Oh, bells Thal chime your sweetestl Oh, world of glistening white! Oh, breezes blithely bringing A message of delight! From leafless hill and valley But one refrain I hear: "A merry, merry Christmas And a glad New Year!"
From humble home and palace The kindly voice Is breathed, From forest arch and pillar. And meadows snowy wreathed. An echo from the angels. A pan of good cheer: Hark! "Merry, merry Christmas And a gid New Year!'
Oh, light of heavenly gladness That falls upon the earth!
Oh . rapture of thanksgiving That tells the Savlour's birth! The golden links of kindness Dring heart to heart more near, With "a merry, merry Christmas And & glad New Year!" -George Cooper, In Golden Days.
A Christmas Mamma
By M. B. Bell.
It was one of those dreary afternoona la November. The rain had fallen steadily all day, and Roland and Esther Grahm, two motherless little children. were curled up on the rug in front of the library fire, looking at the picture book.
Their nurse, who was a kind-bearted woman, bad frequently explained the stories in the book to them. And now. with their little heads bent down over the page, they were looking at the pic- ture of two little girls in bed, while a woman with a gentle, motherly face, was tucking them in. Nurse had told the children a long story about this picture, what dear little ones they were, and how loving and kind their mother was to lhem.
"I wish we had a mother to tuck us in and talk to us when the rainy days come, and we can't go out," said Ro- land, sitling up straigbt and pusbing tbe book away from him wearily.
"I'm tired looking at picture moth- ers. Christmas is soon coming, and I'm going to pray and ask God to send us a real mother, what we can talk to. Theu, oh! mashe papa will buy us a mother if we give him the money."
"I'se got no money," said little Esther. "I spent it all for Mary Jane. and now she's broke and you'll have all the new mamma and Essie'll be so lone- some," and the little girl began to ery. "Oh. Essie, what you crying for? 1 haven't any more money than you have. but I thought God wouldn't care if this year we bought a mamme with our Christmas money. 'cause we's just as poor without a mamma as those poo: childrea.“
Mr. Grahm was a little later thati usual that evening, and somehow for- got to send for the little ones; but sa: before the fire thinking of Dora Lyn. hurst, a little girl he had knowa in his boybood, and to whom he had one! been engaged, but a misunderstanding had separated them, and hit had aftrt- ward married a slight, delicate girl. who, dying the third year after their marriage. had left him with the cure of their two children.
That morning an old friend had tult: him that Dora, who had never morrieil. but had been abroad several years, hal at last returned, and he felt un intense desire to see her again. It was with a strong feeling of self-reproach that he sprang from his chair when he heard the little ones at the door, and with more than his usual warmth he greet- ed them, for they were very dear le him.
Mr. Grahm anw at once that some. thing was on their little minds. "What Is it. Roland?" he asked, drawing the little fellow to him. "You and Eather look as though you had something te
"Yes, papa, we want you to please huy us a mamma for Christmas." "Why. isn't your father enougb, lit- tle chicks ?"
Ī "Ob! yes, papa, but Essie and thought, if instead of putting onr money in the envelopes this year we gave it to you. you might buy us a mother to tuck us in bed at night aud talk to us when you are out."
" "Gause we're dreadful lonesome at times." chimed in Esther.
The tears came lo the father's eyes in spite of himself at his rhiklren's strange request, and he thought if Dora had grown to be as sweet a woman as she hade fair to he she would be the very mother these little children so earnestly longed for.
"Here's the money." said Esther, pressing up rlosely against her f'it- ther and putting the coins into his hand. "If you have any more you can just give them to the poor chil- dren."
Mr. Grabm could not repress smile that came lo his lips at the children's iden of the value of a few pennies they had saved. "Well, lit- tle ones, you run off to hed now, and after supper ] will go out and try to find her."
Mr. Grahm must have found it rath- er difficult to find the mother. At any rate, it took him ont very often. and finally he told the childreu that if they wanted a mother he would have to go away for a few days. The children consented reluctantly, "he- cause it would be more lonesome than ever without papa. and mothers seemed dreadful hard things to buy.' Roland confided to Esther.
"Papa will not be away so long. after all."
