And hero he, Hllly# didn't have u aoul but a eat outolde of Mamma and Daddy Hoy. , Poor lJUly boy I The longer he pon dered the more dejected he grew, but finally Snooksy, the great big tiger kitty, who allowel bin small master (o pull his sacred tall and otherwise subject him to such Indignities, wan aroused from his peaceful fdumhers by a much-excited little boy, who Just hopped around on one foot, and finally* He Put the Letter in the Fireplace. ended by grabbing kitty up In his arms. This wuh too much,, for Snooksy was tin armful, and down went Wee Billy, Snooksy and all. Such n mix-up! For a few minutes nothing could be seen but a roly-poly boy all arms and lotfs and n much-alarmed cut who man aged to crawl from under hla little master and sought the farthest corner In the front ball from which he could view Wee Billy Hoy safely, and also be ready to run If such another scene seemed imminent. Hilly Hoy had solved the problem. What was it bis teacher had told him about the Christinas baby? The small mind groped for the much desired information, but In vain.) .Any how, it didn't matter. Of course Santa Claus brought the Christina* Haby, because lie brought all things at Christmas time; so why not write San ta and tell him all about it. Wee Hilly Hoy rushed to mamma's desk and was soon busy. Had he time to send his letter? It still lacked a week to Christinas and everybody was busy, so "Billy Hoy mustn't bother," when he had asked his pretty mother; but he guessed It wouldn't take lorig for a letter to reach such a well-known old gentleman. So Hilly Hoy wrote: "Dear Santy Claus, I want a little brother, not a big one, but ouo Just like me becuz I get lonesome, your lovin' billy boy." ? He put the letter In the 11 replace, happy In the knowledge that Santa Claus had received it because* It "burned so bootlfully." Wee Hilly guarded his precious se cret carefully ? ami counted th?? days, lie haunted the d< ors and was in the way generally, meaning t < ? intercept anybody bringing a baby brother. Hut the week passed and a heavy-hearted little boy was tucked Into bed by Daddy Boy after a strenuous time un divsslng'and the hanging. of the stock ing. Where was his precious mamma, why wasn't she there to kiss and tuck bim in? Hut Daddy Boy said she was "get ting ready for Santa Clans,-' and of eourse, Daddy Boy knew, but ? and the heavy lids dropped and body grew unlet. Wee Billy Boy was in Dream land, having an awful fight with a new brother, who insisted on sitting on Snooksy. .. Morning dawned and Hilly Hoy opened his eyes only to remember the day. and shouting: "Merry Christmas, Mamma. Merry Christmas, Daddy Boy 1" He jumped out of bed. Daddy Hoy met him at the door, and strange to say, was ail dressed. "Did he bring him. Daddy Boy V Oh I Did he?" "Hrinjc what, son?" asked Daddy Hoy. "A brother. I wrote "Santa Clau.s for a brother." And the blue eyes grew tuary as he looked at hia stocking, but saw no sign of the coveted brother. "You come with me, aon ; perhaps you haven't looked In tbe Mghi place." And picking up BUIy Boy in his arms, he tiptoed into mamma's room, and there in his precious mother's bed was a brr?nd ne# baby -brother. 1 Santa Claus hadn't forgotten Wee Billy Boy after alL ? .= v ? --V ? - Following the Star By FRBUfcWC & WBATHBULV 1! T was the eve of Christmas; the snow lay deep and white. I sat beside my window and looked into the night. I heard the church bells ringing, I saw the bright btars shine, And childhood came again to me with all its dreams divine, i Xhwn as I listened to the bells and vuttched the bkics afar. Out of the east initio there rose I one radiant slur, And every other star grew pale be fore that heavenly glow. It seemed to bid mo follow, and I could not choose but go. From street to street it led me by many a mansion fair. It shone through dingy casements on many a garret bare, From highway on to highway, through alleys dark and cold, And where it shone the darkness was flooded all with gold. Sad hearts forgot their sorrow, rough hearts grew soft and mild, And weary little children tamed in their sleep and smiled, While many a homeless wanderer uplifted patient eyes, Seeming to see a home at last be yond those starry skies. And then methought earth faded. I rose as borne on wings Beyond the waste of rained lives, the press of human things. Above the toil and shadow, above the want and woe, My old self and its darkness seemed left on earth below, | And onward, upward, shone the star nntil it seamed to me ! It flashed upon the golden gates and o'er the crystal sea, ! And then the gates rolled backward ; I stood where angels trod. It was the Star of Bethlehem had b?d me up to God. . ? Christmas Dinner In Dixie In a certain story uf Henry James be tells of being in a room of "beauti ful oinissi??n--. " nnd to many dining tables of today, among both the rich and poor, the same term could be ap plied so far as food is concerned, bui to the Christmas dinners of my clear est recollections It would not properly apply, says Kate Langle.v Bosher. the well known author, in the New York Times. Ours was a I nge family, and always there were guests ami relatives to dine with us. In consequence the table was enlarged to the limit of its capacity and reached from one end of the dirk ing room t?> the other. In the center was a bowl of holl.v whose berries gleamed In the light which fell upon tbem. and at both head nnd foot of the table a lurge. an Imposingly huge, and consequential turkey whlclkJmd long been preparing f'?r his fate lay read,\ foF his sacrlllee. Today two turkeys seem scandalously unnecessary. In the yesterdays the \ were not considered so On one side of the holly berries was a Smlthlield ham baked to a brown ness that was Indeed alluring; on the other, a round of spiced beef whose fragrance made waiting difficult. Soup and fish on Christ rilas day were al ways dispensed with Oysters only were served while the carving was beim: done, and when the latter was sulli imtly advanced to per mit It was with ri^ht good will and ap petite* made ready by the close appeal bf celery and crnnl>erries and home made pickles and crisp corn bread and vegetables of all sorts and kinds thn? thanks were given for another reunlt ing nnd for Cod's great gift to man. nnd all in the household went merrily to work. When dessert was served the table was again laden with a variety that now seems prodigally wasteful of things called sweet nnd surely of a tempting not to be resisted. Plum pudding with its burning brandy perk jly Insisted that It l?e tried first, then pies of luscious filling and golden Jelly or perhaps of a rich redT accord ing to the wine with which It was made. Fruits and nuts and raisins kept the children busy, nnd when at last the table was left It was with a silent prayer from some that penalty be not e* acted for the misdeeds of the flesh In many homes of. the south eggnoc was made on Christmas eve and kept overnight to "season." and In others apple toddy was prepared a week or so in advance of Its using. As appetizers either served the purpose well, hut it was *?<>? n* nppetlrers thnt they were taken. The average southerner takes them because he likes tnem. He thinks tbem very good, and Christmas comes bat ones in n long, long year! But of coarse others may disagree with him is* to their use? and he has no quarrel trlth the others.
