The spirit of holiday festivity that
pervades the earth just now has a
deeper significance than just the desire
,f having merry time. 1t is another
phase OF that spirit OF self-sacrifice that
IS the holiest OF wOmanly traits. We
give our gifts, those little flowers of
owe or courtesy, because we want to do
something for those we love. That is
he first proposition, but as the womanly
spirit grows the circle widens. We give
.OOur loved ones because we love them,
but in this wider circle we give Of our
work, or sympathy, or money, because
we know that only by service can there
be spiritual growth.
We may know this only in q slim
way, but by giving we gain light and in
sight, and grow towards that higher life
that is the goal towards which all
healthful souls yearn. Out of this
growth comes all these sweet charities
that take need of the smallest thing, as
the Kings Daughter, the Eastern Star
lodge, the various SiSterhOOdS and
brotherhoods that, uncOnSclously per
haps, are working together to bring the

Rockefeller Donates a Huge Sum
to the Chicago University.


CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-John ID. Rookie
feller has made another huge gift to the
University of Chicago. The sum is un-
dersto0d to be over $1,000, 900, but the
exact figures are not given out. For
the last two months the trustees of the
university have been endeavOring to
persuade Mr.. Rockefeller to give them
$1,000, 900, i'll order to carry out some of
their cherished plans. The New York
capitalist objected 10 giving that sum
outright, but submitted a proposition
for vast sum to be given, providing
certain plans which lie suggested be
carried out. This proposition was sub
mitted to the trustees today.
''l cannot give you the exact figures"
said one of the trustees this afternoon,
"but will say that through the gener
Osity of Mr.. Rockefeller we have now
fund which will enable President Har
per to carry forward the Institution on
the broad basis which he conceived for
it, 1t is noble gift. indeed, and it is
well for Chicago and the world that
such philanthropists exist"

a PIethOric Christmas Tree and a
Sensible Talk.
The newsboys' association provided
beautiful Christmas tree and al en-
tertainmeht tor the boys at their room
on WabaSha street last might. Prepare
tionS had been made for 225 boys, and
there were about 200 present when the
exercises began The money for the
tree and the presents were a voluntary
gift from the women of the Eastern
Star Lodge and the Kings Daughters
Of the Universaist church, and some
few persons beside.
The programme opened with a song
from the boys choir of st. Johns
church. Mr. Dougan, president of the
association, then made short speech,
which was enthusiastically received by
the boys. Another song from the choir
followed.
Rev. q. Payton Morgan, of st. Johns
church, then made the boys speech,
using a Christmas stocking for text
He told the boys that their hearts were
something like this stocking, for they
contained a great many things. both
good and bad, the good it was the pur-
pose of this association to cultivate, the
bad to throw away. Taking a switch
out of the stocking he asked what this
was, then told the boys that switch
could hurt and sting, but not more than
their bad words hurt and sting these
friends who were so anxious for their
good. A lump of coal from the stock
ing served as an example of the effect
bad company had on people; an orange
Illustrated something good, and so on
till the stocking was emptied, and the
speech ended with hearty wish for a
merry Christmas time for ali present.
Music from the choir followed. Then
Miss Smith recited TO the satisfaction,
evidently, of the boy, the poem, '"IWaS
the Night Before Christmas" music
again followed, when Santa Claus. in
the person Of Mr.. Taite. appeared with
huge hamper full Of things for the
boys. After a CHEEKY greeting he took
big gray toy cat out of his basket and
presented it 10 President Dougan in a
bright speech that brought sounds Of
applauS from the boys. AS soon as ar
rangemeutS could be carried out, the
boys marched two and two to the front
Of the stage. and received their presents.
Then out of the door, at which each was
given ball of pop corn.
There was ali abundant supply Of
goodies for all. The crowd was rather
more demoustrative than most such as
SemblieS of boys, but good nature was
the order of the evening. and the kind
ness and patience of MI Dougan, Miss
Taylor and their able corps of assistants,
was equal 10 meeting and managing
lhe big crowd successfully. a beauti-
full Christmas tree adorned one end of
tie hall, and this, contrary 10 the usual
custom, was not rifled of its beauties,
but will stand thing of beauty to feast
the eyes OF the boys for weeks to come.

FOR AMATEUR COOKS.

Wheat makes pleasant variation
with oatmeal for breakfast dish. 1t
is nice to buy the whole grains and
break them IN a cotfee-grinder. Often
the grocers keep only an inferior quail
ity. An hour or more should be al
lowed for it to boil, and fresh cream or
milk should be served with It.
Saratoga chips cooked at home are
much crisper and fresher than those
bought already prepared at the grocery
stores. Select large, perfect potatoes,
peel, slice thin, and put them in cold
water for an hour. Then wipe them
Sprinkle with salt To fry them have
ready large kettle of hot suet. Try
the fat first by dropping in one or two
of the slices, stirring them with long
handled fork to keep them from stick
ing together. When the potatoes are
done they should be colored light
brown. Ii the fat be not hot enough
the potatoes Will be greasy. Skim them
into coIander and then put them in
hot dish in the oven. Set the fat back
while you put in more potatoes, and
then proceed as before. 1t is nice to try
them in wire basket. AS much of the
grease as possible should be drained off
from them.
An Italian method of cooking spag-
hetti and cheese and tomatoes makes
veay nice dish. Cook one pound of the
spaghetti in three quarts OF boiling,
Salted water, until it is tender, for about
forty-tive minutes. Then dram it
through a colander, and set the colander
in tin pan III the oven to dry the paste
somewhat. Boil can Of tomatoes down
until it only makes about a pint, and
season them with salt and pepper. land a
scant teaSpoonful of sugar. Prepare
three ounces of melted butter, and the
same amount of grated cheese. Have
dish hot and put into it, in alternate
layers, the spaghetti, tomatoes and
cheese, pouring over each layer some of
the melted butter. Then mix the entire
mass with a fork, sprinkle little
cheese over the top, and serve it as a
separate course, or with the dinner
vegetables, as preferred.
Creams are always nice for dessert
when one tires OF pudding served too
often. A pretty way to serve Charlotte
Russo is in glasses about half the size
of ordinary water glasses. Line these
with fresh lady fingers and fill in with
whipped cream that has been sweetened
AMI Favored with vanilla, lemon or
almond. Chill the cream thoroughly
before whipping it and let the dessert
be cool when it is served.
The tall celery glasses and fiat celery
dishes are only partly satisfactory to
hold the celery, and nowadays few
choice stalks are LAID beside each plate
and the holder is not used.
