Once upon time there lived at place
called Rambia, in Germany, poor weaver,
who was good and religious man, blessed
with a truly Christian wife, and many dear
children. Their youngest and favorite
child was little maiden eli ght years old,
whom they had named Christina. Now she
was not only beautiful, but very good and
obedient also; and her mind was fixed on
heaven, so that her childish understanding
was prompt to take in high and holy thoughts,
and never forgot what had once been ex-
planned to her respecting them. Her great
est delight was to hear the Bible read, and
she could learn verses out of her hymn-book
by heart much easier than any thing else.
Little Christina was very quiet child, and
kept much to herself; so that when the
warm days of springs and summer came, she
could play for weeks together in the garden,
without even wishing for any other play
fellows than the flowers and trees, or the
little birds that sang in the branches
With them the child would play and chat
ter, as if they had been living people ; and
at sunset she always returned to the house
with cheerful and happy face, and hav-
ing eat a piece of bread and butter for
supper, folded her little hands In prayer
to God, and then fell into deep and peace
full slumber.
Now it happened one evening, when the
child came into the cottage as usual, she
carried something in her apron. She fol-
ded her apron closely up so that no one
could see what was in it and bid her bro
theirs and sisters guess what it might be,
and her mother was asked too but no one
could tell what it was. And when Chris
tina bad waited long time and saw they
would not try to guess, her patience gave
. way, and she exclaimed
well, then, look here, l must unfold my
riddle and she shook her apron as she
spoke and out dropped pretty snow-wbitC
chicken with speckled tuft on its head
Then her mother wondered where Christi
ma could have got the chicken. But sh'
f said;
s IL cannot tell where the chicken cam
e from. 1t came up to me in the garden, ant
hoped upon my lap, and played with m

1t have been sad pity if it had starved t
