CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
Charming Presents That Cost
Lltlb In Time or Money.
Any pretty trifle rnndc to contain
pin make nn acceptable rift for
Christina. A traveling convenience
that la as ufeful at home a abroad
Is made after the mnnncr of tho old
time necdiobook that rolled up. Tho
foundation of it la a atrip of ribbon
or silk morocco and rhainola can bIko
be used, likewise canvna about six
inches wide and twenty lnchaa Ions.
Lay thl flat on the cutting board and
cover It with two thickneaaea ef rot
ton battine. Put a layer of toarsa
white flannel next to Mil and then on
of coarse holed white net Blad tha
edges neatly together with a catia rib
bon matching the outside of the aoo
venlence, and then turn up four or
five Inches of the bottom of the atrip
nnd tack the end to form a pocket.
About five inches from the top pot a
plump pincushion with corncra roach
Ins to the atrip edges. Hare thin na
inch nnd a half deep nnd stick it fall
of varicolored plna blue, green, red,
pink, white and tho ordinary aorta.
They will look bent if atnek In in aoma
ornnmcntal manner. In the spoc
above the cushion put black and whitv
safety pins In several elzes.
Sacrifice Is Spirit of Christmas.
A curious thing comes to my mind
concerning which I hnve n word to sny,
and that is apropos of honesty. No one
Iiqb u right to give away anything ex
cept what may be in excess of the just
demands upon the Income. The butch
er, the baker, the dry goods man, needs
( his money as surely as does the euthu
1 siastic woman eager to make n pretty
'gift or the lover to bestow upon his
j sweetheart what he knows Is her
heart's desire. Successful Christmas
j giving should mean self sacrifice, and
, it is often a greater sacrifice to deny
oneself the privilege of expenditure
I than to do just what one has in mind.
this heory should be Inculcated, and,
as the coming to this world of our
blessed Lord was one grent act of sac
rifice, so in planning for our Christmas
gifts each child in tho family should
be encouraged to something of self sac
rifice in the gathering together of the
money for his gifts. I like to picture
the old fashioned Virginia home, where
round the library table through tho
fall months the children of the house-
I hold and tho kinsfolk nnd acquaint
ances who might be within the doors
busied themselves in the preparation of
dainty nothings -which should carry on
Christmas morn the sweet words of
loving remembrance. Julia Holmes
Smith, M. D., in Pilgrim.
Baskata of Dainties.
Save the grape baskets to fill with
dainties and see what charming ChrlKt
mns gifts can be made. Lino the bas
kets with dark green tissue paper and
fill them with oranges, red apples,
nuts, clusters of raisins, figs, dates,
grapes and candy. Small glasses of
Jelly, homemade cookies, Individual
mince pies or plum puddings add to
the value.
To the Cynics.
Christmas comes but once ft year.
Do not make a Jest of It.
'Tts a season of cood cheer.
Cynics spoil tho zest of It.
Now a respite, brief repose,
Let us make the best of It,
Drown our many weary woes.
Christmas, wo are blest of it.
Christmas comes but once a year.
Children love the zest of It.
Now a message Kind we hear.
Hearken to behest of It.
Just Rood will and wishes kind
And your love, tho best of It.
If we're poor well, never mind.
Laugh we will and Jest of It.
Christmas comes but onco a year.
Money's not the teat of It.
Hearts alona can help and cheer.
Christ has mado the best of It.
Whatsoever may befall.
Borrows or the rest of It,
Merry Christmas comes to all,
Even those who Jest of It.

Christinas Don'ts
Don't leave the cost mark on pres
ents. Don't let Christmas giving deterlo
rate Into n trade.
Don't let money dominate your
Christmas giving.
Don't embarrass yourself by giving
more than you can nfTord.
Don't expect lo receive as much ns
you give, ns the odds nro on the dis
appointment. Don't acquire your Yulotidc before
the fun of Christmnn actually begins
No Christmas Is fulfilled when the eel
cbrnnt Is filled full.
Don't bo the first to tell a child there
Is no Santa Claus. If you hnve to He
about It He, and lie as nttrnctlvcly ns
your education will penult.
Don't eat your Christmas dinner In n
restaurant if you can find any old home
that you may eat It In, for a Christ
mas dinner In a home is worth two In
the bush.
Don't let your Christmas, go by with
out giving some sort of present to a
child. The excuse that you know no
children will not suffice. You can know
plenty of them between now nnd the
day of days.
Don't decide to abstain from giving
just because you cannot afford expen
sive present. The thoughtfulness of
your gift, the Interest you take In
those to whom you give, are the prin
cipal things. The intrinsic value of
your gift counts very little.
Don't give things Iwcause they arc
cheap and make a big show for the
money. As n rule, It Is a dancorous
thing to pick up a lot of all sorts of
things at bargain sales for Christmas
presents. If you do there Is always
the temptatloD to make inappropriate
gifts.
Chrirtmas In Merry England.
Throughout Grent Britain Christmas
Is the groat week of tho year. It 13
the one week when scattered families
ire reunited, when tender memories
ind old associations nre revived, when
friend greets friend with cheery ex
panEivencf, In striking contrast with
the characteristic reserve of tho Eng
lish nature. Business Is practically
nuspended In London for the five days
succeeding Christmas eve. There is
nothing left of tho obsolete orgies
which ao offended the Puritan element
In the times of Cromwell. It would
be an unimaginable English monarch
who would forbid any olscrvntlon of
the 25th of December. The example is
set by the royal fnmUy of the Ideal
way In which to spend the happy,
merry Christmastide which the Eng
lish people cherish. It was the custom
f King Edward VII. and Queen Alex
andra to pass the holiday quietly at
Sandrinham and there to give per
lonal superrlrtlon to the distribution of
Eifts. Leslie's Weekly.
