LEARLY defined 1 shadows were fall ing across the aisle of the old church on the bill, the gray, lonely build ing that had stood there to long, amid sunshine and sha dow, watching, as it were, the peace ful village in the valljy below. Above it the pine trees, greea even in winter, waved their long branches restlessly in the wind and flnng their weird reflections over the snow, the white, soft snow, that oovered all the hillside as with a mantle of palest vel vet. And the day was beginning to close In. to sciead its crray wines over the dim sky and the snow-bound world, lightened only by the warm gleam that came from many a window in the Tillace. The afternoons were short now, said the bustling frauen to eaoh other, as they went about thoir work; but, after all, was it not the eve oi the Christmas feast, and what could one expect? 0 the cottages were warm TJI FAMILY OATWEKWa. tiled stoves crackled and burned away merrily, and few were the footsteps that passed over the snow ontside. As the clock in the tower chimed four, old Johann Maria entered the dimness of the chnroh upon the hill, . where soft red lights shone like far- way stars before the altar. There were ' a few other dark figures already there, kneeling to whisper a prayer at an old oaken prie-dieu. But they looked op es the old man came forward, and fathered together .more closely. He would say the evening litany.pfihapa, and they wonld join in the solemnly . sweet responses, breathing in eaoh heart the names of their dearly loved ones.and committing them to heaven's feafe keeping for the night. 1 VAnd old Johann Maria, as they had expected, kneeling in the soft halo . thnt the lights made, began tho old, : ' old words; that they knew so well, and , that they followed . so earnestly, while the wind wailed outside over the snow on the steep white road. And Amalie and Dorchen and Aide, girls with fair tresses and eyes blue as the, skies oU the Fatherland in the sweet summer time, listened and -prayed in all tht fervor ot youth, and hopefulness and joy. Was not to-morrow the feast of the Christ-child. And had not the sacrist mm and cozy, and the pine logs in tho . . - .;Bl.I .M already, brought beautiful wreaths of berrjed holly and white veined ivy leaves to twine round the carved pul pit and the choir-stalls? Yes, it was a time of joy and gladness,- this Christ mas season, and they were very, very happy. Why not so? Every one was gay and glad at Christmas time, when there where kuchen in toe cottages, and little fir trees laden with presents, and sugar angels to be bought at the shops or the market in the town yon der, to remind them of the great Christmas long ago, when the angels sang over the star-lit fields at Bethle hem. And by and by, that same evening, there would be a great service, when the priest would pray and preach, and they would all listen, oh I so intently. But now there was only the quiet ness ot the little church, with its scent of the freshly-cut boughs, and the quavering, monotonous voioe of Johann Maria repeating the old litany, as be had repeated it so many time before in the same place and in the same accents. There was another girl in the corner, kneeling at her prie-dieu, and whispering the words of the sweet old petitions with white lips and an aching heart. Christmas brought only sor row for her, she said to herself, Ihere was no gladness for her to ezpeot, no loving voice to give her the Christmas crectiner. no tender lips to press her own in that love sweeter than others, even at the season of universal love. No, all was dark and dreary drear, as the shadows that fell upon the white snow ; and while the others re joiced and looked forward to keeping the festival her heart was heavy and ber thoughts roamed bsok, pitilessly, painfully, to a bygone day a day that was marked with the enadow of death. - It was Chrtatmas time again, and the priest had preached and prayed, and given the old beautiful bened.o tion, that floated out like a message from Heaven over the kneeling people over ber lover and herself. Ah I her lover I He had been kneeling by her side then, with the lights flashing on his soldier's coat and his brave, handsome face,, and sho had heard his voioe throughout all tho service, in ringing. dear tonea that she knew and loved bo well,' so trulr and passionately. And she had been so happy, so very very happy, although the thought of the morrow's parting had come even now and then to her heart, witr the throb bing pain of tome sorrowful dream. But he had begged her to forget to forget all the pain of parting for that one day. "Let ns be happy together, sweetheart," be had said, looking into hwr eyes with his own, ah I filled with so much love and tenderness. And she had obeyed him, aa she always would obey the voice that was more to her than lire ifeelf, and they had been happy perfectly, passion ately happy in their great, anfath pmable love. .-' "What is love?" be said to her, as they walked home in the evening, batching the star gleams, like points of diamonds, flash on the dark waters of the Neckar: "What- is love?" he had asked, and she had looked up to the beautiful, grave fas before the answered: "Love is the most perfect and the holiest of friendships, my beloved. It means the merging of one's self into fcnother's being, and the living for an other. It ie based on sympathy, jdeepest and truest, and its keynote is unselfijhness. It is something that (cannot die. for it belong! to God. and ELK IN, N. 0., THURSDAY DECEMBER " : i:naar with her all throngh t,ha feu I DECUBITUS THE IEEE. : is given by Him to ns as the best gill from His Heaven.

Christmas ohimes ringing out from the tower in the distance. And he had stooped and kissed her, kissed hei over and over again with burning kisses that lingered on her lips all through the long long aferwards, when they were parted by a darker. tide than even the swiftly flowing Neckar. That was her dream of Christmas the trvst under the wings of the un geeinar niffht: the words that he had said to her over and over again, " love you! Hove you! I love you I words that she never, never tired oi taurine and that he never tired ot saving; and afterwarla the mirth an musio of the family gathering in tus warm homestead, where Johann Maria told wonderful stories, and Amalie and Dorchen sang tender love lieder or wild ballads ot the mountains.

CTM. - 1 with tears in his blue eyes, and pas sionate pain drawing deep lines on hit pale face, and his love biding a last good-by, while the stars paled and the tardy daylight struggled into the cottage. And, with quivering lips, she had whispered of hope, of their next meeting, of the brave deeds tnal h3 was to do, ot the patient waiting that wonld bring them such joy at last. And he knew that she was right, that his own heart told him the same story, while he kissed his dear, dear love over and over again, murmuring the "Auf wiedersehen" that he knen would bring her comfort. "My heart's beloved, God keep you," ehe said, brokenly, with her sweet arms, for the last time, clinging about hU 'the last good by. neck, and her head pillowed on hit . strong shoulder. And then she had raised her lips to his for the last, long kiss, and it wst over with ber heart's story, told in that one "Auf wiedersehen.' Ah ! the peasant's litany was over, .! ili a ..man It.A rrtna Altfc anftl?. while the rinnle of the girls voicet sounded already some dietance down the hill. Johann Marie had followed them, and the sacristan had brought in great bunch of red holly-berries to decorate the altar. And she must go, too, passing cut into the night once more. Tbey had left her to her own thouuhU, the- happy girls, and she was glad of it. She knew their rympath and loveB them for it and the would be v- tender with her all throngh tha feae, she felt. Even now, perhaps, Amalie was fey r 1 l . t v. inrr "Ann I IDS DOOI uiMMll -Of it not two Christmas festivals siaoe w invar rVtnH in the war?" And the others would look grave for a moment and sigh a soft "Yes.- Ah, it was true. Two long, dim years had passed nway since the skirmishes on the frontier land, where, amid the. dry heather and the dead Draonen, .ney . had told her that ber lover had died. Tin thi waa all. They knew not where his body had been rested ; they knew not whether he bad suffered agony or had parted with his brave soul in the heat of the battle. All was vague, uncertain 5 only her lover was oono from her gono. gone, the knew not where. As she went down the hill road en Hint Christmas Eve alone eome one was waiting under the shadow of the bending Pine trees. Borne one came forward to meet her with a qutok, glad nf irtv and heart's delight.

The Lad v Christum of Childhood Days. "My first thought pf Christmas, Lillie Devereax Blake, "is of the great playroom at my grandmother's. where we ohildren gathered for our evening frolios; of tho fun we had in the warmth and light, while sleet struok its ioy fingers aorosi the win dows or the hoar frost covered the olas with fantastio lines of beauty; of " - - the fauns of those gathered there, o yonng then, that are growing old now tiavA fdded from this world forever, Then there comes a wider vision of the fthriatmas of the world, of the joy bells ringing in many, lands for the feast of love and good will, ot the hearts made happy by the gifts, the kindliness, the good cheer that brings light to the humblest home, so that there is hardly any being so forlorn that some ray of brightness does not reach him. Then yet again, and deeDer. is the reflection of what the festival meant. It if the oelebration pt the eternal mireole of maternity, the wonder ot birth into the activities of this world, that has been in all ages and by all peoples observed at tome period as an oocasion for gladness ; the I welcome those already here give the ' new born soul to the brief, passionate years of human happiness and human despair that we eall life.

The first step in the work of trim ming tho Christmas tree is to taok a square of crash to the floor under the tree. This eaves the carpet from the drippings of numerous candles and the general debris which the disman tling of the tree invariably occasions. The green tab, in which the tree should stand, supported by three cross pieces of pine nailed to the edge to hold it securely in place, is almost sure to be in the housewife's posses- Conceal this by a covering of white cotton batting, dusted thickly with coarsely powdered mioa to re semble snow, saya the Philadelphia Tress. Or cover it with imitation green moss, which can be obtained at the shops at a trifling cost Jne latter is really the better plan. It is aim pier, cleaner and more effective. The newest conoeits lor tree deoora- tions are artificial frnits and vegeta hie, which are onnnlngly devised. Tied to the tree with bright ribbons, they form a pleasing contrast to the green foliage. Fairies, dressed in wonderful gowns of brigut colored paper, looped with narrow bebe rib bon are bought at a low figure. Santa Clans, who should, without fail, crown the ton. in not an expensive addition. In lighting the tree, modern soienoa comes Btrongly to thd fore. If there are electrio lights in the house, an at tachment is easily made, whereby the tree can be lighted with liny incande scent bulbs of different colors. In case tho house is without eleotrio lights, a storage battery may be ob tained at moderate cost. From this the same results are secured. This modern style of illumination removes the old-time danger of the tree eaten ng fire from its lights, but it is also open to the objection of dispelling the romantio glow which came from in numerable candles. So the great ma jority of people still prefer the can dles, whioh seem to be a part 01 ue Yuletide. For convenience in distributing the gifts, it is a good plan to place on each gift a number, while the mistress of the ceremonies keeps a written 11st of each member of the household, r.Uh (heir oorresnonding check. The distribution is usually made by the child or children for whose enjoyment the tree is arranged. The Joys of Christmas.

The superstitions of Christmas are more numerous even than the observ ances which owe their origin to heath enish rites.
