The mother's hand re<tod eare-.>-

in gentle tones. "I tear the prepar-

not taken it in charge. I have felt
sad siuce your brother Willie left

felt unusually sad thinking of him.
La9t Christmas he was with us here,
and although he spent much of the
holidays with companions whotn we
could not have desired for liiiu, am!
though he kept late, irregular hours,
still I could reach him occasionally

The mother, left once more alone

cheerful smile, resolved hi her heart
to trust Qui] to protivt. her erring boy

toward making home attractive and
happy for the remaining I'lcs.
The tea-bell soon ranv, and the
family gathered around the welt-ap-

New Year's eve was near its close.
The little family circle had gathered
around a glowing tire; Uie heavy
damask curtaius tailing around the
tall windows Cutting out the win-
tiy gloom of niirht, while a mellow

'I he cII11<111 n were full of childish
l^l-'i', tell.iifj nl the various plcusiires
and pastimes ot the Christmas lioli-
da\sw hieli ihey had enjoyed, ineel-
ing a response of affection now aud
then tiom their sister Cariie, who
sat at a tah e near by reading, while
the mother and father looked on the

eyes, at times j >iuiug in their con-
versation, or speaking in hiilidued
tones to each other ot the lost sou
whose name was no often oil tlieii
lips, and for whose course tluir
hearts were bind, u d. While sit-
ting thus the door-bell rang with an
uncertain sound, and thinking the
servant had perhaps nut heard the
summons, Carrie started to uiiswcr
tlie call, when they heard the ser-
vant open ilte front hall-door, ami
after a lew words, which they could
not hear, some one entered. The
servant opened ti.e door of the
apartment in which the family was
gathered, aud was about announcing
the visitor to them, w hen lie stepped
forward into the lull light ol the
room, and fiie parents with one
cl nice recognised their 1 nig-absent
hou. The mother was the first to
reach huu aud clasp him in Iter em-
bract ; then came the joyous greet-
ings of the other members of the
family.
"Oil, my husband.' (Jod has an-
sweied our prayers,'' said the mother
in trembling toii"s, looking with
fond affection upon her son, while
\\ illie j*tnod in agitation la-for"
them, not tnihting himself to utter
a word lest he sliouhf betrin Ins
euio: ion.
"You have Iw.-n ill," she said
agaui, anxion ly looking at, him, as
his latjjer drew an arm chair to the
fire for him to be seated.
"Yes, mother, ipiite ill sick both
hi mind aud body, ' ruturn-d Willie,
it unsteady tones; "but I shall now
gel well since 1 hive re c.im! home,"
He paused a moment in agitat on,
then burst forth, unable longer to
control himself: "Oh, mother! I
have been so sinlitl, have led such a
wicked, unsi.'riilil" lit" away among
t he mini is of New Mexico. I do n d
know when ! would have stopped ;n
