Before our next issue reaches
our patrons, Christmas and New
Year will have passed, and with
them many pleasant scenes and
recollections. We hope the bright
dreams and iancies of the little
ones will be fully realized, and
that the little stockings, which
adorn the chimney corners. will be
filled to overlooking. even if it
should impose the labor on that
venerable Old man Santa Claus of
making two or three trips up the
the chimney to bring down all the
good things he has in store for
good children.
We were never much in favor
of teaching any kind of supersti
tons, but somehow we cannot
help making considerable allow

particular harm and are soon out
grown.
Christmas is not OILY a day of
JOY for the children, but the old
as well. As this day is celebrated
as the birth of Him who taught
good will and friendship for all,
we should not forget the lesson
and therefore, be ready and vii
ling to take every one by the hand
and wish him good cheer.
We wish each and every one a
Sumptuous feast, and a season of
unaIlOyed happiness, and that our
great holiday will be spent in a
rational way.
The New Year shuts out the old
and ushers in the new. If we
have been happy in the past, let
us be thankful. If not, let US try
and make amends so that we will
be in the future. This is the day

kiss you on tho lips that no knows arc
only the gates to sweet, pure speech,
and when no can whisper the lovely
nothings that mean so much to you
both. Then, too, don't let him feel that
NO must give up all his friends for you;
don't accept valuable presents from him,
and don't assume on air of proprietor
ship with him. Toll him nothing about
your family affairs, for tho secrets of
tho household do not oven belong to the
man you are going to marry. Guard
yourself in word and deed; hold his love
In tho bost way possible; ito it firmly to
you with the blue ribbon of hope, and
never let 1t be eaten away by that little
1ox who destroys 30 many loving ties
and who is called familiarity.
