Then they went to a grocer's and
added sugar and tea to the basket.

clear to Toms door.
How the children did hurry around
to get the supper. Dollic set the ia
BILE all over again, put the potatoes on
to boil, fried the steak and boiled
fresh water for the new tea, while
Tom cut and spread the slices of rye
bread. Such happy little children!
Such a merry Christmas Eve!
Mrs Jones hard days work was over,
and as she reached the doorway of the
house in which she lived she stopped to
wipe away the tears from her ey es lest
it should grieve the children to know
she had been crying. Only few shil-
lings were tied up in the corner Of her
handkerchief, and those must, most of
them. go for the rent nearly due. Oh.
how she did long for ever SO little to
make Tom and Dollie realize what q
Christmas gift meant; but she was tired
and cold and almost faint from hunger,
So she began to climb to the attic. AS
she got to the first flight she was greet
cd by an odor of good things that made
her say to herself: THE Stems are
having Z good supper" But it wasn't
the Stems nor the Swedish families on
the next floor The Rleys and O'Hal-
lihans were away. and the folks on her
floor and the one below lived mostly on
scraps that they gathered from house to
house. The door of her own poor room
opened. and out upon her cleaned
light. Serse of comfort and a glow
of warmth. while the two voices she
loved best cried: Come in, mo Their,
out of the dark and cold. Merry
Christmas, for the Christ Chiid's sake"
All this happened thirty long years
ago. But every Christmas Eve, in
beautiful home, one of the most beauti-
full in all the great city of New York,

one father and mother) have this custom:
Just as the twilight comes. they put

in hand, with peace and goodwill in
their hearts, they enter room 1.-THE
best and prettiest in all the house,
where grandma lives. They always
| find her seated before her open fire,
looking so placidly beautiful; as one OF
| the children said once ''as if she saw
Heaven" She always has on her lap
two bundles done up in pure white
cloth, and the children gather all about
her and are very still as she tells them

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

THE value of the dairy cow depends
upon the quality and the quantity of
her milk through the year.
II will not be long now before the
nights will be too cold for the cow to
remain out doors II she is left out id
cold nights she will shrink her milk,
and the flow cannot be restored. We
give this warning every year.
WE have been asked several times re-
Gently how to sterilIze milk. It is heated
to 155 degrees for about 10 minutes.
then cooled rapidly to 50 degrees and
then the heating and cooling are re-
peated. The process has for its purpose
the destruction of the bacteria.

CHRISTMAS GIVING.
Do Not Forget Those Who May BE Less
Fortunate Than Yourself

Do Not Forget Those Who May BE Less
Fortunate Than Yourself.
But whatever the mode selected for
our Christmas giving, let us each and
all at this holiday time bestow a por-
ton of our bounties, however small, or
some one not SO fortunate as ourselves
Our first duty is to those dearest anC
nearest to US; then to our friends. But
let us take just one step beyond. Nc
matter how heavy we may think our
own burdens, there are always those
who are far more heavily burdcned than
ourselves We are apt to think, ut
times, that no one can be more afIict-
ed than are we. that none are called
upon to bear what we are bearing.
But, my friend, there are those whose
feet tread paths compared to which our
own are paths of luxury; there are toll.
ers of whose toll we know not; there
arc anguishcd ones to whose anguish
we are strangers; there are homes in
which the sunlight of kindness rarely
enters And they are not in the dis.
tricts of poverty, either. There are
homes into which n simple toy, one
flower. a single book, sent on Christmas
morning, would fill the day with hap
piness. We all like to be remembered,
and with whom is remembrance
sweeter than with those whose friends
are few? There is not one among
all our readers whose station is
SO humble but he or she can afford
one little act that will make the day OF
the birth of Christ sweeter in its sig
nificance to some other being. Send q
word of cheer into some home Of desc
lation, if nothing more. sympathy is
a sweet balsam; it softens the bitter, it
cheers the depressed, it brightens the
sorrowful, it helps the discouraged; it
is humane. it is blessed, it is Christ
like. Do something for some one else
on this coming Christmas; make some
little spot in this big world seem
brighter, and then there will surely
come to you. rs SO heartily and sincere
ly wish for one and all my readers and
Let my intense wish, which is always
a prayer in the sight of God, come
straight to you, into your homes and
into your hearts: may you read it now
and hear it again on Christmas morn.
A right, good Christmas to you; may
health and happiness be in your homes:
may your daughters be fair of heart
and your sons be noble of mind; and
may the one of your affection shower
love upon you. May Christmas day be
only the first of many happy days to
come. reaching far, not only into the
year before us, but into the years &c
come.-Laiies' Home Journal.

. S.-ORCHARD PLANTING IN THE
ANGULAR SYSTEM.

ANGULAR SYSTEM.
only one row is set at time, while tho
two corners of the triangle are kept
over the last row Of stakes. There
should be a person at each corner OF
the triangle.
After the stakes are all set, bore an
inch hole in each end of board, four
inches wide and six or eight feet long.
Cut a notch in the center. place it
against the stake, drive stake through
each hole in the end of the board, and
remove the center one. The hole is
then dug, and when ready to set the
tree lay the board over the stakes
and place the tree in the notch. The
same plan can be used in laying off an
orchard by using square instead of a
triangle. All the measurements must
b. exact, or the triangle will not tit
when placed over the stakes. In this
way it is no trouble to keep the rows
straight, no matter what length they
may be. The stakes should be fifteen
to eighteen inches in length, and some
what smaller than the inch holes in
the triangle. so that they will work
easily. (The illustration, Fig. 1, shows
an orchard planted in the triangular
form; Fig. 9, the triangle used in lay
ing it off; and Fig 5, the board used to
set the trees by.)-I. II. Fickel. in

Two Sides of tho Picture.

Somebody writing about the great
improvement which recent years has
brought about in butter-making says:
I'VE feel encouraged when we go to
fairs and dairy exhibitions and see the
excellent quality of butter exhibited.
But we felt encouraged ten, fifteen and
twenty years ago at these exhibitions.
When we go to the country stores
where most of the butter is marketed
we don't feel SO elated. There is just
about as much poor butter tumbled
into stores and bartered for goods as
there was ten or fifteen years ago
that is. in some parts Of the country
at least. The farm paper, the farmers
institute and progress do not reach all
