If you've lost your zest for Christmas,
Lost your love for all its cheer
If you scoff at gifts and giving
As the Christmas time draws near
If you frown at all the clatter
When Old Santa trims his tree,
Tell me, please, what is the matter?
Something's wrong, it seems to me-
1t the stocking by the hearthstone
Wakes no memory in your breast
II the coming of Old Santa
After all have gone TO rest
Does not rouse your heart to action
Make it beat and throb and kick
Answer for my satisfaction,
Are you sure you are not sick?
Ii you can't feel joy at Christmas,
Joy of life and joy of song
If you cant rejoice in giving,
Whether il be right or wrong
If the Yule-log's invitation
To your heart no cheer can give
Let me ask how in creation
Is ii worth your while to live?

she was yet a very young girl she
was dragged away from all this splen-

appearance of her brother she wss
kept confined as a prisoner, and it
was through an exchange OF prison

of the AustrianS. She married tho
Duke of Angouleme, better known as

exile by the French government and
died after fifteen years of enforced
absence from the land of her happy

3. Because whenever women have
