They are beautiful to -look upon and wander over. Shady nut-trees stand here and there, and -through the meadow rushes a foaming brook that makes wild leaps over -the rocks that lie in its course. - -At the end of this village, where stands an old ivy-covered tower, a -path runs along by the brook-side. Here is a very large old nut-tree, -and it is a delight to the weary wanderer to throw himself down in its -cool shade and gaze far up at the blue sky and high mountains whose -tops are lost in the white clouds. Near the tree is a bridge over the -dashing waters which rush down between the high mountains. Here the -steep path leads to a small Swiss cottage with a little stall near by. -Higher is a similar cottage and above them still another, the smallest -of all perched up among the wild rocks. Before the low door is a grassy -sward where the goats are milked, and in the summer the door stands -always open. - -Here lived Joseph, the gatherer of wild hay, and Afra, his tidy -industrious little wife. They seldom left their tiny home except to go -to church, which they devoutly attended. - -Their boy was born on Saint Sebastian’s day and so received the name of -his patron Saint, but was commonly called Barty, and the little sister -who came two years later was for the same reason named Franzelie. - -But the good Joseph died and Afra was left a widow with the two -children for whom she must toil early and late. Their scanty clothing -was always clean and carefully mended. When the children went out -together, Barty always held his little sister fast by the hand, and -people said to the mother, “Your boy with his rosy face is like a -strawberry apple, and little Franzelie, with her fair face, blue eyes, -and golden curls, is like an altar picture.” - -But the mother said, “They are dear sweet children and I am earnestly -praying that the good God will keep them well and good and pure.” - - - - -[Illustration] - -It was a cold autumn and winter came early. In October deep snow fell, -and in November the little home was nearly buried out of sight. The -children sat in their corner by the stove and seldom went out of the -house. Barty was now seven. Franzelie five. - -But few passers-by came to make a path in the deep snow, and, when -the mother was obliged to go to the village for bread, she came back -well-nigh exhausted. Deep sorrow and anxiety filled her heart, and -if she could not earn enough by knitting and spinning for the black -bread, the little family must live upon the milk of the meager goat, -and there were still three long winter months before them. - -Formerly she had sung at night by her children’s bedside, but now she -was too oppressed to sing. - -One night she sat in silence listening to the wind. It howled and -rattled around the little cottage as if it would blow it away. -Franzelie was fast asleep--she had no care if her mother was by her -side--but Barty’s eyes were wide open. - -“Mother,” he said, “why do you never sing any more?” - -“Alas, dear boy, I cannot.” - -[Illustration: “Wait,” said Barty, “I will tell you how it goes.”] - -“Have you forgotten the song? Wait, I will tell you how it goes.” -And he sat up in bed and sang: - - “Now the shades of darkness - Fall o’er land and sea. - Father grant thy blessing, - May we rest in Thee.” - -He sang with clear pure tones, and a thought suddenly came to the -mother. - -“Barty,” said the mother, “perhaps you can do something for me.” - -“Oh, yes, I will,” he said eagerly, jumping out of bed. - -“No, No! Go back again, you will be cold,” and she tucked him again -into his warm nest. “To-morrow I will teach you a song for the New -Year; perhaps you can sing it in the village and get bread, possibly -nuts.” - -Barty thought over the wonderful plan and was too excited to sleep for -a long time. At last he called out, “Mother, is it almost morning?” -But, finding it was not, he quietly settled himself for the slumber -which soon came. - -Early in the morning he was ready for his lesson, but his mother told -him he must wait until she could sit down with her knitting, so in the -mean time, he told Franzelie what he intended to do. - -When the mother was ready she said, “I will sing the first verse twice, -then you must try to sing it with me.” - -Barty caught the air very quickly. “Now try it alone,” she said. - -To her surprise Franzelie joined her brother, and with a light silvery -voice gave the melody without mistake. Again they tried. Barty forgot -the air when half through, but his sister sang like a bird to the end. - -The mother was delighted. “Franzelie must go with us,” she said. And -day after day they sang together till words and music were alike -familiar to both of the children. - - * * * * * - -New Year’s Day came at last. It was bright and cold, and the mother -went early to church; that she never neglected. Then she hastened back -to dress the patiently waiting children as warmly as possible. - -Barty ran bravely through the high snow. Franzelie she helped over the -hard places. - -When they reached Altdorf, they found many children singing carols -before the houses, so they went on till they came to the great inn, -near an old tower. The mother stationed the children by the door while -she stood behind the tower. Soon the door opened and the children were -called into the large guest-room. The people praised the song, and many -pieces of bread and cheese and small coins found their way into the -basket Barty carried on his arm. The landlady put in some nuts, saying, -“One must have something besides bread on New Year’s Day.” - -The children heartily thanked their kind friends, then ran joyfully to -their mother. On they went to other houses. - -Before some of them so many children were singing their different -songs that the mistress of the house said she would rather give bread -than have such a disturbance. Some received them kindly; others sent -them empty away. - -More than one called to Franzelie: “Here, little one, is something for -you. Come in and get warm and then hurry home, you are shivering with -cold.” And the mother said they could no longer stand in the keen air. - -When they were once more by the warm fire in their little cottage, -they opened the heavy basket. In it were many nice pieces of bread and -cheese and nuts, and all were joyful, and the mother deeply thankful -that she would be spared many anxious fears. - - - - -[Illustration] - - - - -II - - -The long winter came to an end. Spring days followed, then the warm -summer time. The sun streamed through the window and door which stood -all the day opened, and the children could sit out in the fresh, sweet -air. The goats were driven into the upper pasture and gave much more -milk. But the mother could never rest from toil; there was wood to -gather for the coming winter, and the grass on the high slopes was cut -by her and spread out to dry by the children. Then it was bound into -bundles, which the mother carried on her head, and the sturdy Barty -also carried his little bundle. - -[Illustration: Summer time came, and the Grass on the high slopes was -cut] - -This was put into the loft over the goat-house. - -The days grew very hot and dry, and the goats gave less milk, the -mother spent the days and part of the nights knitting and spinning, but -there was little time for indoor work while the haymaking lasted, and -it was after a day spent in the heat that she returned to find a tiny -bit of bread which she divided between the children. - -“I am so sorry I have no more to give you,” she said; “I must knit -very fast to-night.” - -“But where is your piece, Mother?” asked the boy. - -“I do not wish any; I am not hungry.” - -Barty and Franzelie eagerly tried to divide their small portion. - -“No,” she said, “there is no use; perhaps if I could see the doctor -when I go to Altdorf, he would help me.” - -She sank back on the little cot on which she was sitting and her eyes -closed. She had fainted from weakness, but the children thought her -sleeping. - -“Come,” said Barty, “don’t wake Mother up. I will tell you what we will -do. We will go down to Altdorf and sing our song again, and if we can -get some bread or nuts we will bring them all home to mother. I think -she will sleep a long time. She is so tired and her face is so white.” - -Barty held his sister fast by the hand and drew her as far away as -possible from the rushing brook. They sang their carol as they went -through the meadows to be sure that they remembered it all, and hurried -eagerly on. They reached Altdorf, not pausing till they came to the -great inn with the sign of the Golden Eagle. - -The western sun threw golden rays on the little grass plot before the -house, and there under the trees was a long table surrounded by a large -company of strange young men. They wore red caps on their heads, and -their clothing was unlike what the children had seen in their own land. -It was a company of students who were on a walking tour through the -Alps, and they had made a long march that day. - -They were eating and drinking in great glee, and the children shrank -back at first startled by the loud voices, merry laughter, and wild -songs. - -The children stood awhile by the old tower, but when there was a short -pause they began the New Year’s Song. - -“Listen! Be quiet!” cried the powerful voice of the large man at the -end of the table. “I hear music.” - -The young men looked around, and when they saw the children cried, -“Nearer; come over here.” - -The children came, Franzelie timidly holding fast her brother’s hand. -The large man with ruddy face and heavy beard stretched out his long -arm and drew Barty to his side. - -“Now let them sing, Barbarossa,” cried the others. - -“Sing on,” he said; “don’t be afraid.” - -Barty sang with clear tones, and his sister joined with voice like a -little silver bell, and this was the song: - - “With joy we hail the glad New Year: - The old one has departed. - May blessed health and happy cheer - E’er keep you merry-hearted.” - -“Gracious goodness! We are on the other side of the globe,” cried -Barbarossa, “and here it is the New Year”; and howls of laughter rang -out. - -“Don’t make such a row,” cried the young man with black locks who sat -near Barbarossa; “see the little Madonna, she is trembling with fright.” - -“Count Maximilian,” replied Barbarossa, “you must take the little -Madonna under your special protection.” - -Maximilian held out his hand. “Come to me, little one,” he said; “now -go on with the song.” - -The child trustfully held fast to her new friend and sang: - - “Now bitter cold, and chilling blast, - O’er ice-bound earth is creeping, - But the dear Father holds us fast - Within his tender keeping.” - -“I have been wonderfully protected from cold this day,” said the merry -Barbarossa, and another noisy laugh rang out. - -“Go on, go on!” cried the students. - - “The feathered songsters seek in vain, - Their food on hill and heather, - And hungry children toil with pain, - Their daily food to gather.” - -“They must have it, they must have it!” cried one and all, and many -plates piled up with good things were set before the children, but -Barty would not be tempted, and the children sang on. - - “We wish you health and pleasures rare, - And may you, peace possessing, - Learn that who trusts the good God’s care - Will ever find a blessing.” - -Cheers followed and they cried: “That is a beautiful wish. That will -bring us good luck on our journey.” - -Then Barbarossa placed before Barty a plate piled up with good things. -He had never seen the like in all his life, and there was a beautiful -piece of snow-white bread upon it, such a rare treat! - -“Now, my son,” said the young man, “go bravely to work; let nothing be -left”; and others cried, “Here is more, he shall have this.” - -Barty gazed upon the treasures, his eyes growing larger and larger with -delight. Another well-filled plate stood before Franzelie, who still -held fast to her protector. - -She was very hungry, and was about to put a morsel into her mouth when -she saw that Barty was not eating, so she laid it back again upon the -plate. - -“Well, what is the matter, my brave grandson! What is your name?” said -Barbarossa. - -“Sebastian. They call me Barty.” - -“Good Barty, my son, what deep thoughts make your eyes so large, and -your appetite so small?” - -“If I only had a sack or basket!” - -“And what then?” - -“I would carry it all home to my mother. She had no bread to-day; -nothing but a little goat’s milk.” - -The hearts of the student party were filled with compassion. He should -have what he wished, and where did his mother live; was it near by? - -When Barty explained it was high up in the mountain, they exclaimed -with astonishment, and Barbarossa said, “If you have come so far, you -are surely hungry. Is it not so, Barty?” - -“Yes, and we had only a little bit of bread, but when Mother can finish -some knitting, we can have more.” - -Now all were interested and various plans were suggested, but -Barbarossa said, “First I will see that these two children have enough -to eat, then we will attend to the rest. Here, Barty, eat all that is -on your plate, and then your mother shall have what is on the table.” - -“Eat all of this?” said the boy with beaming eyes. - -“Yes, every bit of it; now begin.” - -Barty needed no more asking, and Maximilian saw to it that his little -charge had all she could eat. - -“Did your mother send you here to sing your song?” asked Barbarossa. - -“No; she did not know it. She fell back on the cot and went fast -asleep because she was so hungry, and she looked so white, and she had -said she wished she could see a doctor, and so I told Franzelie to come -with me and perhaps we could get bread just as we did on New Year’s -Day.” - -Then all understood how the children came to sing the New Year’s Carol. - -Barbarossa rose and said: “I move that we take our little runaway -friends back to their mother. To-morrow we must visit the places made -famous by the brave William Tell, so let us have a moonlight party to -the mountains to-night; the moon is full.” - -“And you, old Mediciner, shall have your first patient. You shall go -as Dr. Barbarossa and give good advice.” - -“And take my medicine with me, Maximilian?” he said, putting a flask of -wine into his pocket. “Some of you fellows bring another one.” - -All agreed to the moonlight party, but as they were gathering up their -alpenstocks, Maximilian said, “Do you think this small bit of humanity -with her tiny bare feet can keep up with your long strides? I propose -that our landlord give us a horse and chaise, and we can also take in -it the large provision basket our landlady has so nicely packed.” - -“Good,” said Barbarossa; “you shall go in it with the Queen Titania, -and we will walk with Barty for our guide.” - -So the party set out while the skies were all aglow with the sunset -hues and the snow-white peaks growing rosy with the reflected light. - -Franzelie was supremely happy, and her kind friend so won her childish -heart that she told him all about their mountain life, the goats, the -haymaking, and what they did in the long winter. - - - - -III - - -The mother had remained a long time in a stupor. At last she awakened, -but felt unable to move. The twilight had begun. She looked around for -the children. They were nowhere to be seen. - -“Barty!” she called. “Franzelie!” But no answer came. Fear gave her -strength. She ran out of the house, then to the goats; no one was there. - -The noise of the brook came up in the stillness and gave a new terror. -She folded her hands and prayed to the Heavenly Father for help. -Then she ran down the path. There was a crowd of strange-looking men -climbing up the steep singing rollicking songs, and some one pointed -with his alpenstock to their little home. - -“God in Heaven,” she cried, “what can have happened?” - -“Mother! Mother!” cried Barty’s clear voice. “We are all coming. The -gentlemen are with us. You can’t think what they’re bringing, and -Franzelie is in a chaise with a horse!” - -Barty hurried up the path and was met by his mother with warm embraces -and sincere thanks to the dear God who had safely led him back to her. - -Barty breathlessly told his story, and by this time she was surrounded -by the strange young men who addressed her as if she were an old friend. - -And there were more climbing up the steep way. Two carried, on the -alpenstocks resting on their shoulders, a huge basket, and after them -came a gentleman leading Franzelie, and the shy child was talking to -him as if he were a lifelong friend. - -When the mother had warmly thanked him for his kindness, he said, “The -children told me you were sick, so I have brought you a doctor. Here, -Dr. Barbarossa, give good counsel.” - -The tall man bowed low as he went through the door to the little -cottage; he sat down beside the mother and she told about her bad -feelings, and how little food she had had. She had felt no pain, only -great weakness. - -“I have brought you some medicine,” he said, taking the flask out of -his pocket. - -The mother could not find words for her thanks. “God bless you,” she -said with tears. The children added eager thanks, and cried, “Come -again, come again.” - -The young men told enthusiastically how they had enjoyed their walk, -the gorgeous sunset hues, the beautiful moonlight views of the -mountains, and the opportunity to see a real Swiss cottage in the Alps. -They would not soon forget it, and with many kind words they departed. - -Down the path they went with long leaps and strides. - -Barty stationed himself on a projecting rock and called after them, -“Good-bye, Count Maximilian! Good-bye, Dr. Barbarossa!”--and for a long -time the sound of jodels and merry songs came up from the valley below. - -Franzelie could not find words to describe the glory of a ride in a -chaise, and with a horse. But when the great basket was unpacked, the -joy of the little family knew no bounds. It contained so many nice -things, not the least of which were a whole round cheese and three -loaves of beautiful white bread. The mother said, “The dear Lord has -put that thought into the hearts of the young men. We will never forget -to pray for them.” - -As the students were returning in great glee from their mountain -adventure, Maximilian exclaimed: “It is not right, no; it is not -right; we have kept that poor widow and her children for a time from -starvation, but what will they do in the long winter without good food -or warm clothing? I move that we take up a collection this very night -and send it to them by our landlord.” - -“Count Maximilian,” said Barbarossa, “your intention is good, but the -project is impracticable. You forget we are on a long journey; some -of us have no more money than we shall need to bring us home again. -I propose another motion. It is that we shall form a society, the -Bartiania, with a yearly fee. We will make our mothers and sisters -honorary members. As soon as we reach home, we will pay in our yearly -dues. They will give loving aid and advice and make ready the needed -clothing, and the first contribution from the Bartiania Club will be -forwarded.” - -This proposal was received with great applause, and, when the merry -party reached the inn at Altdorf, they seated themselves around the -table and in the moonlight the constitution of the Bartiania Society -was drawn up and duly signed. - -How great was the surprise of Afra, a month later, when the -post-messenger appeared at her cottage with a heavy bundle, which with -all his strength he rolled through the opened door. As he wiped the -moisture from his brow, he said, “I greatly wonder, Afra, that you have -acquaintances so far away, and the postmaster cannot understand it at -all, or make out who it is.” - -“It is surely a mistake,” said Afra; “it cannot be for me.” - -“You can read,” said the post-carrier bluntly as he went on his way, -and without doubt the plainly addressed package was in its right place. - -The children gazed in wonder as the mother ripped open the sacking -which was carefully sewed around the mysterious bundle. Out came coats -and jackets, skirts, shoes and stockings. A roll of warm flannel in -which was a heavy package containing many silver coins, and there were -picture-books and various other things which brought great joy and -delight to the little family. - -[Illustration: The wonder grew until Franzelie found a Card] - -Who could have sent it? The wonder grew until Franzelie found a card -on which was written: - - “Whoever trusts the good God’s care - Will surely find a blessing.” - -“That was in the song we sang at the inn. The gentlemen have sent it.” - -“Yes, it came from them,” said they all with great thankfulness. - -There was now no anxiety for the coming winter, and the mother was -already strong and well again. - -And the wonder continued when on the succeeding year a similar package -came, and on the year following, another. - -The Bartiania Club flourished, and the honorary members used to lay -aside comforts and outgrown clothing for the brave boy and the fair -little maiden with the sweet face of a Fra Angelico Angel, for so the -enthusiastic students had described them on their return from the Swiss -journey. - -Some of them promised to take another Alpine trip and the sisters -declared they would surely go with them. - -Afra keeps the card upon her wall, and if she feels fearful of what the -future may bring is reminded: - -[Illustration: - - Whoever trusts the Good God’s care - Will surely find a Blessing -] - - -The End - -*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK THE NEW YEAR'S CAROL *** - -Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will -be renamed. - -Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright -law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works, -so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the -United States without permission and without paying copyright -royalties.

They are beautiful to -look upon and wander over. Shady nut-trees stand here and there, and -through the meadow rushes a foaming brook that makes wild leaps over -the rocks that lie in its course.</p> - -<p>At the end of this village, where stands an old ivy-covered tower, a -path<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_2"></a>[2]</span> runs along by the brook-side. Here is a very large old nut-tree, -and it is a delight to the weary wanderer to throw himself down in its -cool shade and gaze far up at the blue sky and high mountains whose -tops are lost in the white clouds. Near the tree is a bridge over the -dashing waters which rush down between the high mountains. Here the -steep path leads to a small Swiss cottage with a little stall near by. -Higher is a similar cottage and above them still another, the smallest -of all perched up among the wild rocks. Before the low door is a grassy -sward where the goats are milked, and in the summer the door stands -always open.</p> - -<p>Here lived Joseph, the gatherer of wild hay, and Afra, his tidy -industrious<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_3"></a>[3]</span> little wife. They seldom left their tiny home except to go -to church, which they devoutly attended.</p> - -<p>Their boy was born on Saint Sebastian’s day and so received the name of -his patron Saint, but was commonly called Barty, and the little sister -who came two years later was for the same reason named Franzelie.</p> - -<p>But the good Joseph died and Afra was left a widow with the two -children for whom she must toil early and late. Their scanty clothing -was always clean and carefully mended. When the children went out -together, Barty always held his little sister fast by the hand, and -people said to the mother, “Your boy with his rosy face is like a -strawberry apple, and little Franzelie, with her fair<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_4"></a>[4]</span> face, blue eyes, -and golden curls, is like an altar picture.”</p> - -<p>But the mother said, <span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_5"></a>[5]</span>“They are dear sweet children and I am earnestly -praying that the good God will keep them well and good and pure.”</p> - - -<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop" /> - -<div class="chapter"> -<div class="figcenter"> -<img src="images/i_005.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="251" /> -</div> -</div> - -<p>It was a cold autumn and winter came early. In October deep snow fell, -and in November the little home was nearly buried out of sight. The -children sat in their corner by the stove and seldom went out of the -house. Barty was now seven. Franzelie five.</p> - -<p>But few passers-by came to make a path in the deep snow, and, when -the mother was obliged to go to the village for bread, she came back -well-nigh exhausted. Deep sorrow and anxiety filled her heart, and -if she could not earn<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_6"></a>[6]</span> enough by knitting and spinning for the black -bread, the little family must live upon the milk of the meager goat, -and there were still three long winter months before them.</p> - -<p>Formerly she had sung at night by her children’s bedside, but now she -was too oppressed to sing.</p> - -<p>One night she sat in silence listening to the wind. It howled and -rattled around the little cottage as if it would blow it away. -Franzelie was fast asleep—she had no care if her mother was by her -side—but Barty’s eyes were wide open.</p> - -<p>“Mother,” he said, “why do you never sing any more?”</p> - -<p>“Alas, dear boy, I cannot.”</p> - -<p class="space-above2"></p> - -<div class="figcenter"> -<img src="images/i_006.jpg" alt="" width="399" height="550" /> -<p class="caption center p100">“Wait,” said Barty, “I will tell you how it goes.”</p> -</div> - -<p class="space-above2"></p> - -<p>“Have you forgotten the song? <span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_7"></a>[7]</span>Wait, I will tell you how it goes.” -And he sat up in bed and sang:</p> - -<div class="poetry-container"> -<div class="poetry"> - <div class="stanza"> - <div class="verse">“Now the shades of darkness</div> - <div class="verse">Fall o’er land and sea.</div> - <div class="verse">Father grant thy blessing,</div> - <div class="verse">May we rest in Thee.”</div> - </div> -</div> -</div> - -<p>He sang with clear pure tones, and a thought suddenly came to the -mother.</p> - -<p>“Barty,” said the mother, “perhaps you can do something for me.”</p> - -<p>“Oh, yes, I will,” he said eagerly, jumping out of bed.</p> - -<p>“No, No! Go back again, you will be cold,” and she tucked him again -into his warm nest. <span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_8"></a>[8]</span>“To-morrow I will teach you a song for the New -Year; perhaps you can sing it in the village and get bread, possibly -nuts.”</p> - -<p>Barty thought over the wonderful plan and was too excited to sleep for -a long time.

The people praised the song, and many -pieces of bread and cheese and small coins found their way into the -basket Barty carried on his arm. The landlady put in some nuts, saying, -“One must have something besides bread on New Year’s Day.”</p> - -<p>The children heartily thanked their kind friends, then ran joyfully to -their mother.

Come in and get warm and then hurry home, you are shivering with -cold.” And the mother said they could no longer stand in the keen air.</p> - -<p>When they were once more by the warm fire in their little cottage, -they opened the heavy basket.

He should -have what he wished, and where did his mother live; was it near by?</p> - -<p>When Barty explained it was high up in the mountain, they exclaimed -with astonishment, and Barbarossa said, <span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_22"></a>[22]</span>“If you have come so far, you -are surely hungry.

She fell<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_23"></a>[23]</span> back on the cot and went fast -asleep because she was so hungry, and she looked so white, and she had -said she wished she could see a doctor, and so I told Franzelie to come -with me and perhaps we could get bread just as we did on New Year’s -Day.”</p> - -<p>Then all understood how the children came to sing the New Year’s Carol.</p> - -<p>Barbarossa rose and said: “I move that we take our little runaway -friends back to their mother.

I propose -that our landlord give us a horse and chaise, and we can also take in -it the large provision basket our landlady has so nicely packed.”</p> - -<p>“Good,” said Barbarossa; “you shall go in it with the Queen Titania, -and we will walk with Barty for our guide.”</p> - -<p>So the party set out while the skies were all aglow with the sunset -hues and<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_25"></a>[25]</span> the snow-white peaks growing rosy with the reflected light.</p> - -<p>Franzelie was supremely happy, and her kind friend so won her childish -heart that she told him all about their mountain life, the goats, the -haymaking, and what they did in the long winter.</p> - - -<hr class="chap x-ebookmaker-drop" /> - -<div class="chapter"> -<h2 class="nobreak" id="III">III</h2> -</div> - - -<p class="noindent"><span class="smcap">The</span> mother had remained a long time in a stupor.

They were nowhere to be seen.</p> - -<p>“Barty!” she called. “Franzelie!” But no answer came. Fear gave her -strength. She ran out of the house, then to the goats; no one was there.</p> - -<p>The noise of the brook came up in<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_26"></a>[26]</span> the stillness and gave a new terror. -She folded her hands and prayed to the Heavenly Father for help. -Then she ran down the path. There was a crowd of strange-looking men -climbing up the steep singing rollicking songs, and some one pointed -with his alpenstock to their little home.</p> - -<p>“God in Heaven,” she cried, “what can have happened?”</p> - -<p>“Mother! Mother!” cried Barty’s clear voice. “We are all coming. The -gentlemen are with us. You can’t think what they’re bringing, and -Franzelie is in a chaise with a horse!”</p> - -<p>Barty hurried up the path and was met by his mother with warm embraces -and sincere thanks to the dear God who had safely led him back to her.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_27"></a>[27]</span></p> - -<p>Barty breathlessly told his story, and by this time she was surrounded -by the strange young men who addressed her as if she were an old friend.</p> - -<p>And there were more climbing up the steep way. Two carried, on the -alpenstocks resting on their shoulders, a huge basket, and after them -came a gentleman leading Franzelie, and the shy child was talking to -him as if he were a lifelong friend.</p> - -<p>When the mother had warmly thanked him for his kindness, he said, “The -children told me you were sick, so I have brought you a doctor. Here, -Dr. Barbarossa, give good counsel.”</p> - -<p>The tall man bowed low as he went through the door to the little -cottage; he sat down beside the mother and she<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_28"></a>[28]</span> told about her bad -feelings, and how little food she had had. She had felt no pain, only -great weakness.</p> - -<p>“I have brought you some medicine,” he said, taking the flask out of -his pocket.</p> - -<p>The mother could not find words for her thanks. “God bless you,” she -said with tears. The children added eager thanks, and cried, “Come -again, come again.”</p> - -<p>The young men told enthusiastically how they had enjoyed their walk, -the gorgeous sunset hues, the beautiful moonlight views of the -mountains, and the opportunity to see a real Swiss cottage in the Alps. -They would not soon forget it, and with many kind words they departed.</p> - -<p>Down the path they went with long leaps and strides.</p> - -<p><span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_29"></a>[29]</span></p> - -<p>Barty stationed himself on a projecting rock and called after them, -“Good-bye, Count Maximilian! Good-bye, Dr. Barbarossa!”—and for a long -time the sound of jodels and merry songs came up from the valley below.</p> - -<p>Franzelie could not find words to describe the glory of a ride in a -chaise, and with a horse. But when the great basket was unpacked, the -joy of the little family knew no bounds. It contained so many nice -things, not the least of which were a whole round cheese and three -loaves of beautiful white bread. The mother said, “The dear Lord has -put that thought into the hearts of the young men. We will never forget -to pray for them.”</p> - -<p>As the students were returning in<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_30"></a>[30]</span> great glee from their mountain -adventure, Maximilian exclaimed: “It is not right, no; it is not -right; we have kept that poor widow and her children for a time from -starvation, but what will they do in the long winter without good food -or warm clothing? I move that we take up a collection this very night -and send it to them by our landlord.”</p> - -<p>“Count Maximilian,” said Barbarossa, “your intention is good, but the -project is impracticable. You forget we are on a long journey; some -of us have no more money than we shall need to bring us home again. -I propose another motion. It is that we shall form a society, the -Bartiania, with a yearly fee. We will make our mothers and sisters -honorary members. As soon as we reach home,<span class="pagenum"><a id="Page_31"></a>[31]</span> we will pay in our yearly -dues. They will give loving aid and advice and make ready the needed -clothing, and the first contribution from the Bartiania Club will be -forwarded.”</p> - -<p>This proposal was received with great applause, and, when the merry -party reached the inn at Altdorf, they seated themselves around the -table and in the moonlight the constitution of the Bartiania Society -was drawn up and duly signed.</p> - -<p>How great was the surprise of Afra, a month later, when the -post-messenger appeared at her cottage with a heavy bundle, which with -all his strength he rolled through the opened door.

Out came coats -and jackets, skirts, shoes and stockings.
