Very wide awake I found him, the glorious 
brown eyes staring round my room, taking in 
every detail of its arrangement. 
“ Who are you ? How did I get here ? Am I 
nearly at Australia ? Who's that man in the pic¬ 
ture?” were the questions poured rapidly forth, 
before I had time to frame one inquiry. “I 
want to get up! Who's got my clothes ? ” came 
next.; then, “ Who put me to bed without any 
night-gown ? ” 
Not a sign ol tear or a word of homesickness! 
I was puzzled. 
“ What is your name ? ” I asked, sitting down 
beside him. 
“ Trot! I want to get up ! ” 
u You 6hall get up in a minute, but first tell 
your name, and how you came to be asleep in 
the station? ” 
“My name’s Trot; and the plaguy cars started 
off without me when I got out. It was a dark 
night and I could not catch them, so I went 
into the room and went asleep till they came 
again-’' 
“ Was your mother in the train—in the car ? ” 
“ No, nobody but just me. I’m going to Aus¬ 
tralia.” 
“Going to Australia?”

at Christmas, and we wanted some for our tree.

So Christmas is here again 1— 
While the house sleeps, quiet as death, 
’Neath the midnight moon comes the Waits’ shrill 
tune, 
And we listen and hold onr breath. 
The Christmas that never was— 
On this foggy, December air. 
With clear pale gleam, like the ghost of a dream, 
It 1 b painted everywhere. 
The Christmas that might have been— 
It is borne in the far-off sound 
Down the empty street, with the tread of feet 
That lie silent underground. 
The Christmas that yet may be. 
Like the Bethlehem star, leads kind; 
Yet our life chimes past, honr by hoar, fast, fast, 
Pew before, and many behind. 
The Christmas we have and hold 
With a tremulous, tender strain, 
Half joy, half fears--Be the psalm of the years, 
“Grief passes, blessings remain.” 
The Christmas that sure will come, 
Let- us think of at fireside fair; 
When church-bells will sound o'er one small green 
mound, 
Which the neighbors pass to prayer: 
The Christmas that God will give. 
Long after all these are o’er. 
Where is day nor night, for the Lamb is onr light, 
And we live for evermore.

attend this odd genius, professionally. The 
little note brought to my office by an elderly 
man on horseback, was signed “Lilian Gra¬ 
ham,” and urged my immediate attention. 
It was a long, cold drive, but the man repre¬ 
sented his master as very ill, so I prepared to 
obey the summons. “I had no idea vour 
master had a daughter,” I said, referring to my 
note. 
“That’s master’s niece,” was the reply; “a 
nice, sweetrspokc-n young lady as ever I see. 
She comes down on a visit sometimes from her 
father’s place near Albany. They were burnt 
out, her lather’s folks, last winter, and the fam¬ 
ily all went to Europe while the new house was 
a building. They came home about a fortnight 
I ago, but they won’t go to the house till spring, 
so some of them’s a boarding in New York, and 
some in Albany, and Miss Lilian she’s come to 
spend the winter with her uncle. They’re all 
coming down for Christmas, I expect,” 
I-found my new patient very ill, and for a week 
my visits were frequent, and more than once I 
passed a whole night by his bedside. I do not 
mean this for a love tale, so I will not weary my 
reader with the why and wherefore of my heart

‘' m spring of 1855 that this compound 
was originated. A member of my family was Mtllcted 
with »n Irritation of the throat, attended with a disagree- 
able congh. I had for some montlis previous thought 
that a preparation having for its basis the Inside bark of 
white pine might he so compounded aa to be very useful 
in the case or the throat and longs. To test the valne 
of it In the ease ullnded to, I compounded a small quan¬ 
tity of the medicine that 1 had heen planning, and gave 
it In teaspoonful doses. The result was exceedingly 
gratifying. Wlthlu two days the Irritation of the throat 
was removed, the cough subsided, ami a speedy cure was 
effected. Soon after this, I sent some, to r* lady In Lon¬ 
donderry, N. U., who had been suffering for some weeks 
from a bad cough, occasioned by a sudden cold, and had 
raised mucus streaked with blood. She soon found re- 
llci, and sent for mere. She took about ten ouncea of It 
and got well. J. R Clark,Esq., editor orthe Manchester 
Dally Mirror, made a trial ol tlu- smite preparation In the 
case of a severe cold, and was cured Immediately. He 
was so highly pleased with the results, and so confident 
of snccess attending Its sales If placed before the public, 
that he nnally persuaded me to give It anamc Bndsend' 
it abroad to benefit the suffering. In November, 18C5 ,1 
first advertised It under the name oi White 1’lue Com¬ 
pound. m two years from that time there bad been 
wholesaled In Manchester alone one hundred dollars' 
w oi tli, where It took the lead of all the cough remedies 
In the market, and It still maintains that position. There 
Is good reason for all this; It Is verysoothingand healing 
mils nature, Is warming to the stomach, and pleasant 
withal to the taste, and Is exceedingly cheap,

Compound stands unrivalled. It was not originated for

“ But don’t you know yon will have to sail in 
a great ship for months to get to Australia?” 
“Ellen went in the cars. We saw her go, 
mamma and I. We went in the carriage and 
said good-by, and she got in the cars with Mr. 
Williams. 
“Who is Mr. Williams?” I said 
catching at a name.

that purpoBC; but a person in using It for a congh, was 
not only enred of the cough, but was also cured of a kid¬ 
ney difficulty of ten years' stun ding, since that acciden¬ 
tal discovery many thousands have used It for the same 
complaint, and have been completely cured.” 
The above, was written by Dr. Poland In 1S60. Since 
then, aa in Manchester, the White Pine Compound has 
taken the lead or all Cough reined leu, as well as prepara¬ 
tions for the enro or Kidney difficulties. In every city, 
town, vtllago and hamlet, throughout the New Eng'and 
States. 
The past year lias given a great opportunity to teat the 
virtue of the While line Compound. It has heen an nn- 
usual time for colde and ooughg, and very large quantities 
of the White Pine Compound have been sold and used 
with the happiest effects. It speaks well for the Medicine, 
that the poople living where it Is prepared ore high in Its 
praise. 
One bottle of this Compound Is generally sufficient to 
remove a bad cough, and frequently I have known per¬ 
sons to have a cold entirely removed in two days, by us¬ 
ing less than half a bottle. From one to two tcaspoon- 
Juls Is a large dose. X sometimes put a little white sugar

I opened my sleepy eyes as the conductor’s 
voice rang through the care, and, taking my 
little carpet bag, sprang out upon the platform 
of the little, station. My brief holiday was over, 
and, with a shiug, I prepared for my short walk 
through the morning air, looking forward to the 
good fire and cup of coffee. I was sure Mrs. Wat- 
bou was keeping for me. 
It was a very rare event for me to leave the 
little village wboBe name heads this story. My 
father had been the only resident physician 
there, from the time when I was a boisterous 
school-boy up to the hour when, in his profes¬ 
sional rounds he fell dead with heart disease iu 
the main street, leaving me, his heretofore asist- 
ant, sole heir to his name, property and prac¬ 
tice. Ten years before they had carried my 
dear mother to the little churchyard, and in¬ 
stalled Mrs. Watson housekeeper in her place. 
The villagers were willing to let the youDg doc¬ 
tor step into his lather’s place beside their sick 
beds, and so for five years 1 had filled his duties. 
In all those five years I had taken no holiday, so 
when an invitation came from my old college 
friend and since correspondent, Clement. Payne, 
to spend Christmas with him, at his father’s 
place on the Hudson, I was 6orely tempted to 
accept and finally concluded to do so. It was 
literally Christmas 1 Epeut, leaving home at mid¬ 
night on the 24tb, and my friend’s house exactly 
twenty-four hours later. It had been a jileasant 
break in the monotony of my life, and as I stood 
at sunrise on the Hopedale station platform, I 
was sure my recreation would give me new vigor 
for my daily duticB.

the road, some Impulse, nay a Providence, led 
me to look in at the window of the room, by 
courtesy “Ladles’ Room,” of the station. It 
was cold and desolate. No fire was lighted, and 
there was no furniture, unless the hard wooden 
benches against the walls could be so denomi¬ 
nated. But curled up on one of the benches, 
sleeping soundly, lay a strange child. His dress 
of rich fur-trimmed velvet, the warm fur cap, 
long gaiters and mittens spoke of wealth and 
care, and the pale face, round which clustered 
6 hort curl6 of sunny brown, was round with

Hopedale child; I knew them alL My profes¬ 
sional instinct made my heart thrill with a sud¬ 
den shock, as I caught sight of the pale face, for 
well I knew the danger r that deep sleep in 
the biting winter air. licw long had he been 
there ? Was he already dead ? were the ques¬ 
tions I asked myself as I strode across the room, 
and lifted him in my arms. There was no breath 
came from the white lips, no throb at the wrist, 
only a faint, very faint buttering nnder my fin¬ 
gers as 1 pressed them over the baby heart 
Mantling him warmly in my cloak, I tore down 
the steps and raced along the road homeward at 
a pace that would have considerably amazed my 
patients, had any of them heen awake ot that 
early hour. 
Allowing Mrs. Watson no time for amaze¬ 
ment I pressed her into service, and in wnatehe 
called “a jiffy,” we had the little form un¬ 
dressed, in my bed, undergoing the most vigor¬ 
ous treatment. ~It was so long before we were 
successful that my heart almost, failed me; but 
at last the faint heart-throbs grew stronger; 
color came to the pale lips and cheeks, and a pair 
of large brown eyes appeared from under tLe 
heavily-fringed lids I had watched so anx¬ 
iously. 
Only a look ol sleepy inquiry was visible, as 
he stared a moment at me, then obeying my 
order to drink the Warm food Mrs. Watson held 
to his lips, my little patient closed his eyes again, 
and^turned over to finish his nap. He was safe 
now, I knew, bo leaving him to Mrs. Watson’s 
care, who by this time knew as much about him 
as I did, I went to sleep myself, to be ready for 
the clay’s duties. 
It was nearly nine o’clock when my house¬ 
keeper roused me to say that breakfast was ready i 
and the child awake.
