Christmas is : corniiijV, t ries the child, and hef " sweet face is covered with smiles as she thinks of the never failmo- toys, that acempaiiies it. Christmas is cqmiug, cries the schod by, as he packs up the old dusty school books, may be for the last time, before the holidnVs, he forU Ids shelliticr book, his grammar. Ins ritbmetTc, yea, the very licking his schoolmaster rave him in the - conrempiation ot this all ahsorbing subject. Christmas is Cotniii, snys the Mttdent to hU chum, and you can see their eyes briphten, their chest expanding, their gait quickening at the thought of the parties they art to attend, the la dies they are roinrr to see the "sweethearts they are oing to ret, for of course everybody is -going to fall in love with them or thetf mous taches. Christmas is con.incr, says the business mdtt. ' and he feels rene ed strencrth at the idea ofWv. iug- his dusty ledgers and spendinj the holidays in the bosom of his family. For them ha toiled fill tlie year, for thetii he has sacrificed hU dearest wishes, for he hm worked day atid night, and now as he thinks of the days he Is going to spend hi their company, free of care, free of the anxiety business is sure to bring, he feels that the coming Christmas days wUHndeed be holy days for him. : Christmas is coming, mumbles the old t?fand father, and he thanks God that he has allowed him to see many a happy Christmas day. He thinks of his childhood's Christmas, when he was hanging out his stocking for Santa Clause to fill, ", he thinks of his youth s Christmas when he was sending in secret, presents, his sweetheart should never know who sent, but who would always be sure to thank him for the very secretness with which thev came, he thinks of his manhood' Christmas, that he spent with his wife, with their family, may be long in the grave, and lastly, he thinks of the coming Christmas, that he is going: to spend with his grand children, and he feels that he has indeed reason to be thankful, that he has lived to see his .grand children enjoy the '. Christinas he so much eiijoytid long ago Christmas is coining, cries rich and poof, young and old, and they all seem to ,be happy at the thought, but the suniest picture has always a shade, and this alas, has one also. .Christmas is ' coming, utters the friendless or phan, and the tears' comes into his eyes as he thinks of the Christmas he used to spend, in his once happy. home. Since then he- has seen the dearest beings he had on earth die and laid in the grave, since then he has seen the friend he valued most, the man for whose fidelity he thought he could pledge his very life fall from him, in ueed, and may be betray him, since thenlie has seen his dearest wishes sacrificed and thrown to the winds, in fact, no Christmas day has dawned for him that did not bring its sorrow, no thing that he. truly loved but withered, and died, or may be flew from him, and now 1 when he thinks of the coining Christinas, he feels that for him there is nof Christmas, no home to go to. no being on earth tht cares how his Christmas is spent, whether lielenjoys himself or not, he feels that he is for tuie's football, to be kicked around the world, till he dies, and then to be buried as a stranger iu hi J own native land. , ' vind reader, have I overdrawn the picture, it mjfv be only Uie that has suffered w hat I havede sciibed, heaven grant it may be so, but if there is oil' panicle of truth in what I have here said, if there is an orpha.ii among yon, cheer him, help, hili, one kind woVd, Hay a kind smile, -extended tofiim may fall like oH' on troubled waters, may m4ke him'thiiik that if he cannot enjoy Christmas' with his loved ones on earth, he may at least, hoe to join them in the keeping of that great hofiday,'in their home in Heaven I j -MiHCclaneouM.
