to Father Christmas, however, grandpa and
grandma made two funny mistakes. Grand

grandma, feeling too warm, it must be pre-

of the fire. 1t took patcr quite couple of

and followed by wonderful old gentleman
in marvellous attire, who. even by the light
of the low gas jets and the tlickering fire. was
easily recognized as Father Christmas him
self
Truly he was a remarkable sight. He had
a jolly red old face, and such twinkHng,
merry eyes! He wore a long white beard,
which almost covered his broad, crimson
waistcoat. His ample white hair was sur
mounted by crown of holly loaded with
berries, and toys peeped out from every
pocket Of his long green coat. He carried in
his right hand stout staff covered with
thick ivy. He laughed all round as he sat
down, until everyone laughed again, and he
said: "A Merry Christmas and & Happy
New Icar!' in such big, hearty voice that
they shouted: THE same to you, Father
ChristmaS.' with one accord. He beckoned
the servants to place the parcels on the
table in front OF him. and, pressing some
thing in their hands which made them say:
"A Merry Christmas to you, sir" motioned
them out.
Then he hesitatcd and began TO mop his
face with Il big silk handkerchief, as if he
hardly knew how to begin. There could be
no doubt that, as pater and grandpa said, he
was somewhat ditiident and nervous SO
pater got up and made another little speech
such as no one else could make. Some OF it
made them laugh, and some of it made them

in the street became so interesting that he
took prolonged look out of the window,
whilst pater sketched an elaborate diagram
upon his blotting-pad.
However, pater must have cheered Tom
up good deal in the course of the day, for
they left the Office together in high spirits.
They made mysterious and prolonged visit
to fancy dress emporium and one or two
other places. and then they stuck big cigars
in their mouths, and actually went off and
played a couple OF hundred at billiards
pater's annual dissipation, as he called it,.
After this they went to the booking office
at st. Paul's station to collect half Il van
load of parcels; and finally dispersed at
Dulwich with cabful apiece. 1t was
noticeable that Tom had grown very cheer
full since the morning, and pater arrived
home so full of jokes and merriment that
even Aunt Agge had to smile
Then the real business OF the day began.
There were the nicces and nephews to visit,
with presents; there were the Christmas
boxes to the servants, the parcel-bringers,
and all sorts and conditions OF men and
women-for pater didn't believe in waiting
till boxing day. There was the final stirring
of the Christmas pudding, a solemn annual
rite, under the superintendent of cook, at
which each member of the household was eN-
pected to be present. After this the chill
dren went to bed, and the onerous functions

And let me take thy hand and lead thee

OF Gods great jewels have I for thy

woke at five, and filed the house with yclls
of rapturous excitement when they saw the
array OF toys in and around their bloated
stockings. But wise nurse had lit the gas
stove in the nursery, so that they could play
there during the small hours without dis
turbing everyone else; and excepting that
Roy took a header off the new rocking horse,
and Dot warmed wax dolls nose tlitle
too much at the fire, no harm was done.
Pater was, as usual on such occasions, Il
fourth child, and the youngsters were in
high glee all the morning.
Then grandpa and grandma came, bring
ing presents for all the older ones-it being
understood that they had been somehow in
league with Santa Claus as regards the
children. And everyone had present for
them, even the little ones, whose pennies
had been remarkably productive in pater' 5
hands.
The dinner was Al, the pudding in par

called in for special compliment, and nearly

thing was so jolly that it really did seen,

And joy in the by-andby,
