There Are Countless Pretty and mex
pensive Triiies.
BY all means let the gifts to your gem
tlemen friends be something useful to
himself, however ornamental or valuable
they may be. We have all heard of the
man whose Christmas gift was Il pair of
lace curtains or delicate silk drape, or
something else which the wife had long
desired!
There are countless pretty trifles for
men. In families where there are many
presents to be given, it is desirable to
know of some pretty thing at which
man will not look scornfully.
Solid silver scarfholders are to be had
for 65 cents and upward. Then there
are silver keyrings in heart shape. and
other novel forms ut same price n
great variety of pretty scarf pins is to be
had. There are posta gestamp holders
also in silver, matchboXes and court
plaster receivers. A set of collar and
cuff buttons, two for the collar and two
for the inner cuffs, never comes amlss.
There is the more expensive pair OF Gun
buttons for the fine linen outer cuffs.
These should be handsome and somewhat
plain to be in best taste.
If Il gift must be made by hand, let 1t
surely be something useful.
n plush and silk box to hold handker-
chiefs will be an ever present, ever use
full ornament on the top of Il mans dress
ing table. Handkerchiefs are SO liable
to get scattered.
A pretty and useful gift for Il bnche-
Tor friend is a little housewife $50
called. 1t consists of a heart-shaped
needlecase. the inner leaves cut from
fine white flannel and daintily scallopcd
and worked i'll some color of silk, pale
blue is pretty. The outside of this nee
dle-case of chamois, bound with mar
row pale blue ribbon and worked with

touch of natural yellow in their centcrs.
a smaller heart-shaped emery bag for
pins (also covered with pale blue ribbon
and worked with forget-menots) and an
elongated head with n slit near the top
TO admit the point of tiny pair of scis-
sors between the two ribbon-bound thick
nesses of chamois, these all suspended
by n narrow blue ribbon tied in a bow
together at the top, make Il useful and
pretty tritie. There is sufficient work
upon this little housewife to make it
rank above trities us Il Christmas offer

each square open until a piece of the
duck has been slipped between. The

FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.
Old Santa Claus at Crow Agency.

Santa Claus will need an extra relay
year. After he has made his calls in
the towns and cities, he will have to
scamper across the snow covered plains
of South Dakota, some hundreds of
miles from any big town. to keep an
appointment with the little Indian chill
dren at Grow agency. There are eighty
six of them ut the school, ranging from
to II years of age. Santa Claus made
his first call there last year. and these lit
tie Indians fell in love with him. He
brought them sleds and skates, and dolls
and lot of good things to eat, and they
are looking forward to his return with
great expectations.
The Crows are Il peaccable and indus
trious tribe. They are the handsome
and heroic type of Indian which Long
fellow has described in his poems. The
day before Christmas these tall men and

gaily-colored blankets, their faces paint
ed red. their head-dress decked with
feathers. and their feet in moccasins.
Uncle SAM who is represented by Capt.
Watson at the agency, is very generous
at Christmas time, and the brilliantly
decorated tree at the school is an OBJ
ject of great interest to them. They
sit smiling with evident delight, while
their children recite and sing. 1t is 4
thing to touch ones heart to see these
dusky little children of the plains, their
faces touched with Christmas sentiment
and their voices lifted in ''the new song"

have a corsage bouquet of bright red
flowers tied with red ribbon, and for the
gentlemen boutonnieres of mistletoe. to

Home Journal. Have suspended over
the table ii little above the tree large
bell of red flowers, from the top of
which, reaching to each plate. may hang

why He Didn't Happen to Wear 1t that
Winter.


Tompkins needed winter overcoat.
and he needed it badly, says the New
York Herald
But when he came home to his mothr-
less kids that night. on Christmas night.
he found two little red stockings hanging
by their beds and the children were sound
asleep. doubtless dreaming of the happy
surprises that Santa Claus had in store for
them on the morrow.
IF | didn't have to buy that coat for
myself" muttered Tompkins, Il might be
able to do something for the dear little
things: but I've got to have Il coat
Then he carefully tucked an orange into
each little stocking. He found, however.
that one of them contained II wad of
paper. This he drew out, and by the
dim light in the room saw that it was
carefully folded and was addressed to
"Sandie Kors." This is what Tompkins
read:

long. But while these exercises look
like tomfoolery to the old Indians, be-

each other with smiles of approval as
their children stand on the platform and
perform their parts.

THE NATIVITY.

1t Is the worlds glad morn;
The royal child Is born
First born of Heaven of the mother maid.
No palace walls surround
Him whom the angels crowned.
King in the cradle of the manger laid.
The skies are dark and dim:
One star comes down to Him
The star all glorious in truth arrayed--
Star from brighter sky,
Light that shall never die,
Points to the manger where the King Is laid.
Say not that thou hast found
Him whom the angels crowned.
First born of Heaven of the mother maid.
Till from the sky afar
The spirits morning star
Points to the glory of thy Lord displayed.
1t is thy Christmas morn
When in the heart is born
The child Of Heaven and the mother maid;
Dark though the sky may be,
'TiS thy nativity
Then is the glory of the Lord displayed.
