A CHRISTMAS OFFERING.

/ told him, Christmas morning.
As he sat upon my knee,
Holding fast his little stockings,
Stuffed as full as they could be,
And attentive listening unto me,
With face demure and mild,
That Old Santa Clause, who filed them,
Did not love a naughty child.
" But we'll be good, won't we mother ?"
Bnd from of my lap he slid,
Digging deep among the goodies
In the crimson stocking hid;
While l turned me to my table,
Where tempting goblet stood,
Brimring high with dainty egg-nog,
Sent me by neighbor good.
But the kitten there before me,
With his white mouth nothing 10th,
Sat, by way of entertainment,
Lapping off the shining froth
And not in the gentlest humor,
AT the loss of such treat,
I confess ] rather rudely
Thrust him out into the street.
Then how Benny's blue eyes kindIed,
Gathering up his precious store,
He had busily been pouring
In his tiny pinafore.
With generous look that shamed me,
Spra1g he from the carpet bright,
Showing by his mein indignant,
All baby's sense of right.
"Come back, Harvey - cried he loudly.
As he held his apron white-
g You shall have my candy wabbit p
But the door was fastened tight;
So he stood abashed and silent,
In the center of the floor,
With defeated look alternate
Bent on me and at the door.
Then, as by some sudden impulse,
Ran he quickly to the fire,
And while eagerly his bright eyes
Watched the flames so higher and higher,
In brave clear key he shouted,
Like some lordly little eli,
a. Santa Claus, come down de chimney
Make my mother have herselfr'
q I viii be COED girl. Benny
Said |, feeling The reproof,
And straightyay recalled poor Haraey,
Mewing on the gallery roof
Soon the anger was forgotten,
Laughter chased away the frown,
And they gamboled meath the live oaks
Till the dusky dawn came down.
In my dim fre-lighted chamber,
uarney purred beneath my chair,
And my play-worn boy beside me
Knelt to say his evening prayer
"God bless fader-God bless moder-
God bless sister"-then a pause,
And the sweet young lirs devoutly
Murmured, God bless Santa Clausr'
He is sleeping-brown and siiken
Lie the lashes, long and meek,
Like earressing, clinsing shadows
On his plump and peaehy cheek;
And bend above him weeping
Thankful tears-0h, indebted;
For woman's crowning glory,
For the blessing of a child.
