Scarcely less wonderful than the
mystery of the first Christmas night is
the mystery of the perpetuation of the
festival. 1t is far cry enough from
the shepherds who tended their flocks
on the hillside of Judea, and the be-
lieving kings who followed the star
from the east, to, let us say, the aver
age American citizen, and the modern
rulers of Kingdoms. Reverence and
simple faith are not exactly the pre-
vailing characteristics of the former,
nor do the latter betray sufficient keen
ness of interest in things supernal to
warrant the supposition that they
would leave their Kingdoms and go
forth laden with treasure, to follow
mysterious sign in the heavens. Yet

Queer Ways of Giving Presents In tho
Oldcn Times.

queer ways OF UlVinS IFcBente IN tno
Oldcn Times.
There used to he Il custom in vogue
many years ago in placing all the New
Years gifts on the floor in n dark room
where the recipients scrambled for
them on their knees, and if they
brought out other than their own they
were fined Il certain sum which was to
be expended in addition to the good
cheer. Bags of bran and baskets of
shavings were used to conceal heights
in, and the whole process was made us
difficult and amusing as possible. The
custom of giving New Years presents
dates back to the SaNons. who kept the
festival with great tccrcnonyan and feast
ing. In the fifteenth century gloves
were the most appreciated of any pres
ents, being of the finest quality and
handsomely decorated with gold and
silver embroidery. A neat surprise was
a sum of money incloscd in the gloves.
A lord chancellor of England, Sir
Thomas Moore. had won difficult suit
for lady client, and She remembered
him on New Years day with a pair of
gloves which had forty gold pieces
scwcd into them. Sir Thomas kept
the gloves. but returned the money,
saying that such lining made him un-
fortablc.-Dctroit Free Press.

All seated on the ground"

E WAS Christmas Eve. AMI DER the world
II mantle white was falling
. When Santa Claus set out to do
His yearly round of calling:
The dear old saint rcjpicei to see
A promise Of good scshing.
For lots of snow WIS just what he
A long time had been PRAYING.
So greatly pleased WAS he to see
Such charming Christmas weather.
That glyly to his task he flew
OF getting things together.
His ample sleigh was put to rights
And loaded full to winning.
And soon along the country roads
Ola Santa ClLus was skimminE.
Now here. now there. his sPrghty deer
With airy lightncss ilrtci.
As fresh when miles and miles away
As when they just had started.
The fleecy flakes kept coming down.
The rambling roaiways hiding.
Yet on and on they flew along
Like shadows swiftly gliding,
But ere his journey was quite DER
St, Nick met trouble dire;
The roads kept filling up apace.
The snow kept ping higher.
And from his sight the earth was hid
BY flakes SO thickly flying.
He could not find the road at all.
But still he kept on trying.
Here was indeed for Santa Claus
An awkward situation.
And one that for the moment filled
His mind with consternation:
The kindly soul was sad with fear
That on the morrow morning
Some disappointed little friends
His absence would be mourning
Still. trusting that kind Providence
Would help him in his trouble.
ST. Nick his faithful reindeer steeds
Their efforts urged TO double;
And often with cheering word
The jaded beasts he aided.
While on ahead through snowdrifts deep
To find the road he waded.
At length. amid the flying flakes.
By chance old Santa sighted
Not far away signpost tail.
Whereat he was delighted.
The sign upon the post contained
The welcome information
That close at hand the road ran straight
Unto his destination.
With hope renewed the good old saint
Along the roadway struggled:
And soon he reached sleeping town
Which in a valley snuggled.
Here ended Santa Christmas calls
And here his sleigh he Iightened.
Then homeward quickly off he sped
Ere Sol the landscape Frightened.

The Herald complains that there
are people in Utah who do not mani
fest sufficient interest in politics. If SO
we have not met them, The fact is
We have never seen a k eener interest
In politics than the people here exhibit.
A vast majority feel a patriotic interest
born of most sincere desire to see
the territory prosper and grow to be
one of the leading western states.
There are others who are selfish, just
as we find in any and all the states,
who are in keen chase after the honors
and emoluments of Office. Some of the
sliekest political enterprises to beat
the other fellow we have ever seen. we
have seen right here IN Utah. The
Herald surely may dismiss lis appre-
tensions on this score.
