BREAD RIOTS IN ITALY
TWENTY-THREE PROVINCES IN \

Grinding Taxation has Raised the

LONDON. May 10.-ltaly is in a
ferment. Terrible riots have taken
place in Rome. Milan, Florence and
other places. Twenty-three provinces

The riots are largely the outcome
of crushing taxation, which makes ev-

Dodo stood absently twisting the neck
of the bag about the pan of beans If
there was only some way of sending his
dinner back to him and making him keep
their plum pudding for dessert! Then
she started violently.
Nan was talking to somebody, and some
body was answering in rich baritone
voice that certainly did not belong to old
Mrs Stone. What Nan said was:
1--WE had just discovered the exchange.
My friend took your package by mistake.
Thank you very much for bringing our
pudding back !" Dodo's eyes and ears
were wonder stretched at Mans, next
words. 'Wo would be so glad to have
you co:Me in and take dinner with us
that is, unless you have friends with you
up stairs. "
The rich baritone said sadly, mo; there
is no one waiting for me to come back"
Then said Nan, with gravesweetness:
1--WE ask you to stay. Our own Christmas
will be the gladder for knowing that you
are not all alone" And, with grateful
glance beyond her into the little holly
decorated ROOM he said, "If 1 might

come back with a green wreath that had
red star in its center. Almost every
window in sight had its green wreath with
red star for a heart. Dodo was the
churchgoer of the twain AS she pierced
her Sunday hat with a long pin she settled
the dinner hour with Nan.
While they were talking the man over
head was walking to and fro with scarce
ly muffled restlessness, which Dodo de-
clared got into her nerves. Then they
heard door open and the same football
pass down the steps.
"I suppose the poor fellow has gone off
to play peace on earth and good will to-
ward man to a church full of rich people
who don't care a copper whether he has
crust of bread today or not"
Nan looked at her severely. "Upon my
word, Dodo, wouldn't let my imagina-
ton run entirely away with me just be-
cause a man over our heads is given to
pacing all day in creaking shoes and the
janitor's wife called him the lonely gem
tleman.
When Dodo got back from church, Nan
put her incharge of affairs while she made
one of those mysterious expeditions of
which Christmas day is always prolific.
When she came back, Dodo was standing
by a table in the kitchen staring tragical-
ly into an open paper bag.
Come look at this, Man," she said
gravely.
Nan walked toward her with apprehen-
sive quickness. OF course something had
gone wrong with the dinner.

"And Mrs. Stone" Nan added as the
twitter of the doorbell sounded through
the little apartment
1t was in a state of complete readiness
for the festive occasion. Mans evergreen

their one front window; beautiful branch

Which Dodo did.
"He belongs to as good family as

"Dodo" said Nan reproachfully; then,
after solemn pause: II will never trust

creaked himself into your sympathies"
''I've already asked Charley what made

. CHRISTMAS GREENS.
How Holly and MistIetoe Came Into |
Use,
nas day.

Uoes
A Christmas without its greens would
be like a winter without snow or a we'd
ding without bells. The popular custom
OF decorating our homes with evergreens
and holly each Christmastide has come
down through the long centuries out of
the twilight shadows Of early Roman
mythology hallowed with poetic associa-
tions. At the annual approach Of the
saturnalia, the Roman feast and revel in
honor of Saturn, it was the habit of the
people of Rome to dress their temples and
dwellings with green boughs. To the
Romans these green's were merely the en-
blem of the returning life and foliage of
the spring, to which the children of sun
clad Italy looked forward with a certain
southern restfulness. The same practice,
though partaking of more religious char
acter existed among the Celtic Druids,
the holly and the mistletoe being regarded
as possessing certain sacred and magical
virtues. 1t was also an old Druidio tradi-
ton that the cross had been made of the
wood of the mistletoe, which originally
was forest tree. After the oruciflxion
they said, 1t was blasted and condemned
to exist only as stunted parasite. The
present Anglo Saxon regard for the mis-
tletoe undoubtedly Is vestigial remnant
of that old pagan superstition.
1t is one of the little ironies of history,
however, that the Viscum album of the
staid old Druids should evolve into our
modern mistletoe and be looked upon as
the authorized encouragcr of the undiG'
nifled osculatory art. AS for holly, on the
other hand, Pliny tells how the Romans
endowed 1t with supernatural powers
planting 1t near their dwellings that they
might not be struck by lightning, and the

The steadily increasing demand for
these Christmas greens has given birth

The Rise and Fall of Football Nose.


1t was during the Thanksgiving day
game with Cornell that Captain John
Outland, one of the stars of old PENIS
team, had his nose broken. 1t was a
comparatively trivial fracture across
the bridge of his nose, the very spot on
which a disfguring lump had been
growing for several months. The lump
was probably caused by a cyst under
the skin, and, although it was in nowise
painful, it was rather disfiguration to
Outland's handsome oountenance. He
had made arrangements with DR.. j.
William White to perform an operation
on the lump and remove the cyst after
the football season, hut the blow dur
ing the game which fractnred his nose
also made an end to the cyst. Outland's
nose has entirely healed from the frac-
ture, and the distiguring lump has en-
tirely disappeared. philadelphia REQ
