The day before Christmas . member
of the REPUBLICAN rstaff started out,
accompanied by his wife, In search OF
som netting TO please their children.
They have two little boys aged and IL
wears, and a. they are be coming almost
TOO wise to pin their faith much longer
10 the traditions OF Santa Claus, II was
so,new hat OF difficult matter 10 decide
what 10 purchase, that would not only
please but also instruct them.
Finally IL was decided TO buy a magic
lantern for the youngest, and an estab
lishment where such articles are kept,
WAS visited. While they were exam
lining a small Ian tern, the proprietor
stepped alon Rside, and picking up a
much larger one, asked them how that
would suit, and remarked that he
would give the little fellow that as a
Christmas present. 1t WAS accepted
with thanks, and carefully wrapped
up. Some other articles were purchas-
ed and taken home, where they were
carefully concealed until Christina 6
morning.
As might be expected the boys were
very much pleased, es pecially the one
who received the magic lantern. In
the afternoon some oil was poured in
the miniature lamp, but as II leaked
out a. fast as it was put in, it was de
termined 10 defer the exhibition until
it was soldered. Friday morning tin
ner exerted his skill in making 1t oil
tight, and last evening the lamp was
filled and trimmed, and everything got
in order for the exhibition.
AS soon as that treacherous lamp was
lighted it commenced a series of pyro-
tecnics on its own account, and sput-
tered and fixed for a minute or two,
when it was removed from the room,
but the apparatus had barely been
placed on the back porch when it ex-
ploded, and tore the lantern all to
pieces, and the newspaper man has
been trying to think ever since what
he had ever done to that storekeeper,
that he should present him with an in
fernaI machine in the shape of q magic
lantern

Common Sense

Principles are eternal
the application varies. That
Oak Hall shall give the

vital principle of its manage

whether profits or losses re-
suit. Hence changes Of pri-

are not vacillation, but firm

nonsense. To keep this
