As be stood on the comer, pale and ' 1 cold. ' And watched the crowd go by. I < "But maybe it's something nice and | j And good to eat," said he ; "They seen to be carrying bundles , borne. 1 'Most all of 'em, only me. " "Say, mister, wouldn't you like a ] shine? N It doean't cost much, you know ; A"d it's sure to be quite a lift to me, , : If it'a onlyfa cent or so." But the stranger hurried himself along, With nothing cheerful to say. He thought of bis borne, and the coming Joy Of a gladsome Christmas day. ' "There's' none of 'em wants a'shine, " "said Tim, "And none of 'em seem t' see How cold it is in the street fnight For a poor little chap like me, X wish I had me an overcoat. But anything isn't mine ; Vdon't believe there's no Santy Clans— 1 Say, mister, have a ahine?" But Tim met never a kindly glance And never a pitying^eye, Aa he thought of the borne be had heard about That is somewhere up in the sky. He saw a church with its open door, j And the light and the warmth were there. So he thought he would follow the people in. If nobody seemed to care. In the church a bright and hapbv throng Sang praises and hymns of joy. But no one noticed the shrinking form Of the ragged and shivering" boy. He crept in softly, and through ' the aisle He wandered with noiseless feet. Then sat him down in the -further end Of a softly cushioned seat. The hymn was ended, a moment more | And all was solemn and still. "I will talk thiaevening, " the preacher said, "Of charity's sweet good will. Go out in the byways and feed the poor, Tla a bleaseo Christmas then : It is thus we show our brotherly love. And the people said, "Amen!" They sang of joy and they sang of peace Aod charity was! their theme ; But of half the want there is in the world They did not even dream. Then out of the church they went once more, To homes of love and of light ; They thought no more of the poor, but said : "What a splendid sermon tonight." The sexton, after they all were gone, And the lights were low and dim. In a corner pew found a blacking box And the form of little Tim. "Come, boy, this isn't the place for you. Get out in the streeta !" he said. There came no answer. The sexton saw That the little boy was dead. Oh, friends, be careful, for hymns of praise Are small j. there is more to do. secure there is do one needy there. Close by, in"b neighboring pew. And when you go to your happy homes, The loved ones to merrily greet, . Remember, many|a3>oar coalites On many another street There may be near you a form tfakt is cold, A child who is crying far bread ; To then is ^Christmas naught but a WitTcmeanuv lost, or dead, . *0£.

oft they perish because the flame Of charity bums so dim, For many tbere are in this world Of j ours. JE Alone, like little Tim. F ARTHUR LEWIS TUBBS. « j Sheet Music | You heard the latest jongst.
