IT VANISHED WITH THE RING ING OP NEW YEAR BELLS. Patbetle Story of Dear Little Woman Who We Wedded to Her Art ' "A One Tbrooehont Eternity" A Sad Recital. N THE third Door of a business and tenement building combined lived my artist friend. She was a dear little woman, with a smile and a pleas ant word for every one who went to her door. Like nearly all persons In this line of work she took up paint ing, first for tho love of It, and after ward as a means of livelihood. To be sure she loved It, yet, but sometimes she had to work at It when her hands were weary and her eyes pained. It was at the close of the year. She had had a hard month's work filling Christ mas and New Year's orders, and when New Year's eve came and others were enoying themselves in various ways she sat alone in her little room, which served both as studio and a living room, too weary to light her lamp or prepare her evening meal. She gazed at a picture Just finished, a scene of her childhood and young womanhood haunts. Her thoughts went back to those happy days when not a thought of care cast a shadow on her young life. She thought of herself when, in the ex uberance of youth, she pictured her fu ture in brightest colors. She had hoped In those days to reach tho fame of Raphael or Michael Angelo. Friends, she had scores; lovers, she had not a few; but she answered to their supplications: "No, I am wedded to my art. It fills ray heart, mv life, mv being. 1 have room for naught else." But there came a day when she met one whose love she reciprocated and she was hannler than ever before. She asked herself: "How can I give him up; and, how can I give up my long cherished hopes to devote my life to this workr And she pondered over It until she became pale and thin and ambition finally conquered. It was to this part of her life In par tlcular that her mind reverted. "Be neath the spreading branches of this stately elm," she murmured, as she gazed dreamily and tearfully through the growing dusk at the painting be fore her, "ho told me of his love. The sorrowful expression upon his face, as I told him I could never be his wife, haunts me still. Oh, was I right? I have not succeeded as I desired. My fame has not reached foreign countries. I have spent many lonely hours here; no husband to encourage me In my work, to cheer me with his love. No loving little arms to encircle my neck; no lips to press my own. No one to sympathize with me, when I am weary and discouraged. Oh, have I made a mistake? And where is George? Has his life been wasted? Has he been true to me as he said he would be? Ah, I have not only missed something In my own life but have perhaps made a wreck of his. O, Father, I pray Thee, forgive me if I have been too ambi tious." The little artist clasped her worn hands In her lap and closed her eyes In slumber. The fire in the grate "SHE DREAMED THAT HER LOVER WAS WITH HER." burned lower and lower; but the moon's rays shed a halo of light about her head. She dreamed that she was once more a maiden fair and her lover was with her, but when he commenced to whis per to her the story of love he was suddenly called away. Thrice did he attempt it, and the last time her heart thrilled with his burning words but she bade him go. Then she heard a voice saying: "Woman, knowest thou what thou hast done? Thou hast outraged not only thine own heart, but that of the man. For this sin shalt thou suffer." She dreamed again and she thought she was at Heaven's gate. "Enter," said a voice, but it was not that of her first dream. It was low and sweet and said. "Sister, thou hast fulfilled thy tasks on earth. Thou couldst have made a happy home for thyself; but It was rejected, and instead thou bast done many deeds of kindness to weary and despondent ones, which loving acts have, like the ripples of the sea, gone on and on, only the Master knoweth whither. Thou hast comforted the sick, helped the poor, made happy the little children; but still thy life Is not complete; there awaits for thee a great Joy." The voice ceased, but she heard the sound of sweet music and far-off bells like silvery wedding bells. Suddenly a beautiful light shone above her, so that she closed her eyes and then she felt the clasp of a hand and beard the voice of ono of long ago saying: IP (c543 "Those on earth who are united In tore Cease not to care for each other above, For their souls then nnlted shall be And they'll be aa one through eternity." She awoke. The distant chimes on the cathedral were Joyously ringing In the new year. The sound of sweet music could be heard from afar, but no hand clasped hers. She knew then it was a dream. But who will say that the little artist will not find when she reaches the pearly gate the one from whom she has been separated in tills life? The New Tear Dawns. The New Year dawns the sun shinei strong and clear; And all the world rejoices and Is gay, The city-loving birds from spray to spray Flit busily, and twitter in my ear Their little frozen note et wlntr cheer; From ruddy children with the snow at play , , Ring peals of laughter, gladder thar in May. While friend greets friend, with "Hap py be thy Year!" So would I Joy, if Thou wert by my side- So would I laugh If thou couldst laugh with me But left alone, in Darkness I abide, Mocked by a Day that shines no mort on thee: From this too merry world my heart I hide My New Year dawns not till thy fac I see. Louise Chandler Moulton SetUfled. A group of pleasant faced chlldrei were playing in the sunny corner of i door yard on a bright New Year's day THIS JUMPING JACK IS A DANDY. Susie was saying, "Yes, I know my doll is littler than yours, but I do love her so! She's my own dolly! my own dolly!" And she sung it over and over, cuddling her dolly close. "Yes," said Lela, "my doll Is bigger, but yours is ever so much prettier, for mine is only a cloth dolly, and youre Is wax with real hair. I love to look at it, but I'm afraid to touch it for fear it would break. I suppose a dolly that won't break is best for me. Mamma says I'm pretty hard on a doll." Roy was looking at Johnny, playing with his Jumping Jack. Johnny said: "I did want a rocking horse, and was most sure Santa Claus would bring me one. I thought he'd kndw I wanted one so much. But this Jumping jack li a dandy, though," and he pulled tht string hard. The little figure turned two or three somersaults, and ended by standing on its head.
