NEW CHRISTMAS NOTIONS.
Some Substitutes for the Customary Tree
Briefly Suggested

Some Substitutes for the Customary Tree
Briefly Suggested.
The Christmas tree Is to be sup
planted this year. The mothers of the
land and the aunts and the grown-up
sisters have said: "Go to, now; we will
devise something new. For, 10! These
many years have our rooms been lit
tered with evergreen spikes: these
many winters past have our arms
ached from tying impossible cherubs
at impossible heights; these many
Christmases has the fire department
dreaded the union of lighted candles
and dry branches, We will have some
thing new"
One rather attractive plan, says the
New York World, is to fit up corner
OF the room as a miniature snow-field.
A sheet is the best material to stretch
down, and it should have tackled over
1t bits of raw cotton, with here and
there a piece of tinsel to give the effect
of glittering snow. On this should be
placed big sleigh. Big sleighs are not
found In abundance in every household,
have no sleighs will have to depend
upon the old-fashioned Christmas tree,
The children's gifts should be packed in
the sleigh and someone should be pre-
pared to act as Santa Claus on Christ
mas morning and distribute the load of
presents. The shafts should be wound
with ground pine, and bells should be
CO ha Go n
Claus jingle will be heard.
An enormous hollow log-the yule log
in appearance If not in reality-may
be another receptacle for gifts. A pa
pier-mache log, with adjustable top, is
the most convenient log for this pur-
pose. When the top has been lifted and
the presents have been distributed, the
make-believe log may be burned in
regulation style.
A row of little wooden shoes Sc. In
good, old fashioned German style about
the fire is an excellent substitute for
the customary row of stockings dang
ling above 1t.
1t is a pretty, Christmas-like idea to
have the various presents arranged in a
snowdrift pile. All the gifts are ar
ranged in white boxes, which have iml-
tation snow in the form of spangled
raw cotton tackled over their lids and
sides. Bits Of holly are stuck in, and
the whole lot is piled loosely in one
corner The amount of fun which the
little people extract from the appear
ance Of the pile. and from the search
for their own particular boxes more
than pays for the difficulty of arrang-
ing the snowdrift.

Both felt little more hopeful after
partaking of this refreshment, when
they parted with some solemnity, and
Blount made his way to his own place,
where he passed a wretched night, har-
assed by frlghtful dreams, in which he
found himself minus both the "beau2
yeux" and the "cassette," of which he
hoped to possess himself.
After a hasty visit to the Office, for
he never neglected business, Blount
hurried to Lonsdale Gardens.

What matter, so long as we get in

Blount, anxious to be up and doing, and
bent his steps to a central Office at some
distance, fancying it would be more
rapidly dispatched than from the little
local postofiice in bakers shop. Re-
turning, a runaway horse and a
smashed vehicle impeded his progress
and on his arrival James received him
with smiles. Miss Eastwood Is up

In few seconds he had alighted and
was pacing the platform.
The rush and hustle of the early even
ing trains were over. The great sta
ton looked gloomy and discretionary
few porters were about and the 1920
was evidently a thing of no import
ance.
Blount paced slowly up and down
revolving the possibilities of his posi-
tion.
Gwen was certainly what is called a
girl of spirit, not to say slightly head
strong, and there was no saying what
a young woman of that description
tive had she in sending that mysterious
telegram, If 1t were not to mask her
movements? Here, porter; isn't the

story of the ball which he had told Mar
ling in the morning.
At first Mr.. Ardell was indignant and
incredulous, but as Blount persisted
and insisted on the weakness, gullibil-
ity and fancifulness of women, espe
cially young ones, the elder man grew
restless, irritable and clustering.
Thine will show, sirv' cried Blount
at last, looking at the heavy classical
bronze clock over the fireplace; "and

Nonsense, Philip. l believe you are
out of your mnd; but you have made
me very uncomfortable" returned Mr..
Ardell, ringing the bell. Come back
as fast as you can. Whistle a cab for
Mr. Blount," he continued, as James
appeared in answer to the bell,
you must not agitate yourself too
much, my dear uncle" said Blount, ris-
ing and feeling some compunction at
having worked up his host to such a
pitch of uneasiness, and he left the
room.
A hanson already awaited him. and
he was soon rattling toward Padding
ton.
BY this time he had reached condi-
tion of mind which induced him to seek
comfort by recapitulating his uncle's
arguments against himself.
Suppose his horrible suspicious
proved true. Mr.. Ardell would GER
tainly cut off Gwen with shilling
or, perhaps, farthing possibly all
his uncles fortune might come to him.
But want Gwen, too" he thought.
