctic explorer never discovers the north pole he de serves credit, for he always keeps a diary.

I should say I am, Sea those?” And he drew out of his over coat pocket a great bundle of state ments of accounts. “Ha! ha!” laughed Green, “you will make Christmas present to your wife, will you. without counting the cost first?” The lines around Brown's eyes deepened and his mouth drooped sad ly. “No,” he said, "that's not it.

A Happy JVctv \Jear. A happy New Year!" How many people realize the meaning of the words as they go about with this familiar greeting upon their lips? "I wish you a happy New Year!" Does it not seem that the wish carries a blessing with it? And I believe it does when spoken by friends whose words are always true and sincere. For the benefit of those thoughtless ones who never read between the lines, let us analyze this significant greeting In the first place we wish our friends happiness, and the next question which naturally suggests itself is. what con stitutes happiness? A little friend of mine tells me that it is to eat all the candy he wants and not to 20 to bed until he wants to do so. Another friend of more mature years says that she would be perfectly happy if she had all the money she wanted to spend as she liked. Another desires fame, another social position. And so we might go on asking and finding out that almost every one has a different definition for happiness. If the young lad were allowed to follow his own sweet will and surfeit himself with sweets and late hours, I think the result would be anything but happy. As for wealth, who can blame anyone for wishing for all that one cares to spend, and especially a wom an to whom a separate income is the exception rather than the rule, it is the spending of it which decides the happiness or unhappiness of the possessor. I do not believe that any one was ever really happy who used wealth merely to gratify selfish am bitions. Fame, too, is a good thing to pos sess, but how many who have gained this high pinnacle will tell you that it brings happiness Social position is also something after which there is much striving. Yet when the coveted place is reached it is so often found to be barren, and happiness has no resting place there. Social position brings heavy responsibilities with it, and social duties are hard and labori ous without the happy results that follow labor in more worthy causes. It seems, then, that there must he some special way to happiness not easily found. There is, but it is easy enough to be seen by all who care to follow its winding way. Wiser heads than mine found out long ago that only in trying to make others happy is teal happiness ever gained for oueself. ' So in wishing our friends a happy I;ew Year, we really obligate ourselves to do ail that we can to make the wish com* true; ami for this reason the words should j/<*ver he spoken idly, or used as a fa-tv matter of form. On the other haYo!, to he sincere in the greeting and to do what the words Im ply, is certain to bring happiness to all. And now. let us go on to the next word in th*' analysis “new." Everybody likes new things, un less an exception may be made to the so-called “new woman." New gowns, new bonnets, new personal be longings of all sorts appeal especially to women. While "clothes do not make the person," every one has learned that appearance In this world goes a long way toward success. I'nder the Inspiration of knowing that one is well-dressed often one lias done his best and the key note of success has been touched. It is human nature that womankind should love pretty new dresses, new bonnets and dainty surrounding,, so let no one accuse her of vanity for desiring them. New ideas are sought after by the philosopher; new conditions by the scientist; new inventions by the in ventor. Editors eagerly examine new matter; and that which is truly origin al or opens a new Held of thought is never found "unavailable" no matter how poorly it rmy be written. There is a constant bunt going on for something new to further stimu late the energies, ambitions and de sires of the world’s people; and never was this craving so apparent as now when we are closing the nineteenth century. Everyone seems to fee] that we are on the verge of a now era which in spite of the inventions of the past is to be the most wonder produc ing period in the world’s progress. If the inhabitants of Mars continue to tdgnal us. as has been stated, who knows but what some shrewd, enter prising Yankee will put on his think ing cap, build a flying machine that will overcome all atmospheric con ditions and go sailing over to the planet one of these coming days? Perhaps the North Polo will be dis covered in the same way, although why so many people will risk life and property to find a spot that is almost certain to contain nothing that will sustain life or hope, can only lie laid to their insatiate greed for something new. It is to be hoped, however, that while these greater things are going on, some one may invent an automatic servant that will get up in the morn ing without being called, never let the flres go out, wash our best china with out breaking it, and, from the ve*r nature of the invention, cannot "lallc back" when we happen to go into the kitchen and scold a little—Household Realm. The Innual Greeting. "A Happy New Year to you!” This is the greeting which will be heard on every side as we cross the thres hold of the new year. It has become a custom to repeat it. In many cases it has little meaning, and is nothing more than an empty compliment or an idle wish. How much do you mean by it? It is very easy to repeat the form ula. It is a very simple matter to buy a New Year's card and enclose it in an envelope. Hut when you send this greeting, or speak it. do you regard it as a pledge or promise that you will do nothing to make the recipient of it unhappy, and that you will do all in your power to relieve his anxieties and bring gladness to his heart?— Baptist Union. Crownul evermore in endless light she greets The New Year's dawn. While we, with heads bowed low and dull heartbeats, Live sadly on. Visions too grandly bright for mortal gaze, To her unfold Blossoms each noble deed of earthly days, In beauty’s mold. The glory of our Lord her eyes have seen. With undimmed sight, Kate in His presence dear, she dwells serene And knows no night. She clasps the hands of loved ones waiting there On Heaven's shore. With them she treads those streets so wondrous fair, in rapture o'er. in giad surprise, joyous and pure and free, Her soul so blest. Solves the deep mystery of eternity And perfect rest. —Isabel L. lioardman, in N. Y. Ob server. Merely an Official Form.
