Pretty Boon he could make out the

in the house.
Nearer and nearer they came. The

creeping down Into tiie Btoi'klng, nnd
then quick us a flash the Tin Soldier
was whiaked up Into the light.
“Djl! Oh! a Tin Soldier I” gasped
a little lioy, and the Tin Soldier
knew It must he Jimmie.
"I.ook, Mamina, look what Saiifii
lironght !” Jiminie whlsiienM} loudly
while lie gently shook his mother’s
ami, "A soldier! I’m going to take
him with me to Auntie’s today.”
And that is hoiv It happened.
Fiiigerly he ran on ahead of his par-
enl.s that night and was flrat at tlie
door of his uuiiHe’s bouse.
“.Fessle, .lessle, lee what Snnt!i
gave me,” he cnlleil breathleHsly the

Ills little cousin came running to

Slie hurried out of the room and
came running imek with something j

There was Dolly Diiu|)le, sure j
enough, smiling her dimpled smile at {
