[Illustration: DEAR DAUGHTER DOROTHY.]

"The child is father of the man."--so Wordsworth
sang; and here is a jolly story of a little girl
who was her father's mother in a very real way.
There were hard lines for him, and she was
fruitful of devices to help him along, even having
an auction of the pretty things that had been
given her from time to time, and realizing a neat
little sum. Then her father was accused of
peculation; and she, sweetly ignorant of the ways
of justice, went to the judge and labored with
him, to no effect, though he was wondrous kind.
Then in court she gave just the wrong evidence,
because it showed how poor her father was, and so
established a presumption of his great necessity
and desperation. But the _Deus ex machina_--the
wicked partner--arrived at the right moment, and
owned up, and the good father was cleared, and
little Daughter Dorothy was made glad. But this
meagre summary gives but a poor idea of the ins
and outs of this charming story, and no idea of
the happy way in which it is told.--_Christian
