Christmas Toys.

I've no little one to buy for 'e
The snow crowned woman said,
AS she stood beside the counter
Where the dainty toys were spread.
I've no little ones to buy for
Her voice was low and sad.
As she looked aa ain at the dainty toys
That make little hearts so glad.
No little ones to buy for
Her own were growing grey,
And the dearest one of all she had
Had gone to heaven away
So she stood by the Xmas counter
With its wealth of Xmas toys,
And thought again of the little one
Safe home midst heavens Joys.

The Night
Before Xmas
By Wilbur D. Nesbit

"'Tis the night before Christmas" +"

And wander in fancy
10 ''once on a time
| see the big fireplace,
The girls and the boys,
The long, heaped-up stockings,
The drums and the toys.
"Tis the night before Christmas
So old, and so new!
With all Of its dreamings
So good and SO true.
| see all the faces
Forgotten 50 long,
And out Of the twilight
There murmurs song.
"Tis the night before Christmas''
And here by my CRATE,
The past rises, glowing;
The years lose their weight;
The boy-days come troopins
At memory's call,
And CLEAN in the emhers
Ihat Kicker end tall.
"'Tis the night before Christmas"
All, could / but clutch
The gold Of my fancies!
'Twould 60 at my touch!
The shouts and the laughter
New sweet to my ear
Would shrink to silence
Too deep and too drear.
"Tis the night before Christmas"
Remembrances stir
As sweet as the cherished
Frank incense and myrrh.
And hark! AS the visions
Grow dim to the sight,
There comes: MERRY Christmas!
And, boy-days, good nightv'
