Friend Rip, we have always found
9Td1tdS ooRteurS, pitinS f0iSeurS and
believe you to be no exception not
withstanding your claim to be grGHd
homme. True it is, that there may
be some more astute than others,
yet we are not so stupid and dull as
to let the great musical prodigy and
physical mOnstrOsity of Sleepy Hol-
low copy unnoticed the advertise
ments and literary productions of
others and claim them as products of
his siXty-four ounce brain, while he
may have sense enough not to try to
tickle Il mules heels with his gold
tuning fork, and to get out of the way
of a locomotive, he has certainly
shown lack of judgment and sense in
copying Mr.. William Frederick's ad-
vertisement and claiming it as a pro-
duction of his moss covered brain.
His vocabulary is very meager, and
his reputation as a critic, musician
and writer is unenviable, in fact the
poor fellows education is so limited
that he has never been able to realize
that the greater world is outside of
his limited horizon.
He speaks in his last communication
of my cOnceivably small brain, and it
may be smaller than his, and no
doubt is, as the best material is
always found in small quantities.
If he has ever studied physiology,
and he must have studied this branch
as his former communications have
shown him to be very proficient in
music and all the other sciences (?,
he ought to know that a man 5 avOir-
! dupois and the size of his Uranium is
no index to his brain, for if we have
read Alright the largest brain on record
is that of an idiot SO don't imagine,
because you wear hat as large as
Mr.. GladstOne's that the quantity and
quality of the gray matter under ii
are equal to his, for if it were possible
we would sooner have thimble full
of his brain than a car load of yours
As regards my temerity, it does not
Inconvenience me in any way, but is
rather an advantage to me, as it ena

has not made me so crazy or stupid as
to lead me to believe that | could
practice plagiarism without being
exposed, and to exhibit my gold and
silver before an intelligent public
without being ridiculed and laughed
at. You accuse me of being possessed
with ruTi SGcrd fumes, or an accursed
appetite for gold. Now, as we are
both well known by the good people
in the neighborhoOds of Sang Run
and Hoyes, we will let them decide
whose love for lucre is the greatest,

cash without using any barrels.
Your condition is giving me no CON
cern whatever, but don't believe YOU
when you say that you are ALWAYS
ready, for in writing to a friend of
mine not long ago, you mis-spelled
the word 'holidays," which proves.
in my opinion, that you are not as
ready as you claim to be. We admit
that you are always ready for one
| thing, at least, and that is to boast
and brag.
This mistake might be overlooked
in pupil, but not in one who claims
to be scholar. Your knowlpdge of
geography seems to be on par with
your spelling, grammar, Latin and
Greek, for you have not properly
located Sleepy Hollow, the place of
your nativity, and ! will therefore for
the benefit OF our readers give short
description Of this wonderful place.
Sleepy Hollow, the home of the ven
cradle Rip Van Wrinkle, lies on both
sides of Drowsy Run, where he, when
boy used to catch crabs, minnows
and tadpoles, and where he first
caught his inspiration for music from
the croaking Of the frogs that lined
It's banks and from the kingfshnrs
that skinned its surface and dived
into its depths iii quest of their daily
supply of food. This little stream
rises in the great Sang Hill, flows a
north-Westerly course and empties
into Sang Run about one mile above
its confluence with YOugh river.
Concerning my adventure on Pleas
ant Hill,ifyou please, and not Sleepy
Hollow as you term it, | have the
most pleasant recollections, because |
have been Hospitality and pleasantly
entertained by the accomplished and
handsome daughters of the kind peo-
pie who live there, and if were revoung
again | assure you that | would climb
the gentle slopes of Pleasant Hill
quite often provided | could get the
consent of some of those handsome
young girls to do so.
| am credibly informed that YOU
now have aspirations in the same di-
rections that | then had, and have
been very ambitious in trying to
carry them out, but have only been
partially successful Notwithstanding
your fine personal appearance, musi-
cal voice and fascinating manner.
1t may be said of you that c'eSt Ie
pere 01sr ecHS, but it cannot be said
that You are the most learned and
respected of men.
You attempt by innuendo, of all
weapons the towards, to leave the
impression with the public that my
actions have not been exactly consist
ent. | frankly confess, brother. that
l am not an angel, and neither do |
believe you to be one and advise YOU,
as a friend, not to advance too far
along this line or | may be compelled
TO notice some of your past mistakes.

.LAYMAN'S CHRISTMAS.
BY MEMO.

NDpyrIghted by Dawe Tabor.
Join again the angel chorus:
Tell OF Gods great gift to men;
For the time is now before us,
When the Christ-child comes again;
Ever bringing to the nations
Thoughts of sweet simp lefty,
As they pour their glad oblations,
Atthe shrine OF infancy.
Slug the Joyous Christmas carol,
How the Great One came to earth,
Not in glorious apparel
l;ut by lowly human birth;
Unto all men manifesting
That Gods greatest gift is still
Nothing but a spirit resting,
Chlld-likc, on Fathers will.
So we vain and wayward mOrials,
In earth's Wilderness beguiled,
Safe u y reach the golden portals,

Not like Buddha, did he preach mae
tion, nor like Confucius did he preach
veneration for traditions. Activity in
the direction of others need, and open
minded fidelity towards truth though
it separated him forever from the sym
pathy of his own people-these were
his characteristics. What is Bethle-
hem to us: \ place only. What is
Jesus? A real person. Then at this

venerate the place of His birth. Thus

After nineteen centuries we are only
drifting back to His simple standards
of the first. Out of the ferment of
thought and the fury of conflict that
men have waged, is surging up, like
the dry land out of chaos, greater sim
plicity and therefore greater power.
We see that to have been a ruler of a
nation is less than to have lived to
hate evil that to live without purpose
though never SO luXuriously, is less in
the Divine estimate than the hesitat-
ing caress OF the least of us who would
sooth another's sorrow: that it is bet

that our Father watches our feeble

Over all virtues let us set simplicity.
Great message, great truths, great
happenings are ever simple in their
elements. Simplicity is the grandeur
of the great and the greatness of the
obscure. 1t is the charm of prattling
childhood; it is the diadem of the
learned
