Bangor, Pa.T. Hinker.

No. 3. Numerical.
The Christmas season of great joy
Comes not to all without alloy.
For soon will follow, in its line,
The day our bills we 3, 2, 9. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are they
Who view this time without dismay—
Who have no fear to 12, 10, 11, 4—
Dread I. O. U's, given long before. Such trying times must us befall,
Still, a complete we wish to all.
And hope you may pull safely through,
8, 1, 7, 6 your bills fall due.
Philadelphia. Pa.F. Lasher.
