The old adage that severything comes to him

case of the editor of America AS far as the irish
onestiop is concerned, he is not one OF the waiting
kind But the Irish controversy over Mr.. Parnell
turned up just in time to put toothsome morsel
into his Christmas stocking, and his delight over
the gift of Old Santa Claus is truly refreshing.

nal contains New Years greetings to the women

That the ambitious may find new and solidly-

That those who wish more education may be

That mothers wives, sisters and sweethearts NAV

That those of my sisters who wish to vote.

That as many Of the women as their environ

Will Heaven Be Conventional?

a very frigidity Of splendor, where people stand
on cold formalities and 60 round about with heavy
crowns Of gold on their heads No, that is not
my idea of Heaven. My idea of Heaven is more
like this: You are seated in the svening-tide bv
the fireplace, your whole family there, or nearly
all OF them there. While you are seated talking
and enjoying the evening hour there is knock at
the door and the door opens, and there comes in
brother that has been long absent. He has bean
absent for years; you have not seen him, and NO
sooner do you make up your mind that it is GER
talnly he than you leap up, and the question is
who shall give him the first embrace? That is nv
idea of Heaven; a great home-crce where thew
are waiting for u.s. Oh! Will you not know your
mothers voice there? She who always called YOU
by your first name long after Others have given YOU
the formal "Mister" Will you not know YOUR
chds voice? She, of the bright eye and the
quiet step, who came in from play and flung her
self into your lap, very shower of mrth and
beauty! Why, the picture is craven in your soul;
it cannot wear out. If that little one should stand
on the other side Of sore heavenly hill and call to
you, you would hear her voice above the burst Of
Heavens great orchestra. Know it? You could
not help but know it.
No, NO! DO not tell me that Heaven is stiff and
formal Sweet Heaven You do not spell Heaven
as you USED TO spell it. You used to spell it
Heaven, Heaven. But now when YOU want to
spell that word, you place side by side the faces
OF the loved ones who are gone, and in that ira
dlatlon of light and love, and beauty and joy, you
spell it out as never before-in songs and halle
