She was very pretty as she sat in her little black velvet toque, withitfe darling plume of cardinal red and the wiuered "ribbon j -bow at ; her throat-rjineUy with the! bloom and freshness of eighteen. She was dark with large hazel eyes, almond-shap ed and long flashed, a clear, rosy blV.oinon either cheek, and wavy dark hair hanging in silken fringe over her broad, low forehead. “Mont—Court—Station!? bawled the brakeman, putting in a snow- powdered furcap, and withdrawing it asrain as quickly as if he had been a magnified edition of the Jack-in- the-box wli-ich children much rejoice it in holiday time.- And Bertha Hooper knew that she had reached icr destination. Stiff and cramped from the length if time in which she had been sit ting in one position, she rose up, with a little steel clasped traveling bag in one hand and a dainty silk umbrella in the other, and made her way to the door. _ All she could see. when she step ped out upon the wet and slippery plat-term was a blcrof driving snow through which the lights of the soli Mrs. Bon. tar,' little, country depot gleamed fitfully; but the next instant some thing flashed athwart her vision like a friendly red eye—and beneath the reflector over the station door she saw a tall, fine looking young man, in a fur trimmed overccat, a sealskin cap set jauntily on one side of a crop of chestnut curls, and a red lighted lantern swinging from his left hand, as he stood straining his eyes into the stormy darkness, as if to catch sight of some familiar face in the little erowd. “Cousin Zebedee!” cried Bertha, alond, and she made one spring into the arms of this blonde-whiskered young giant. For had not she and Zeliedee played dominoes and fox- and-geese together in the days when she wore blue ribbon sashes, and his hair was a closely shorn mat of car roty red? “Oh, Cousin Zeliedee! I’m so glad to see you; and I hadn’t Job Mallows was honest, indus trious and generous—perhaps too generous for his own good; for,some way, he never seemed to prosper.

The next morning—Christmas Day, all snowed up into glorious drifts everywhere—Mr. Harcourt drove over to the Higgins farm house. The young lady had drop ped a fur glove on the platform, and Mr. Harcourt felt it his duty to re store it to her. And, moreover— here Mr. Charley Harcourt hesita ted a little—he hoped Miss Hooper would excuse him for being so stu pid as to allow her to fancy him her cousin. “I ought to have explained soon er,” said he. “No, you ought not,” said Bertha. “The fault was all mine.” “I don’t recognize a fault any where,” said he. “And if I am par doned ” “Of course you are!” said Bertha, rosier and prettier than ever. “In that case I am commissioned by my mother to ask your aunt’s permission to take you over to help us finish dressing the church in time for morning service. My horse is waiting.” “May I go, Aunt Almira?” said Bertha with sparkling eyea “Of course you may,” said Aunt Almira. And so poor Zebedee was left out in the cold. What was the end of it all? There is but one sequel to stories like this when youth and bright eyes and human hearts are concerned. The next Christmas Eve Bertha Hooper and Charley Harcourt were mar ried. But the bridegroom persists in declaring that Bertha did the firs t of the love-making. And Bertha only laughs. Too Old to Work. An Insane Dodge entered a crim inal lawyer’s office. “Good morning, old pard.” The lawyer looked puzzled. “You don’t seem to remember me - ” „ “Your features are a little famil iar,” said the lawyer, “but I can’t just place them.” “Pshaw! Tve helped you through many a case. Fm—” “Ah, yes, now I recognize yon. Well, how have you been V “Hard up since I left you.

The forthcoming report of the Illinois department of agriculture shows that the area of the growing crop of winter wheat in Illinois is 2,3Hi,000 acres, or * decrease of 40-5,- 000 acres from the previous seeding.
