Homo C0mfnrfs.

In this money-making. money-lovinp
age the study Of home comforts and
amusement Is sadly neglected. Young
America scarcely knows the meaning
OF the word home, because the little de-
vices that cheer and ornament the fam
hy abode are never considered. The
lighting of a home is an important
feature in the winter time. The wax
candle shedding its pure light over a
silver candelabra will never be sur
passed by lamp, gas or electric globe.
We have a memory of a plantation
Christmas dinner where table and din
ing-room were declSed out in pine tops,
the long, glistening green needles MAX
ing fantastic display against the pure.
spotless damask, and beneath FURNISHED
silver plate; in the luxury of candle
light and the brilliant flame of fat
light wood. which gave forth a whole
seme odor of rosin, and burnt a blue
and pink fame over the hickory logs,
we forgot the cold outside, the
somber moaning pine forests, the hoot-
ing owl-there was q summer in our
heart.

EAc:1diaE Aliens.

The human race must quit moving.
England and Hungary are taking steps
to stop the influx of aliens, the United
States having set the example by shut
ting out the Chinese. After they get
that end closed up, will they leave the
other end open? If they do, other coun-
tries viii begin to keep out aliens. And
then, as We said before, the human
race must stop moving. The right way
for aliens to do is to keep dropping into
a good country in small bodies, as if
they were just coming to find home
not in hundreds Of thousands annually.
as II they meant to take the good coun-
try by storm. And the right way for
old world oppression to do is to quit
driving out people from the land Of their
birth in such numbers, and with such
unseemly haste, that it is evident the
unfortunate victims are literally fleeing
for their lives.
