Mrs. Jobson's Tact
A CHRISTMAS STORY

While making her Christmas-shop-
ping rounds the other day, Mrs. Jobson
espied. in furrier's window, squirrel
coat which she instantly concluded was
just about right
THAT" said Mrs. Jobson to herself,
amiably, but determinedly squaring her
chin, will be my Christmas present from
Mr. Jobson."
Whereupon she entered the furrier's
establishment and tried on the squirrel
coat. 1t fitted her perfectly.
You may consider the coat sold," said
Mrs. Jobson to the furrier. But place
it back in the window. shall want my
husband to see it there. BY the way, 1
wish you would drape it on a window
model with dark hair instead of on that
blond model-my hair is dark, you
know" and the furrier perfectly entered
into the meaning OF her smile and smiled
back. II shall pay you $40 on the coat
now to bind the bargain. When my hus-
band pays you the full price of the coat
which he will, within few days-why
l shall have you return the $40 to me-"
"Oh, understand, thoroughly,
madam" said the furrier, with another
shreWd smile.
That evening, at the dinner table, Mrs.
Jobson, by imperceptible stages, led the
talk around to the subject of Christmas.
and Mr.. Jobson looked surprised, and
then thoughtfu when she had impressed
upon him the nearness of the great fes-
tival
Had no idea that Christmas was right
on top of me again." said Mr. Jobsor.

seem to come around in punches, all

The Mistletoe.

Few connect the mistletoe with tho
wild beliefs of our Morse ancestors,
but it plays conspicuous part in
Scandinavian mythology and the Gus
tom of hanging branches of this plant
is common among all Morse nations.
The legends say that Baldur was slain
by a mistletoe dart at the instigation
of Loki; and in reparation for this
injury the plant is dedicated to his
mother Frigg, SO long as it does not
touch the earth which is Loki's king
DOM That the plant was held in VEN
Grafton by the pagans is inferred from
a passage in Virgil. The Druids al
ways collected it at, the winter solstice
and cut it with a golden sickle from
their favorite oaks. The oaks with
mistletoe upon them were always
sacred to these Drulds and marvellous
were the powers ascribed to the plant

WHEN GRANDMA WAS LITTLE.

''When grandma was little girl" she said,
with look so wise,
And with thoughtful twinkle in her violet
blue eyes,
"She used to wear long dresses, and long
pantalets SO queer,
All starched till they could stand alone
was funny, O my dear
But that was great long time, you know,
SO long, long, long ago.
"She used to sit as stiff in church. and still
as any mouse
<And grandma says they called the churches
then the Good Lords House).
She couldn't see the minister, the pew
backs were SO high;
She couldn't go to sleep or cape, and didn't
dare to cry.
But that great long time, you know,
So long, long, long ago.
She couldn't run, and romp, and scream,
and jump, like me. CT you,
Nor chatter at the table, as we always like
to do
She made low courtesies, like this, and had
such funny ways.
For Children must be seen, not heard, they
taught her in those days.
But that was great long time, you know,
So long, long, long ago.
1.-THE grown folks we're so horrid in that
Old time, don't you think,
To treat a little grandma SO she hardly
dared to wink?
So now we must be kind to her, and try all
sorts of ways
To make her happy, and forget those awful
still old days.
For that was great long time, you know,
So long. long. long ago.

ID. ACk to the Old farm home rush
ID children and grandchildren for
the Christmas time Truly it is
the merriest season of all the year,
when brothers and sisters and cousins
gather at grandma:s for the holidays
They come from city and village and
country, and grandfather meets the
trains and takes each party as it ar
rlves out to the farm in the great bob
Sled, behind his best team, and that is
the first pleasure Of the Christmas
outing. or, rather, the second, as the
anticipation has been the first.
The cousins, many of them, are
strangers, or practically so, to each
other. and to make the family party a
success they must be entertained in d
way that will get them thoroughly &C.
Qualnted, and grandmother and grand
father. as hostess and host, must pro-
vide entertainment of a sort that will
accomplish this. At the same time the
entertainment must recall the old
home days to the elders, so what is
more appropriate than the old farm
games that are ever new. There must
be some hing for every minute of the
waking hours to prevent the forma-
ton OF cliques that would breed antag-
onisms among the various sets of cou-
sins, and there must be enough of
variety to keep all interested.
Grandfather takes hold of the ar
ran9ements for the outdoor games.
Above all things, there must be a
hitching party, for the children from
the city know none of its pleasures
Again the big bob-sled comes into
play, and into its comm odious box are
tucked all the wee mites of the party,
with an abundance of hay and warm
comforters. Behind the big sled ara
hitched several small hand sleds,~ ths
smallest one Of all being at the ex-
treme end of the line, and onto these
crowd the boys and girls, and often
times some Of their parents, who have
not forgotten the joys of such a frolic,
Then away they 60, up hill and down,
over all sorts of roads and around
sharp corners. And at the sharp cor
ners is where the greatest fun comes

each boy should be released in a room,
in the barn. and the boys be given
each a designated pig to catch. It
may be hard on the pigs, but it will ba
great sport for the boys and the audi
ence.
Christmas night in the house is the
gayest time of all the holiday season,
Grandmother has prepared for it. and
the last trace of embarrassment has
worn away from the shyest of the
youngsters. Bob apple" is a good be-
ginning for the evening Place a. num-
Der of apples in bowl OF water and
let each have try at catching one of
them by the stem with their teeth.
Wet faces and soiled dresses will be
fully compensated for in the amour,
of fun that is had. Later, hunt
through grandomther's garnet will
provide the necessaries for Christmas
mummers, in which old Father Christ
mas leads the jewellers, composed of
such characters as Dame Plum Pud-
ding, Sir Loin of Beef, Miss Pumpkin
Pie, etc. Charades and shadow shows
follow in rapid succession, and then,
as climax, comes Virginia reel. in
which old and young participate Then
the singing of Christmas carol, and
the happy guests are off to bed and
pleasant dreams.
When grandfather's big sled carries
them back to the trains that are to dis
tribute them to their far-away homes
they will vote this the merriest
Christmas of all they have had, AMI!
grandfather and grandmother will
wish that Christmas might last
throughout all the year.

IN, for, with the horses going at a good
gallop, the small sled at the end of the
string is almost sure to upset and spill
its occupants into the drifts beside the
road. To be sure, all will want the
honor and excitement Of riding on that
last sled, and to avoid controversy
grandfather must have arranged a
schedule SO as to give each one a
chance at it, and must try to be i'm
partial in the splitting of them into the
snow drifts.
Another amusement that grandfath-
er can take charge of might be called
a fox hunt, only there is no fox, and
the trail must be marked by bits Of pa
per scattered along. If the snow is
deep it is not practical to make the
trail too long, or into the deep drifts.
but should follow marked paths, but
when the snow is not deep it may go
anywhere about the farm. The hunt
ers must follow the trail by the bits OF
scattered paper, and at the goal there
should be a little prize for the winner,
though not one of sufficient value to
make the less fortunate ones feel badly
at not having won.
Of course grandfather and grand
mother will have little presents for all
the children, and it adds to the interest
to have a Christmas tree for them, but
not one of the ordinary sort that is
set up in the parlor. Instead, if the
weather is not too severe, it should BE-
out of doors, and any orchard or shade
tree that is not too high may serve as
the regulation evergreen. II night is
chosen as the time for the Christmas
tree festivities, few lanterns may
serve the purpose OF candles, and the
children should climb the ladder in
search of their own presents. OF
course the boys, as the better climbers,
should be made to climb the higher
limbs for their presents.
For grandmother's part, inside the
house there are many games in which
oil can engage. The games should be
simple, so that they may be readily
understood. The old-fashioned coun-
try games are by far the best for such
an occasion.
Blindman's buff needs no explana-
ton, and is a jolly way In which to
pass an hours time, but cannot be
continued too long, or the children
will tire of it. Another game that IL
less noisy is blindman's wand. In
which the parties playing form circle
about the one who is blindfolded. The
blindfolded one has a cane or small
stick, and after the others have circled
about him to the accompaniment OF
any well known song, he points his
wand at one in the circle and initiates
the noise made by some animal. The
one pointed to must repeat the noise,
Disgusting his voice SO that he may
not be known. Three times may the
test be repeated, initiating different
animal each time. Il at the end Of tho
three tests the blindfolded one IS still
undecided as TO who he Is pointing to.

he may run his wand over him and
find out in that way, if possible If he
guesses who it is places are exchanged
and the game begins over again.
CHI istmas candles sound Christ
masy, and will be remembered by the
elders as one Of the pleasures of long
ago. A lighted candle is placed upon
small table, when one person i:
blindfolded and stationed with his
back to the candle, and close to it. H,
is then to take four steps forward,
turn around three times and return
and blow out the candle. Simple as
the game is, it will afford amusemen:
for an hour on Christmas eve.
If grandfather wishes to provide
something especially for the boys, and
has big barn, he can get up a series
OF races, at which the girls will be in
terested spectators. A threelegged race.
in which the legs of two contestants
are tied together, will be exceedingly
funny especially to the onlookers.
Another is a sack race, in which the
contestants are encased from the wais!
down, or, if the sacks are long enough,
from the neck down. Thus prepared.
they are given certain distance to 60.
and are prepared to cover the distance
in any way they can quickest, as, for
example, jumping or rolling. A potato
race. or an egg race, is yet anothe:
game which will furnish great amuse-
ment. In these there is laid out on the
barn floor row Of potatoes or eggs
for each contestant, and these must be
carried one at time and deposited in
basket or box. In case of eggs being
used the breaking of one of them loses
the race. The boys will also enjoy a
pig race. For the purpose a pig for
