I've been down to tho city, nn I've seen the Meclrlc lights,
The twenty-story bulletin's nn' the other stunnln Bights;

An' nil the place a-lookln' like a fairyland complete.
But I'd rather sco the big trees Hint's a-growln' up to home,
An' watch the stars a-twliillln' In the blue an' lofty dome;
An' I'd rather hear the wind that goes a-slngln' past the door
Than the trafflc of tbe city, with Its bustle an' its ronr.

The little wnrui arms were mound
Ids neck, mid the I; Us wns upon his
cheek. The child waited a moment as
though for it kiss In return, but sho
did not get It, and she slipped down
nud went with her mother to the little
dark room where Uufus Orote had
given up to their use Ids own hard,
poor bed.
For himself tho host had planned to
spread n blanket uihui tbe Itoor In the
living room. Ue bad slept Jhcro be
fore, nnd he could sleep there ngalii.
The soil of Uufus (Iroto's heait was
like the soil of other hearts. A seed
once forced through the crust would
find root there either good or evil.
In all his uiiiuhood's life so warm n
thing ns that childish kiss had not
touched his cheek, Ue did not think
I of It so much until he wus alone In
liie ueuso iinrkucss; mm then when ho
could beo nothing else, he could sro
that sunny face, nud the musical chir
rup touuded again lu his earn. At
first ho would have been glad to lo
llove that the child's mother had In
Btructcd her In this, but when ho look,
cd over nil tho circumstances, bo knew
It could not have been; nnd before ho
slept ho wns glad the child had como
to him of hor owu swoot Impulse,
Orote did not sleep so soundly ns wns
his wont. Ho dreamed, nnd In his
dreams ho snw n cherub, nnd felt cher
ubic arms about his neck, with klss
upon his cheek. And ho snld to him
self lu his drenms:
"Surely, I ennuot bo such nn ogro
If these sweet being enn lovo me."
In tho morning Uufus Oroto wns
up very enrly. Ho hnd thought tho
night before that ho hnd brend nnd
cheese enough for orenkfnst; but nfter
the night's dream ho took now
thoughts. Without exactly compre
hending the feeling, the sense of utter
loneliness mid Fclllshuess hnd glvin
place to a warmer senso of compnnlon
ship nnd fraternity. lie put his hand
to tho cheek whero tho Impress of the
child's kiss hnd fallen, nnd n new res
olutlon enmo to bis mind. Ho went out
lo a neighboring street corner nnd par
chnsed tea and sugar nnd butter, nnd
new warm breakfast rolls, and a small
can of milk.
He hnd Just deposited these nrtlclcs
upon tho tnble when Mrs. Sanford
inude her nppenrnuce.
"Oood-mornlng, Undo Uufus."
Hnd tho host caught that sound
when ho first arose It would hnve
startled him; but It fell very softly
upon his ears now. He had been ax
crclslng, nnd earned tho salute.
"Good morning, Mnry," returned
Uufus; nnd so odd was It, that the
very tones of his own voice surprised
him.
"What can I do for you this morn
ing, uncle? Mny I get your break
fast for you?"
"I will build n fire," snld the man,
"nnd then If you please, you may make
a cup of tea."
Tho II ro was built, and then he
showed where hH dlsbos were.
Mnry Sanford was nn accomplished
housekeeper, nnd sho could nccommo
date herself to circumstances very nar
row. Whllo she wns busy n rny of
ficsh sunshine burst Into the room,
lighting up tho dingy wnll, nud mak

Flora, bright, Joyous nnd Jubilant,

of her waking from refreshing sleep.
Without n word only n ripple of glad
ness dropping from her lips sho went
to where tho old man had Just sat
down In the comer, nud crept up again
Into his Inp.
"I enn't rench your cheek, uncle,"
she Inugbed, "without getting up you
are so big mid I mu so little."
And then she kissed him us silo
had done the night before; but not ns
on the night before did Uufus Grote.
With n movement almost spasmodic
so strange wns It for htm ho drew
the child back to him, mid Imprinted
a hearty kiss upon her round cheek.
And the words "God bless you, lit
tle one!" fell from his lips before ho
knew It.
Verily the crust wns broken. Hut
hnd any good seed fallen upon the
heart?
What an odd scene for tho miser's
homo! A really good breakfast a
table tastefully laid the fumes from
the teapot fresh and fragrant mid
the surroundings cheerful.
After breakfast Uufus Oroto wns
forced to go nwny on business. And
on that day be concluded arrangements
for tho leasing of a building which
was to return him ten thousand dol
lars a year; nnd be hud meant when
the business wns done, that he would
bo poorer than ever, mid live on less
than heretofore, so tbnt he might lay
up more. On this same day one of
Ids houses wns vacated up town a
dwelling on ono of the broad streets
where the green trees grow. Ho saw
his agent mid ordered him to let tho
house as ipilckly ns possible.
That evening, wlilio .nrs. Sanford
was out, Flora came to Uufus Gtoto's
side, mill looked earnestly up Into bis
face.
"Uncle." she siild, with tpinlnt seri
ousness, "don't you want mo to get
up Into your lap?"
"Why do you ask that?" demanded
the old man.
"Mmnmu said I mustn't. She said
you wouldn't llko It."
"What umdo her think I shouldn't
like It?"
"Hecauso sho snld you wasn't happy;
nnd she cried when sho said tha't her
little girl mustn't make her Uncle
Uufus dislike her."
"And whnt did you sny to tbnt?"

"I told mnnunn that I would put my
