SIXTY YEAES AGO. fir-.TUNISCKNUKSOF ITS CKI.EIJKATION Dr. Ilulli'.eu'ii Comparisons of tlie Old lime ciiriHiiiiiis. Fer the Christmas Istellkhclr. " Te cvei v one il mu-t be clear. That Christmas comes but once a year." Christinas day is net new what it was sixty j'cars age or perhaps that is net the most proper way te state it I should have Eaid, that popular festival sixty years age was net what it is te-day ; and by saying this, I de net menu that it was less sincere, less expressive and less significant than its mere magnificent, mere expensive and mere pronounced successor of the. present period. .Sixty years age a verj' considerable portion of the Christian community of the American States practically manifested no special recognition of Christmas day, as a Christian festival; and this was especi ally se in the Eastern States, whatever re gard they may have entertained for it from the standpoint of piety. Possibly the pres ent generation may be tee sensational, tee ostentatious and tee elaborate in its mani festations of display; but even this might lie looked upon with commendable indul gence, se long as wc felt sure that the whole w.ib net merely "a tinkling cymbal and sounding brass." But, whether as an external out-birth, or an internal affection, it cannot be denied that the whole Christian world at this day, is influenced by an almost' irresistible im pulse (unaccountable te the many) as seen as the Rubicon of Thanksgiving day is passed, which impels their thoughts Christmas-ward. They may have accorded thanks te a Beneficent Providence for the bounties and blessings of the year ; they may have acknowledged His gifts accord. ing te their respective conception of their value; and new their desires, intents ana purposes are turned towards that time-honored period which furnishes an occasion te bestow or confer these gifts upon each ether. AVhcrcvcr civilization and Christ ianity arc dominant, almost every human being, whether Christian or Gentile, and also te semccxtcnijcwsand Pagans, seems te be moved by a simultaneous impulse te give or receive some token of affection, ceed-will or personal rcgard.as the Advent anniversary approaches. Ne matter hew peer, hew selfish, hew penurious, or hew churlish the individual may be, he is net quite satisfied with himself until he has bowed before the Glft-shrinc or, until the holidays arc numbered with the past, anil no longer rebuke him for his want of prac tical sympathy with a custom that is se universal Gift-making or gift-taking may be perverted or abused. With that I have nothing te de: The value and the motive are clearly within the ability of the giver and the searcher of hearts, and avc have a right te infer that they arc the representa tives of ' Peace en earth, and geed will to ward man." It, however, cannot be the result of mere caprice, or selfish impulse, that the entire Christian world is thus sim ultaneously exercised when the "great an niversary" approaches, whatever may be its faith in the advent which it essays te celebrate. The very air we breathe as the period ncars seems te be mere and mere charged with a peculiar aura, which affects almost every ene as they are affected at no ether period and en no ether occasion throughout the entire year; and, under the impending stimulant te general goodness, they may find themselves mentally, if net audibly, ejaculating, "Glory te Ged in the high est," even though they may profess te have no very definite perception of who or what Ged is, or whether, perhaps, there be any Ged at all; and this is all because Ged ex ists, without regard te human recognition. That there is a misapprehension, and hence an abuse of the Christmas f rstival, which seems te travel side by side with a mere enlightened conception and a mere devotional use of it, does net militate against its real significance in the catagery of fact. At the advent of the first Christ mas en earth, the illiterate but godly minded shepherds who were watching their flecks in or near " Bethlehem of Judea," felt the same influx (because proceeding from the same source) that mankind does te-day, and that the manifestations was the mere perfect or pronounced, was because the medium of communication was mere obedient and mere pure. Te sincerely be be lieve that Jehovah "bewcid the heavens and came down," and became the Emanuci " Ged with us " would have a marvel ous influence in forming that cenjunctinn between Ged and man, through which the anniversary of the Christ-child would be mere properly celebrated and redeemed from cant, hypocrisy and abuse. Of course, the outward manifestation of llin nhrisrmsis festivjil lifts lienn nrjidiinl ! seems te be enlarging the sphere of its 'en orations; but no one new Jiving in a Chris tian country, perhaps, can leek back te the period in his life's experience when there was net some illustration of this festival, however insignificant and humble it may have been. Many of its customs and also gross superstitions were doubtless derived from paganism, eliminated and adapted te the new use. This, however, is net neces sarily disparaging, because some remnants of the ceed and the true have existed among all people en earth, from the earliest dawning of human "society down te the latest. This part el the subject wc waive, ! play mauc te caicr ler me " Uhnstmas because, if the reader turns te the files of trade " if such a trade at all existed, the newspapers of one or two years age, ' Appropriate church services wherever he will find allusions te Christmas, its eri- church societies or church structures ex gins, its festivals, and its order of ebserv- isled were held, but the pregramme of ance among many Christian nations, mere ' herviccs differed very little from ordi erdi ordi numcreus than poetical effusions en " The nary days of worship, except, perhaps, Beautiful Snow." I therefore, also, need I the specially of the subject, net say anything en the Christmas of new, Frem thqpc day6, however, down te the but shall endeavor te recall an episode or se of sixty years age. If Luther's famous Christmas tree was a type of the Christmas trees of Lancaster county, or of the state of Pennsylvania, sixty years age, then I had never seen one, nor heard of one even twelve years later, if such a tree had been erected in a place se large as the city 01 Philadelphia, me knewlege of it must have been confined te the very few, or had net entered into the domestic gossip of the town. There are phantoms of humble little Christmas trees dancing through my mind that belong te periods from one te five years anterior te sixty years age, and one or two 01 them were the subjects 01 records made some years age, hence no further al lusion will be made te them here. During the winter of 1822 and 1823 1 was a member of a farmer's family in the township of Denegal, and then first par ticipated in the erection of a Christmas tree after the "county fashion" of that period se far at least as that locality was concerned. Christmas occurs during the shortest days of the whole year, and people in the country lived somewhat far ther apart than thev de new, hence visits could net readily be made te see hew the people kept the day, therefore families mainly kept it within themselves, and when the day was gene, it was gene for another year; for the morrow brought its usual duties. The tree en this occasion was a low ce dar bush which "we boys" had "spotted" when we were out walnuting as early as the beginning of the previous November. The head of the family was of Irish de scent but had married into a family of 'Pennsylvania Dutch," and had accommo dated .himself te their peculiar ways, and when necessary spoke their peculiar lan guage. Only one of the elder boys, the housemaid and myself, in addition te the "Old Felks, participated in the preparatieu of the tree. All the ethers were the vic tims of the harmless little ruse which pa tents saw lit te resort te once a year, in order te furnish an agreeable surprise and pleasure te their little ones, whose boxes, hats, caps and stockings occupied different nooks and corners te receive the gifts of lhe"Bclls-Nickcl" te geed little boys and girls, and somehow all claimed te be geed oil that occasion at least. But when the Bells-Nickel appeared in his proper person en Christmns eve, with his hideous visage, his bag of nuts, and his long whip, jingling his bells withal, and speaking in a dialect that seemed te have been brought from the confusion of Babel, the chiildrcn were net quite se sure of their goodness, if they did net fly in terror from liis presence and hide themselves under the remotest corner of their beds. The name of Santa Claus, se far as I Gin remember, had then no cur-rc:u-jr in the rural districts of our county. It was the Bells-Nickel that rewarded geed children and punished bad ones, and it was he who filled the stocking legs, the hats, caps and boxes en Christmas night. These gifts te children, and indeed all gifts pass ing between the j'enng and the old were scvcially tcrmeJ a i"Christ-kindly," but as little was heard and known of Kriss-Kin-glc as of Santa Claus. Christmas-gifting, in pfopertian te the population, was just as common as it is new, but it was net se extensive, nor se expensive, nor yet se artificial as new at least net in the country. People generally gave what they made or produced with their own hands, but whatever it was, it was designated as a Christ-kindly. Nene or at least very few would have thought of purchasing :i gift te bestow upon an other. Indeed, except a book of some kind, or a piece of jewelry, there was very little specially provided for the Christmas trade, and that was confined te the larger towns. In the country there was an annual butch ering just before Christmas, and many gitts were in the form of "puddings and sau sages." Our Christmas tree en this occasion may have been four feet high (about the height of a boy of ten years old) and every avail able branch contained an article of some kind, and its base was garnished by Hie Christ-kindlies of the children, which con sisted of c" henshing," or mittens, stock ings, car-warmers, shoes usually d" Mon roes " satchels, scissors and thimbles, for the girls ; cakes, nuts, raisins, apples, pears, and such like articles, all of domes tic use. The tree was decorated with gin ger bread cut in various grotesque forms, remote approximations te men, women, horses, dogs, deer, roosters, fishes, stars, hearts, sheep, goats, cows and even the ' bad man " diamonds, houses, rings, etc. and these were embellished with a mixture of starch and sugar, which gave them a frightful, if net a comic leek. These with apples., here and there a bunch of raisins, or a c" matzebaum," obtained from a town shop and brightly colercd"roscttcs," com posed of scarlet, yellow and green flannel, made up the tout ensemble of the decora tions et the Christmas tree of the country, and even this was by no means universal, for then, ns perhaps new," there were large religious communities that never made any demonstration of this kind at all. They may have baked a special batch of sweet-cakes for their children, but neth ing mere except, pernaps, me usual relig ious service. The custom, however, was mere com mon in the towns, and there, tee, being mere accessible te the stores, ether deco rations were improvised, such as glass beads, oranges or lemons, mint-drops like tows of red and white buttons en slips of paper toys and candies, accord ing te the pecuniary circumstances of the host; but most of the toys, even, were home-made. Where pine, cedar or juniper could net be obtained, laurel was substi tuted for the tree. Denning the '' woolsy weolsy woelsy lindsy " winter Sunday suit for the first time was often put off te Christmas day, and greatly added te the anticipated pleas ures of the occasion. But no matter hew little the tree was. or hew scauty its em bellishments, it did net in the least dimin ish the general happiness of tlic festival. There, en a side table, tee, steed the great mug of cider, with its accompanying glasses, Hanked by dishes efpplcsand cakes, with baskets of walnnts, hickory nuts and chestnuts for all who came and the busy ' chops " of the participants were actively exercised from early morn until late at night. Although " us boys " by our participa tion in erecting and " trimming " the Christmas tree, were enabled te sec "clear through " the deccptieu of the Bells Nick el, and knew he was a sham, yet when his personater visited the house which he us ually did early en Christmas eve we were terribly afraid of him, and with some reason tee, for he could make himself pain fully tangible if he chose. The superstition that at twelve o'clock en Christmas night the cattle in their stalls nil kncpl ilnwn nnrt nnv " no i... i,j -- - - Uw..u ....u jr.uj, UO UUfO llilll concocted a scheme te test, but wlieu the lw,n. ..;,.n,i . i.n.i .. i 1 . hour arrived wc had net the moral or phy- sicai courage ie uissipaic me charmed il lusion ; and, instead thereof, we hurried off te bed. Of course, sixty years age there was no confectioneries, ice cream saloons or toy shops as they exist at the present period, nor any that made the remotest approxima tion te them except, perhaps, in such places as New Yerk, Philadelphia or Balti more. Limited stocks of this species of merchandise were Kept Dy dry goods and grocery stores, by drug stores and cakc-and- beer-shops, but there was no special dis- present time, the Christmas demonstrations have net gene backward, but have been gradually increasing, and are likely te con tinue ee, and any attempt te inculcate a sentiment abrogating them would excite as much indignation as Paul's preaching did among the image'makers of Athena. And there is no reason why they should net continue, se far as they are legitimate. Repudiate or abrogate' the 4th of July and the dissipation of America's liberty is likely te fellow. Obliterate Christmas and Chris tianity is likely te become weakened or dissipated, for it would be the beginning of the obliteration of Deity. It is the " nlane and continent" of Ged's manifes tatien of Himself te men, which is the only medium of conjunction with Him who, "out of Christ is a consuming fire." This spiritual fermentation moved the human mind sixty years age, has moved it, annu ally at least, ever since, and with increas ing intensity moves it te-day. Grantelltjs. a. Thi? let in. in the country, was usually pronounced " Bell-Snlckel," and by way of Anglicism was tortured into Hell Nicholas, nil el which was in allusion te St. Nicholas, the patron saint of boys.ne doubt. It was once common in Germany, and. perhaps, is se still, for the children ei the family te assemble en the eve et St. Nicholas (Dec. fi) when nuts and sw etmeats would be Uistributcd.aniengtlieni, but IT any naugntv children were present, in stead el a present they would get a whack of thcKIaubaut. This custom, in this country, somehow, was transferred te, and became a part et our Christmas sports. b This tci in was pronounced "Krisht Kind ly " and it, with Kiiss Kringlc, are doubtless cei millions of Christ Kindchen, or "Christ child." I had been disposed te regard Krlss Kringlc as a mongrel translation ef-Chrlst-Kindchcn into English, but Dr. Brccncr quotes it as a Dutch (Ilellaudbh) term. c. "Henshing" is a corruption of Hand scliu. or handshee. and these were et two klmN, mainly mittens and gloves, called "F.iu-jlitheiishlng ";and "FliiKer-benshlng," or first-gloves and finger-gloves. In later days mittens was abbreviated te mitts, but the "mitts" et that day was applied te a sort of liandceveiiug worn by women, in which only the wrist and part of the band was covered, all the lingers ami part et the thumb being ex posed. These mitts sometimes extended te the elbows, and they were known by that name many years atterwaids, and perhaps it still obtains. d.

We don't like the system, but try te make every day equally geed for buyers te come te us. Yet new and again there are special reasons that warrant stepping out from our usual course. Such a time has come te Oak Hall, and we have te announce A GRAND "OCCASION." 1881, se far, has been the largest year's business OAK HALL HAS EVER DONE. Mr. Jehn Wanamaker has this season watched ever personally and supervised the old house in a -measure like in old times AND NOW desires te say he has determined te put the annual sales far beyond anything ever reached before in the annals of the Retail Cloth ing business in the United States. There is net a day te lese, as the season is passing. We have therefore prepared all the inducements we can eiler and they GO INTO EFFECT IMMEDIATELY. Years age we were overloaded with goods, and we frankly said se. Wc have no secrets about our business. We take the people into our confidence and ask for a return of confidence, AND GET IT, because the people find out exactly what can be depended en. We sold out long age all our surplus stock. Five furniture cars would carry all the old stock new in our double six-sterv building, and while we de se large a business and size3 break up se rapidly as they de, we always expect te have just as much as wc have te-day. STOW THEJST, THIS is te say That this " Occasion " is based en the cleanest, newest, best stock we can possibly get together. NEW GOODS OF SPLENDID CHARACTER, And made for the purpose of driving up and along the sales te far outdo the best endeavors of former years. SUMMING UP THE INDUCEMENTS, THEY AEE 1. A stock of goods, most of it " iust born." clean and beautiful, arriving dailv from our workrooms. 2. A "right smart " deduction from usual prices, " something that can be seen." 3.

It would be very easy for any one te mark up prices at the beginning of a season and then go down te what wetdd be en paper large reductions, but it must be borne in mind our system of business, taking back goods and returning money when our customer can come back in ten minutes and receive the money back after being at another store, or week's after purchase, keeps us en our guard te have our prices the very lowest. THIS REDUCTION, Therefore, must be manifest te these who will. think a moment, or leek the goods ever and compare elsewhere. We have the (perhaps) pardonable pride in our business te push it beyond anything ever done before, and take this method te de it.
