BY Charles Dickens,

Scrooge said that he would see
him-yes. indeed he did. He went
the whole length of the expression,
and said that he would see him in
that extremity first.
But Why" cried Scrooges
nephew. Why"
why did you get married."

growled Scrooge, as II that were
the only thing in the world more

to find you so resolute. We have
never had any quarrel, to which
II have been a party. But | have
made the trial in homage to Christ
mas. and I'll keep my Christmas
humor to the last. So Merry
Christmas, uncle,"
Good afternoon" said Scrooge.
His nephew left the room. He
stopped at the outer door to be-
stow the greetings of the season
on the clerk, who, cold as he was,
was warmer than Scrooge; for he
returned them cordially.
There's another fellow" NUT
tered Scrooge. who overheard hiri I;
my clerk, with fifteen shilling a
week, and a wife and family, talk
ing about a merry Christmas. I'll
retire to Bedlam."
This lunatic, in letting Scrooge' s
nephew out, had let two other
people in. They were portly
gentlemen, pleasant to behold,
and now stood, with their hats off
in Scrooge's office. They had
books and papers in their HANDS
and bowed to him.
"Scrooge and Marley's, be-
lieve,' said one of the gentlemen.
Have | the pleasure of addressing
Mr.. Scrooge or Mr. Marley?"
Mr.. Marley has been dead these
seven years" Scrooge replied. "He
died seven years ago this very

we should make some slight pro-
vision for the poor and destitute,
who suffer greatly at the present
time. A few of us are endeavCring

Scrooge, and it's not fair. If I was

The clerk promised that he

Scrooge took his melancholy din
ner In his usual melancholy tav-
ern; and having read all the news

in chambers which had once be-
longed to his deceased partner.
They were in a gloomy suite of
rooms in a lowering pile of build
ing. Nobody lived in it but
Scrooge, the other rooms being all
let out as offices.
! Now, 1t is a fact that there was
nothing at all particular about the
knocker on the door, except that 1t
was very large. 1t is also fact that
Scrooge had seen it, night and
morning, during his whole resi-
dence in that place; also that
Scrooge had as little of what is
called fancy about him as any man
in the city of London.
Let 1t also be borne in mind that
Scrooge had not bestowed one
thought on Marley since his last
mention of his seven-years dead
partner that afternoon. And then
let any man explain to me, If he
can. how it happened that Scrooge
having his key in the lock of the
door, saw in the knocker-not a
knocker-but Marley's face.
Marley's face. It was not angry
or ferocious, but looked at Scrooge
as Marley used to look: with ghost
ly spectacles turned up on its
ghostly forehead. The hair was
curiously stirred, as If by breath OF
hot air; and, though the eyes were
wide open, they were perfectly mo-
tionless.
AS Scrooge looked fixedly at this
phenomenon 1t was a knocker
again.
To say that he was not startled
would be untrue. But he put his
hand upon the key he had relin-
