st. Nicholas.

Who was ST. Nicholas? Many of
our readers might be puzzled to an.
swer who was, or rather Who is Santa
Claus ? Any child can tell, especially
if you put the question to him at the
Christmas time. "What, you don't
know Santa Claus, that KIDD old gen
tleman who goes frisking over. the
world on the night before Christmas,
with his bu' do of good things on
his back?" Nimbly he LEI ps down
every chimney, and f l. the baskets
and stockings round the hearth wal,
How often have our little friends
dreamed all through the blessed
night OF Christmas eve, of the good
Santa Claus and his expected gft4l
Santa Claus, then, or St. Nicholas,
as he is more properly called, is the
especial patron of the children He
was Archbishop of Myra, in Asia Nj
nor. He lived in the Fourth Centu-
ny of the Christian era. Simplicity,
modesty, and a boundless charity
characterized the saint. From the
time of his death great honors were
paid him, both in the Greek and Latin
churches, and numerous affairs and
shrines were dedicated to God under
his patronage. With the Russians ST
Nicholas has ever been a favorite
saint.
In the year 1887 certain merchants
of Bari, an Italian seaport on the Ad
riatic, succeeded in carrying off the
relics Of st. Nicholas from Myra. =
Numerous miracles were said to have
been wrought az Bari OH the arrival OF
the sacred remains The saints shrine
at Bari has ever since been a resort of
pious pilgrims.
The childlike virtues of the saint,
and the peculias aid that he extended
to young people during his life, are
TIE chief reason why he is frequently
represented IN picture by three Youths.

mass your trimmings, but if picture
frames are trimmed it should be
delicately done, and the frames not
concealed. A communicating door

opportunities for lavish artistic
adornment where it will be most eff

House Decorations for Christmas.

Evergreens are the proper decora-
tions for Christmas, as erybody
knows. Flowers should be used
sparingly. but still it is well to have
few immortelles, life everlasting
bachelors buttons, chrysanthemums
flowers that do not easily wither.
Bright berries may be freely used,
and cluster of autumn leaves will
make an effective point of color in d
mass of somber evergreens. or a
swaying branch of those brilliant
leaves will blend tremendously with
the various shades OF green in the
testoons of ivy, laurel, pine and ce-
dar. A little color used more mass
lively than the berries will admit of
will be found very desirable.
The autumn leaves do rot need to
be vanished to last until Christmas.
If laid ia a newspaper and placed
under weight they will keep suffi-
GENTLY we'll for this purpose.
These and the flowers must be
only for finishing touches of artistic
beauty the evergr Gems should be
the groundwork and the principal
part of the picture. All kinds cf
these can be used, but some are more
desirable than Others the leaves of
the hemlock, pine and cedar fall cas-
lily, and do not very well agree with
handsome carpets, but it would be a
pity to Danish them entirely, espec-
tally the heml)ck. Box, laurel.
ground-pine, ivy, and holly are the
most beautiful of the evergreens
The latter is especially desirable on
account of its dark green leaves and
gay clusters of berries. 1t seems
always to have been held in especial
generation. Tie mistletoe is still
more holy and venerable, having
been reverenced both by pagan and
Christian. But it IS not allowable to
make crosses oft $50 lovingly do we
cling to old superstiiions), and the
legend in regard to the mistletoe is
that it was once Ia tree, but that the
cross of our SAVER being made of it,
it dwindlsd to parasite.
Garlands, stars. etc, should not be
spotted" separately about room.
Indeed, it is well not to have very
many geometrical figures, tridents,
harps. anchors, trefoils, quarterfoiIs,
etc. The two latter are the only
ones that will bear mach repetition.
Crosses are beautiful, but they are
more appropriate to churches-one

Christmas.

Three of the Evangelists give an
saviour of men. st. Matthew des>
cribes the birth scene at Bethlehem,
the wise men from the East, led by
the star, Offering their gifts of gold
and trankincense and myrrh.
ST. Luke seems to stand where he
can behold the manger-cradle, with
the mother and her babe, and see the
worshipping shepherds. But St.
John seems TO look into the distant
past, and to stand on some point
overlooking heaven. for he identifies
that low-born babe as the Creating
World, as one with him who was clad
in robes of light and glory before the
world was.
There is something IN that lowly
birth, something in that helpless in
nocenoe, something in that pure in
fancy that endears Jesus of Nazareth
10 the world. There is q sympathy
growing out OF similarity of conditions
that draws the hearts of those thus
situated towards each other. Thirty
years ago, | remember it was said of
one OF the Presidential candidates
that be had been a dweller in log
cabin, and the log cabin became to
him most auspicious emblem. Lat
er, it was said of another Presidential
candidate, that be had been splitter
OF rails =; and, again, of a third, that
he had been tanner, and these oo-
equations at once favorably introduce
ed their former followers to the great
company of those who live by man
uel labor.
So the birth of Jesus of Nazareth.
a babe in Betnlehem's manger, brings
him nearer to the great heart of the
world, for all of us have once been
