AN OLP-TPrE CHR1ST3LVS. Victoria Houghton, ai sho turned over her eiubroiderv silks in quest of a desir ed shade, exclaimed. "Well. 1 begin to think Christmas is about used up!" "Why, Vie, what a wicked thing to say'." and lier sister Bell stopped, quite, startled, in the centre of the room. "Not the day itself or the event it commemorates, of course, so don't look so frightened, Hell. 1 mean our man ner of celebrating it. Wo work for weeks preparing Kir the grand holiday, and when it comes it always falls below our expectations. Stockings and Christ mas trees have lost their charms, and I think that after wo have cea.-ed to be children tho 2oth of Deoember is a dis uppointingday." "Hut what could we do?" asked Hell. "I would like to sec the real old Christ mas customs revived the wassail bowl, the boar's head, and the waits singing from door to door. Then the holidays were merry in deed and name.;" and Victoria's eyes sparkled. "Not a bad idea, my Early English maiden." laughed a hearty voice, and both girls turned to welcome a cheery faced old gentleman with toft, snowy hair. "I did not know, grandpa, that anv one was listening," said Victoria, with u blush. "Hut I think with you, my dear, that familiarity lias made.' balls and sugar plums a tritle 'ilat. stale, and unprofit able.' Perhaps, with your assistance, we can make a change this year, and even in this nineteenth century have a sort of old-time Christmas at Hollywood." "Oh, that will bo charming!" cried Victoria, beginning at once to ransack the l'brary for any book that might give suggestions. Hollywood was a delightful old man sion not manv miles from Now York, and in days gone by had sheltered a myriad happy boys and girls, but one by one tho birds had flown from the home nest, until oidy father and mother Houghton and tho youngest son remain ed beneath the quaint gablo roof; and soon now Archie, this last child, was to say farewell, and go to seek his fortune in far-away Japan. Hut Christinas was a time of reunion, when children and grandchildren camo to spend the happv, holy season with "tho old folks at home," and was tho "red-letter day" of tho wholo year in tho history of Holly wood. This year tha day before Christ nuts was tho coldest of tho season, but not ono was missing from tho bevy of couis- ins that gathered about dusk in tho Grand Central Depot, from Uiek Hart- Jett, a young collegian, down to baby Ellis, crowing and capering in his nurse s arms. J hero wore eight Hough ton's, fjvo Hartlett's, three Ellises, and ono Hastings, who with parents and :it tendants trooped gaily into tho warm car, and were whirled away to tho little station nearest to Hollywood. An nmnihim lmrli ic in wnitlnn- -mil well tucked un in furs, all are packed in. and dash off up tho winding road to tho old homestead, from which many lights aro twinkling a welcome, whilo the boys shout at the top of their lusty young lungs A iwerry uiiristmas and a Happy Now Year." Victoria, assisted by grandpa and Hell, nas done nor worn wen. from tno mo ment of their their arrival the new com ers meet with a series of surprises. Scarcely are greetings exchanged and wraps laid away before a loud-voiced bell summons them to tho dining-room, The long table seems fairly groaning be neath its weight of good cheer, every thing being set on together, :i.s in in the simple old days, and there aro several dishes which none of them has over seen or tasted. Hoforo grandpa stands a tureen of plum porridge, whilo grandma's end of tho board is adorned with with an enor mous "Christmas pye," shaped like a 1 I'll .1 - - ;i- manger, aim mien wiin a composition oi cows' tongues, geese eggs, sugar, rais ins, lemon and orange peel, according to a very ancient and famous recipe. Hut what plcaso tho children most are tho little ) Mr-doughs, or baby cakes quaint little images made of paste and baked a lino light brown; and they have great sport over tlieso old-timo Clirist- in.-is dolls. "Where aro tho boys?" asks Gladys Ellis, suddenly missing her brothers and boy cousins. Hut at that moment tho shrill notes of a life aro heard, the door is thrown open, and in conio tho lads in procession, led by Dick, bearing a platter on which rests tho crown of tho Christmas feast, namely, the boar's head (although it bears a striking resemblance to a fat pig), decked with ribbons and garlands, a lemon in its mouth, and rosemary in its cars. This with great ceremony they set upon tho table, singing meanwhile: .'The Boar's head la hand brins I, With garluutU ;.iy anil rosemary. I pray you nil sync merrily, (Jul itu in roMi'i'Wt.'." This is received with great applause, and amidst tho clapping of hands, tho boys tako their seats at tho bounteous board. Tho Christmas-ovo supper was cnUm with jokes and laughter and fun, and afterward they all assembled around tho glorious wood lire. Then grandpa had his surprise. His face was a study when, as Mrs. Hast ings struck a few chords on the piano, there entered littlo Dolly Houghton and Max Ellis dressed like a" lady and gentle man of the uneien regime,' in ruff and farthingale, three-cornered hat and high heeled shoes. Tlioy took their places on tfio polished lloor, .saluted their hosts, and with amusing dignity coinmeii'.vd tiio lirst stately stops of tho minuet dc la cour. It was indeed a charming picture, and the dainty ltlo pair went through tho difficult 'daneo with perfect accuracy. Such high steps and glissades, such deep courtesies and courtly bows, such rev erence on tho part of tho gentleman, and Hucli gentle condescension from tho littlo lady! How deftly Max hopped on one foot and clapM'd'hls wooden heels to gether, and how eomiottUhly weo Dolly tossed her pretty golden head and pivo her tiny white liand to her iirtner! until at length they ended with tho Imlmtre royule, joining liandii and making a pro found reveriineu to tho company. "Von precious darling!" cried grand ma, nulling to embrace thoin; and uiU dimly divmuid if their dignity, thu llttlu datie4irs wurti pilled round to lo kUacd wul admired, uml were toon romping u A Sort Thine Two old friends met on a trnin between Dallas and Fort Worth. After tho usual greeting ono of them asked : "Isn't Sam Sweedlepipcs living in Dallas?" "Is he a glazier?'' "Yes, he is a painter and glnxier." "He is getting rich fast." "Getting rich fast, is he? Running a monto bank, I suppose." "So, lie lias got abetter thing than that." "City olllcial?" "Xo; lie belongs to n fire compnny, nnu tvhen a fire breaks out ho runs along and wakes up tho people with a stick." "I don't sea hov thero is nny money to be mndo in that." "Ho wakes tho people up by tapping at their windows with a stick, and he innn nges to break nil the pnnes of glass within half a milo of tho fire, and tho next day hi is called on to put that in again at GO cents a piece.

Kx-Mnyor Newton, of Des Moines, la., Is debcrvedly popular in tho city over whoso destines ho presided, by reason of tho many good deeds and tho unostentatious acts o chnrity which ho is constantly doing. Suc cessful as a politician, ho has alsJo recently been playing tho part of a good Samaritan with u success equal to his triumphs in poll tics. The fainting traveler by tho wayside, whom ho hns raised lip and refreshed by good counsel in tho last instance, is Mr. Gcorgo A, Crandale, tho manager for Obcrne, Hosick it Co., Second 'and Walnut streets. Mr. Crnndnle, who naturally feels under many obligations to tho Kx-Mayor tells ns follows how ho camo into such a wretched plight as to need help and how it was cheerfully given: "I havo novcr had an ache or pain of rheumatism," ho said, "since I used Athlo phoros, and tho medicine cost mo only 511 If any ono had guaranteed to euro me I would willingly havo paid him $"(), yes 5100. My rheumatism wasinlhunmntory, mostly in my nnkles, but a littlo in tho wrist. I could niaungo to hobble around by tho uso of canes, but lelt as if I were walking on tho bare bones, or in other words as if my fectwero off and I was walk ing on tho stumps. Tho pain wns terrible to bear, yet I managed to bo about and to attend to my businchs. "Ono day, during thu time I wns suffering so much, I hobbled to tho Court Houso to look after some matter. As I wnsstruggle ing to get up tho steps I met ex-Mayor Newton, who asked mo what tho troublo was. I told him that it was rheumatism, whereupon ho advised mo to got a bottlo of Athlophorous. I did not get it then, ii3 I had no faith in patent medicines and did not want to tako any. A short time after this I wroto to an old friend. Charles 1'. Griflin, of Stuart, to inquire wnnt mid cured him. l knew that he hud boen con II nod to his bed with rheumatism of tho worst kind. Hfs answer was: 'Get Athlophoros. That is what cured nie.' I then got some, but really had no faith in its curing ine. I begun to get relic! from it in twenty-fmir hours. I continued taking it until I hud used three dollars worth, when my rheumatism, both the pain aud tho swelling, was gone, and I havo not hud nny return since. That is now.ovcr a year ii go." J'.x-.Mayor Newton based his recommcn. dntioit ot Athlophoros to Mr. C'randalo upon t no very romarkahlo euro iljiiulcllect ed in tho en so of his ife. That lady thus tells all about it: "I havo been comparatively freo from rheumatism for tho past ypar and a linlf. Previous to that I had been a gieat sufferer for yearn and had resorted to many reme dies, but nothing would do vtiint Athlo- phoros iliu lor me. j iiavo nail a low. twinues oi late, nut 1 attrinuta tiiat to my- bell and not to tho medicine,' as I havo not been so careful as I should havo been. Athlophoros took the stiffness out o! tho joints o! my fingers nnd guvo me tho uho of mv hands, in which I hud ho long had trou ble. I have recommended it In many eases and in every iimtnnco that I know of the results lutvu been very satisfactory. I do not liositute hi the least In recommending it most heurtlly to every rheumatic suf ferer."
