THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE- SATTK DAY, DECEMBER 24. 1893.

Social and
Christmas on Sunday Is n good omen
wi the ndnge, but this lnllucnco of
mich weather ns has been afforded us
for tlie past few days la not designed
to be nn omen of anything hotter than
Brlp nml pneumonia. From present
Indications the festivities of holiday
Meek will he largely modified by ach
ing heads and bodily misery In gcnetal.
It Is dllllctilt to excite enthusiasm over
anything hut the Hiiehelors' ball, and
that is of such magnitude that u piet
ty girl must huu a hard case of grip.
Indeed, to feel no thrill of nntlcipa
llon at its pmspectlve glories. There
Is eiei.v ptuspect that Its success will
exceed everything heretofore at
tempted In this direction" und tills
without any dlspatgemcnt of previous
i vents of th kind. The decorations
and genet nl details hae been made on
such an elahorHte scale that It Is
Kwmltigly Impossible to tuninge any
thing new, but that theie will be sun
iliy changes Is ptotulsed. That It will
be attended by the laigest Influx of
visitors ever heie fiom out of town is
eertii'ii.
Maigueiltc How did she manage to
land Mr. Wmy? She Is so plain.
Klennnt Why she (onllded to him
that she wouldn't have allowed IIoIimhi
to kiss ber undei any clicumstances.

will spend Christmas.
HER POINT OF VIEW.
Is nnvbody, except the chlldien, over
really happy at Chllstmas" We nil put
on n mask that smiles but the smile
would look Riotesiitte If the lips be
neath could be seen set In the lines be
trayed by true feeling. Sometimes It
Is to he doubted If even the children
linvi unnlloycd enjoyment on the day
of nil tho vear sacred to ciilldhoo I.
Thev have their small lienitiu In ,
their disappointments, theii Jealousies
and disillusions. Little .Madeline Is
pleased with her beautiful coll ir until
she sees her ileal est filcml with one of
more ci stly fur, when her Chiistmas
day Is suddenly clouded, for the ihll
drcn of this peilod uie vvle In their
day and geneiatlon nnd thoroughly un
derstand the relative values of stone
marten nnd lilvcr fox Jack wanted i
camel a which he didn't got and he did
not pnitlctilarly ciave four more copies
of "A Child's History of Fngland."
"It's a great pltv that books ate glow
ing so cheap." remaiks that young per
son, "for they all say 'Oh. we'll get
Jack a book.' nnd the queer kind of
books they do get! Clown folks hnve
a great Idea about the things a boy
likes to read."
In one family theie s n daughter
who always gets needle hooks on
Chi ltirns. She has enough needle
books to (III a mission box to go on the
frontier nnd always is suro of getMng
at least two mote at Chiistmas. An
other girl calls paper knives her hoo
doo. T'p to dale she has cloven of var
ious kinds and conditions and this
yar's Invoice not yet Inspected. One
lady who occupies a scml-publlc posi
Hon where she meets nnny people In
close iiciiualntanre. has enough hand
kei chiefs to last a regiment through a
lege of the grip. One Chiistmas she
received throe dozen and two nnd as
this method has been going on for sov -cuil
years she has n large stock on
hand It is needless to state that these
unfoituiiates do not look upon ('hrlM
nns as a season of blissful surpiKes
as they are tolerably familiar of at
least a paili.il list of their piospecllvi
pie-sent..
r
As for us grown folks. If we aio wo
men we stiuggle and liuny and tear
m.idlv aiotiud at Chiistmas time in ol
der to make or puicbasi piesents the
people who leeelvo them fioouentlv
don't want. Then we are so tin d when
Chiistmas comes that we look cross
eyed ut our own gifts and lament over
those which we gave to other, nnd
which suddenly smm,, unsuitable. W,
wonder how it Is that Christmas woil:
seetns to lo hauler eaeh yeai and spei -libit"
as to whether at the piestnt int.
of Increase of the burden of tlvlllatleu
the simplicity of life In the Philip
pines would not be ptoferable.
A woman was l elating her woes the
other day and some of them siemed to
have been abstiucted fiom the book
of lamentations of almost eveiy other
woman who listened.
"The worst feature of Christmas to
me," she said. "Is the afterward, when
I have to umpire a general exchange
bureau In the household. Ned Is sin.
to want some article that was present
ed to llnny and vice-versa. After
they have scrapped over it for some
time, each trying to make an excep.
tlonally good bargain out of the af
fair, they nppe.il to me and my effoits
at reaching a .settlement usually re
sult disastrously. Then my husband
desires that I Mull proceed down town
tho next day and as he teims It "swap
the bunch" of things he leceived fiom
fond relatives for things lie really
wants, but which no amount of coaxing
could have caused him to divulge ear
lier so that sonio of the family might
have been guided r.ccoidlnglv. My
brother Inquires with brotherly frunk
ness why on earth I bought a pair of
military brushes for him nnd wonden
If I can't get them exchanged for a
leather traveling case which nobody
dreamed that he wanted. My daugh
ter Informs me since some extravagant
friend has given her a gold-mounted
powder box that she cxnects the fam
ily to provide her with other toilet ar
ticles to match, as t liver Is out of data
now ard so common that nobody Is
giving it for presents. It was only inn
year that she had a sterling silver
mounted mltrnr for her dressing table
that cost twelve dollars, besides the
monogram and It Is now out of date.
"I gave a friend a framed Mjdjuna
she admlied and now I'm told that she
has two others almost like. It umong
her prospective gilts nnd I'm morally
certain that I'm going to get two beta
of 'The Little Minister,' for two dlf
fetent people have lun me Into a book
store and Insisted In such a palpable
way that I chall express a piefereiua
for It that there ean be no mistake
Christmas iriakeB me tired," she added
with a sigh.
Men are the disconsolate ones about
this time when they are discovered
prowling forlornly around In the shops
endeavoring to get an Instillation of
choice from the conglomerate array of
goods on tale. Anything moio pathet
ic than a man going nbcut dazed and
wiotched In his well-meaning attempts
to buy the light thing Is hard to Im
agine. Oenerally tpeaking ho ilnally
takes the girl cleik Into his conlldetie.
and tho last estate of that man is
worse than the first for she can reason
ably be depended on to lead him to tin
selection of something that will cans
his family to groan In spirit, since If she
is a good saleswoman sho (an m.iii.ig
to Bend him off rejoicing with home
nullquated aitlcle that has been in
slock for many Christmas seaotifc
I saw a man buvlng a big ted plufh

will come across that pattlculai Christ
inas present and will drench Its em
bossed sui face v.'th many tears ,n
which will be mingled a vast tenderness
with 8oi row-fill regret for even the Im
patient thoughts that were hidden fast
In her heart In the other davs.
Hut to return to the thought; Are any
of us really happy at Chrlstnms? Then
more thnn nt othei timer comes back
the mcmotles of the past. Then more
than over Is missed "the touch of a
vanished hand and the round of a
voice that Is still.' Then perhaps
among u birve uirny of gilts M ml'sod
a temembtniice that evei came fiom
one now sepnicted by more than the
grave fiom the old plan In the heart.
So many m moi les thr.t sadden are
ciowded In on every side.
So many home elides aie broken for
