New year s Day from an attic philosopher in by em1le Souvestre i i Ujj i i january the Day of the month i came into my mind As soon As i i awoke. Another year is separated from the Chain Ages and drops in to the suit of the past the crowd hastens to Welcome her Young sister. And Paulette is no longer the same the other Day she was s. Child now she is almost a Young woman. Paulette is thin Pale and miserably Clad b it she hns always the same open and straightforward look the same Mouth smiling at every word As if to court your sympathy the same but while All looks Are turned toward i somewhat timid yet expressing Simpkins Bros. The future mine revert to the past. Every one smiles upon the new Queen but in spite of myself. I think of her whom time has just wrapped in her winding Sheet. The past year least i know what she was and what she has Given me while this one comes surrounded by All the i fondness. Paillette is not is even thought Plain As for me i think her charming. Perhaps that is not on her account but on my own. Paulette appears to me a. Part of my happiest recollections. It was the est icing of a Public holi Day.

I had brought Only the supper and the Sandbox maker and her children sup plied the enjoyment. What bursts of laughter at nothing that a hubbub of questions which waited for no reply of replies which answered no questions the old woman herself shared in the wild merriment of the Little ones i have Al ways been struck at the ease with which the poor forget their wretched Ness. Being Only used to live for the present they make a. Gain of every pleasure As soon As it offers itself. But the surf edited Rich arc More difficult to satisfy they require tinier and j everything to suit before they will consent to be Happy. The evening passed like a moment. The old woman told me the history of her life sometimes smiling. Sometimes drying her eyes. Sang an old Ballad with her fresh Young voice. Henry told us what he knows of great writers the Day. To whom he has to carry their proofs. At last we were obliged to separate not without fresh thanks on the part of the Happy family.

As it opened the new year they surrounded its commencement with Good omens and thence came the custom of visits Between neighbors of wishing happiness and of new years gifts the romans were symbolic. Promises to evening. It has Given me much com fort and much instruction. Now no new Eyar s Day will come amiss to me i know that no one is so unhappy As to have nothing to give and Noth ing to receive. As i crime in. I met my Rich neigh Bor s new equipage. She too had just returned from her evening s party and As she sprang from the Carriage step with feverish impatience i heard her murmur at last j. When i left Paulette s family said so soon what j winds and the fireworks had just shot which i Forth their spouts of name into the Mist of the Champ de Mars. All of a sudden one of those Unac countable alarms which strike a multitude with panic fell upon the dense crowd they cry out. They Rush on headlong the weaker fall and i the frightened crowd tramples me of temper i Down in its , struggles. I escaped from the confusion by a Mir Acle and was away when the cries of a perishing child arrested me i re Gnu red hat human chaos a id. After unheard of exertions i brought Paulette out of it at the peril my Lite that was two years Ngo since then i had not seen the child again but at Lone intervals and i had almost for gotten her but Paillette s memory was that of a grateful and she Caine at the beginning of the year to offer me her wishes for my happiness.
