JiNLARGED TO 16 PAGES, 112 IJONG COLUMNS. Amongst the Stories which have been secured for this LARGE CHRISTMAS PAPER are the following: rpHE £ JHRIST IJHILD, By FLORENCE MAERYAT. A pathetic story of au old couple who fear they will have to enter the workhouse on Christmas Day. They think they see a vision of the Christ Child beckoning them there. They bravely make up their minds to go, but are saved by the unexpected interposition of a son and daughter, who have all the while been arranging a comfortable home in which the worn old couple shall end their drsys. THE OLD CHURCH CLOCK. By MARY H. TENNYSON. Miss Tennyson has written a tale impreg- nated with Christmas sentiment and strong in dramatic situations. A returned emigrant, rich, and still young, reaches home to find that the girl lie loved has engaged herself to a miser, in order to shield her father from an attempted forgery. By a deft manipulation of the "Old Church Clock," and after many exciting incidents, the girl is rescued from her engagement, and restored to the arrtis of her true THE MYSTERY OF MARSDEN MANOR, By MARION WYMBQRNE. This is a Christmas story of the old. fashioned kind. It relates how a. man of great wealth has left all his money to a hypocritical nephew,, while he has unwittingly disinherited his favourite nephew, who is thereby unable to marry the girl of his choice. But it turns out that the death was a bogus one, the two young men having been submitted to a period of probation so that the reality of their pro- fessed affection could be tested, and the story ends happily with the resurrection of Sir Henry Marsden. £ 1HRISTMAS AMUSEMENTS IN THE HOME, By LUCIE HEATON ARMSTRONG.
