a ee NE ST AEE ES. A THE EVENING STAR. | PRUDY'S POCKET DRESS, A Story for Little Girls. BY THE AUTHOR OF “LITTLE PRUDY BOOKA.” Shall I tell you something about Prady! I 2m not talking to you er boys and girls, who ean cipher in ractic as; I mean you hittle dar- liogs, in the “Second Reader.” Well, when Prady was “a little bit o° girl,” three years old, she was & queer little thing, ze fat that when she tried torun it pat her all out of breath. Her mother always looked as sober as she covld when Prady did anything funny, and said, “Her tather laughs, and things she is very cupping.” AD, well, | know of some- tbody else who thought Prndy was cunuing, and that was Prudy’s mother! The littleone wanted a pocket very mach. Her mother promised it “by and by,” but Prudy said, “Bimeby is agreat long while, ean’t I bayeit now!” Her mothersaid nothing, bat thought»be would make hera pretty red dress for a Cri. tmas present, and put & pock- et in it. Did you ever think how kind mothers are to their children? Mr. Parlin sat up ull twelve o'clock one nightte fluish Pradysdreas. S2¢ bad a beadiche next day, but she told ner hus- band it was wor! one headache to see Prady so happy. There! 1 wish vou could bave seen her when she sinck both her little hands into that pocket the first time! “Ob dear, dear!’ said she, ‘what shail I do, lare eogind! Itisn’t belirveemake pocket; it | bas & hote in it, lize Susy’s.” Then she kissed her mother and laughed. “1 knew Ubristmas was a eoming to see me, But l didn’t know l’se ago. n’ to have a pocket dress! Did Santa Claw carry itto me! Where Goes Santa Claw live! I s’suppose he know Disseif. Oh, love Santa Claw @ whole heart- full” Then Prudy tried todance, and you must know she was as graceful as & little bear. «1 wieh I conid jump clear up to the sky of this room,’ suiashe. “Oh, I areso glad! Now, ‘what shall I putinto my pocket!” Prudy hunted fora good while, and at Iast found a pinestick, which she putin; then she wanted to go to walk with Susy. «I won't come crying in,” said she; “I want the folks that live down street tosee My povk- et dress,” Her father laughed, and said, «1 think mother Must let you go; won't you be naughty!” “No, not one bitin this world! I'll be just as good asa lady! mayn't 1 go down to Aunt Nabby’s? I baven’t been there since I was born, and I wasn’t there before I was born, So Mrs. Partin let the children goto walk, and told Susy not to let go Prudy’s hand. When they came back, Prudy was happier than ever. Aunt Nabby had given her a +-bush of raisins to pat in her pocket, and she had thonght of azreat many other things, she coald | tock in, such as a string of battons, @ side- comb «doughnut, a dito! mutton tallow, her tin dipper, and her “pickety slate-pencil.” it was a glorious Caristmas day for Prady. The next morning she awoke very early, say- dug, “Ob‘ I've gota pocket-dress, Susy!” Then sne tried to wake Susy, by poking her elbows | into her sides, bat Sasy groaned out, “Don't.”* «Don't you bear me! I've got a pocket dress, eaid Prody: and with that she twisted Su-y’s nose as if it had been arag. Poor Susy becan tocry. «Now, Prady, I think you're real mean.” Little Prudy stood upright, and plantingone | foot firmly on Nusy’s stomach, said sweetiy, “Susy, 8 toh don’t speak pleasant to your litle ajeter. guess you didn’t wake up goody!” Poor Suey felt cross. «You’ye waked me all up and most broke my nore,” said she, “but I know one thing, a you ain’t going to wear your red dress, to-day.” «Yee I are,’ returned Prady, “you don't know. Now you’ve been and telled a story, dusy Parlin, for I are a goin’ to wear it.” But Susy wasright' Mrs. Parlinsaid Prody Must wear her old blue dress, for the red one ‘Was too nice for every day Prudy cried. ‘Ob dear,” said she, “then I cant be happy, if yon don’t let me wear my Pocket dress no more!’ Then her mother told her that she might look a@t ber gress every day, and might keep her Baudkerchic? in it,and ever so many things. So Prudy dried her eyes, and every day aha | went up stairs to put her hands into her pock- et-dress, and stood and talkedtoit. Whenshe Went up siairs she would say, “Good bye, mamms, good bye, Susy, l’ma goin’ ap to see my red pocket. dres There! I think I've told yom enough about Prudy this time. Good bye.—Little Pilgrim. @7 A man in Fairfield. Ohio, stole $15 in reenbacks. By statute in that Scate, thesteal- € of $35 constitutes grand larceny, whick is @ penitentiary offense.
