ABOUT A MAGICIAN.

ABOUT A MAGICIAN.
Oh, there is a Magician that know.
AS strange as Hermann is "But HE can wiring
A white birds neck off in the market, though,
Then-put it on and tell the bird to sing,
And fly like anything!
''What can he do?' just wait and watch him pass,
And you shall see, think, what you shall see.
The pretty baby, creeping in the grass,
Will be a naughty boy, and climb tree,
If he goes by-ah me!
Why, men and women in his path will rise
Yes, of the dust. or nothing. they are made.
We see them in the sun with real eyes,
And, while we look at them, he makes them fade
To ghosts You are afraid?
Then, he can pass the guards in any light,
And take the palace and the king away.
He has not gone to sleep single night
For many million years-some people say
Nor rested for day!
We cannot kill hm-though we sometimes try;
He kills lis all Yes, and the soldiers too!
Seas are not deep enough to drown him. L
Have heard that fire is-what he passes through.
Look! he is changing you!
Why, in little while you will not be
Yourself! And then What will he change you to,
Poor. yellow-headed child here at my knee
Waiting to hear foolish story through?

| then"
l"Dear Jesus, look down on my brother and me,
And grant US the favor we're asking of Thee:
1 want wax dolly, tea-set and ring,
And an ebony worll-box that shuts with spring.
Bless papa, dear Jesus and cause him to see
That Santa Claus loves us far better than he;
Don't let him get fretful and angry again
At dear brother Willie and Annie, amen!"
'Please Desus 'et Santa Taus come down tonight,
And bring us some presents before it is light,
II want he should give me nice little sed,
With bright, shiny runners, and all painted yed;
A box full of tandy, book and toy,
Amen, and then, Desus I'll be good boy"
Their prayers being ended they raised up their heads
And with hearts light and cheerful again sought their
beds;
They soon lost in slumber-both peaceful and deep
And with fairies in dreamand were roaming in Sleep
Eight nine and the little French clock had struck ten
Ere the father had thought of his children again;
He seems now to hear Anne's suppressed sighs
And to see the big tears stand in WiIes blue eyes,
Il was harsh with my darlings" he mentally said,
And should not have sent them so early to bed;
But then was troubled-Iny feelings found vent,
For bank stock to-day has gone down ten per cent
But of course they've forgot their troubles ere this
But then denied them the thrice asked for kiss;
But just to make sure I'll steal up to their door,
ForI never spoke harsh to my darlngs before"
$50 saying he softly ascended the stairs,
And arriving at their door heard both of their prayers
His Annies "bleSs papa" draws forth the big tears
And Wile's grave promise falls sweet on his ears
srange, strange I've forgotten them" said he with
sigh.
"How longed when child TO have Christmas draw
nigh,
III atone for my harshness," he inwardly said,
"By answering their prayers, sleep my bed.H
Then he turned to the stairs and softly went down,
Threw of velvet slippers and silk dressing-gown
Donned hat coat and boots and out in the street
A millionaire facing the cold, driving sleet;
Nor stopped he until he had bought everything
From a box full of candy to tiny gold ring
Indeed, he kept adding so Liuch to his store
That the various presents outnumbered a score;
Then homeward he turned with his holiday load
And with Aunt Mary's aid in the nursery twas slowed
Miss Dolly was seated beneath apine tree,
By the side of table spread out for tea;
a work-box well filed in the center was laid,
And on it a ring for which Annie had prayed;
A soldier in uniform stood by sled
With bright shining runners all painted red;
There were balls dogs and horses books pleasing to see
And birds of all colors were perched in the tree;
While Santa Claus, laughing, stood up in the top
AS If getting ready more presents to drop

Twas the before Christmas; "ood night" had been
said,
And Annie and Willie had crept into bed:
There tears their pillows and their eyes
And each little bosom was heavy with sighs
For tonight their stern fathers command had been given
That they must retire precisely at seven
Instead Of eight; for they troubled him more
With questions unheard of than ever before.
He told them he thought this delusion sin,
No such thing as Santa Claus" ever had been,
And he hoped, after this he should never more hear
How he scrambled down chimneys with presents each
year.
And this is the reason two little heads
So restlessly tossed on their soft, downy beds.
Eight nine and the clock on the steeple toled ten
Not word had been spoken by either till then;
When Willies sad face from the blanket did peep,
And whispered, "Dear Annie, is you fast asleep?"
'Why, no, brother Willie, ," sweet voice replies,
I've tried it in vain, but can't shut my eyes;
For somehow it makes sorry because
Dear papa had said there is no Santa Claus;
Now we know there is, and it can't be denied,
For he cana every year before mamma died;
But then I've been thinking that she used to pray,
And God would hear everything mamma would say,
And perhaps she asked him to send Santa Claus here
With the sacks full of presents he brought every year,
''Wel, why tant we pay dest as mamma did then,
And ask him to send him with presents aden?"
"Ive been thinking so, too" and without word
Four bare little feet bounded out on the floor,
And four little knees the soft carpet pressed,
And two tiny hands were clasped close to each breast

And as the fond father the picture surveyed
He thought for his trouble had amply been paid;
And he said to himself as he brushed off a tear,
l"I'm happier tonight than have been for a year
I've enjoyed more true pleasure than ever before,
What care if bank stock falls ten per cent. more
Hereafter I'll make it a rule, believe
To have Santa Claus visit us each Christmas eve"
So thinking he gently extinguished the light
And tripped down stairs to retire for the night.
As soon as the beams of the bright morning sun
Put the darkness to flight and the stars one by one
-Four little blue eyes out of sleep opened wide
And at the same moment the presents espied,
Then out Of their beds they sprang with bound
And the very gifts prayed for all of them found
They laughed and they cried in their innocent gee
And shouted for papa to come quick and see
What presents old Santa Claus had brought in the night
Just the things what they wanted and left before light

"Youl believe there's Santa Claus, papa know"
While dear little Willie climbed up on his knee
Determined no secret between them should he,
And told, in soft whispers, how Annie had said

Used to knee down and pray by the side of her chair
And that God in heaven had answered her prayer;
"Then we dot up and prayed dust well tould,
And bod answered our prayers wasn't he doodP"
