Old Christmas Customs

One custom that has come to us from
across the sea is that OF hanging up
stockings on Christmas eve. Little chill
dren are taught that ST. Nicholas brings
in gifts 10 them through closed win
dows and it is supposed this custom
started from tradition that st. Nicho-
las used TO throw purses of money in
through the windows of poor maidens
so that they might have marriage por-
tions.
Howison. in his sketches of Upper
Canada. says that he met once at mid
night on a beautiful moonlight Christ

creeping along on the ground. Upon
being questioned the Indian motioned

Miss Gertrude Vanderbilt is another

And the walking lessons-how are
they conducted?
First, the neophyte is taught TO
stand correctly, as the whole secret OF
grace Is poise. Once this is acquired a

must remain free.

This is a much more difficult feat than
one might imagine, the human body

balancing is utterly lost.
