Says the Chicago Times Herald; If
women are supplanting men in some
occupations, men "began it," The
spinning, the knitting, even the weav-
ing, the making of garments, all OF
cooking and preserving, the products
of the dairy, were not many years ago
household duties performed almost
entirely by women. These occupa-
tions now give employment to large
numbers of men as well rs of women.

croaching upon his industrial domain,

TIp YuIe Log.

In some part of Germany the Yule
log is placed OF the hearth on Christ
mas Eve, and, 1 possible, kept burn
ing for two three days. Then a
piece of it is lid aside for the purpose
of lighting the next years log and of
guarding the household from harm.
Pieces of firwood charred, but not
quite burnt oft in the Christmas fire,
are also placd under the family bed
in some German villages to avert the
dreaded ligh ming stroke, which ap-
pears in thisrelation to be the type OF
fire in its evi aspect, in contradistinc-
ton from tbe solar orb, the represen-
tative of beneficent light and warmth.
The custom of burning Yule log for
three days and nights in each home
stead is almost certainly q survival
from the alteration once offered to the
sun at the winter solstice.
Three centuries after the Christian
era sun worship was still maintained
in Brittany; and in Normandy, not
more than o hundred years ago, the
household fire was extinguished on
December "a, aud the Christmas los
was ignited by the aid Of flame pro
cured from the lamp burning in the
neighboring church. This fact affords

transference Of respect and reverence

In the United States Americans Of
German origin still initiate the ways
of their Fartherland. and make par
ticular cakes for the Christmas holi-
days, and so follow the ideas Of their
forefathers. The Puritan rather
frowned down such little matters.
Early New England, however, retained
something like the plum pudding and
the Christmas pastries. There are,
however, not many special survivals
OF special food to be consumed on par
ticular religious festivals in the United
States. In old Engilnd, long after
the Reformation, Oh certain days cake
was distributed in churches, and
penny loaves were thrown from church
towers, to be scrambled for. Hot
cross buns are barely in vogue in the
United States. Once st. Valentines
Day was celebrated in England by the
sending Of cakes. Fancy cards and

Owing to the increasing industrial
ism in Germany, the bodily length and
strength of the factory population is
steadily diminishing. This is fac
tor which is beginning to be felt seri-
ously in making up the annual quota
of recruits for the army. Some of the
exclusively industrial districts by the
Rhine and in Westphalia, as well as
in Silesia, Saxony and Thuringia, do
not furnish fifty per cent. of the re-
cruits they did fifteen years ago. In
one whole village, populous one of
more than 5000 inhabitants near Cott-
bus, not single young man of mill
tary age fit to bear arms was found.

Growth of American Christina. Custom.

| Growth OF American Christmas Customs.
America has welcomed and adopted
the Christmas tree with cordial affec-
tion and treated il as il IL were prod
uct OF her own inventive brain. Trans
planted to the United States by the
early Dutch settlers of New York and
by the Germans who established them
selves in Pennsylvania, it grew and
flourished as it did in its native soil.
Its advance was slow, but in 1880 the
Christmas tree had become fixed
factor in the holiday celebrations, not
only in families of direct German
descent, but among that composite
population called American. Small
cedar trees were first used, and were
called "Christmas bushes" They
were decorated with rosy apples, paper
flowers, n few small candles, gilded
nuts and christmas cakes" This
last confection seems to be entirely
out of date. 1t took the form of small
horses, dogs, COWS, hearts and dia-
monds, and was n combination of flour
and water paste and white and colored
sugar frosting. Even by those who
recall the Christmas cake with fondest
recollection it is admitted to have been
rather delight to the eye than a joy
to the palate or the digestion.
AS years went on, and the young
nation grew older and richer and the
life of the people more luxurious and
complex, the christmas bushes, I"
with their paper flowers, and "Christ-
mas cakes" developed into tree,
which is often an elaborate and expen-
sive affair.
But it is not in civilized or Chris
tian lands alone that this wonderful
Christmas tree grows. Missionaries
have planted it in China, in Japan, in
India, Africa, in the islands of the
sea, SO that yellow, brown and black
faces, as well as white, gaze up at it
with delight. New York Mail and Ex-

For several months a new system
Of trading has been in vogue in Wash.
ington, known as "the stamp plan"
A customer going into store which
belongs to the association, relates the
Chicago Record, is given ten cent
stamp with every dollars worth of
merchandise purchased. That stamp
is accepted in payment for other mer-
chandise purchased at central agency
conducted by the manager of the as
sociation. This system has become
quite popular, but has been COM
planned of by merchants who have not
adopted it, and at their instigation
the authorities arrested the manager
and one of the most prominent mer-
chants in town on the charge of con.
Quoting gift enterprise in violation
OF an act OF congress. The defendants
were convicted and fined 500 each,
but their attorney gave notice of an
appeal, and they were released upon
bonds of $500 until test case may be
carried to the upper courts to deter
mine the constitutionality of the law.
The counsel for the stamp company
argued that the offering OF Q premium
equally 70 all customers is not viola
tiOn of the law because tha claimant
of chance does not enter into the
transaction--the merchant simply
gives the customer discount or 4 re-
bate upon the purchase price. He
holds that if the stamp systeu, is un-
lawful, the Rochdale system and all
other cooperative enterprises are
equally so, and that tea merchants
and others who give away china and
glassware and chromos are guilty Of
violation Of the law. Several soap
companies and cigar dealers offer pre-
miums for patronage in the same
manner. The stamp system is in use
in several other cities, and the mana
ger claims its legality has never be-
fore bseu questioned. II will be
several months before the court OF
appeals oan hear the case, but the de-
cisiop will be . matter Of general in.
