bits in fees last year, and Whitfield away
three dollars worth Of wood. His knife
is neither sharp nor dull. 1t Is like his
mind--surprisingly dull over the straight
est grain questions, but wonderfully
keen when knotty pIoblems get in the
way. He breaks of piece Of wood
with bis stampy fingers, ana sits on the
edge of the sidewalk as if he had come
to stay; and why should he not stay
since he has all the time there is, and
can do nearly os much business there on
the sidewalk as in his little temple of
justice bard by? Before proceeding to
whittle be thinks it oyer a long, long
time, and turns the stick end for end
aud end for end again. Finally, break
ing into low, soft whistliug of good old
Coronation, or "PleyePs Hymn" be
cuts notch in one end of TIE stick, and
half listening TO the gossip of bis fellow
villagers, he goes on whistling and whit
Il 'ng, whiting and whistling,
Now and then he slices long, even
shaving from the stick, aud squints along
the sarface to see if it is strai hit. Theu
he sits and looks at the wood and thinks
and thinks and thinks. What will he
make of that stick? Simply nothing, He
will squint along its sides and make il
as level as the villagers suppose his head
to be, and he will smooth it down unit
it is as glossy as the elbows of his coat
But after all, he will have only a smooth
straight stick. Does it symbolize his
thoughts? Is he sitting on the edge o.
that sidewalk dreaming of the straight
path that leads to the New Jerusalem
and reminding himself that, notwith
standing the gloss of varnish on the
tortuous paths of vice, the straight way
Is the smoothest way? Nobody knows

CHRISTMAS CAROL.


Into the silent waiting East
There cometh a shining line
Far, far,
Through dull gray bar
Closing oyer a dying star
That watched away the night
Rise, rise, shine and glow,
over wide white world of snow,
Son of the Christmas tide! 10
Out OF the Northland bleak and bare,
wind with royal roar,
Fly, fly,
Through the broad arched sky,
Flutter the snow, aud rattle aud cry
At every silent door
Loud, loud, till the children hear,
Aud meet the day with ringing cheeri
"Hall to the Christmas tide"
Out of the four great gates of day
A tremulous music swells;
Hear, hear,
How sweet aud clear,
Oyer and under and far and near,
A thousand happy bells;
JOY, joy, aud jubilee!
Good will to men from sea to sea,
This merry Christmas-tide!
Iol in the homes Of every land
The children reign to day;
They alone,
With our hearts their throne,
And meyer scepter but their own
Small hands to rule and sway!
Peace, peace-the Christ child's love
Flies over the world, a white, whi
dove
This happy Christmas.tide!
