Ping.POng

Who cares to play at cricket?
Who cares to kick a ball?
To suffer hacks at hockey
Or chance a nasty fall?
Far better don your slippers,
Enjoy your cigarette,
Play ping-pong in the parlor
Across a little net
In cycling there are tumbles,
Ana punctu1able tires;
And if you hunt, perhaps you come
A cropper on the wires.
In rowing there are blisters
That possibly may chafe,
But ping-pong in the parlor
Is absolutely safe.
The river has it's dangers,
The picnic has its snares,
The motor car may run away
Or butt you unawares.
It is a consolation
No parent will deny,
That ping-pong in the parlor
Would never hurt a fly.
Our prowess in athletics
May pass to other lands
And later generations see
Our cups in foreign hands;
Yet still the might of England
Shall everywhere be known
At ping-pong in the parlor
Our sons shall hold their own.
Then twirl your tiny racquets,
And pat your celluloid;
Be careful that your quick returns
The coffee cups avoid.
Flick hard, ye men of sinew,
And pirouette in stylel
The ladies of the parlor
Are watching all the while.

FRUITS THAT ARE LATE.
Sickle Pears, Grapes and Ounces
still in Market.

Despite the fact that winter is now
at hand and the change from autumn
fruit to those of winter Is going stead
lily on, II is surprising to find how many
of the former fruits are still In market.
Among these, for instance, are some
very fine sickle pears, both of the large
and small variety, some few of them
being unusually large, and strange to
say, they are not very high, retailing
at rs to 30 cents per quart.
Aside from these. other pears are
quite general in market, among them
being comice. winter Nellis and Call
fornia Bartletts, all of them good, but
with a large variety of prices, ranging
from so to 80 cents per dozen.
Another fruit still left are ounces.
but they are fast growing scarcer, and
are high at so cents per dozen. ANY
housekeeper who has left her ounce
preserves and jelly until now, will pay
well for the delay. as they are sold at
IS cents a dozen when the market Is
stocked. A few plums can still be
found in market. and considerable
quantity of domestic grapes, mainly
Niagaras and Catawbas, although the
Concords are not all gone. All of these
grapes are in good condition. though
the best are the tokays and Malagas.

CHRISTMAS PLANS.

Christmas. the happiest and jolliest
season of all the year. is almost here
again. Many will be the cheerful
greetings. tokens of love and costly
presents exchanged and many are the
hearts that will be made glad.
All will cndeavor TO forget unpleas-
ant things and in one way or another
make this the happiest day of their
lives. This is natural. and no wonder
when we consider with what 10Y. rev.
erence and alteration the first Precious
Gift and Token of Love was received.
There were poor people in those days.
and there have been poor people ever
since, even neglected poor, but the
gift was TO all alike. Now as the time
draws near which we celebrate with
so much JOY and gladness. can we not
DO something for the unfortunate to
brighten their homes, alleviate their
pain. remove their burdens. and bring
cheer and gladness to their hearts
bring the old year to a close with it's
cares and anxieties forgotten, and give
impetus for coming years.
Our better Judgment makes us be-
lieve that people don't need help be-
cause they are unwilling to work. but
