Down at the end Of town, however,
there was n little home where ar
air Of gloom prevailed. There no
Christmas preparations were under
way, nor was there anything to indi-
cate that the greatest day of the year
was close at hand. An old nan sat
at a dying fire in a crOuChing atti-
tude, his long bOny fingers clasped to-
gether. There was something pathetic
about the weary droOp Of the bent old
body and in the ~quivering of his lips
as he spoke every now and then to
himself:
"Ten years ago, tonight, she went"
he murmured; ten long weary years
without a sight of her bOnny face.

drive my own daughter from my home
and heart and all because she mar
rled the man she loved. But I have
paid dearly for my folly since I would
give all the world if it were mine just
to see her once again."
But Michael Condor had little hope
Of seeing his daughter again. She
seemed to have vanished completely
since that black night when he had
spoken so harshly to her. He had
tried hard to find her during the pas
years, reducing himself to almOs
actual want by deprlving himself o
the money he had spent in the search
for her. OF late he had to cOnhn'
himself to an occasional advertisement
In some paper, hoping against hop
each time that she might see 1t. Blu
with each new disappointment a sens
Of almost despair would take posses

ginning to crowd the Irish hard on
the outskirts. And the Irish thought
1t the most natural thing that old
AbramOwitz should sell Christmas
toys.
Why not? All the youngsters want
ed toys. There were red devils, fire
crackers that you stamped under foot
and they went OF with a succession
Of explosions that never came to an
end. There were wonderful dolls, and
stockings full OF sweetmeats, and
Christmas cards so cheap. Everybody
bought of AbramOwit7. Il was the
first sign Of Christmas when little
Mike or Dan would call across the
street: "Hey, the old Christmas Jews
coming with his pushcart."
Only this year the month wore on
toward Christmas and there was no
sign Of Abramowitz. Il was the Goth
Of December. Suddenly at the end OF
the street, the cry was raised: "The
Christmas Jews comingI"
Out they tumbled into the street.
all the little Mikes and Dams and
NOras. Then q surprise awaited them.
This wasn't AbramOwitz-it was an
other Christmas Jew, with a fOrked,
black beard and malicious eyes. And
his wares-well, they might have been
all right, but they weren't the kind old
AbramOwitz had brought. And, some
how, nobody wanted to buy from this

But the business that the young man
who had s~upplanted old AbramOwitz
did was singularly meager. AbramO-
wiuz had been a feature Of the neigh
bOrhOOd so long. Except at Christmas
time he vas simply a peddler, passing
along the street with old clothes and
ties and cheap jewelry, but at Christ
mas he took on a peculiar atmosphere
among the denizens Of Cherry Hin.
No, this wasn't their Christmas Jew.

couldn't understand It.
The twenty-second came. Somehow
nobody quite lost faith IN AbramOwitz
turning up. 1t seemed impossible that
the old man wouldn't have notified
somebody. But the twenty-third came.
Suddenly little Dan ran screaming
up the street: "Hey, fellers, the
Christmas Jews come backE"
OHt they poured-Mlke, Dan, Nora
and Kitty. There was AbramOwitz,
his pushcart loaded with the choicest
selection Of Christmas toys that had
ever come into Cherry Hill. And Abram-
Owitz himself, in his green ~OvercOat
and fur cap, looking no more than
the shadow Of his former self.
He had come out Of the hospital a
week before they wanted to dismiss
him. He wasn't going to let his Christ
mas customers be disappointed. And
now his barrow was almost empty.
"Chreestmas toys!" Up the street
came the rival pushcart man, calling
his wares and scOwling. He stopped
opposite AbramOwitz and glared al
him.
Say, what you want to butt in OF
my trade fOr?" he demanded, advanC
ing with ~truculent gestures.
That was a time in Cherry Hill. Il

was stripped Of its contents. Dolls

70 them fearfully splendid,
that light that shOne round about
them, but to the angel It was as but
an atom Of the dazzling radiance Of
his sphere, like the tiny star point
above him, shining through upon the
darkened world.
But It was a spark from the warm
heart of infinite love, an u~nquench-
able love. 1t has never gone out. Il
shines still in the Shepherds field, like
q grain of radium. Every Christmas eve
many people go to see It. The Shep-
herds carried 1t away, but there 1t Is.
Ever since that night cold hearts have
taken a little Of it for heart cure, but
It remains. AS late as last year q
little girl cried out: "COme, mamma,
sweetie-my-lOvey, and put me to bed,
so I can wake up and feel it's Christ
mas" and when she woke up some Of
It had sent her the lovely gift that
she had wanted most Of all.
It was a spark Of everlasting pity
that prompted and answered a child's
prayer not long ago, when she said,
"And try to take care Of the poor lit
tie childen, who haven't any fathers,
and where Santa Claus can't 60" It Is
a point Of pity in the world for all
who feel deserted and lonely, sending
peace and cheer to drive away misery.
Some are so self-suflcient that they
will not let others even step on their
shadows, and they get no good from
the spark that is so glad to put our
shadows away. Such should learn
their golden text as well as young
Arthur did, before recitlng It at home
after this manner: "Let me love each
annUder."
This Christmas spark Of light, thil
shining Of the glory Of God, was bright
with news Of that new life that had
come into the world to illuminate ev
