Sending Christmas Gifts


Fifty cents spent in tissue-paper and
baby" ribbon will enable you to add
hundred per cent to the gracious effect
OF all your Christmas-presents a diamond
necklace sent from the shop does not
give such an impression of love from the
giyer as a set OF doilies perfumed with
sachet-powder, done up with dainty wrap
pings. tied with a ribbon to match, and
set of as a final touch with spray OF
holly or mistletoe, slipped under the love-
knot.
The whole Christmas look of things and
the pleasure they give Is largely the re-
suit of such little signs OF taste and care
in the way OF presentation. Many Vara-
lions on such methods can be made.
Japanese napkins make pretty wrappings
for small packages, and they can De Sc
lected in various colors with ribbons 10
match, or ball Of gold or silyer-cord
can become a source OF pretty magnln-
cence at q trivial cost. Pretty baskets and
boxes, japanese lacquered boxes, for IN
stance, are charming, too, for holding
half a dozen handkerchiefS or pairs OF
gloves.
And don't neglect to have all delicately
perfumed-there Is an effect OF luxury III
that that mere expensiveness Is power
less to convey. Silk and velvet boxes are
apt to be tawdry, and, II not so at nrst'
they soon become so, but II you want 10
line your baskets or make silk mats Tor
the bottoms OF your lacquered boxes, all
the better and your mats and Innings
make the best receptacles for holding
your sachet-powder
Again, on the other hand, II you give
vase or a bit OF china or glass OF any
kind put a few flowers in the vase, or
some candy in the dish: never mind II
flowers or sweets are cheap-that ls not
the point; the attention is what adds so
much to Che present. II is that that
takes takes away the look of duty
present." and a duty present is surely
the most ungracious and un-Christmas-
like form OF social exchange. Another
thng-dont give your presents a week
before or a week after Christmas. Take
pains to see that they arrive where they
should on Christmas-eve. or Christmas
morning. Nothing coming any other time
ever gives the real child-like joy that IL
should. And don't tell people what you
are going to give them. Christmas Is the
children's festival. and the prettiness or
II lies in keeping its childish character.
Preserve It's mystery and you help to sus-
tain one Of its most charming traditions.

Christmas Night of '62.

The wintry blast goes wailing by.
The snow Is falling overhead;

And softly speak Of home and home.

The old hall wreathed with mistletoe.

Who among US, amid our most serious
cares and duties, in all the busy haunts
Of our fellows. even when plotting,
scheming. working alike with friends and
fees, does not often go, If only for n
brief moment, in fondest, gentlest
memory to his boyhood days-those dear
departed days never to return, never TO
be recalled?
We take 1t there is much the same
feeling of real, live. honest, natural boy

gree and quality TO all OF US at times
however briefly 1t may be, feeting and
transient. often suggested by the very
slightest incident when least expected
in our everyday life. These feelings are
mere or less pathetic, sometimes bringing
tears TO our eyes and a tender sadness
TO our hearts. But. withal, there is ever

BERLIN, Aug. 18.-The grand fail review of the Guard du Corps took place today on. the .Pem pelhofer field. The emperor was accompanied on horseback by the empress. With them rode the whole emperial suite in the glory of full gala dress. The review was as imposing as ever. More than 32, 900 troops marched past the emperial couple and saluted. The three elder princes marched with the first company of foot guards, trotting along bravely to hold their places in the vast procession.
 The display was watched by the usual crowds, but in the citxI Ihe day was not ob- served heartily. FlagSiwere hung in the streets, but were few in number. Many Americans had come from Dresden to join those here in seeing the review, but most of them were disappointed, as the United States embassy could get only ten permits for carriages to draw up by the flag post. All the rest of the cards had been given to officials and other embassies.
 The emperor's return to Berlin has closed one of his busiest travelling seasons. The newspapers say that since the last August parade on the Pempelhof field he has passed but 166 days In Berlin or Potsdan. The other 199 he has passed in journeys through Germany or abroad. He devoted twenty seven days of the 199 70 army ma neuvers, sixteen to official visits, twenty one to hls AbbaZzia trip and the rem ainder to hunting, sailing aud the like. During this time he covered 5000 kilometers, ex- elusive of his many short journeys in the neighborhood of Berlin.
 The south German newspapers criticise adversely the emperor's call upon the ex- Empress. Eugenie in England after the Aldershot review last Tuesday. They con- tend that whatever the emperor's personal feeling may be and however friendly he may oe disposed toward the woman who precipitated the Franco Prussian war he cannot divest himself of the character of they add, he could hardly be regarded in place at Eugenie's tea table.
 The Dresdener Nachtrichten speaks thus poin tedly: The impulsve, high minded ness of the. Emperor must yield Go cool political reason. Tbe ex. Empress Eugenie Is not mere private person, and in visit ing her the Emperor has placed him self in connection with his own recent acts of friendliness to the French republic.
 The Bismarckian newspapers comment with equal severity on the emperor's poll icy. The editor of the Hamburger Nachrich- ton is especially vexed because the emperor wore his English uniform when he made the call. Such attire, he says, was on this position and dignity. The general belief in Berlin is that the emperor visited Eu genie al Queen Victoria's request.
 'fhe president of the German Agriculture league recently wrote to Chancellor Won Caprivi request that agricultural experts be attached 10 German embassies.
 This request was supported by paper signed by members of the league. The chancellor decided this week to grant the

 Most of the anarchists who were arrested this week in Berlin have been known for some time as violent law breakers. They are quite different from the French theorists who have just been tried in Paris. Only one man of education is now posing in Berlin as defender of an- archists. He Is the versatile Freiherr Von Eggy, retired colonel, who contested seat for the reichstag here last summer. In his journal, Reconciliation, he pulp
 ished on Monday defense of Santo Caes- ario, tne murderer of President Carnot. 'tCaesario did not murder for the sake of murdering," wrote Eggy. "Quite possi- ply he believed that he was helping to protect and to assure to humanity the most sacred privilege of the race. We must be careful. therefore, to distinguish between the bloody fiend and the noble anarchist. !"
