Bee tho Child, tho meek and low ly,

Thus wo keep the Christmas time.

Sings on earth Its song sublime!
"Wondering shepherds boo tho night

Wondering hear tho argcl message:
Como and let us kneel before him.
Let ns find him nnd adore him.
Tcace on earth this child dothprcs-

Sing your joy, O Christmas chime!
Let us keep tho Christmas time.
Let all strife and hatred cease,
Kindness live, good will and peace.
Thus wo keep tho Christmas time.

"Eagerly tho Magi sped
By the wondrous star beam led,

Unrdcrs Flint, Esq., lawyer, sat alone
In his bachelor s den in n big easy chair,
hia feet Incased in n pair oC dilapidated
old slippers, resting on tho fender, his
hands thrust half way into his trousers
pockets and his head bent forward until
his chin rested on his breast. On tho
tablo beside him lay a couplo of newspa
pers and a yellow covered law book,
open at the pase he had been consulting.
Lawyer Flint was deep in perplexing
thought, to Judgo by the expression of
his face, for his brow was clouded and
his lips compressed, nnd occasionally ho
turned his head toward tho open volume
as if Inclined to seek further aid from
It, but with a slight shako of the head
relapsed again into his former attitude,
He had sat thus for a long time when
thero was a knock at the door.
"Como in," said tho lawyer, without
looking up.
A servant girl entered, handed him a
note and withdrew.
Lawyer Flint opened tho note, read It,
uttering an exclamation of impatience,
arose and paced up nnd down tho room.
"So Rolingold can't meet me tomor
row because it's Christmas," he mut
tered, as ho stalked across tao iloor; "ev
ery day is important in this matter and
yet he, the one most interested, delays
proceedings twenty-four hours simply be
cause it happens to be uunstmas. uaai
I can't see how a business man liko Hoi
ingold can be so foolish. Well," ho con.
tinned, "let him take his holiday and
enjoyltif he can; I couldn't. It's many
and many a- long day since Christmas
interfered with my business."
He returned to Ills chair, but tho train
of his thought had been interrupted nnd
his face now wore a cynical, hard look
as he Razed Into tho crackling tiro. Once
long ago, his Christmas days had been
bright, too, but their brightness was ob
scured by more vivid recollections of
other Christmas times In later years.
when ambition and disappointment aud
poverty and greed had steeled his heart
and left no room for Christmas thoughts,
Oh, the years that he had worked and
starved nnd hoarded to reach his present
condition of comfortable independence!
As he looked back upon them now his
lips closed tighter and tho bitterness
deepened tn his face.
From a distant part of the house ramo
the sound of music, and tho laughter of
aluldren, and the hum of conversation.
But the 1 ryer remained motionless
with his head upon uis breast.
Rat-tat, rnt-tat, rattle-tattle, rattle-
tattle, rat-tat, rattle-tattle, rat-tat-tat.
What was that? It seeined to como
from the closet nt the other side of tho
room. The lawyer went over and opened
the closet doon thero wa.i nothing to bo
seen except u lot ot old law books piled
upon the shelves and a pair of Heavy old
boots on tne iloor.
That noise mast have como from be
low stairs, after all," ho said, "bat it
seemed to be right In the room; sounded
jnst liko some one daneing on a bare
floor,"
I was just thinking of Uncle Tom,'
he continued, "and there nre the boots
the old man left here when he got his
new ones at the clow of his uslt,
month ago. I must tell Joe to take them
away."
lie went over to the chair ana sat
down again. "Undo Tom," ho said to
himself. "Buhl I hope he enjoyed his
visit here. I didn't. I'd go crazy with
that blundering old man around me,
nudging me and slapping me on the
back, 'trying to get a little fun out of
me, as he said, with that everlasting,
good natured laugh of hi .. 'Christmas
'11 soon be here,' he said, at he was leav
ing, 'n I hope you'll brack up. Harden,
and enjoy yourself, i d suow you now to
do it If I ooul I stay with you.' Well, I
wonder now what he'd do to show me
how to enj' y Christniasr" said the law
yer, as he settled down in Ills chair.
Again the sounds of laughter and con
versation came faintly from below. The
violins struck np n lively air and
Rattle-te-tat-te, rattle-te-tat-te, rat-te-tattle-te-ratlle-te-ttttl
The lawyer looked quickly toward the
closet, the door of which he bad left
open, lie rubbed his eyes and looked
again. Yes, there coold be no mistake
about it, there were Uncle Tom's boots
stepping about ou the closet floor, rat
tling oil the time with heel and toe,
sidling across aud back, right boot first,
tuft boot first, up with the right, np

I with the left, and, as tho muslo grew
I louder, up with both, crack! crack! the
heels enmo together twice In the air,
, landing on the floor in exact time with
I the music, and finishing up with n live
j ly rattle-tat-te-rattle-tattle, rat-tat-tat.
Then they came briskly over toward tho
astonished lawyer exactly ns though
they had feet and legs In them. Over to
the fire they walked, turned heels to
ward it and stood there wide opart.
Involuntarily, Lawyer Flint glanced
np ns if expecting to see the ruddy, Jovial
face and portly form of his Uncle Tom.
There were the boots just ns the old man
would have placed them, but Uncle Tom
was not there.
Bless my soull" exclaimed the law
yer, "but this is mighty curious.
The toe of the right boot began tap
ping the carpet gently, then they moved
over to the window, stood still a mo
ment nnd then walked out into tho hull-
way.
"Qarl!" said Lawyer Flint excitedly,
I believe they nre going out. I must
see the end of this tiling."
He threw off his dressing gown, hur
ried Into his shoes; overcoat and hat, and
followed the boots out of tho street door,
which had opened nt their approach.
Down the steps they tripped gayly and
turned toward tho brilliantly lighted
avenue. Tho still, starlit night was bit
terly cold, and Lawyer Flint shivered ns
he buttoned his heavy coat close up
around his neck. Up the street he has
tened, following tho empty boots, which
slipped sideways at every other step and
lammed their heels into tho trodden
snow, but made their way rapidly, never
theless. Around tho corner, into tho avenue, in
nnd out among the throngs of Christmas
ove pedestrians, dodging hero and thero,
steppiug on toes, stopping in front of
show windows, kicking themselves to
gether and stamping on tho ground
thus went tho old boots, nnd after them
followed tho oxcited lawyer.
They turned Into a big store. "Now,"
thought Lawyer Flint, ns ho entered
the door, "soino ono will be sure to seo
them," but strango to saj tho boots
were entirely unnoticed by the buzzing,
laughing, happy people who thronged
the store.
Tho lawyer leaned against tho toy
counter and watched tho boots as they
shuffled around on tho floor.
"Something for tho little ones?"
Tho question was askod by a pretty
salesgirl, nnd it was addressed to Har
ders Flint. Ho started, and for the
first time realized that ho was in a
rather peculiar position. Why was he
standing around thero, tho people would
ask, if he did not wish to buy? How
long would he be obliged to remain? Ho
couldn't tell. Should ho say that he
was waiting for those old boots? No,
no; ho didn't wish on any account to
call attention to tho ridiculous perform
ance they were going through.
yes," lie said, coloring, "something
for tho little ones;" and then ho went
about selecting tin horns, and silver
bells, and woolly dogs, and wooden
monkeys, nnd trumpets, and checkers,
and dominoes, growing whito and red
by turns ns ho thought of tho fearful
extravaganco, and, glancing furtively,
with increasing impatience aud auger,
at tho boots, which seemed livelier than
ever as his purchases increased.
'Seven dollars and forty cents, please,"
said the salesgirl.
Into the silver ball went a good ten
dollar bill! click, click, it shot npward
and slid across tho cashier s desk, whilo
the lawyer groaned and waited for his
change.
Rattle-te-tat-te, rattlo-te-tat-te, rattlo-
te-tat-te, rat-ta-tat! went tho old boots
close by his side. Several people looked
at him with smiles of amusement,
Happy time, isn't it?" said a jolly little
fat man, glancing at the lawyer's big
bundle. "I feel like dancing myself."
"Change, sir; thank yon. Merry
Christinas!
Tho exasperated lawyer grasped his
bundle anil hurried alter tho boots,
which now seemed anxious to get nway
from the store. When he struck the cold
air and again drew his coat around him
ho seemed somehow to feel less annoy
ance. The excitement of tho chase had
warmed Ids blood. It was n curious
feeling that began now to steal over him.
the liko of which ho had never experi
enced before, or at least not for many
years, he said to himself, as- ho stopped
btfore a candy store and followed tho
boots lusido.
Candy for Christmas?" Ho smiled
almost to think that he, Harders Flint,
should hear such a question addressed to
himself, and more astounding yet was
the fact that he did want to buy somo
candy for Christmas, and that ho really
stood there, pockctbook in hand, wait
ing for It.
Rattle-to-tat, te-tnt-te-tat!
A smile broko over the salesgirl's face
as she handed him the packago of candy,
and away went tho lawyer, after tho
boots, which seemed determined to give
him a lively chose beforo the evening
was over. Again he was in tho biting
air, but the warm blood coursed through
every vein In Ids body as he hurried
along. Again and again they stopped.

empty and his arms more than f ulL Tho

save his life, help laughing at them ns
they skipped and slipped and danced
along the sidewalk.
Away they led him, out of the avenue.
down the dark side streets, until he
heard the sound of children singing. In
this direction the old boots hastened and
stopped before the house from whence
the singing came. Up the steps they
went; the door opened, and somehow
tho lawyer, too much flustered and con
fused to know how it was exactly, found
himself in a room filled with children,
and a lovely lady was saying to him:
"All! you'ie in time, Bir. Thank you so
much. We haven't distributed the pres
ents yet. You will make u good many
little hearts glad tonight, sir." And all
around hlin was warmth aud light and
music and a clattering ot happy tongues,
and altogether such a joyous atmosphere
as he would not have believed could pos
sibly exist anywhere.
"Good night! Merry Christmas!" The
sound rang in his ears as he followed
the lively old boots out of the door and
bock through the dark streets Into tho
avenue.
"I wonder where thej-'ll take me
now?" he said, chuckling nnd langbing
softly. '" 'id!" he continued, "I had
more thau lorty dollars In that pocket
book, and there isn't enough left to
liello! there they go into a cigar store.
H-m, cigars are too great a luxury for
Harden Flint; not tonight, though," he
laughed. "I'll smoke tonight," and he
oame out of the store a moment later
with a box of choice cigars In his hand.
And then the old boots led him back
at a moderate pace tn his bachelor's
quarters. He whittled softly as he re
moved his coat and got iuto his drawing
gown and slippers; then lie lit a cigar,
threw Mmself into the big chair before
the fire and sat conteutedlt puffing the

when from the closet he heard the old
boots dancing again,
Hattle-te, rattle-to, rattle-te-tat, rat-

"They must be tired," thought tho
lawyer, as the lively rattle dwindled Into
a regular monotonous tapping.
Then ho started, sat up straight and
opened his eyes. The tapping did not
come from the closet, but from the hall
door. It was Joe, como to replenish the
fire.
"I've been dreaming," said Lawyer
Flint to himself. He turned his back to
tho fire, looked over toward tho closet
and smiled. Then ho walked to the
window and looked out Into the street,
He took out his watch and looked nt It,
while a light shone in his eyes nnd his
month worked curiously.
"Iheres time enough yet," ho said,
and Joo was surprised to seo him hurry

A SHAKER CHRISTMAS.
HOW THE FESTIVAL IS KEPT DY
THESE RELIGIOUS CELIBATES.
The Day Ii One of Great SljpilQcance to
Them nnd Ii Obierrrd with Great
Solemnity--Their Bongi, Marches and
Shaking The Christmas Dinner.
No ono probably celebrates tho glad
Christmas holiday in n more peculiar
way than do the Shakers, those strange
yet Industrious celibates who were
brought over from England considerably
over a century ago by tho good old
"Mother Ann Lee." Thero aro several
colonies of these queer people In tho
United States, and all enjoy the same
pleasures, If thero can be such a thing In
their lives, and nil bollevo In tho same
doctrines. Years ago these honest but
misguided people discovered that tho
Scriptures directed all men and women
to live apart. They believe that be
cause the Messiah did not marry It Is a
sin for them to do so, and consequently
there Is but ono lovo In their lives, and
that a love of religion.
The Shakers have a manner and style
peculiarly their own and worship Ofod
in every breath. Believing ns they do
in the Messiah, they think it a duty to
celebrate the birth of the Saviour, and
their service on Christmas day Is most
beautiful and impressive.
The remark "still as a Shaker meet
ing" has often been heard, and those who
have attended a meeting of theso devout
people know that a word Is never spoken
until tho "spirit moves," and so it goes
from Sunday to Sunday until Christmas
comes, which with them means a day of
the greatest devotion. The day to them
does not bring the Joys, pleasures and
dissipations of the world, thero Is no giv
ing of gifts, no belief in St. Nicholas, no
Christmas tree and no pleasures. In fact
nothing but prayer. No preparations
are made for the glad festival,
Tho morning before Christmas the
celibates move toward tho little church
in couples. Tho men go by themselves
and dress In tho conventional black, with
broad brimmed hats and gaze straight
beforo them. They never smile, for to
smile is a sin in their belief. The wom
en follow the men, and wear Shaker bon
nets ot yellow straw and graygown3,
and look prim nnd quaint. A large
white handkerchief covers the chest in
primitive simplicity. Quietness reigns
thronghont the day, never a word being
spoken. In fact the spirit docs not
movo, and tho peoplo stand there for
hours like statues. At sundown they
go to the dormttorioa and retire.
Christmas morning they go to the
church again and pass the holiday in
prayer, song and religious glorification.
They stand perfectly quiet and mnto un
til the "spirit moves," when each ono
gives his or her experience, for on this
day abovo all they delight In testifying
to their great and complete happiness.
A Shaker church is entirely different
from the "world s people s church. In
stead of Beats or pews, ns are nsunlly
seen in churches, there Is n big open
space, and the men nnd women range
themselves on opposite sides or the room,
One ot the elders makes a Bhort address.
Then all is quietness. After about half
an hour a dozen or so of the younger
people, either male or female, or perhaps
both, enter the center of the space and
begin a solemn march.
The Shakers eing.beautif ully aud their
tunes are remarkably pretty, sprightly
and quick In character, and have a won
derfully fascinating air. The rich, deep
bass voices hannonizo perfectly with the
clear, sweet and high tenors and so
pranos. Almost irresistibly the feet and
hands of all commence keeping time
with rythmical beats. Soon the entire
body of Shakers are moving around the
singers. As the muslo Increases the
men and women olrcllng around bo
como so imbued with tho beating of the
notes that their bodies Bwing nnd rock,
their feet dance and shnflle, tbelr hands
and arms swing and beat the air, all In
perfect keeping with tho muslo. This
grows more Intenso until they all drop
from Bheer fatigue. Quietness again
reigns for nearly an hour, when the
same perfonnance Is gone over, and then
over again, until sundown, when all re
pair to the dormitories to enjoy the only
meal in the year In each other's com
pany, for on every other day the men
and women eat by themselves.
The Christmas dinner of thebuakers
is not like the Christmas dinner ot the
world's peoplo. There are no wines, fruits
nor delicacies. They have turkeys,
ducks, chickens and plain bread and
butter and vegetables of every kind,
well cooked and In the greatest abun
dance. The women occupy one side of
tho table, tho men the other. The elder
sits at the head and invokes divine bless
ing, then each man and woman rises al
ternately nnd lifting their right hand
say, "God is love." They then begin
eating, and during the meal not a word
Is spoken, each one helping himself or
herself to what they desire. They drink
an enormous quantity of milk during
the meal. At the conclusion of the
Christmas dinner all rise and sing. The
clear voices of the celibates make tho
banquet room ring with a soft and
charming melody. . The hands and feet
of all keen time.
After the song the elder raises his eyes
heavenward and chanta a prayer in
which all join, after which they inarch
from the room in couples, the men to
gether and the women by themselves,
and go to their dormitories. The re
mainder of the night, while the world
outside is enjoying itself In every con
ceivable dissipation. Is given up to song
and prayer, and all night long tho voices
of the Shaker sisters and brothers are
heard through the halls.
The Shakers are kind hearted and gen
erous. They are very hospitable, and It
is one of their principles to entertain and
honor all who come Into their little
world, For days before Christmas they
find great pleasure in sending good
things to the poor In the neighborhood,
and no matter bow poor a man may be,
he Is sure of a good Christmas dinner ii
