Now First Pub Hshed—All Rights Reserved.) | Fifty ycars ago SerenasAnu lived in Braintree, and Christmas-kecping was not yet much the fashion in New England. Serena Ann was ten years old, and she had } ner Christmas-tree, hung up her stocking or had a Christmas present even. Serenn # iather was a farmer; she had a mother, and an Aunt Love, her mother’s sister, who lived with them, and was to be married in February, and a brother Ebenezer Ehe: was two years older than Serena Ann, and went to the distriet school winters. Serena Ann herself went ol onl She was a i oolhouse to walk in cold in the summer and the s for her to sehr ws too far aways Weather.

So her education was not negiect cc One nightin the ber, Serena first week in Decem- Ann was sitting beside the fire, with the piece of broken s'ate on her lap, trying to do a sum about ten gray hounds running a race, and how long it would take for one to catch up with the other, when Ebenezer came heme trom school There was alight snow falling, and Ebenezer was powdered with it He came in <termning his cowhide shoves and | shakite hirmsc like a dog Aunt Love | wns searing green velvet on her wedding pe lisse ut Mra.

Aunt Love was very pretty, with smooth brown hair, and pink cheeks “I've gotta get the snow off,” panted Ebenez:i On, mother—!" “You ought to get it off in the shed, then,” said his mother. “Oh. mother!’ “And not shake it all over the clean floor, ated your annt’s pelisse “Oh, b Sammy Morse oper says he’s going to hang up his stocking the night before Christmas!” Phen Serena Ann looked up from piece and her grayhounds, “[Tdon't want to hear any said Mrs. Bagley. are going to put some- of slate such non- Sense “Hesavs his folks thing in it for him,” “If they want to be so silly they can.” “Mother, can’t I hang up my stock- ing?” “Yes.” said his mother. “‘yen can hans it up all you want to, but you anything init.

If not her mother, Aunt Love. or her father might, or even Joshua Sinimons, the young mah whom Aunt Love wa :poing to marry; he sometimes gave Lera peppermint. And after all her mother was a pretty tender one, and she might relent. SoSerena Ann hung up her stocking the night before Christmas. It is quite possible if Mrs. Bagley had seen that poor little blue yaru stocking hanging in the chimney corner she might have slipped at least a bunch of raisins, and a cinnamon stick of two, into it, and Aunt Love might have tucked in a bit of blue ribbon. But nobody saw it, for Serena Ann, with the want of calculation of her innocent heart, slipped out after every- body was in bed and hung it up. At breakfast the next morning Serena Ann’s mouth drooped pitifuily at the cor- ners, and she did not eat much. “You area silly girl to set so,” said her mother. “You knew what I told you.” “I s’pose Sammy Morse has got his stock- ing chuck full,’’ said Ebenezer. He felt Serena Ann’s injury to be his own. “Go oat in the shed and bring in some more of that apple-tree wood, if you’ve finished your breakfast,’ said his mother, and then she sent Serena Ann upstairs to make her bed. As soon as the door closed, Aunt Love turned te her sister. “Suppose Joshua and J take Serena Ann to Boston with us,” said she. Mrs. Bagley looked at her doubtfully. “I’m afraid she'll be im your way,’’ she anid. “No, she won't, and it will make up to her for not having anything in her stock- ing. I felt sorry for her. Serena Ann isa good little girl.” “Well, I felt sorry she took it sa to heart,” said Serena Ann’s mother, “but it’s asilly custom, and I don't know how to begin it. IT suppose she would be tickled ro death to go with you and Joshua. She never went to Boston but once; Ebenezer’s been twice.” “She must come right down and get ready if she’s going,’ said Aunt Love, “for Joshua will be here with the chaise.” And Serena Ann was called and told, to her joy and wonder, that she was to go to Boston with Aunt Love and Joshua Sim- mons, “But you must bea good girl and not make any trouble,” said her mother, “for your Aunt Love has a great deal to do, She is going to buy some of her fur- niture, and her wedding bonnet and shoes, and she is very kind to take you.” And Serena Aun promised beamingly, She had never felt so happy in her Life as she did that Christmas morning, when she set forth to visit Boston, tacked in between Aunt Love and Joshua Simmons in the chaise. It was very pleasant, but cold: there was a slight rime of snow on the ground, which shone like silver. Serena Aun wore her thick wadded coat, her lambswool tippet and her wadded brown sitk hood with cherry strings. She was quite warm, and her face was so pink and radiant with bliss that Aunt Love and Josi.ua looked at her, and smiled at each other above her head. Serena Ann, moreover, had, tightly grasped in one red-mittened hand, her mother’s silk purse, and it contained two ninepences, one of which she was to spend for herself, and the other for a jack-knife AUNT LOVE AND INSURES GOOD ans MED.G0.C . for Ebenezer.

When they reached the city they stopped at the Sign of the Lamb, where Joshua Simmons put up his team; then they all went shopping down Hanover street, where the fashionable stores were at that time. Serena Ann enjoyed buying Aunt Love's and Joshua Simmons’ wedding furniture quite as much »s they did, She thougit there was never anything quite so hand some as their baircloth sofa, and mahog- any card-table, and looking glass, and she trudged after them to all the sliops where they priced articles and then back to the ons where they found them and best, and never thought of being tired But she was viad at noon to go back to the Sign of the Lamb, and have some bak ed beans and a piece of pumpkin pie. They seemed to her far superior to the baked beans and pie at home. After dinner Joshua Simons left them. Hheapesi He had to vo a little farther to see about his own wedding suit, and Aunt Love meanwhile was to buy her wedding bonnet and shoes, and Serena Ann make her pur- chases. Then they were t meet at the Sign of the Lamb, and go home Serena Ann went with her aunt from shop to shop, and watched her try on bon- nets until she finally Lougbt a beautiful one of green uncut velvet trimmed with white plumes and white lutestring ribbon. Then they started to buy the shoes, Aunt Love carrying the bonnet ina large green bandbox. There was quite a crowd in Hanover street that afternoon. A great many ladies were out shopping. Serena Ann could not walk beside her aunt very well, she so jostled, so she fell behind. Now and then took hold of the skirt of her auntie’s blue delaine gown, so as not to lose her Nobody ever knew how it happened, but suddenly. after she had been pushed by the hurrying people and had caught hold of the blue delnine gown, the lady whe wore it looked aronnd and she Lun Love.

So Aunt Love went down the side streets, looking and inquiring of everybody. She almost cried as she went along, carrying her big green bandbox, looking in vain for Serena Ann. She did not know what to do, but finally it occurred to her that it was nearly the time for her to meet Joshua Simmons at the Sign of the Lamb, and that in all probability some benevolent person would have taken Serena Ann thither. So Aunt Love has- tened/to the Sign of the Lamb, but it took her some time, for she had wandered quite a distance. But Miss Pamela Soley was not wise enough to think that the best plan was to take Serena Ann to the Sign of the Lamb at once, since they could not find her Aunt Love on Hanover street. She was quite a young lady, in spite of her stately manners, and not had much experience in rescuing lost little girls. She stood for some time in Hanover street, holding Serena Ann’s hand, deliberating what to do. But finally a bright thought struck Miss Pamela Soley: **My brother Solomon is coming for me in our chaise to take me home to Jamuica Plain, where we live,” said she. “He is going to meet me at the corner just below here in about half an hour. We will make your purchases and then we will'ask him what todo. My brother Solomon always knows what is best todo. He is older than I, and carried off many honors at Harvard college. Don’t ery, Serena Ann. He'll be sure to find your aunt for you.” Serena Ann was somewhat comforted, for the young Iady had a way at once sweet and commanding, and she went hand in hand with her and purchased a beautiful jack-knife for Ebenezer, with one ninepence, anda piece of white nain- sook for her mother’s apron with the other. Miss Pamela Soley herself made two purchases—a little rosewood work box, with scissors, and thimble, and ivory bod- kin, all complete, and a doll ina very handsome spangled dress tike a princess. The last purchase rather surprised Serena Ann, for she had thought the young lady too old to play with dolls, but she eyed it admiringly. She had never had a doll herself, except one which Aunt Love made for her out of acorncob. She sighed when Miss Pamela Soley tucked the doil with | the rosewood workbox out of sight in her great muff. Mr. Solomon Soley was waiting in the chaise on the corner when his sister ap- peared with Serena Ann and told her story. He was a handsome young man, in 4 very fine mulberry colored cloak. “We must take her to the Sign of the Lamb at once,’’ Mr, Solomon Soley said, decidedly, and Miss Pamela and Serena Ann got promptly into the chai-e and they mide haste to the Sign of the Lamb. However, just before they reached the tavern, Miss Pamela remembered an errand which her mother had begued her te do at Mr, Thomas Whitcomb’s store, and had her brother leave her there, saying she would join them ip a few min- utes. But when Mr. Solomon Soley inquired at the Sign of the Lamb, he found that Joshua Simmons and Aunt Love had driven away in their chase some half an hour before, and the hostler, who had been told, did not remember that they had merely gone to look about the city a litile for the missing child, and were then com- ing back to the tavern to see {f she had in the meantime been brought there. How. ever, another hostler remembered that the lady carried a large green baudbox and Was crying, a drove back to the store, wnere nis siscer had stopped, and before Serena Ann fairly knew it they were on the road to Brain tree. It had grown very cold, and the wind blew. Mr. Solomon got outa great plaid camlet cloak from under the chaise seat, “wk MUST TAKE HER TO TRE SIGN OF THE LAMB.” and put it on over his mulberry-colored oue. Then presently, because Serena Aun began to shiver a little, tucked in between the two as she was, he threw an end of the camlet cloak around her, over her brown silk hood. She was quite warm under that, and also quite hidden from sight. No body meeting them would have dreamed that there was a little girl in the chaise. In the meantime, Aunt Love and Joshua Simmons returned to the Sign of the Lamb, and the hostler, who had forgotten they were coming, told her that a gentleman in a chaise had been there with the little girl and said he was going to take her home to Braintree. ‘Guess you'll overtake ‘em,” said he. “Gentleman was alone in the chaise with the littie girl, wore a mulber- ry-colored cloak.” Aunt Love fairly wept for Joy. &Oh! Joshua, | am sothankful,” she ened. “I never could have told Sarah I'd lost Sere na Ann. And I haven't got my shoes, but I don’t care. Vil get married in my old ones. Let's start right away, so we'll overtake them.” Joshua Simmons started up the horse, und the chaise rattled out the tavern yard and down the road toward Braintree. But their chapter of accidents was not quite finished, for as they were crossing Neponset bridge, peering ahead to see if they could catch a yiimpse of the other chaise, a gust of wind took off Joshua Simmon’s hat and tossed it into the river. He had « cold in his head, too. Aunt Love pulled her hood promptly. “Put thison,’ said she. ‘Don’t say aword. If youdon’t you'll be laid up with influenza, and the wedding will have to be postponed, and that’s a bad sign.” “What’ll you do?” asked Joshua Sim- mons, hesitatingly. Aunt Love untied the green bandbox. “Put on this bonnet.” said she. ‘It’l! be so dark when we get home that the neigh bors can’t see it.’’ So Josiua put On the hood and Aunt Love the wedding bonnet, and it happened that when they finally overtook Solomon Soley, who had not much the and whose horse had got a stone in his shoe once and made a delay, that the occupants of thetwo chaises looked hard at each otherand saw npothing that they were looking for. For Joshua Simmons, who was natural ly somewhat ashamed of his woman's head gear, kept his face turned well awa, and both Solomon Soley and hissister, Pamela, thought there were two ladies in the chaise, and not the aunt and the young man for whom they were looking As for Serena Ann, she was fast asleep under the camlet cloak and saw nebedy, and her Aunt Love and Joshua never dreamed she was there. Moreover, they were looking for one gentleman in the chaise with her, and here was a young lady also. He wore a camilet cloak, tov, instead of a mulberry cloak, as they bad been told. So the two chaises rattled on almost abreast for quite a stretch on the turnpike. but finally Solomon Soley’s forged ahead a little, for his horse was fresher. They reached Braintree and when they were within a half mile of the Bagley farmhouse, Joshua Simmons turned into another road, which was a little shorter cut. Aunt Love was impatient to see if Serena Ann had reached home. And so it happened, since Solomon Soley’s horse was a little faster, that both chaises turned into the Bagley yard at the same time, and Serena returned from her Christmas out ing with something more exciting than a flourish of trumpets, Serena Ann herself was so tired and sleepy that she could not fairly realize any thing. It seemed to her like adream; the chorus of surprise and delight, Mr. Solo mon’s and Miss Pamela's coming into the house and getting warm, and eating sup per, and borrowing a footstove before the: started on their homeward journey, and everything. tart SUAPL, She scarcely even grasped in its full measure of delight the fact that Miss Pamela presented her with the wood workbox and the doll when she kissed her good-by, but Serena Ann had gotten one of the pleasantest memories of her life, and had her first Christmas keep- ing. rose THE GAME OF SNAPDRAGON.

I am a professor of Latin and Greek ina Western university, and I have lived all my life with those great men of antiquity who seem to me to be so much superior to the wretched little | mortals of to-day. DECEMBER 24, ; the pills from persoual trial, I am in New York on a visit for the | first time in my life, and what I have seen confirms me in the belief I cherish- ed so fondly in my secluded Westera home. Soon after my arrival I went out to | walk on your Boulevard, which I sup- | Pve advertised fur. pose is. in a certain sense, your Appian | Way, though it can hardly be called a rival of that famous Roman road. AsI walked along musing over the battle of Pharsalia and what might have been the course of history had Cwsar lost that contest I was startled by a whirring sound. I sprang hastily to one side and some- thing shot by me like a bolt from a cat- apuit. The catapult was much used by Romans in sieges, and was, I beiieve, invented by Dionysius, of Syracuse, which I mention for the information of your readers. I looked up and saw something which ' ° I cannot describe adequately, The face seemed to le that of a wo- man, for there was soinething feminine about it, and the hair upon the fore- head was like the fillet Greek women wore. but the costume was so strange, and the vehicle upon which the crea- ture was moanted was of such an odd appearance that I was not sure the rider was a woman. Well, I stood there staring for at leasi fifteen minutes through my glasses at I knew such athing had been described in my Latin and Greek books, but I could not place it. Other such figures shot past with a speed that alarmed me. At last, I turned to a youth who was passing and asked for information. “Why, you eld guy!” he exclaimed,in a most disrespectful manner, and in a dialect for which I can find no prece- dent, ‘‘dat’sa woman ona wheel, see? Where did you drop from? A woman ona bike! Don't youcatch on?’ Well, I did ‘‘catch on;” and I was amazed and shocked. A woman ona bicycle! Iam sure nosnch thing would have been tolerated in the golden age of Greek and Rome. I put it to you fairly. What wouid Pericies have thought if stroliing some day in the shadow of thc Parthenon, his head filled with mighty thoughts, he had looked down the main strect of Athens and had seen Aspasia come whirling along on a wheel? Or suppose Cicero, just after making one of his great speeches, had gone walking on the Aventine Hill and had met his mother going to -market ona bicycle! Such thoughts as these make me shudder. Iknew men were degraded in these days, but I had thought women, the American women at least, retained some of the classic grandeur. Alas! how cruelly was I taught the truth! Verily, Texclaimed to myself, para- phrasing the words of the mighty Romau: “Et tu, O foemina?’ Ihave seen nothing so shocking, noth- ing so shameless in this city—as th: sight of a wo:nan on a bicycle.
