Christmas Observances

Properly or Improperly, the observ-
ance Of Christmas is well nigh universal
in Christendom. even among those that
ignore the anniversaries Of our Lords 8
death and resurrection and Of the de-
scent Of the Holy Spirit. There ts an,
other curious fact, the celebration of
Christmas has bean oftener perverted
than that Of the other festivals. vari-
GUS customs of heathen origin were con-
pected with it in the middle ages. and
these abuses led many Of the English
and Scotch reformers to oppose any cell
ebration Of the day. But as festival
in the household 1t has now become 50
dear to children that we must observe
it-Rey. NJ. b. Riddle, d. D.

At CHRISTMAS.

Tho kissing bough bedecks the hall.
Oh, see how Daphne's bushes risei
Without the whirling snowflakes fall
And blind the blue of Daphne's eyes. -
From out the holly peeps the red,
To vie with Daphne's curling lips;
Green boughs and berries deity wed
By magic of her finger tips.
Across warm space the fire beam plays;
The wood evokes complaining sound
A requiem DER the vanished days
That strew sad memory's twilight ground
Without the gusty weather din
Makes mournful music 'gainst the pane.
Loves winter garden, bright within,
Re-echoes summers lost refrain.
Oh, Daphne, sweet, the ebbing year
Has flung you stranded on my breast.
Together may our footsteps wear
The path that winds to Pilgrims Resti
-Gentlewoman.

English Christmas Customs.

In England comparatively modern
customs are almost identical with the
Roman feasts-to wit. the plight In
which old Cheshire farmers used to be
at Christmas. At this season they were
obliged to do their own work. for the
servants were only engaged from Jan.
I to Dec ~, which plan gave them q
weeks holiday. This they employed in
hooking 20 the towns. where they spent
their muugy ID xgvslzy.--ExphnnGa

Birds Eye Ash Discovered.

Mr.. A. G.. Gifiu, of Buckhannon, a
few days ago sent block of bird's-eye
ash TO Mr.. c. X. Lord, Third Vice Pres
ident Of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road Company. The wids OF West Vir-
ginia are prolific Of woods in variety
and quantity, but bird's-eye ash is a
rarity not only there, but elsewhere.
Mr.. Giifin said it mad been unknown In
this State Indeed, so far as the rec
ordS go, il Is the first tree of such kind
discovered. There is plenty of birds
eye maple, and also some bird 's-eye pop
lar, but never before any bird's-eye ash.
IL may turn out that there are more
trees like the one discovered in the
West Virginia forests; II so, it will be a
valuable find. For the present the SIN
gle specimen tree is regarded as g curl
osity only-a freak OF nature. The
tree from which Mr.. Lords block was
sawed was hewed by Mr.. Gifin himself.
Mr. Lord has had the wood finished
and polished, and as exhibited 1t
presented most beautiful appearance.
The grain OF the wood is exceedingly
fue, and as regular as though penciled
by machine.
