THE CHRISTMAS TREE.
some Hints that May be Useful and
Entertaining In Dressing.
ff.ona "a Naip Yort oommercia,.

h&AhAbR "a DAcNHAAEs
From the Noto York 0ommsrciG,.
There are so many beautiful ornaments
for Christmas trees to be obtained at the
toy stores that it is not a difficult matter
for almost any family desiring it 70 have
this most pleasure-giving Christmas
adornment. A tree OF rare beauty may
be arranged in this way: Choose we'll
grown mr., one that's symmetrieal-it may
De OF any desired size--and place it in n
holder made OF heavy wood, in the form
OF a cross, with hole for the stem at the
point where the pieces OF wood are ias-
tened together. The tree must fit In the
opening firmly, otherwise it will not serve
It's purpose. Have at hand a quantity Of
white cotton, which has been Grst i'm
mersed in a solution OF alum and water,
TO render it nOn-intiammable, as
they dried. Cover the tree with
this cotton until il looks as Ii
covered with new fallen snow. From
every available space hang glass icicles
by silVered wires, and at the end OF every
branch have sIlVered taper holder with
white taper. Be lavish with the lights,
Tor they are the chief beauty of the tree.
Silyered bells hung all about add bril-
nancy TO the effect, and their crystal
chime Is pleasant to hear. A large silver
star fastened at the extreme top will
make graceful finish. If you do not
have icicles or bells you may still have an
enectlve tree without them; or you may
garland the tree with strings Of white
popcorn, prosaic enough in itself, but
when strung together on stout linen
Unread, producing an effect that is charm
lngly light and airy. A golden
Christmas tree is even more daz-
zllng. The branches are covered
with gold lametta, strips Of tinsel
scarcely wider than stout silk. This
tlnsel is Just thrown carelessly on. Have
yellow tapers and taper-hOlders, and
hang golden nuts or ornaments from the
branches. The Christ child" should be
clad in golden robes and hung from the
topmost branch, unless, perhaps, golden
star Is preferred. Purses and bags OF
tulie or illusion sewn together with bright
worsted may be made to hold the canOy,
and nuts may be gilded or silvered. Or
large walnuts may be divided in halves
| and the kernels removed, then
tiny bags made of ribbon half
as long again as the nut shells
may be fastened on the shells with a
little stiff mucilage. lightly applied to
their inner edges. These may be filled
with tiny sugar-plums. The purse-siik
ruBnIng-strings OF these bags should be
OF the same color as the silk of which they
are made. Some persons always have
the Christmas tree adorned with flowers.
These may be made of tissue paper or Of
the new filigret which is quite brilliant
and may be arranged to form any flower
small cornucopios of silver and gilt pa
per may be made at home and filed with
dates or figs. These will be appreciated
by all, as after having served for decora-
ton they may be eaten.

A Russian War Predicted.
From London LIE.

Society at st. Petersburg is just now
much occupied with the revival Of a very
curious story. About three years ago
there was a spiritualistic seanoe at the
Officers Club In that city, at which the
spirit Of famous departed general was
called up, and prophesied, among other
things. that there would be a great war In
1856, in which Russia would take the
leading part. As the ghost Of the de-
ceased warrior mentioned among the
names OF officers who would greatly dis
tinguish themselves during the war,
those OF some men who did not even fig
ure in the army list. the affair was looked
upon as a joke and nothing more was
thought oft. But, by strange cOinci-
dence, among recent appointments 20 the
rank OF commissioned officers, the very
names appear which the spirit had fore
told, the bearers being men OF no family
who have risen from the ranks. As there
IL no country In the world where super
stitiOn is carried 20 such an extent az in
Russia. the incident has caused qUite n
sensation. IL would be very strange fiat
the commencement Of the year 1886 we
should see Russia drawn into war with
Austria. as a result Of the struggle be-
tvveen Servia and Bulgaria.
