"" CHRISTMAS PRESENTS,
A: STORY FOR THE HOLIDAYS
By T. S. Arthur
'Didn't he make you a, present of anything, ,
tizzy 1" asked Margaret Granger of her cousin
tizzy Green.
"No, not even of a atrawbenry cushion," spoke
up tizzy's sisterJane,"tbsi hem/gilt have bought
for a sixpence. I think he's a right down mean.
selfish, Stingy fellow, so I do ; and if he doesn't
keep tizzy on bind and water when be gets her,
by name's not Jane Green."
"I wouldn't have him." said Margaret, jesting,
yet half in earnest. "Let Christmas go by and
not melte his sweetheart or sister a present of the
moat trifling value! He must bave a penny soul.
Why, Harry tee sent me the 'Leaflets of Mem
ory' and a pair of the sweetest flower-vases you
'ever saw, and he only comes to see me as a friend.
And Cousin William made me a prevent of a
splendid copy of 'Mrs. Hall's Sketches,' the moat
interesting book I ever read. Besides, I received
lots of things. Why, my table is full of presents."
"You have been quite fortunate," said Lizzy, in
a quiet voice; "much more so than Jane and I, if
to receive a great, many Christmas presents is to
' be considered fortunate. •
"But don't you think Edward might have sent
you some token of good-will and affection in this
1 holiday season, when every one is giving or recei
ving presents'!" asked Margaret.
"Nothing-of the kind was needed, Cousin
/doggy, as an expression of his feelings towards
me," replied tizzy. "He knew that I understood
their true quality, and felt that any present would
have been a useless formality."
,1
"You can't say the same in regard to Jane. He
might have passed her the usual' comptimetV
the season." f' •
• "Certainly he might," said' Jane. "tizzy
needn't try to excuse him after that lame fashion.
Of course, there is no cause for the. omission but
iineanness—that's my opinion, and I speak it out
boldly."
elt isn't right to say that,_ sister," remarked
Lim. "Edward has other reasons for omitting
the -prevalent Custom et this season—and; good
remains, lam well assured. As,to the. chaige of
meanness, I don't think the fact you allege a suf.
ficient ground for making it."
, "Well, I tra.,tben," 1131111 Cousin Margaret:—
1 eWity, if I were a young man and engaged in
marriage to a lady. I'd sell my shoes but what I'd
give her something as a Christmas present." -
"Yes—or borrow or beg the money," chimed
in Jane.
•Every one must do as he or she thinks heat,"
replied Lazy. "As for me, Iso content to N.
.ceive no holiday gift, being well satisfied that
meanness on the part of Edward ,has nothing to
du with it."
• - •
But notwithstanding Liuy said this, ebe could
not help feeling a little disappointed—more, per
haps', on account of the thing than from any sus
picion that meanness, as alleged by Jane, had
anything to do with the omission.
.1 wish Edward had made Lizzy some kind of
present." said Mrs. Often to her huvband, a day
or two after the holiday bad passed: ••if-it had
been only for the look of the thing. Jens has
been teasing her about it ever since, and calls it
nothing but meanness in Edward. And I'm afraid
be is a little close."
'"lletter that be should be so than too free." re
plied Mr. Green; "though I murt confess that a '
dollar or two, or even ten dollars, spent at Christ.
mu in *present fat his intended bride, could bard
lf have been set doarh to the score of prodigality. 1
It does look mean, certainly." .
"Be I. doing very wall,"

I suppose it doesn't cost him over four or five hun
deed dollars to live—at least it ought not to do so."
.13e - has bought himself s snug little house, 1
am told."
he's done that, heir done very well," said
Mr. Green; "and I can forgive him for not spend.
ing his money in Christmas presents, that are no.
vet of much use, ray the best you will of them.—
I'd rather Edward would have a comfortable house,
to put his wife in than see him loading her down
before marriage, with presents of one foolish thing
or another."
"True. But it wouldn't have hurt him to have
given the girl somethimt, if it had only been,* book,
a purse or some such trifle."
..ror which trifles he would have been as strong.
