folks are respectfully requested by
" Young America" to stand aside and;
give place to tbe romp, the sport and the
dance. Just about this time the “ little
folks” are beginning to prepare their big
gest stockings for the expected visit of
their ancient friend, Santa. Claus, who
always manages to creep through the

A VISIT FROM ST. NICHOLAS.
*T was the night before Christmas when all t tirbl.
the house, . ;
Not a creature was stirring, not even a moijtio;
The stockings were hung by the chimney
with care, ' ; '
In hope that St. Nicholas soon would bo there;
The children Were nestled all snug in their bfeds,’
While visions of sugar-plums danced thro ’ their
headsr ( - I -
And mama in her ’kerchief, and lin my cat),
Had Just settled our brains for a long winter's
nap—
When out on the lawn there arose such a oiat-.
ter,
1 sprang from my bed to see what was the mat
tor. -'l',- **
Away to 'the window I flow like a flash, :
Tore open tho shutters, and threw ap the sash,
The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow*
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below;
When, what to my wondering eyes- should; ap
pear,' ' - , '
Bat a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew In a moment it must be St. Kick,
More rapid than eagles his courses they came,
And he whistled and shouted, and called them
\S Why name j.’iiVv' • v. .J •'

Now, dash'away, dash away dash away all l"
As the leaves that' boforo tho wild hurricane

When they meet, with cu obstacle, mount to
• the sky, -
So up to tho house-top the coursers they flew,
"With the sleigh full of toys—ond St. Nicholas
too;
And then, In a twinkling, I he ard on the roof.
The prancing and pawning-of each Little hoof.
As I drew In my head, and was turning 'round,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with-a
bound-.
He was dressed all In fur, from his head to his
• ■ foot, . ■ .
And his clothes were all tarnished'with ashes
and sootr
A bundle of toys he haclflungonhls back", '
■And ho looked like a peddler Just opening his
pack ,* •;
His eyes—how they twinkled 1 his dimples, how
’ ■ merry! . .
His cheeks like rosea, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up Ilka a bow,
And the. board'on.hls chin was as white as the
snow., ’ ’ ,
The stump of a pipe ho held tight In his teeth.
And the smoko. It encircled his head.like a
• wreath.
Ho had a broad face, and a UUlo roundholly,
That shook, when ho laughed, like abdwlifuli
of Jelly, . /
He was chubby and plump—a right jblly old

And I laughed when I saw him In spite of Jay

A wink of his eye and a twist of hln head;
Boon gave rae to know I bad nothing to dread,
lie spoke not a Vford, but wont straight to : his
work.
And tilled all the stockings—thou turned with
a jerk,'
And laying his linger aside of his nose,.
And. giving a nod. np the chimney he rose.
He spring to- his sleigh, to his team gave a
whistle.
And away they, all flow, like the down of a

Bail heard him exclaim, ore ho drove out of

of point, so that the most fastidious pen
man cannot fail to find among the fif
teen just such a pen as suits him. The
Spencerian Pens are famous for their
elasticity of movement, smoothness of
point and groat durability, and are a
nearer approximation to the real Swan
Quill Pen than anything hitherto made.
Tbe^are manufactured in England un
der the supervision of the original in
ventor of steel pens, the venerable Joslati
Mason, and Joseph Qlllot—the latter
making a few of the numbers after tbs
models of the late P. R. Spencer, the
celebrated penman. They are used very
largely in the" common schools of the
United States, in all the principal com
'meroial colleges. In the government of
fices at Washington, and In the banks
and commercial offices throughout the
country, the sale reaching an enormous
quantity annually. Eor the convenience
of those who wish to try them, a sample
card of the Spencerian Pens may be bad
by mail, by enclosing 25 cents to Messrs.
Ivison, Blakeman, Taylor & Co., 138 and
ItO Grand atroet, N. Y., or the pens may

OHBIBTJdAS POEM.
Annie and' Willie's Prayer.
Se following poem, written by Mrs.
ih P. Snow, Mf one of tbe most ex
quisitely touching and beautiful literary
productions which wo have over read.—
It oaupot fall to , reach tbe hearts, of all
who peruse it, besides being particularly
appropriate to the holidays:
,’TWabtiieeVe before Christmas; :"Ooo<i night*
bad boon said.
And'Annie and While bad crept Into bod;,
There were tears on their pillows,' and tears la
their eyes,
And each little bosom was heavy with sighs—
For to-night,their stern father's command 'had
boon given,
That tbey.shanld retire precisely at seven, ]
Instead pit eight,’ troubled him more.
With questions unheard of than ever before!
He had told them lie thought this'delusions a
sin, . ■ .', ;•
No such being as "Santa Clans'*] overbad been,
Ahd he hoped alter this, ho should never more
• ■' hear ■ j
' How he scrambled down chimneys' with pres
" oats each year.
And this was the reason that two llttlo heads
So restlessly tossed on their soft, downy bed;
Eight, nine, and the clack on the steeple tolled
. ten; ■ ;
Not a word had been spoken by either till thou,
When Willie's sod face from the blanket did
poop, ' - . ;
And whispered, "Hear Annle,-isyou fast osleopT'
".Why no, brother WllUo," a sweet voloereplies,
"I’ve tried It In vain, hut I can’t shut my eyes;
For, somehow, it makes me so sorry beoauso
Hear papa has said there Is no. Santa Clans; :
Now wo know that there is and It can't bo do*
. nlod,.
For ho come every year before mamma died;
But then, I’ve been thinking that she used to
pray, .
And God wonld hear everything momma would
say ,•
And perhaps she asked Him to send Santa Claus
here. . ‘
With the sack full of presents he brougbtoyery
year." • ,
" Well, why tan’t we pay dest as mamma did
then,. V ’’ '
And ask Aim to send him with presents adin?”
“I’ve been thinking so, loo.” ‘ And wltnodt a
word more
Four llttlo bare feet bounded out oh the floor,
And four Utile knees the soft carpet pressed,
And two tiny hands are clasped close io each.
• •-; breast,
‘‘Now, WUUo, you know we must firmly believe
That the presents wo asks for wo’ro to receive
Yon must wait Jopt as still tUI I say the * Amen,*
And by that you will know that’your time’has
Como then;*’ ’ ‘ 1-

ElghV nine and the iltilo French: clock

Ere, the father had thought of hl&.chl
again; , .
He seems now to hear Annie's half sappr
sighs,
■And to see the big tears stand la 'Willie's

And that. I denied them the thrlco ; oake

But Just to make sure. I’ll steal up to ihelr
For I never spoke harsh to my darlings boi!
So saying ho softly ascended the stairs;
And arrived at the door to hear both of
prayers. •
His Annie's "bless papa" draws forth th<
tears, ’ i
And Willie’s grave promise falls sweet ol
ears. . |
"Strange, strange I'd forgotten/' said ho with *
slgb, ;
"How I longed, when a child, to have Christmas
• drow nigh'.
ITI atone for my harshness," he inwardly said,
"By answering their prayers ere I sleep on my
bed." ' ! ;
Then ho turned to tho stairs and softly fwpnt
down, . i j *
Throw off velvet slippers.and silk dressing

Donned UM; coat and boots . and was out lo the

And with Aunt Mary’s aid! In the nursery Jtwas
stored
i'.u i
Miss Dolly was seated beneath a pine tree,.
By the side or a table spread out for h er teni;
A work box well filed In the center wan laid,
And bn it a ring, for which Annie had prajyed;
A soldier In uniform stood by a sled, • | .
“With bright shifting runners and all painted
rod/*': ’ J -- ' ,
There were balls, dogs and horses; books ploas
. ing to see.
And birds of all colors were perched in the tree
While Santa Claua, laughing, stood up In the
top,
As If getting ready more presents to drop,
' And as the fond father the picture surveyed.
He thought for Uls trouble ho had amply
V,;paid. ' > .• v - v *•
And ho said to hlmsolf, os he brushed all a tonr,

So thinking, ha gently extinguished the llglbt
And tripped down tho stairs to retire foil the

As soon os the beams of tho bright morinlng

Put the darkness to night, and tiro stars, otie by

Triumphant for Twenty Years.—
More than twenty years ago the mustang
liniment made its debut In the west. Its
cures of tbe various external diseases of
horses and cattle, astonished,the planters
and farmers of the Mississippi and Ohio
Valleys, anda>demand for it sprung up
which necessitated its manufacture on
an .extensive scale. Soon the discovery
was made that ii wea a,grand specific for
rheumatism; gout, neuralgia, toothache,
and other external ailments of mankind.,
Then it was tried as a healing, pain kill*
log application, .in cases of outward In
jury, such as cuts, bruises, burns,spasms,
so., and was foutfd equally, serviceably..
The fame of the new remedy for some of
the most painful ills that afflict mankind
and the lower animals, spread rapidly,
Jand 'Mustang Molmeut soon took rank
In every state and territory of the Union
as a standard cure.
Chapped Hanps, face, tough skin
pimples, ringworm, salt-rheum, and
other, cutaneous affections cured, and
tho akin' made soft and smooth, by
