The Tree rha. Win Please the Children.

A Christmas tree, if it is to be a Joy
to children's hearts, must blossom with
sll manner of strange and glittering
fruit, such as no tree outside OF fairy
land has ever borne. Any Christmas
gifts that are cumbersome or large
are best heaped around the tree, as
such articles weigh down the branches
of the tree and destroy it's symmetry.
Among the gay things are gilded balls
of various sizes, strings of colored
glass, glass talls OF bright colors,
bright-colored egg-shaped ornaments,
butterflies, drums, and' helmets OF
gilded paper, goldfish, and silverhsh,
and turtles, and such musical instru'
ments as horns and balls. There are
also bonbonnieres and stars, and among
the more costly things winged figures
of the Christ child, or Of Santa Claus.
Threads of tinsels are inexpensive and
brilliant, and where there is some one
to watch every minute nothing can be
prettier or more delightful than tree
twinkling with many tapers. = New
