I “Tulips?” slid repeated, smiling. “Why, tulips are not Hue yet. You I should have red roses, poinsettlas, and holly nt Christmas time ” “Yes’tn, I know," said the one carrying the basket of wax flowers, “but we don't know how to'make anything but tulips. They are nil red. though, uml Just u quarter for three." "I see," said Arnie. “Making some extra money, aren’t you, to buy someI thing pretty for mamma?’’ “No, nia'tn," answered the sister. “I ' wish we could buy something pretty for mother, but we are trying tn get us some school shoes before lime to go back after Christmas.” Anne’s eyes sought the children's feet and her throat filled with a choking lump. “Why—why—yes. I’ll buy a dollar's worth. Will that help much?" “Oh, yes'm," from both simultanenusly. Their eyes sought each other’s in happy anticipation while Anne, struggling with her packages, clumsily extracted the bill from her purse. 1 "Now tell me where you live, little ! - tulip makers. I might want some more of them sometime," taking tl.c bunch held out to her. The address wr s carefully noted, and thoughtfully Anne stood- watching the children as they became lost in the street crowd. For the fust time, her eyes had lieeii opened to a new life. ' Next day a rap on the door of a cottage in a poor section of the city brought t’.n answer from one of tin I flower girls. No one was in sight, but ! as the door opened a big car was seen ' moving away and on the porch v.as a large well-tilled basket ornamented with holly and one big red candlo. When the basket was taken inside and examined many useful gifts for moilicr and the girls were disclosed as well a l a generous supply of fruit, nuts and candy. The card read : “I shall drive by on Christmas night. If you are happy let the wreath and lighted candle speak from your windows.” Was the camlie burning? And did the wreath adorn the oilier front window? Well, yes; and the bright Qices within the well-lighted room brought to Anne Dawson far greater joy than the handsome gifts that were hers on Christmas morning.—Lily Rutherford Morris. (ffi. I?2T.
