In Servia they keep Christmas eve in a somewhat peculiar way. The fa ther of the family goes into the wood and cuts down a straight young oak. choosing the most perfect he can lind. He brings it in. saying, "CJood even ing and a happy Christmas," to which those present say, "May God grant both to thee, and mayest thou have rielies and honor!" Then they throw over him grains of corn. Presently the young tree is placed upon the coals, where It remains until Christmas morning, which they salute by repeat ed lii iiigs of a pistol. The national dish in Servia is pork. The poorest family in Servia will pinch themselves all through the year so as to have money enough to buy a pig at Christmas. Skewered to a long piece of wood, the pig is turned over a blaz ing lire until cooked, the guests watch ing the process with Increasing inter est. After dinner stories are told and sung. Santa Claus, who, in the person of jui honored guest, is present to receive instead of to give presents, departs, after the feast, decorated with a long ring of cakes around his neck and laden with such gifts as his friends can bestow.—Baltimore Amer ican. ON CHRISTMAS GIVING. Tlie Problem of C'hnoNiiiit Suitable Prenent* nt Yuletlde. Tor melancholy proof of man's genu ine incapacity we have but to turn to the belated creatures who fit Christmas time write daily to the newspapers for advice. Like Emerson, they feel that a present is "due"to somebody, and, like Emerson, they are "puzzled what to give." There is something really pathetic in a letter from a "class of boys" who want to be told what they shall give their teacher. lie is thirty years old, they say, and a "remarkable mathe matician." Perhaps some shadowy de sire to make the punishment lit the crime prompts this last bit of informa tion. I Jut it is matched by schoolgirls who write: "What is a nice present for a teacher'? She is a foreigner and teaches a foreign language. She is very dark and has a somewhat impa tient disposition. l'lie Heir of it ed dy t't'c" would seem an excellent present for this person, if only she were able to read it. Isut the editor is perhaps vuaware of ilie improving character of Miss Yonge's stories. He lias noth ing more appropriate to suggest than a gold pen or a piece of statuary, neither of which is warranted a cure for impatience. A married woman complains mourn- | fully that she has to give a present to j an old gentleman of eighty-two "who j has everything he wants." It never oc- i curs to her for a moment to spare him j tlie added possession of a something i he doesn't want. ?'hc utmost length ! her ingenuity can go is to write to a ! newspaper for advice. Another woman i feels moved to send "some useful trifle" ! to a missionary, and a young man, who ! tiigns himself Jasper, has a painful emergency to face. "I know two sis ters who are nearly of an age." ho writes. "I wish to give them both Christmas presents. Ought I to send the same thing to each? Their tastes, ] I believe, are different. 1 know one if the young ladies much better than i'T sister."—Agnes Jtepplier in Lippin ■ott's.
