Don't Bug Bargain Presents.

Speaking of Christmas reminds me that
it is not always safe to buy bargain presents
for your friends who live in the same town
with you. It's all right to do it if you are
sending the gifts outside the city's shopping
limits, but when you undertake to present
your immediate friends with the cuttings of
the marked down" sales of holiday week
You run a big risk. For instance, one of the
big dry goods shops made a special feature
of liberty silk ruches, cutting the price ex-
actly in half. They really were a tremen-
dous bargain. Any woman who was not
blind could see that with one eye shut and
it was no wonder that they sold like hot
cakes. a liberty silk ruche that looks like
a "a one and costs just 81 cents is not to be
despised. Pretty nearly every woman who
went into that store looking for Christmas
presents bought one and happen to know
of four women who bought three apiece and
sent them to the other three. And as a con-
sequence to-day those four women are the
possessors of liberty silk ruches that are
as alike as two peas in a pod and each one
of them cherishes a secret opinion OF the
other three.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

THE CHILD'S FESTIVAL.
There Is a Special Significance in Christ
mas for the Little Ones.

The true Children's day is Christmas. The
Lord of the feast was a child in Bethlehem,
and He still loves little children as He did
when, in the strength of His manhood, He
took them in His arm and blessed them.
If there were no children in our world to
receive and enjoy, the advent time would
lose much of its beauty and delight. The
child's Imagination, which transforms COM
m%onplace things, the child's receptivity,
which does not stop to question, but enjoys
these reflect themselves upon our minds
and bring us for the moment into the child
like mood of happiness. Nor is the child's
thought of happiness simply one of getting.
Neither the gift nor the surprise of the
gift, dear as these are to the child's heart,
brings as much pleasure as the planning and
the giving. The best of Christmas is enjoyed
before ever Christmas comes. We older ones
need to be reminded every year that love is
more than elaboration at the Christmas
time, and that the value of the gift is meas
ured by the affection of the giver; but I'M
spoiled children know it and act upon it,
as if there could be no doubt of it at all, and
we would all be happier at Christmas if we
were to learn of them. Then would the
Christmas burden, of which so many are
complaining, turn to pure delight.-Congre-
nationalist.

THE NIGHT FORE CHRISTMAS.
Ri .JOr LINCOLN

Most centrally at eight o'clock 1 go up
stairs to bed,
An les undress an say my prayers an
cover up my head,
An shut my eyes up goodn tight an go 10
sleep, an then
First thing know it's mornin', an time to
git up again.
Some nights, er course, don't seem SO snort
like fore the Fourth, yer know,
Or fore a feller's birthday, or the night
jes' fore yer go
To visit gran'pa-oh, my, yes! they're
kinder long, but, gee!
The night that comes fore Christmas is a
million years to me.
Seems's If December, anyway, s the long
est month they is;
The months that's in the summer, why
they go so fast they whiz,
But old December crawls along, so kinder
slow and late
That Christmas keeps so far away seems
s if you couldn't wait.
An when yer've marked off all the days
but one, an that's most through,
An yer've hanged up yer stockin' right
'longside the chimney fue,
An said GOOD night an gone upstairs,
my, don't the minutes creep!
Cause when he knows it's Christmas eve
no boy can go to sleep.
Yer hear the old hall clock tick tock'' an
hear the wind, so low
An kinder soft an lonesome like, jes' s
if twas goin' to snow;
An Then yer wonder If 1t will, SOS yer can
slide next day,
An then yer think bout Sanity an his rein
deer, an his sleigh.
Yer wonder what he'll bring yer, an yer
wonder how he guessed
YER wanted skates las Christmas an a
bowgun an the rest;
An then yer try to git to sleep, an then,
er course, yer Don't,
An then yer say: "NVell, you jes' will"
an then, er course, yer won't.
l s'pose it must be right, but, oh! some
times it does seem wrong
That hat one night boys wants so short
should be so extra long;
I've tried to think out why it is, but all
the 'scuse I've found
Is that it's long so Sanity he'll a time
to git around.
But 1 know this, I'm mighty glad l amt

An Important Dau.

Nowhere is New Years day more fes-
lively observed than in the east, and es-
pecially in Mohammedan lands. In Persia
the No ROOF, (as the new year is called)
is by far the most important holiday OBJ
served by the subjects of the shah. On
New Years eve the fun begins with the
kindling of huge b%onfires, and among the
more active it is considered the correct
thing to leap over or through the flames.
The Persian is careful to perform his fire
dance in old garments, for on New Years
day every one who has the means is bound
by the s~trictest custom to appear in new
clothcs.-N. Y. Sun.

Tho Growth Of Farming.

During recent years we have be
come somewhat accustomed to hear
of the decay Of agriculture as pur'
suit. 1t has been a favorite theme
for sociological pessimists, and the
conclusions they have reached were
dire indeed as involving the ultimate
downfall of our present social and
political fabric because of the lack OF
rural and excess or urban develop.
ment Now, however, comes LIE
Grand Powers, chief statisticisn in
charge of the agricultural section of
the Twelfth census, with the state
ment that his department will show
that there are at least 300, 900 plots
of ground entitled to be called farms
under cultivation in the United
States and that this is an approxi-
mate increase of !, 100000 over the
number returned for the Eleventh
census In making his appro1ima-
tion MIR. Powers has eliminated all
schedules returned which do not
cover ground which can rightly be
classed under the general head Of
agriculture, cutting out western
ranches devoted to stock raising, and
city or suburban garden patches and
the like.
Some comfort can be drawn from
these figures. It appears that de
spite the mad rush to the city, and
rapid growth of urban population
with its attendant congestion and
misery, the pursuit or agriculture
has not Jagged. Here is showing
of farms added to the list at the rate
of 114,O00 annually; 2,192 and Il
little over for each week, and 313
for eabh day. There is nothing dis
couraging in this. Even the most
depressed of social philosophers
must find grain of solace in such
growth.
Pursuing the topic, Mr.. Powers
gives figures that are still more in
spring. In the nine states OF the
North Atlantic division, Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont. Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania,
he finds that while the number of
farms has increased from 4S9, 754 in
1850 to 100000 in 1900, the acre
age of farm land is substantially the
same in 1900 as in 1850, showing no
important change in respect to agri-
culture in forty years. In the eight
states of the South Atlantic division
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West
Virginia, North Carolina, South Car
olina, Georgia and Florida and the
District of Columbia, practically the
same conditions prevail, with an in
crease in number in farms from 248,.
