"Since then." the went on, after a moment's pause, "I have never kept Christmas at all; I couldn't." Mis. Ancrum, the caller, sympathized, albeit she thought her hostess morbid and "But still the religious part of Christmas day?" she ventured. Mrs. Dare shook her head. "We had been to church In the morning," she brokenly.

"No Christmas day has nothing but painful memories for me." Miss Ancrum spoke a few kindly words, then passed on to other things. Just before takfng her leave she ventured, half timidly: "1 wonder if I could ask you to help me on Christmas day?

Heneath it was Mis Ella Langley, whom she hated with bitter, enduring hatred. Miss Langley caught her look and sailed past with a toss of the beflow ered hat, nnd Milly abruptly turned choking back the tears and went tc the post office. How she hated Ella Langley! Anc bow she hated her own father who hao made this indignity possible! She hated the whole world, and the elementt reemed In sympathy with her, for tut clouds that had been gathering eud denly broke, and a drenching rair sluiced down, flooding gutters and rac ing muddily into hollow.

"It's goin' to rain harder "I don't care," said Millie. Then she was compelled to step aside, fcr a be draggled young woman rushed in fot shelter. It was Miss Langley. And the hat! It bad suddenly become a pulpy mass, and the colors had run down, streaking Miss Langley's face like that of an Indian. Miss Langley took off the limp ruin and seating herself on a box contemplated it bitterly and burst into tears.

It was too much for Millie. She ap proached and sat beside her enemy. "Don't cry," she said. "Why, it can be fixed. Just look here all you'll have to do will be to iron out the brim again, and when the roses are dry they'll be purtler than ever they'll be sorter pinky, lots prettier than red ones." "Do you really think so?" asked Mise Langley hopefully.

Millie strained her conscience to the limit. "Of course it she said. "Tell dead when picked up. Highest Market Prices for Butter and Egjs. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Harpy New Year.
