emperor is alone in the magnificent
palace and there are no children to
scream with delight over the magnlr-
cent Christmas tree and the hundreds
OF beautiful presents so dear to
child's heart. Now the celebration is
confined to Il liberal distribution o.
presents to the members Of the roya
household and Wholesale gifts Of char
ity to the sick and poor. The emper
or observes the day merely as a re
ligious feast and passes the day quiet,
ly, devoting himself to sad recollec-
tiOns and deeds Of charity.
