i It is now time to begin thinking
ho,,t Christmas presents.
4 christmas presents are cheap and
yrhristmas presents are practical
rather than tritlinG.
Several points are to be noted, DOT
:, a search of the shops and in hunt
Through the workrooms of those VINO
ere getting up Christmas presents. The
frst one is that the gifts are for the
most part handmade. Books and
nioces of furniture are. of course, al
vavs acceptable and always popular.
R1t. after all, it is the handmade GIT
which reigns supreme and more than
supreme.
There is this about the made-by-
hand gift. 1t is cheap. And, want is
more it is usually pretty And 1t mas
ether points of acceptability. 1t is
a,vays "made to order And beng
r,ade to order it is sure 20
meet the requirements Of the one for
whom it is intended.
The girl who takes chamols skln
and makes a brushbroom holder for
her brother, splashing it with dashes
q colored paint and trimming 1t
With chamois skin fringe, is sure TO
ee; up something in keeping with his
room, something that he really needs.
And this could never be true of the
Gift that is purchased outright in the
store.
Yet the store-made gifts are pret V.
And if one will buy before the stock
is all pulled over and the best IS
gone. the result will be some hing
gratifying.
There is no time to buy like the

spread out upon the counters. Then
the colors are fresh and the materials
unworn. The assortment is complete
and ycu can buy twice as we'll as

SionarieS.

The idea of a church, or group of
churches, becoming responsible for the
salary OF definite missionary, is grow
ing in favor. The plan has long been
used in the Woman's Board, and with
marked advantages. 1t makes the sense
ofob1igation more definite; it spreads the
information which is necessary to inter
est; 1t brings into more obvious and vital
union the work at home and abroad it
gives new meaning to prayers for for
eign missions, and makes the giving
more intelligent and spontaneous, in
! some cases easily doubling or even treb-
ling the former gifts.
In this state the County Confer
ences have taken an unusual interest
in the new method, and last spring the
Caledonia Conference came into line, vot-
ing to assume the support of a mis-
sionary, and requesting from its churches
a contribution equivalent to fifty cents
from each resident member. A few of
the churches of the county gave more
than this, SO that only portion of their
gift will be assigned to this object; but it
hoped that they will share in the bene-
fits by giving even more generously to
the general fund because of this new in
dividual interest. In the case of most of
the churches, to raise this amount with
out any diversion of the gifts of the
women already pledged to the Woman's
Board, will mean some advance in their
giving. In some communities the aid Of
the Sunday school or the Endeavor So.
Society, or both, will be necessary and
some will have to fall below their quota.
No stigma is to attach to any church in
such case, and no legal obligation is in
volved; goal is setup, and the churches
will get as near to it as they can.
Rev. Charles K Tracy has been
assigned to this county by the American
Board, and he and his wife have spent
Sunday and Monday in the county, not
being able to give more time to visitation
because of their early departure for
Smyrna, the field of their la Dor for the
coming year. Mr.. Tracy is graduate
of Oberlin College and of Hartford Sem
mary; he was born in Marsovan, where
his father is president of Anatolia Col
lege, and he served as tutor there for four
years between his college and seminary
courses. He is a man 81 years old,
marked by an unusual fullness of knowl-
edge as to missionary conditions, able
to talk in Armenian, Greek and Turkish,
as well as English. His addresses at St.
Johnsbury, Danville and Lyndon, showed
frankness and earnestness, tactful in
telligence and friendly humor which
easily won his audiences. Mrs. Tracy,
though speaking little. made an equally
favorable impression, and the young
couple will be followed by many good
wishes and prayers as they go to their
work, which has also become the work
of the Caledonia County Conference
Vermont Missionary.

The Smith Smith letters in the st.
Adams fight probably contributed to the
result of sharp contest there, but St.
Johnsbury was fortunately spared a
newspaper controversy and both the
local papers supported the caucus candi-
date without attacking either of the
other gentlemen. Probably some things
were said in the heat of the struggle that
had better have been left unsaid, but
nobody rushed into print and made any
charges or asked pointed questions.
Now that it is all over let's all try and
prevent three-cornered contest again.

Those who were barking for some
reference to local politics in the rallies
held in this town the past week were dis
appointed as the speakers discussed only
national and state issues. This was as
it should be as any reference to local
issues where two republican candidates
were pitted against each other would
only have have tended to draw votes
away from the republican state ticket.
It was clearly case where silence was
"irrevocably established"

Her Impressions of the Modes.-Frivo-
ious Little PepIums she Vogue
Waistcoats a Feature.
EDITOR CALIFORNIAN:
L am back again with budget of
fashion news which have culled for you
from most bewildering display of ex-
quisite garments for milady's adorn-
ment.
The splendor of the time when France
was at the height of her luxurious ex-
travagance seems to have returned, and
after tentative trial of 1880 and Direc-
toire styles, Dame Fashion is contented
at last with the Louis XVI inspiration
for her motive.
Louis XVI coats as well as short pale
tots of colored suiting silks will be worn
with fancy wool skirts, and when it
comes to suit jackets there areno bounds
to the whimsicalities one finds. The
little basque is more and more in evidence
and often takes on port ways, like, tor
instance the frivolous little peplum. In
all these garments the waistcoat is a
low, and is veritable garment or only
presentiment of it.
With the popularity of the waistcoat
and vogue cf the fitted bodice an ex-
quisitely fitting corset, such as the CT B a
la Spirite is even more essential than
ever. 1t is the foundation upon which a
properly fitting gown is built, and no
woman of fashion but considers it the
most important item of her wardrobe.
Fashions are said to be adaptable to
each individual taste, which fact is in
favor of the woman who has to study
economy in dress, for the more volun1i.
nous styles in skirts are impossible for
the pedestrian to carry in one hand
above the Crime of the streets, and she
who prefers a walking skirt of comfort
able length and build may wear it with
out fear OF being outre.
The woman who prefers to wear the
skirt that requires two hands to carry, if
she wishes the operation to be at all
graceful, is confronted with the problem
of how to change her carefully acquired
stride into a glide. This is rather a
difficult transition, but it must be man.
aged somehow, for in skirts several yards
round, and lying two inches on the floor
IL 'front.' the athletic gait would be in
tolerabe.
So in spite of the vogue of voluminous
skirts, gored skirt, springing gracefully
at the hem. and not too wide for con-
venience is entirely correct
pretty model for general wear, and
quite "dressy" enough for more formal
wear is shown in a rich dark blue raw
silk, with a skirt of medium width
and fullness, and a chic little peplumed
coat, the costume, appliqued in blue
velvet. which is outlined in narrow
white soutache braid, and worn over a
charming white raw silk waistcoat.
Another pretty model which I have
depicted for you is the afternoon or
theatre gown CT white peau de crepe,
black and white lace being combined in
yoke and sleeve-ruff1es, and black velvet
ribbon used as finish for yoke, jabot
and girdle.

that there is no chance at present for

foot to reduce foreign postage from five
cents to two cents and the matter will
come up for discussion at the postal con-

are also in progress for the extension of
the parcels post system. Some of the
European nations are far ahead of our
