PRIPHNI AND DAMROSK..

A STUDY IN BADES.

They were iwlor, of course; otherwise they would not have been so terribly mixed up.

* Priphne and Damrose were nothing if not "theological babes, but their theology was į strangely redolent of the things of earth, and In this I think they resembled other children' being beautifully receptive to heavenly Ideas, but exhibiting no further sign of the divine origin of their souls, except an amazing capacì-. by for aspiration. Like young birds, they were sweetly eager to fly upwards, though all their tapprehensions were earthborne

"As i was made free of the Priphne-Damrose

nursery at all hours, I was able at one time, to pursue my psychological ausdies of in- telligent infancy anhampered. The twins had bad colds, for which reason they had been kept indoors for several wet days, and on pretence of amusing them my visits to the nursery were frequent and unceremonious.

Then came

bright, sunny morning, and, being up betimes; I went to see them while they were still in bed. Before emerging from - behind the screen which sheltered their cots

from the door I overhead a conversation:

Oh, Daphie," replied Primrose with awe,Fri, hope the angels won't catch it " "Yes," said "Daphnn as gravely; #sperbly as they've got no pocket-handkafsher."

Soon afterwards a little brother was added to the family circle, and wild excitement prevailed in the nursery world. But after the Brst few days of delighted wonderment the baby became less interesting than the fact bat, Purse's services being requisitioned for

to the care of the under-nurse. To walk out with Enuna, who might be plied with endless

questions, for she stood in no such autocratic a position as Nurse, was a prospect that pro mized important accessions to their stock of nowledge. For their thirst for information on wall sorts of thrilling topics was insatiable, while their elders, who of course could if they chose satisfy all cravings, were to the minds of twins | unaccountably bent on imparting nothing but the trivial and the tiresome.

Nurse had a way of closing all argument peremptorily, meeting the profound and heart. *searching matters that were constantly crop. bing up with an "I know but don't intend to tell air and a pursed up mouth that were calculated to silence the most pertinacious Be inquirer. Emma might carry less weight as an authority, but she was certainly not impos- ing, and such knowledge as she potented wa uiually at their disposal. So they bom barded her with questions which all the darned academics of Europe combined would Lave been puzzled to answer.

The momentary distressed and puzzled ex pression on Primrose's reraphic face was dis. pelled by Daphne's conclusive rejoinder, born of personal reminiscence, "Oh then I suppose he has an egg with his tea; and Emma, feel: ing herself to be incapable of coping with the subject, wisely left it in statu quò.

Which of you is Priphee and which Dam- Pose?" asked ans day, turning the tables to avert a coming question which I foresaw would for ever lower ine in their estimation, as it would oblige me to confess ignorance.

"Half of us is cach," was the metaphysical

reply.

:

But if I call Priphur, which of you will

come?*

Both of us," was the answer, and I could

get no further in my effort at disentanglement.

The Mailands were the twins' nearest neigh. ours, and little Margery, their only child some imes came over to spend some hours with them. After one long, blissful summer day together in the garden the hour of parting came, and affectionate farawells were exchanged be. tween the three children. Somewhat flat, tired, and a trifle cross, the Prighnes went up to their Bursary to bed. I paid them a visit to say "Good night," and found Primrose on her knees in her little white nightgown, saying rayers at Nurse's knee. Daphne, at a less advanced stage, was finishing her bowl of bread and milk, standing by the table.

God bless father, mother, Daphie, little brother-and Margery Mailand," came in rather weary tones from the cherry red lips, while the child's eyelids trembled in the effort to keep awake.
