ONE GRIEVOUS SIN..
His plea was very earnest, but St. Peter
shook his, head.
"There is no room around here for a man
like you," he said.
"No doubt you have some virtues, but
your record isn't clear,
And much as I regret it, sir, we cannot
keep you here."
'I've tried to prove my honesty," the ap
plioant began;
"There's none ten say I swindled or 'did
up' my fellow man ;
I always gage fair value, and I paid my .
clerks well, too."
St. Peter bowed approvingly and answer-
ed, "That is true."
"1 gave a lot in charity," the applicant
declared ;
"Relying on my promisee no mortal bad-
ly fared,
For I was ever truthful, as I think you
ought to know."
St, Peter bowed approvingly and answer-
ed ,'That is so
"Then why should yoarefuse me, sir f''
the applicant inquired.
"If I've been fair and truthful, too, pray
why should I be fired 7"
St. Peter slowly answered, seeming dis-
inclined to talk
"I noticed in the Winter time you never
deemed your walk."
IlOSiE'S CHRISTMAS.
Wo didn't -have wroth of a Christmas,
My papa and Rosie and me ;
For mamma had gone to the prison
To see to the poor prisoner's brae.
And Ethel, my big, grown-np sister,
She was ddwn to bbe'sylum all day
To help with the big turkey dinner
And muke games for the children to
play.
She belongs to a clubof young ladies,
With a beautiful object, they say,
'Tie to go among poor, lonesome children
And make all their sad hearts more
l
And aunt e, you don't know my auntie,
She's my own papa's half-sister Kate ;
She is 'bilged to be round to the abase],
Till sometimes its dreadfully late.
Forshe pities the poor, worn,out curate,
His burdens, she.eays, are so great,
So she arranges the flowers and the;
mueio,
And he comes home round by our gate.
I should think that way was the longest,
But then I' suppose she known best,
Aunt Kate says "he intones most splen-
did,'
And hie name is Vane Algeron Weet.
My papa had bought a big tarlcey,
And had it sent home Christmas lave,
But bbere wasn't a sonl there to a0ok it,
For Bridget had threatened to leave,
If she couldn't go off with het cumin
—
He don't look like ber one bit—
She Bays she belonge to a "Union,'
And the "'Union" won't let her submit.
130 we had bread andmilk for our dinner,
And some redoing and candy and then
Rosie and ale went down to the pantry
To look at the turkey again.
Oh 1 the day was SO long and so lone -
Aria papa watt as lonesome es we ;
And all the sweet roses, the tea and the
ferns and carnations
That had made our bay window so
bright
Hannald picked for the men at the prison
To make their bad hearts pure and
white.
Papa woe going to talio us out riding,
AO lie wee afraid that be didn't riuito
,dor lasled'
adre,; eaot ht cold and was apagb'
1118,
Tlrere waft dampuoes and ohiils in the
ira
Po we eat up oloso to the window,
heels and me on my papa's We knees,
And we watellod the dear little birdies
That were hopping about in the trees.
And' Rosie said "She'd like to he a brown
sparrow,"
And I said "I'd sooner by far be a
robin
That flies away Winton
Where the flowers and gay blossoms
are,"
,end papa said "He'd rather be a jail bird,
'Cause he thought they fared the best,"
But we all were real glad we weren't
turkeys,
'Cause then we'd be killed with the
rest.
That night I pub into rey prayer
"Dear God, we've been lonespme today
For mamma, aunt, Ethel and Bridget
livery one of them all went away ;
Won't you platter; make a club or society,
'Fore it's time for next Christmas to
be,
To take oath of "Flenterplate families"
Like papa and Rosie and me 1"
Aud I think my papa's grown pioue,
'Cause he listened as still as a mouse,
Till I got to "Amen," then he said it
And it sounded all over the house.
