RecOllectiOns of Christmas.

T0e Minnesota Representatives Early
RecOllectiOns of Christmas.
early Christmas recollections are
associated In my mind always" says
Representative James A. Tawney of
Minnesota, with the picture Of a great
and beautiful church lighted in every
part with wax candles-thousands of
wax tapers-a surpliced choir and the
strains Of wonderful organ; this
picture against the background Of
cold, black morning before sunup, of
frozen rutty roads, of a bleak north
wind, breakfast of ginger cookies
and pair Of stiff crumpled boots,
which made every step of a three mile
trudge through the darkness q twinge
Of exquisite pain.
II was nine years old. My brother
was twelve, and with superior strength
and determination he overruled my de-
sir' due to the boots, to turn back for
home. The trouble arose from the fact
that we had tallowed the boots the
night before, and the tallow had hard
ened. 1t was necessary to suffer until
the warmth of the foot melted the tai.
low and made the boots less torture
some. So we plodded on.
1T was our first Christmas festivity.
We lived on farm two miles from
Ronneouville, in Adams county, Pa,
and brother had conceived the idea Of
going to mass at the Catholic church
three miles distant. For this purpose
we had risen before O'Clock in the
morning, had quietly distracted some
cakes from the jar in the cellar. and, as
I have described. painfully trudged
to the town and the big church
1T seemed big to the nine-year.old
boy, and it seemed gorgeous in its H.
Elimination. Wax candles I never had
heard Of, and SO many I never dream
ed existed. We edged in with the
crowd and stood at the rear Of the
church, and my boy eyes drank in a
scene which never has been nor prob
ably will be forgotten. It was Won
derful. spectacular, dramatic to me,
and that picture punctuates the vista
Of past Christmas days like striking

membered pictures. '-Pittsburg Press.
