had told him Christmas morning,
As he sat upon my knee,
Holding fast bis little stoc kings,
Stuffed as full as full could be,
And attentive listening to me,
With a face demure and mild,
That old Santa Claus, who filed them,
Did not love naughty child.
3" But We'll be good, won't we moths1H'
And nom OF my lap he slid,
Digging deep among the goodies
In his crimson stockings hid
While l turned me TO nv table,
Where tempting goblet stood,
brimming high with dainty egg-nog,
Sent me by neig hbor good.
But the kitten, there before me,
With his white paw, nothing 10th,
Sat, by the way Of entertainment,
Shaping off the shining froth;
And In not the gentlest humor
At the loss Of such treat,
l confess, j rather rudely
Thrust him out into the street.
Then, how Beuny's blue eye kindled
Gathering up the precious store
He had busily been pouring
In his tiney pianafore.
with generous look that shamed me,
Sprang he from the carpet bright,
showing, his mien indignant
All baby's sense Of hight.
"Coms back, Harvey >" called he, loudly,
AS he held his apron white
You shall have my Candy wabbit"'
But the door was fastened tight;
So be stood abashed and silent,
In the center Of the foor,
With defeated look alternate
Bent on me and on the door.
Then, as by some sudden impulse,
Quickly ran he TO the fire,
And while eagerly his bright eyes,
Watched the flames go high and higher,
In q brave, clear key he shouted,
Like some lordly little elf,
"Sant Klaus, come down the chimney,
Make my moder have herself.
ON be a good girl, Benny"
said l., feeling the reproof;
And straightway called poor Harvey,
Mewtug on the gallery roof.
Soon The anger was forgotten,
laughter chased away the frown,
And they gambolled meath the live oaks
Till the dusty night came down.
In my dim, fire lighted chamber,
Harvey purred beneath nv chsir,
And my play worn boy beside me,
Knelt TO say his evening prayer:
4" Sod hess Fader-6od be Moder,
God bess Sistef-then pause,
And the sw ct young lips devoutly
Murmured, God bess Santa Klaus so
He isslseping brown and silken
Lie the lashes, long and meek,
Like carressing, clinging shadows
On his plump and pearhey chesk;
And bend alb we him, weeping
Thankful fears-Oh, indebted
Por woman's crown Of glorv,
For the blessing Of a child
