A Grecian Legend.

Wheu Bacchus was a boy he Journeyed
through Hellas to 60 to Naxla, and as the way
was very long, he grew tired and sat down
upon stone to rest. AS he sat there,
with his eyes upon the ground, he saw
a little plant spring up between his feet,
and was so much pleased with It that
he determined to take it with him and plant II
10 Naxia He took it up aud carried it away
with him; but, as the sun was very hot, he
feared it might wither before he reached his
destination lie found birds skeleton, into
which he thrust 1t, and went on. But 10 his
hand the plant sprouted SO fast that 1t started
out of the bones above and below. TEls gave
him fresh fear of its whitening, and he cast
about for a remedy. He found a lion s
bone, which was thicker than the bird S
skeleton, and be stuck the skeleton, with
the plant in it, into the bone Of the lion.
Ere long, however, the plant grew out OF
the lion bone, likewise Then he found the
bone of an ass, larger still than that Of the
lion. So he put the lions, containing the
birds skeleton and the plant, into the
ASS BONE and thus be made his way to
Naxia. When about to set the plant. be
found that the roots had entwiued them
selves around the birds skeleton, aud
the lions bone, and the ASS bone and,
as he could not take it out without daDag-
iug the roots, he planted it as it was, and 1t
came up speedily, and bore to his great JOY the
most delicious grapes, from which be made the
first vine, aud gave it to men TO drink But
behold a miracle When men drank Of it, they
first sang like birds; next, after drinking little
more, they became nervous and gallant like
lions but when they drank more still, they be-
gan to behave like asses.

CHRISTMAS Again We are spared to wei
come the coming Christmas. What heart SO
sad, what life so owly, that thought OF cheer
and of joy does not tighten the load when we
feel that Christmas is present. Christmas
meetings ard greetings keep up the memories
of home which might, perhaps Wlther without
the freshness of thought impaired at such re-
unions
To children, Christmas is an especial de-
light. Already young hearts beat joyously
at the thought of the approaching festival.
Already the bright eyes grow brighter, and the
innocent lips of happy childhood culver and
ripple into smile as they see mysterious
packages at the door The Christmas tree
ueeds 10 descriptive touches from our pen.
Already the hours are being counted, until the
moment arrives when the earnest young faces
can catch sight of the treasures that load the
green boughs, aad the show they have been
looking forward TO for weeks
In the happiness of Christmas reJ'lclngs,
let us remember the poor We have always
With us. Il must be, indeed, cold and
narrow heart that cannot, at this happy, glad
season, become warm, and open as blossom
in spriag time, to help the poor, cheer the
mouruful, and make happy the dear ones OF
Of the domestic circle, by gifts, according to
our means, and congratulations and k1ud
words, as our hearts prompt,-are not these
euioyments the bread Of life ADD the wine Of
love that strengthen the best energies OF the
soul
TO our readers aud friends we would offer
our heartiest well wishes for their prosperity
at this happy season and may the closing days
be a precursor of happier and more prosperous
days 10 the new year upon which we are about
to enter. -Inar7Ioro' (Md) Gazette.
