this, in regard to the Christmas tree
season, which is near at hand. Every
Christmas brings long list of fatal
ties and property lost by reason of fire
caused by the too liberal use of inf1am.
t1nable decorations and carelessness in
the handling of candles. A single spark
coming in contact with the usual decor
atons of cotton and tinsel is sufficient
to start blaze that may end in a panic
and an appalling loss of life and proper
ty. The infiammable Christmas tree
and the unloaded gun have contributed
materially to mortuary statistics.

lived for centuries and their popular
ity win not wane for several centuries

that's a story" said he; 1--WE been alive seven
years. but 1 amt never had one before" There
are millions Of wretched children Of whom the
same sad saying is true.
In one OF the Leadville inns, on a Christmas
eve some years ago. a group Of miners were
talking in the office. when there entered a
modest little girl. She had in her hand an old,
faded stocking, and she asked the proprietor IL
she might not hang it up by the desk. Why
not in your mothers room?'' was asked. Be
cause I'm afraid Santa Claus wouldn't find IL
there" was the prompt answer. Permission was
given, and she retired. The miners learned that
her mother was a widow, and so poor that she
could not return to her Eastern home. There
upon an old miner, with tears in his eyes, pinned
up the rents in the little stocking. and dropped
in a dollar, allowing that he would make a
good Santa Claus. Miner after miner followed,
till all in the room had contributed, some more
than once, and the poor widow and her child
were thus enabled TO go back home.
Well. the heart Of Christmas is in that little
story. To observe Christmas is 10 do as did
its Founder. 1t was He, as Charles Kingsley
says,
Who taught mankind on that first Christmas Day
What Z was to be a man; to give. not take.
