CHRISTMAS EVE.

The children dreamed the who ole night through
Of stockings hung the hearth beside;
And, bound to make each dream come true,
Went Santa Claus at Christmas tide.
Black stockings. red, brown, white and gray
Long, little, warm, or patched and thin
The kindly saint found out his way,
And, smiling, popped his presents in.
But as he felt his hoard grow light.
A tear-drop %glistened in his eye:
'More children ON this earth tonight, s.rWazTT,
Than stars are twinkling in the sky"
Upon the white and frozen snow
He knelt, his empty bag beside
"Some little socks must empty go,
Alas!"-said he--'this Christmas-tid
Though | their stockings may not heap
With gifts and toys and Christmas cheer,
Those4ittle ones from sorrow keep;
For each, dear Lord, to Thee IL dear!
Thou vert n little child like them
Prayed he-''For whom 1 would provide
Long years ago in Bethlehem,
That first and blessed Christmas tide!
''As soothed Thee then Thy mothers kiss.
And all her comfort, sweet and kind,
So give them love, lest they may miss
The gifts l know not whore to find!
'"Thnt sweetest gift, denr Lord, bestow
On all the children far and wide;
And give them hearts as pure as snow
Prayed ! anita Ciaus-"at Christmas tide!"
