The Three Kings.
By HENRY ".

Three kings came riding from far away
Melchior and Gaspar and Baltasar.
Three wise men out Of the east were they.
And they traveled by night and they slept
by day.
For their guide wal . beautiful. won
derful star.
The star was SO beau large and clear
That all the other stars Of the sky
Became a white mist in the atmosphere.
And by this they knew that the coming
was near
az the Prince foretold in the prophecy
Three cask-ts they bore on their saddle
bows.
Three caykets Of gold with golden keys
Their robes were Of crimson silk with
rows
OF bells and pomegranates and furbelows
Their turbans like blossoming ALMOND
And 80 the three kings rode into the west
Through the dusk Of night. over hill and
dell.
And sometimes they nodded with beard
on breast
And sometimes talked as they paused to
rest
With the people the met at some way
side we'll.
"Of the child thai is born" said Baltasar.
Good people. ! pray you tell US the
news.
For we in the east have seen his star
And have ridden fast and have ridden far
TO find and worship the King of the
Jews"
And the people answered. You ask II

SENT FOR THE WISE MEN AND CUES

So they rode away. and the star stood
still,
The only one In the gray of morn.
Yes. it stopped-it stood still Of its OWL
free will
Right over Bethlehem on the hill.
The city of David. where Christ was
born.
And the three kings rode through the gate
and the guard,
Through the silent street till their horses
turned '.
And neighed as they entered the great inn
. yard.
But the windows were closed. Inc the
doors were barred.
And only a light In the stable burned
In the air made sweet by the breath OF
kline.
The little child in the manager lay.
The child that would be King some day
OF a kingdom not human. but divine
His mother. Mary of Nazareth.
Sat watching beside his place Of rest.
For the Joy Of life and the terror OF
death
Were mingled together in her breast.
They aid their offerings at his feet.
The gold was their tribute to a king:
The frankincense. with its odor sweet.
Was for the priest: the paraclete.
h myrrh for the body's burying.
And the mother wondered and bowed her
head
And sat al still as 4 statue of stone.
Her heart was troubled. yet comforted.
Remembering what the angel had said
OF an endless reign and Of David's
throne.
Then the kings rode out of the city gate
With q CHATTER of hoofs, In proud array
Blu they went not back to Herod the
Great.
For they knew his malice and feared his
hate.
And returned to their homes by anoth
er way

That holidays are all a sell:
They interfere with our affairs
And cost "A lot Of cash as we'll.
And yet his words cannot provoke
My envy for his boarded sum.
I'd rather find myself dead broke
Than view the world like Mr.. Glumm

Are but rehearsals for III health
He tastes no pleasant condiments
Unless. perchance. tits done by stealth
But cen dyspepsia cannot make

CHRISTMAS WAITS AT
PUBLIC CHRISTMAS TREE
Popular Old English Custom Growing
In Favor In America.

Christmas waits" those bands Of
singers familiar in England for several
centuries, have been less numerous In
recent years. but the custom. with Ger
tain variations. is gaining ground in
the United States. The municipal
Christmas trees which will mark the
great holiday in many towns and cities
this year will have the singing of
Christmas carols and anthems as a
part Of the exercises in connection
with the trees.
The town of Burlington. N. j.. has
kept up the custom of the waits since
colonial days. Each Christmas eve a
band Of vocalists, recruited from the
choir Of st. Mary's Episcopal church
start out an hour or 10 before mid.
night and sing carols and anthems in
various sections Of the city. They visit
the homes Of the rector. the curate and
members Of the vestry and sing before
their doors. Az these homes are stu
ated In widely separated sections Of
q city. the singing Ia heard by prac
tically all Of the residents
Citizens If the town WAC may have
retired early are usually aroused by
the singing. and windows in upper
floors are thrown open. AS the sing
