A TALK WITH SANTA OLAU3.

Ono Christmnsoti * Joel linker was in a
unhappy mood. Ho was lonc oino
and miserable ; llio chimes making merry
Christmas tnusio oiitsulo disturbed r.ithur
thin soothed him , the jmglo of Ihe sleigh
bills frctlod him. and the sluill whistling
of the wind around the corners of the
hon = o and up and down the ehnmiei
seemed lo grate harshly on his ears.
"Humph"said Joel , vvcanlv , "ClirUt-
mas is nothin' to mo , there was a time
w hen it meant a great de il , but lh.it was
long ago hfly j cars is a long stretch to
look back over. There is nothin' in
Christmas now , nothin' for mo at least ,
it is so long since Santa Ulaus runinm
bead mo that I venture to say ho has for
gotten that there ever was such a poison
as Joel Haker in all the world It u > ed
to bu diileront , Santa Clans u ed to think
a great deal of mo when I was a bov
Ah ! Christmas nowadajs ain't what it
w.us in the good old time no , not what
it iHed to be "
As Joel was absorbed in Ida distressing
thoughts he bee line aw are very sudili nly
that soim-boily was cMitoring or trying to
enter the loom. Fust came a drift of
cold uir , then a scraping , grating sound ,
then a strange shiillliiig , mid then .ves ,
then , all at ouec , Joel saw a p nr ol fat
legs and a still fader bed } dangle down
the chimney , followed 'prcseiiil.v b.v a
lour' white benid , above wiiich appeared
a joll.v red nose ami two bright tw inkling
eyes , while over the head and fniduad
was dtawn a Inreap , white wilh snoiv-
Hakes.
"Ha , ha , " chuckled the fat , jollj
stiangcr , eincrgiii' ' from the uhiinne
and standing well to one s do ol the
heaithstonc , "ha , ha , they don't have thu
big , wide cliinino s thev used lo build ,
but Ihoy can t keep bantu Clans out no ,
they can't keep Santa Clans out1 Ha , ha ,
ha Though tlio chimney weie no biggei
than a gas pipe Santa Clans would slidu
down it1"
It didn t icquirc a second glance to ns-
suic Joel that the new-eoiuor was indeed
baiila Clans Joel knew the good old
s mil oh , jcs and ho had scje.ii him nueo
before and , although th it was when Joel
was a little boj , he had never foigottcu
how Santa Clans looked.
Nor had Santa Clans forgotten Joel , al
though Joel thought he had , for now
Saura Clans looked kindly at Joel and
smiled and said. "Meriy Claistmaslo
jou. Joel1"
' "Ihank you , old Santa Claus , " replied
Joel , "but I dou t believe it's gom' to be
a verv nieuy Christmas It's been so
long since ( I ve had a merry Christmas
tint I don't believe I'd know how to act if
1 had one "
"Let's see , " said Santa Claus , "it mu t

Do von remember if"
" 1 iciuembur it well , " answered Joel
" 1 had made up my mind to do aw ako
and see Sinta Claus , 1 d he ird tell otjou ,
but I'd never been sou , ami Brother Ot s
and f concluded wo'd ho awake and watch
lor sou lo come. "
Santa Cliuis shook his head repioaeh-
fully.
"J'hat was very wiong , " said he , "for
I'm so scares that if I'd Know n s'ou boss
wuiu avvako I'd never have como down

" 1ml Otis couldn't keen awake , " c\-

icplied Joel "Miuo w.is red and had

'Snow 0,110011' in gilt letters. "
" 1 icmember tho-u sleds distinetls , "

"You bet the sluls up against the wall , "
continued Joel , "nnd then s'ou lllli.d the
slockm's. " .
"Thcio were six of 'em , as I recollect * "
said Sanla Clans
"Let mo sco , " queried Joel. "Thero

filritcd banla Claus. "You know 1 put

"At any rate , " said Joel , "yon filled all

"Well , it was as much as I could do to
