A Christmas Carol
By CHRISTINA G. ROSSETTI
Lo, newborn Josus,
Soft and weak and email,
Wrapped in baby's bands
By his mother's hands,
LordGodofalll
Loi-d God of Mary,
Whom his lips caress
While he rooks to rest
On hor milky breast
In helplessness.
Lord God of shepherds
Flocking through tho cold,
Flocking through the dark
To tho only ark,
The only fold.
Lord God of all things,
Bo they near or far,
Bo they high or low,
Lord of storm and snow,
Angel and star.
Lord God of all men,
My Lord and my God,
Thou who lovest me,
Keep mo close to thee
By staif and rod.
Lo, newborn Josus,
Loving great and small,
Love's freo sacrifice,
Opening arms and eyes
To ono and all!

USY American men consider
their marriage certificate as
a sort of fully imld up policy
of hnpplncbs. They act as It tho
courtship dayB wero thoso of pay
ing premiums of compliment, cheer
fulness, courtosy, consideration ami
chivalry, and that mnrrlago cuts
off thoso promlums of lovorllko at
tention. Tho only way to get an
absolute guaranteed insurance on
matrimonial happiness Is to keop
paying tho promlums.
These samo men at tholr clubs
often run perilously eloso to tho
(load lino of boredom in tolling
of tho marvelous qualities of their
wives; thoy run tho chromatic
scale of ontliUBlnsin, whllo you won

angolg in heaven wore not modelled

these husbands keep us silent about
tholr appreciation as If It wero
a Mnboulo secret.
Thero Is a great, tondoncy to ns
sumo that this lovo Is known and
I recognized, so why speak of it?
i "Sho knows how much I think of
hor" this Is a dangerous taking for
granted of what should be made
real, pulsing and vital thought,
word and deed.
Thero Is Uttlo danger of over
toiling thts story; it is ofton tho

tlo tndorucsscB of affection.
Ofttlmcs somo Uttlo touch of lov
ing sweetness throws a golden
fitreak of happiness through a life's
wholo day, and an Involuntary hnlf
wiillo and a love-light In tho eyes
born of tho remembranco hours
later toll of tho vitalizing powor
of a scorning trltlo, forgotton, or
porhapB unnoted by him who glad
dens n llfo nnow.
Thoro aro more pcoplo on this
groat big rolling earth hungorlng
for sweetness, tenderness, nnd words
of gentle appreciation, genial confi
dence nnd generous affection, than
aro starving for bread. Such wortta
that woro tho current coin of con
versation boforo marrlago, often
Room withdrawn from circulation
afterward.
With husband nnd wlfo thoso dol
Irato mossongors of affection count
so Uttlo sometimes only a thought
hut It is tho thought that docs
It all. Thoro aro nion who would
no moro think voluntarily of carry
ing homo 'to tholr wives a bunch
of roses Just n bit of sontlmout than
thoy would think of taking homo a
brldgo or n church or two thrco
miles of sea coast.
Continued courtship nftor mar
rlago preserves tho lover In tho
husband and tho uweothcart in tho
wife. Hut courtship is not soli
taire; llko a quarrel. It requires two
to mnko a real success. It Is not
tho wife alone who needs tho gra
cious sweotness of consecrated com
radeship, for husbands who aro built
on tho right lines linvo tho samo
hungor for loving kindness.
Ono of tho most common causes
of tho dccllno of courtship attor
marrlago whoro it does occur, Is
tho disillusion that often comes nf
tor marriage. Whon tho rosy tints
of tho courtbhlp days grow dimmer
thero Is n tendency for tho real
poetry to turn into commonpluco
verso, or oven into the baldest proso.
In tho days boforo marrlago tho
two candidates for follclty aro on

glow of mutual regard ovory latent
virtue blossoms into full flower,
every fulling assumes a roseato Ituo
undor somo charitable Interpreta

go with tho wedding day.
