Grandfather Lickshingle's Christmas
Story.

Grandfather Lickshingle called the
children around him the other night and
said
"Well, my little Solid Mouldouns, you
want to hear beautiful Christmas story,
do you? And so you shall, my pretty
dears," and he chucked each dimpled
chin.
"Seve1al years ago this very evenin'

YOU better idea of the severity of the
weather, will state that street-peddler
mounted a goods box on the street cor
ner and offered corn medicine for sale
which he said was positive cure If taken
regularly three times day before each
meal A storekeeper on the opposite
corner threw an egg at the peddler.
The egg froze solid as a rock while
crossin' the street, and crushed the ped
dler's skull. | was foreman of the jury,
and we brought in a verdict of death
from exposure. But this has nothing to
do with the story, which is a tale OF
yule-tide. Fitz-Clarence Duzenberry
passed along the street, his false teeth
chattering with the cold. He met his
sweetheart and her mother, and, for
gettin' his bald head and the state OF
the weather, lifted his hat. The bald
spot was exposed only for moment,
but the fatal work was done. The bald
spot froze harder than the ace of spades.
Fitz-Clarence did not know any thing
was the matter until he got home and
sat down before hot fire. Then he
began to thaw out on top Of his head,
and in fifteen minutes he was dead

boldly walked forward and pressed a
bank-note into the wretched creatures
hand. He looked from it to me in dazed
amazement, then the sight of one of his
ragged children seemed to make him
realize what the money would do. He
clutched it closer, and with one last
look down the open grave, he crept
across the bogs toward his home.
BY whose hand the corpse was con-
veyed from the churchyard to the bog
was never discovered. 1t was general
" believed, however, that news of the
intended examination had been whis-
pered abroad, and that the agent was
exhumed and hidden solely with view
to preventing his body being 80 cut up"

Having sworn Shawn tosecrecy, as
sisted hrm to re-inter the box, and forth
with sent word of the discovery to the
magistrate. The box was at once re-
moved, the post-mortem examination
concluded, and the discovery made that
the unfortunate man had died of heart
disease. Again every body was amazed,
and this time the wonder was mixed
with shame. After the examination was
made, the Coroner's inquiry was hur-
