A TRUE TALI:.
Once three little maids bat round the
'nursery fire %ronin!! for nurse and their

Ono child was u 'cry, very small

girl, enol Ito' with longing.
"Tell us n tale \laud," she said, "one
4f those toles you ece In the Bret"
"Yeth, a big figthi:g tale!" echoed the
taby g rl, and Mot:d, still gazing into
the glowing nshes, and holding up n
trail tote-linis r, began in,a solemn
tone very el.wly-.
"1 see a Fear, a great, great bear, who
eat, all little children --"
She stepped, for Jessie. the elder,
gave a cry of ftig'it, and Baby Edith
sobb2d-
'Not fat 'idle gaps 'ike me?"
Maud frowned, and shook the little
Oprighl finger, as els. leant towards the
tire.
"1 see -!we }ears! They come with a
'rush, and a spring -they leap up -they
open their mouths-"
So did Je,sio and Edith, with such s
tscre•am that rul•se tore into the room,
pop! el down a can of 'water, and
-snatched up the baby girl, and glared
at Maud.
"

Maud sighed, and pushed back her
long fair hair. "But i sew the bears,
tiuise, an' daddy loves my toles. Ile
calls me his 'l.11'ry girl,' an' t tell them
to him on Sunday, %Olen 1 sit on his
knee, an' curl his eyebrows."
Nurse sniffed.
'Oh, er couree, your pa's a t!t'ry gen-
tleman, but all l co.1 say is for nil the
tiresome scaring children, you're the
worst."
Tears shone in Maid's eyes.
"You told ale I said sweet things yes-
terday, nurse, when I preached m our
Sunday pulpit on the cushion on the
chair.''
"An' bless the child, you didt There,
there, I sposo one o' these days you'll

And little Maud, turning her face to
the fire, said, "Oh, 1 do hope so!"
And now, after many years, little
folks say she dyes.
THE GAME OF TAILOR.
1t wag a wet afternoon, but little
cared the children for that, for Tom
had just made up a mist beautiful new

Ile caller' it "playing at tailor."
Ton was the tailor; he took off his

Jack came up, dressed in an old coat

"Good -morning, sir," snid Tom the
tailor, very po'ilcly. "Whitt can I show

"Please to rneraure me for a new

"Does not Tom do tailor well?" said
Lucy, with n bread smile on her fnce,

"Mla.ter Tom keeps his cars and eyes

Tremendous Growth of Tramway Traf-
fic in the United Kingdon!.
The remarkable growth of tramway
traffic in Great Britain is indicuted in
a return issued by the Board of Trade.
The following figures show the sx-
tent of the progress made since 1578:
1878. 1906.
Miles of roue .. 269 2,219
Passengers .. ,.146,000,000 2,236,000,000
Net receipts . , . £ 230,956 X 3,807,415
Capital expendi-
ture .. .. .. .. £ 230,956 £:8,177,8'12
The popularity of electric lractiun,
Loth overhead and conduit, may be
gauged from the fact that of the total
number of miles open only 216 are not
worked by eiectrcity.
Local authorities owning and work-
ing their tramway undertakings made
a net profit of £2,529,752 on last year's
traffic.
:.t regard to the London ('aunty
Council tramways, the total length of
lin' omen to March 3Ist last year was
filly rniles on the northern system ond
flay th:er mites on the southern sys-
tem. The number of passengers car-
t ted was 185,524,649.
