Regina’s eyes were too intent on her miscion to see that a thin ew of smoke was twisting from the chim ney of the bun~alow that rambled in the lot beyond the vacant one, Ox N Regina drew near the coveted trec -and her heart expanded lovingly. “What a llttle beauty!” she ex- claimed half aloud. The little tree was of special orizin and stood not much higher tban Re gina. Over its branches a vell of smoke seemed to linger. After a mo- | ment spent in admiration, the girl put | down her big tub and began to clear away the light fall of snow from about the roots of the tree. Her cheeks were gloriously red and the sparkle in her eyes rivaled the day itself. When the snow was cleared Regina | swung the great ax into the frozen | earth. The ground scarcely responded | to her strength. She swung again. “Hey! What are you doing to um ! tree!” | Regina dropped her ax and gazed | in the direction of the deep, gruf voice. A man was standing on the veranda of the bungalow. Regina picked up her ax and with dignity swung it again. “I say thcre, ycu—that tree be- longs to me!” The man was coming toward her. Regina stopped and turned. “ThH’ is a vacant lot,” ghe called out with asperity, The approaching male whistled. ! speed quickencd.

In selecting toys for the children’s Christmas, remember hey should be such as to suzgest acticn, and bring the Imagination into play, as it is| the child who plays, not the toy, and | Imagination is the soul of the play. The best toys are those which sct the mind to work, and give the little brain scope for expencion. This is cne of the strengest recoramendations for the simpler t The wonderful 1iechanical toys sold in the shops are complete in themsclves, and le child nothing to do but to wind them up and start them going. In this case, it is the toy that plays, not the rhild.
