A Friendship Calendar.

A friendship calendar as a Christmas
gift was a source of much pleasure to
an elderly lady living alone, says Good
Housekeeping. At her request each
one of fifty-two of her friends, repre-
senting the tifty-two weeks of the year,
furnished material for every day of the
seven in his week. Each one followed
out his own idea for the weeks caleb
dar, contributing favorite quotations,
short poems, anecdotes and reminis-
cences, some even adding cherished
recipes. In many instances the contri-
buttons We're original. Others were il
Illustrated with small pictures cut from
current magazines. The result was a
perpetual calendar, each day represent
ing the loving thought of friend.

Christmas service In Stable.

At Santa Cruz, Cal, there is an old
Spanish church in which the people
worship only on Christmas eve. Ex-
ternally it looks like a stable and has
no chandelier The floor and walls are
of stone, and on the eastern side there
is a manger, looking through the bars
of which one sees the scenes of the Ma
tivity, with the towers of castles and
palaces in the distance In the fore
ground the Virgin sits by the manger,
holding the infant Saviour, with st.
Joseph leaning over her and the wise
men offering sheep, oxen and various
precious gifts. Outside this exterior
stable there are figures of men carry
ing sheep and calves on their shout
ders, Fastening to the sacred scene. In
this chapel worshipers remain all night
on their knees. This manger side of
the church is against the east wall,
high upon which is the only window in
the edifice, SO that the first rays of the
morning sun irradiate the scenes Of
the Nativity. The rays lend a roseate
glow, and as soon as this reaches the
worshipers they leave the church, light
cigarettes and begin their festivities.

A Christmas Game.

A Yuletide version of the donkey
party is played thus: On a sheet sketch
or paste a design of Christmas tree.
Have each branch of the tree termi-
nate in circle containing a number,
using the numbers from one to ten or
one to twenty-five, according to the
size of the tree. Each person playing
is blindfolded in turn and is given a
rosette with which he must decorate
the tree Each person aims to pin
his or her rosette on or near to the
highest number of the tree. Each COM
petitor has three trials the three num-
bers to which he pins nearest being
written down to his credit by the host
ess, who keeps tally. The one whose
three numbers added together gives
the largest sum total wins the first
prize.

CHRISTMAS IN SWEDEN.
One Day When There Are Neither
Rich Nor Poor.

If you were in Sweden ON Christmas
eve you would hear the church bells
begin to ring at O'clock, for every
body stops work then and the festivi-
ties begin in great earnest everywhere
in the kingdom Glass distinctions are
forgotten and servants are allowed to
sit at table with the family. After sup
per comes the universal Christmas
tree, for Sweden is one of the early
homes of this beautiful custom.
On Christmas morning at 6 o'clock,
while it is still dark, you would go to
church, for everybody goes, unless you
stayed at home to mind the lights in
the house, for every home in the king
dom is illuminated There is almost
sure to be a deep snow, and you would
go to church in sleigh Behind every
sleigh you would see two boys stand
ing on the runners and holding pine
torches-a beautiful spectacle as long
procession of sleighs glides over the
snow on forest road. These torches
are stuck up in circle around the
church. A whole week is given to
good cheer and hospitality.

her hand, which he grasped. At the
same moment the clock at the other
end of the hall began to strike the
hour. 1t was an old fashioned time
keeper with enormous weights and
wheezed out its arithmetic strokes with
tionless, their elasped hands concealed
under a fold of the lady's dress, their
eyes turned upon the front door, Each
stroke brought them nearer to con-
summation of their bargain. At the
fourth there was tinkle of the cleo
trio doorbell. At the eighth a servant
passed the couple on his way to open
the front door, Arnold put out his foot,
and the man went sprawling on the
floor At the eleventh stroke the serv-
ant was on his feet and rubbing his
shins. At the twelfth he proceeded on
his way. There was pressure be-
tween the two concealed hands. In an
other moment the door opened and Mr..
Trotter entered

tin, but none that brought her such re-
lief and at the same time such happi-
ness as this one. Instead of being

knew to be the man she could love.
Ralph Arnold was indeed a promoter
and had made fortune in organizing

he telegraphed his acceptance of an Of

THE MYSTIC MIsTLEToE.
Once a Feature OF Pagan Rites. 1t
Now Belongs to Lovers.

From time immemorial the white
part in Yuletide festivities. though it
has not always conveyed the osculato-
~ privileges which give it its value in
the eyes of the romantic youth of to-
day. Like SO many other features of
the Christmas celebration, mistletoe
nas been borrowed from the pagans of
antiquity and Christianized by the
lapse of centuries. u le Persians be-
fore the birth Of Christ used the mis-
tletoe in their sacred rites, and in parts
of India pagan priests still incorporate
it in their ritual. 1t figures largely in
Scandinavian mythology Baldur, the
son of Odin, sthough Il demigod, was
slain by spear of mistletoe, a proof
of its magic powers.
1t is from the Druids of old England,
however, that mistletoe has come to
us. The Druidical priests, sprung, it
is said, from the magi of the east, the
wise men who worshiped at the cradle
Of the infant Saviour, held the mistle
toe as their most sacred possession
and the cutting Of the pretty parasite
from the oak, the tree which the
Druids claimed God loved more than
any other, was attended with the
greatest solemnity. On the Druids fes
tiyal day a grand procession, leading
two white oxen. moved to the mystic
grove. There the oxen were fastened
to the oak by their horns. and white
robed priest climbed into the leafiess
branches and cut the punches of mis-
tletoe with a golden knife. The oxen
were then sacrificed and religious serv-
ices performed, after which the pro.
cession returned to the temple in the
forest and the mistletoe was deposited
in the Druidical arcanum.
Besides taking it's place in the reli
gious observances of the Druids, the
mistletoe. which the priests gave a
name meaning 'sall healing was made
into many curious decoctions by proc
esses in which times and seasons and
lamentations were supposed to add to
its mysterious powers. These medi-
cines We're regarded as cures for human
ills generally, whether of mind or body
With the advance of civilization and
the death of superstition mistletoe has
lost its religious character, but not its
popularity, and the forests of England
and of our own southern states are as
eagerly frequented by mistletoe gath
erers as ever were the dark woods Of
the ancient Druids.

1t was Christmas eve at the Eyrie,
che country seat of the Martins, set
on pinnacle in the hills. The place
had been opened for the holidays, and
the family, with number of guests,
formed a delightful house party" To-
night general merrymaxing was in or
der. In the hall before the great open
fireplace, iii which logs were blazing,
sat Edith Martin with Ralph Arnold, a
recent arrival from the west who had
been devoted to her since they had first
met, a week before.
You are not in harmony with the
OCCASION he said to her. Instead of
a happy Christmas look on your face
there is a troubled one"

The nnv Of Hone

The day of the Nativity is the day of
hope the day of hope to the struggling
conscience of man; to the human ma
ture which is uplifted in Christ and
made partaker of God; to the families
of men who believe that sacred human
love is not given to perish with the
earth, but in Christ is destined to some
eternal purpose; to all who labor and
pray for the coming of a kingdom
where God shall reign in men, and men
shall live in peace and good will, where

A Christmas Game.

"Christmas candles is a good old
time game A lighted candle is placed
upon table. The player is blindfold-
ed and stationed with his back to the
candle, about a foot from it. He's
then told to take three steps forward,
turn around three times then to walk
four steps toward the candle and blow
it out His attempt to do so will prob
ably be as amusing to the audience as
disconcerting to himself. Country Life
