WR" TW WMN AND
ON CHRISTMAS GIVING
Mien Adak Says That the Wrong Spirit Is Too Fre
h. ' ' aucntlu Scan.
- i
The spirit cf Christmas' giving has from
tlmo Immemorial been landed to tho
' sklcx, but tho revcro ldo of tho picture-
la flOtnowhfit obvious. Too many people
,Klve because they feel they have- to give,
not hecauso they want to irfve. Tho ul
terior motive la all too frequently uppcr
tticet and tbo donor Is Inwardly making
lightning CAlculatlonn ns to proa and cons.
X' think that Christmas often breeds
most unchrlstlanllko eptrtt. And -why?
Tho solution Is not for to seek. A spirit
of commercialism has entered Into this
business of gift-giving. Heaven loves a
Cheerful giver. Hut aro tho majority of
peoplo cheerful glversT Just listen to
soma of tho conversations that go on
everywhere tit this season of tho year,
, and then pause duly and meditate. This
'superfluity of slft-glvlng Is too often
ftt bottom but a travesty of tho spirit or
kindliness.
'Weed I really (rive a sift to Mrs.
Jcnea this year?" exclaims Mrs. Smith
With a look of thunder on her brow. "It
Is too absurd I Last Christmas she gave
mo that hideous crochet nntlmleiusar that
she had no uso for herself. It must have
come over with tho Pilgrim Fathers by
the looks of HI Every time she comes
to call sho grazes around tho parlor for
It and I guess sho knows qulto well that
I havo thrown It out. But I know she'll
expect mo to give her something tills
year; so I guess I'll havo tot"
Mrs. Jones, too. Is not without her
crlevanco. "I wish Mrs. Smith would
stop sending over a Christmas present.
Her things nro so expenslvo that I feci
',' real mean giving her the things I do,
' but thee I can't afford anything hotter.
I don t caro much about Mrs, Smith,
1 anyhowl"
Tho motlvo of Christmas giving cannot
always bear too deep an analysis unfor
tunately. Added to the spirit of commer
cialism there Is tho "take-alt-and-glvo-nothlng"
spirit. Christmas Is regarded
by a certain typo of person ns nn occa
sion for accumulating a store of useful
El ft a. If tho gifts do not prove useful
or acceptable, the receiver has been
known to take them back to tho store
and get a certain percentage of the money
expended on them by tho giver. This
seems a peculiar proceeding, but It Is
nono tho less true.
A spirit of rtvnlry often proves tho
actuating forco In Christmas giving.
Mamie gives Badto a silver-backed toilet
set. Then sho feels really Irritated when
her friend presents her with a gold-ntted
dressing-case, and. Instead of accepting
the handsome present with gratitude,
feels perfectly aggrieved that 'Its magnifi
cence has quite eclipsed her less expenslvo
gift.
In the department stores at present one
overhears many groans from weary and
heated shoppers. "Oh, how I do detost
Christmas tlmo and this wretched pres
ent buying!" I heard a woman exclaim
tho other day. Obviously she spoke out
of the fulness of her heart. Her appear
ance carried out the lamentation of her
voice. Her faco Was flushed and she
wore a worried look. Her hat was awry
and part of her hair was straggling down
. In unbecoming wisps. She carried an um
brella, a fur coat, a muff, a chain-purse

a melancholy victim of this modorn craze
or cnristtnns shopping.
Tho linhlt of gift giving Is a very de
lightful thing, but It can be overdone.
Let us confine our presents to those for
whom we really care, or to those for
whom wo have a sincere respect and re
gard. Beyond that, tho donating of gifts
Is not only unnecessary but quite Insin
cere. Kot a gift should be tho outward
token of remembrance and esteem.
Whore neither of these feelings exists, It
merely becomes a token of emptiness and
Insincerity. EM.EN ADAIR.
Snapshots in the Market
Meat prices remain rather stable. The
follotvlng may bo a suggestion for the
Sunday dinner:
lllb roast of beef Is IS cents to 30
cents a pound.
Icg of lamb Is 25 cents a pound.
Tvimb chops cost 26 cents to SO cents a
pound.
Stvcctbrfads range In price from 40
cents to $1 n pound.
veal cutlets arc 35 cents a pound,
Fresh ham Is 0 cents a pound.
Mutton chops ore 35 cents to 50 cents
a pound.
Sucking pigs am $3.75 to $1.75.
Guinea fowl are $1.33 a pair,
Squabs, per pair, are 65 cents to 90
cents.
Sirloin stenk costs 33 cents a pound.
Itonst veal In 5 cents a pound.
Chickens, frying, are IS cents a pound.
Stewing chickens nre 23 conts a pound.
Broiling chicken aro 20 conts a pound.
The Successful Housekeeper
The young wife who does hor own cook
ing should bo most careful In tho matter
of 'the evening meal. This Is the time
when her husband comes home tired out
after tho tnistlo and rush of tho day.
Ho wants a good, nourishing supper, one
which Is choson with an eyo to his tnvor
lto dishes. Nothing, absolutely nothing.
Is more discouraging to a man than to
como home anticipating a wcll-cookod,
wholesomo meal and a nlco quiet smoke
afterward, and to find his wlfo In tears
over tho biscuits and a freezing, out-of-season,
delicatessen meal spread care
lessly on tho table.
Women make many other foolish mis
takes In this connection. They order tho
same things week In and week out, for
ono thing. A mnn requires almost un
limited variety In his bill of fare or every
thing tastes alike. The Intelligent house
keeper will mark every day's meals down
In a book and keep them. Then If she
gets stuck she can go back several weeks
and got a suggestion. Tho papers are
full of domestic sclenco columns theso
days, and the advice of experts in the
culinary art Is always helpful. You can
get an Inflnlta series of dishes and direc
tions for preparing them and helpful
household Ideas In all tho modern maga
zines. These arc boxed on tho experience
of older women, wives and mothers, and
will save the young wife many a trial.
Don't undervalue the Importance of the
dinner table. It has a great bearing upon
the happiness of married life. Every ohe
with sense admits that It Is the duty of
any wlfo to keep her husband In as good
honlth and temper as possible. The way
In which the supper question Is managed
has a bearing of the gravest Importance
on this matter. In other words, "Feed
tho bruto."

How One Girl Made Good
The Little Soubrotte
The girl who works for her own living
and Is making a success of things is
nearly always Interesting to meet, and
Miss Alma Fleming, the gay little sou
brette, at present playing hero In bur
lesque, Is no exception to the rule.
"Yes, I love my work nnd am very
anxious to get right to the top of the
ladder," she said earnestly, "I have been
working for five years now, ever since I
graduated from Grammar school at the
age of 14. I started by singing "In the
spotlight" In moving picture shows out
home In Indiana. It was nlco sort of
work. I used to stand right back of the
piano and wear my hair like a boy and
a tailored waist and collar and tie, so
when the light was tumid on me, the
audience used to wonder whether I really
was a boy or not."
"What did you do after the 'spotlight'
performance?"
"Just what all other girls with ambi
tion have done I went to New York, the
Mecca of the would-be successful!" Miss
Fleming smiled remlnlscently and one's
thoughts drifted to the vision of the
plucky little girl, who, "Salamandor"-wlse
and at the quite Immature age of 15 had
faced the loneliness of a boarding
house garret and the dreary tramping
from agent to agent in search of work.
"I wasn't long In getting work, how
ever," she continued quickly, "I got quite
a good cabaret Job, and held It for a long
while. Then my present manager heard
me sing, and gave me this opportunity
to make good, I felt so thankful when
I succeeded In pleasing him, not only for
my own sake, but also for my mother.
She Is quite dependent on me, you see,
and has been ever since X was 11. I like
her to havo everything she wants, and my
only regret Is that I can't see her
oftener, as she's out In Indiana!"
"Don't you rind the two-performances-a-day
business fatiguing?"
"Oh, no!" was the quick reply, 'Why!
out West, where we are now going, wo
give two performances on Sundays as
well, Uurlesque Is the best paying busi
ness, I think, and I like It Immensely.
There aro too many lay-offs In vaude
ville." "What about the temptations of the
stage?"
"Why. It's up to the girl herself every
time, and a sensible girl can take care
of herself! As a matter of fact, the
home girl has Just as many temptations
as we do, but the difference Is that peo
ple always give her the benefit of the
doubt. We stay in each town about a
week, and the first thing I do after set
tling down Is to hunt up a church, You
may think this a little strange for a bur
lesque actress, but I have always stuck
to this plan. I find the church service
very soothing after the week's work, and
I would not miss it for anything."
"What qualities do you think the stage
calls forth?"
"All one's patience, and all one's tactl"
was the quick reply. "The life makes
you charitable and broad-minded. Ian.
Lots of pluck and grit are demanded, and
you need to be very philosophical In fact,
quite a stole to make gooU. All the
same, I think It a splendid profession, and
J am quite In love with It"

if she Is trying to think up a "last min

HOW TWO GIRLS SPENT KM AS
An Interesting Chat
Four glrl3 were gathered around the
tea table. As soon as the little coppc
kettle had begun Its quaint singing Mar
Jorle dropped In tho fragrant tea-ball.
Polly drew out the cups, dropping cream;
sugar, lemon, clover, etc.. In as her
friends directed.
"Oh, dear, what can I do about this?
You know I Just spent hours making up
a list for my Christmas purchases, and
lure I've gone and lost It! I wanted to
fcliop all day tomorrow and bo done with
it all at once. What would you advise,
Dolly?" asked her twin sister, frowning
at the little English muffins.
"My dear, how can you bother about
such a silly thing? Surely you can re
member the things and write them again.
By the way, do you remember how we
spent Christmas last year."
"Do tell us about It I Just hate to
wait for things, nnd you can entertain
us until the tea draws."
"Well, last Christmas we left college
to spend the holidays with our new
Uncle Oeorge. We had never seen him
before, and he had married Aunt Grace
Just a few months before. He Is one of
those men who have queer notions about
girls traveling alone Imagine It! Any
how, he said he'd meet our train at some
silly little station near Philadelphia at 10
In the morning.
"We landed at this' place and not a
sdul was on the platform. No sign of
Uncle George I My dear, we were scared
to deathl There wasn't a soul In sight,
and here It was Christmas Day, and we
were nlone In a stupid, dirty little town!
A snubby-nosed nowsboy Informed us
that there was only one hotel. One look
at It was endugh. It was one of those
commercial places where the men smoked
In the front windows, with their feet on
the backs of chairs, - - .
"Then Dolly got an Idea. 'Let's gc..
visit Snubby's home!' she said. The TJoor
little kid was tickled to death with the
ride In a real taxlcab. We found he had
sic little brothers and sisters, and you
wouldn't believe; me when I tell you that
they were going to make a Christmas din
ner of some old potatoes! Well, we Just
bundled the children up and piled them
Into the taxi (you never saw such a dis
gusted driver; his face looked like the
breaking up of a hard winter) 'and we
bought a huge turkey and cranberries,
fruit, sweet potatoes, candy, celery, beans,
carrots, cream puffs, cake galore, pie and
Just bunches of cookies! We wound up
by Initiating the driver with a frtexer
full of Ice cream. My, but he was Jarred."
"You couldn't tell him and the freezer
apart," giggled her twin.
"To make a long story short, we set
the table and Mrs. Bnubby whose name
was McFadd en cooked the meal. Poor
soul, she hadn't cooked one for so long
that she didn't do herself proud by any
means., While we were romping a,nd

SUNDAY NIGHT SUPPER
By MRS. CHRISTINE FREDERICK
Atmton or -raa nbtt HousmcBErmo."
rerhaps no meal In tt en""1 WMk
has such peculiar qualities as the Sunday
night supper. On weekdays there Is rt
continuous procession of regular, stnld
dinners, of definite courses, set In tho
routine way. Thero Is frequently, too,
tho chance that tho weekday evening
meal will bo hurried or dolayed becauso
of a congested subway or that fatal man
from out of town who kept your husband
nt the last moment.
But Sunday night la frequently and de
lightfully tha maid's night off, the family
Is alono by Itself, or thero are a few
guests In tho most Intimate, leisurely
way. The good Sunday dinner hns beon
appreciatively stowed away, and no defi
nite tlmo has been set for that slight
refreshment tho Sunday night supper calls
to mind. If wo feel llko eating nt 7 wn
will do go, or If hunger does not approach
until 0, no matter.
Tho Sunday night supper Is n variable
feat. It can be set according to our
appetites. It also violates all canons of
"courses." It Is different, odd, piquant,
and most easily served. Indcod, the chief
virtue of the Sunday night supper should
be its easy service. Alt sliver and chlua
can bo arranged beforohand on a com
modious tray. If there Is to be a hot
beverago llko cocoa, cofTce or bouillon,
ono of the vacuum bottles enn bo Im
pressed Into servlco bo that thero nocd
be no delay over this Item nt the last
moment.
Of course, tho chafing dish and small
table cooking equipment lend themselves
excellently to tho Sunday night supper.
Tho main dish, Indeed, can etnergo chnf-lng-dlshward

Remedies for the Tired Girl
Havo you ever been so tired that every
bono In your body ached, and even If you
did lie down you wero too tired to rest?
That's the wily most peoplo feel thC30
days, especially tho women who nre en
thusiastic Christmas shoppers. Tho girls
behind tho counter are defac out when
closing' tlmo comes, because nothing is
more tiring than to stand all day. Tho
little chnngo they get for recreation la In
tho evening, so that tho quickest remedy
for the tired feeling has to bo taken be
fore S o'clock.
Ordinary sitting In a chair or lying
down on a couch will not prove to be tho
most restful of positions. While you caso
ono part of tho body, tho other pnrts
remain as tired and strained as ever.
Perhaps you may not know the value of
putting your feet up as high as they will
comfortably go. It is not elegant to sit
with your feet on a desk or tabic, but you
will find It most restful nnd can be done
In the privacy of your own room.
A doctor said that he was always Im
pressing this "fect-up" treatment on girls
and women whoso occupation made It
necessary for them to stand n groat deal
teachers, salesgirls, demonstrators, etc.
"Get your feet ns high ns your head Just
ns often ns you can," ho ordered. Ils
patients thought this a most extraor
dinary prescription but they soon realized
the wonderful relief it gavo to aching
feet.

need be no unpleasant rising xrom tn
table, no depriving tho family of her
orMenco because the hostess must serve
from the kitchen. This repkst lends it
self particularly to a sclf-serv ce plan, and
thus gains in Intlmncy and charm.
All of tho ordinary roast, fry nnd boll
aro outre In this repas In Imo. The
main dish should be particularly appe
tising and literally ns well ns figura
tively havo "pcp," In tho language- of
tho day. All of tho no-called deviled
or Newburg mixtures nro good, whether
of oysters, clams, salmon or chicken and
beef. Eggs shirred, pleated, gathered
nnd tucked, with gnrnlshlngs of plmanto,
bacon, sordines nnd tomato pauce, make
toothsome tidbits. Sandwiches of nil
kinds can bo prepared In advance and
save rpace on tho tablo. Some sort of
preserved fruit or a salad Instead with
Just n smack of enke, cooklo or tart
and that Is all.
Paper plates and napkins offer their
services to tha Sunday night hostess.
Most nttractlvo decorated sets como for
a few cents and after adding their touch
of color to the meal can bo cheerfullv
dropped Into tho waste reoeptnele, leav
ing nothing but tho Bllvcr nnd a. oup or
two to wash. Hero Is a suggestion or
two for next Sunday night:
Oyster and bacon rolls
Tonsted choeso Bandwlches Hot bouillon
Canned strawberries Sunshlno cake
Kidneys and minced ham
Sardine nnd pimento sandwiches
Hot coffee
Orange gelatlno Fruit bars
Anchovy deviled eggs
Toasted water crackerB nnd cream cheese
Preserved ginger
Hot cocoa, whipped cream
