“Great Scott!’’ exclaimed John, thor¬ 
oughly scandalized, “you disgraceful kids! 
Which one of you stirred this up?” But 
the guilty face at the tail of the romping 
procession was the face of old Asher. 
Radiantly triumphant the old Doctor 
swung little John Leslie 3rd to his shoul¬ 
der and faced his laughing family and as 
old Annie appeared with a steaming tray 
—he seized a mug of cider and held it 
high aloft. 
“To the ruddy warmth of the Christ¬ 
mas log and the Christmas home spirit—” 
he cried — “to the home-keeping hearts of 
the country-side ! Gentlemen — I give you 
— A Country home and a Country Christ¬ 
mas ! May more good folk come to know 
them!” And little John Leslie cried 
hoarsely — 
“Hooray, grandpop, hooray for a Coun¬ 
try Christmas!” 
Carelessly alive to the merry spirit of 
the night, the jester presently adjusted a 
flute which hung from his shoulder by a 
scarlet cord and lazily piping a Christmas 
air, wandered to another room—to come 
suddenly upon a forgotten playmate of his 
boyhood days. 
“It — it can't be!” he reflected in startled 
interest. “It surely can't be Madge Hil¬ 
dreth !” 
But Madge Hildreth it surely was, 
spreading the satin folds of his grand¬ 
mother’s crimson gown in mocking curte¬ 
sy. Moreover it was not the awkward, 
ragged, elfish little gypsy who had tor¬ 
mented his debonair boyhood with her 
shy ardent worship of himself and his dar¬ 
ing exploits, but instead a winsome vision 
of Christmas color and Christmas cheer, 
holly-red of cheek, with flashes of scarlet 
holly in her night black hair and eyes 
whose unfathomable dusk reflected no 
single hint of that old, wild worship 
slumbering still in the girl's rebellious 
heart. 
“And the symbolism of this stunning 
make-up ?” queried Ralph after a while, 
lazily admiring. 
The girl’s eyes flashed. 
“To-night, if you please,” she said, “I 
am the spirit of the old-fashioned Christ¬ 
mas who dwells in the holly .heart of the 
evergreen wood. A country Christmas, 
ruddy-cheeked and cheerful and rugged 
like the winter holly — simple and old- 
fashioned and hallowed with memories 
like this bright soft crimson gown !” 
Well, she had been a queer, fanciful 
youngster too, Doctor Ralph remembered, 
always passionately aquiver with a wild 
sylvan poetry and over-fond of book-lore 
like her father. Mischievously glancing 
at a spray of mistletoe above the girl’s 
dark head, he stepped forward with the 
careless gallantry that had won him many 
a kindly glance from pretty eyes and was 
strangely to fail him now. For at the 
look in Madge’s calm eyes, he drew back, 
stammering, colored and bowed. 
“I—- I beg your pardon!” said Doctor 
Ralph.
