MR.. CH1RRUP's CHRISTMAS
BY HELEN WHITNEY CLARK.

Mr.. Chirrup was glum. Any one
else, any one with a less amiable
disposition, that is, would have been
Gross under the same provocatlon.
But Mr.. Chlrrup was never cross, and
he was seldom "gl"m."
However, when it comes to the day

BILE for being glum.
So. at least, thought Mr.. Chirrup, as
he sat looking out of the window Of
Lawyer Ledgerly's office, where he wa,
employed at by-no-means-extravagan
salary. Lawyer Ledgerly was ill-toc
ill to be seen," his mother-in.law
said. So there was no hope Of ahtici
pating his next quarters salary, as he
had sometimes done on similar pressing
occasions.
For Mr.. Chirrup's salary was SC
small and his family SO large, it was
not much wonder there was usually
some difficulty in making the salary
stretch from one quarters end to the
other.
AL these things Mr.. Chirrup pom.
dered as he sat looking out of the win
dow in Lawyer Ledgerly's Office, which

Mr.. Chirrup was about to pinch HIM

FERROUS corner came Mr.. Rothschild CHR

all! "Merry Christmas, Brother Ca

vances toward truce. But since you
will remain adamant ! concluded to
make them myself. So let by-goncs
be by-gones, ii you are willing, and let
us lie friends hereafter, as we'll as
brothers"
Then, turning TO the table, lie held
up the fat turkey, turning it round and
round, just as lie had done in the mar
ket.
"a fine fellow, isn't he? got the
biggest I could find in the market, Oh
purpose for you, he added. And the
pot of flowers is peace-otfering to my
sister-in-law, if she will accept he
added, while Caleb still looked OH, half
dazed.
And the children's stockings were not
destined to hang empty after all, that
Christmas Eve.
And better Christmas dinner, or q
jollier party to eat it, was not found
anywhere that Christmas Day, for Mr..
Rothschild Chirrup proved to be an old
bachelor, and so very willingly accepted
an invitation to dine at his brothers.
And Miss Chirrup's sister, Miss Melissa,
being an old maid, she and Mr.. Roths-
child very romantically fell in love with
each other, and when another Christ
mas day came around, Mr. Rothschild
was no longer bachelor, and Miss
Melissa no longer an old maid.
And when Lawyer Lelgcrly grew

obliged to provide himself with another
clerk, as Mr.. Caleb had gone into part
nership with his brother in the mercan-
tile business.

The Christmas Sentiment.

The genealogy of Luke in making
Jesus "the son of Adam, who was the
son of God" strikes the keynote OF
Christmas. It sets Him forth as the
blood-relation of every man, in whom
and through whom the brotherhood of
man becomes a beneiicent fact. The
underlying sentiment of Christmas,
which, consciously OF unconsciously, its
good cheer and kindly spirit express,
is that as all men are brethren, none
should be shut out from the joyousness
Of the gleesome day.
But until the Head of the new hu.
mainly appeared on earth. that idea,
which eighteen centuries have made u

made natural death of no account in
contrast with that glorious life, begun

made visible.
He was born in an empire where tie

Mr.. Chirrup-our Mr.. Chirrup this
time-came as near sneering as he had
ever done in his life, when the turkey
disappeared in his brothers basket.
For bitter infringement had existed
between the two brothers from time
immcmorial-or tllereabout.
mo doubt he can buy turkeys" said
Mr.. Chirrup-Caleb, his name was.
"No doubt he can buy turkeys, and
celery, too" For a big bunch OF
celery, large enough for winter
bouquet, had followed the mammoth,
turkey to its hiding place.
And if there's one thing like bet
ter than another, it's celery" thought
Mr.. Caleb Chirrup, trying very hard
to look grabbed and revengeful, but
not succeeding very we'll. However,
he did manage to look quite savage
and rcsentful for him, which is saw.
ing good deal.
Mr.. Rotchschild, in the meantime,
pursued the even but pompous tenor
of his way through the crowd which
jostled him on every side. Now and
then he stopped at the best filled stalls,
and added relays of vegetables and
other articles to the contents of his
roomy basket, punches of rich bananas,
dozens of golden-rinded oranges and
lemons, "scads" of candies and cakes,
and other indigestible compounds also
disappeared in the same ample recep-
tacle.
"Humph! I trust the little Roths-
childs have well-seasoned stomachs to
dispose Of all that trash," thought Mr..
Caleb. sarcastically. Though in reality
he could not have told whether his
brother was q bachelor or Benedict,
80 long had been the feud between
them. And then Mr.. Caleb Chirrup's
humble abode was many, many blocks
removed from the aristocratic precincts
of "West End" where his brother re-
sided.
The elder Chirfup-for Mr.. Roths-
child was the elder-seemed ut last to
have completed his purchase of edi-
bles, and paused in front of flower
stall, where he selected pot of Grim.
son and white chrysanthemums.
"The very pot" thought Mr.. Caleb,
glumly, "that t picked out over a
month ago, as Christmas present for
poor Patty"
"Poor Patty" was Mr.. Caleb's wife.
Mr.. Rothschild, however, deposited
his purchase in his basket, and trudged
away in blissful ignorance Of the shah.
