(hrIstmns MasCOta.

The mistietOe is Il potent Christmas
mascot. 1t is the best luck bringar,
says Home notes. The hostess who gives
her guests a spgig OF mistletoe is doing
what of Old the priestly Druids did
when they gave the Worshipers Of the
Supreme Being, typitied under the form
Of an oak, Il portion of the parasitic
plant to keep religiouSly as long as it
lasted. The mistletoe sprig gave pow
er to perceive witches and evil work
ers. 1t insured prosperity to its own
er. To those the DruidS diSliked or to
whom they wished no veal they gave
no mistletoe, only to true Worshipers
and the bringerS of presents to lay I'M
der the oak. No one could poison the
holder of the lucky Druid given mistle-
toe, which could discover poisons, how
ever cunningiy administered, and save
its owner from their power. To child
less folk the mistletoe brought off
spring and to weakly ones health. 1t
was the al heal' plant symbol of
health, wealth and prosperity. These
attributes are forgotten today, when
the luck Of the lnistletoe is only remem-
berel by lovers. IoStesses of today
are, for Il new thing, reyiving the Old
time fancies. The conceit brings pleas
ure, gives amusement and does no
harm.
The very holly berries may form a
curious mascot if used in one way. A
crown or wreath must be made of them
in imitation of the sacred crown of
thorns. Berries red as blood must be
on this crown in plenty, and the wearer
must go alone at midnight to sit in the
church in the DARK. Second sight will
be given to the wearer of that crown
and vision bestowed of weird things,
for into the church will walk that
Christmas midnight all of her friends
who shall die in the coming year. Fore
knowledge is given. And the holly
crown worn on the eve of Christmas
will give vision of spirit forms coming
in the air to sing their noel songs. The
beasts will be seen by the holly wear
err to lie down in worship. The crown
preserved for year will give safety
from violence.

CHRISTMAS DAY.
How to Make 1t an UnaIIoyed Pleas
ure to All.

Many women spend months making
dainty and useful gifts for friends and
family for Christmas, so that they fair
~ wear themselves out before the day
arrives, and this is added to the ineyi-
tlble shopping, which is terve destroy
ing and body wearing, leaving them al
most in state of collapse from the
reaction on Christmas day.
The habit of giving Christmas pres
Gl.s to all ones acquaintances is an
evil one, and it grows more insistent
NanI difficult to bear with every sue
cCoLiLg ya4 1t is to be hoped that
common spuse in this respect will
again hJ,' ay, for the giving of gifts
to any one outside ones immediate
family rs wrong ana a tax and strain
upon strength and purse that should
not be. And there is always the haunt
ing fear that the recipient will cOnsid-
er the gift which took SO many long
hours of toll, small and mean. Such
gift is worth more than pearls or ru-
bes, and to make every one happy
it should be appreciated ut its real
worth, counting the hours of loving Ia
Dor it cost. TO make Christmas a
season of unaIloyed joy needs much
less than one thinks until tried. A
good wholesome dinner with all the
family together, tree afterward, then
games and perhaps dance, is the best
way of all And few besides the fam
lily should be invited if one really
wants to be happy ana free, to be as
happy as you want to. Let every per
son in the family rise in the morning
determined to do all he or she can to
make others happy. Let nothing mar
the pleasure of any one. That is the
true Christmas spirit.
At the dinner table let there be places
for the children. No refinement of cru
city could Ice greater than for children
to see their elders at table while they
wait The dinner should be such that
children could partake Of it without
danger. 1t + to help fix in their minds
the real significance of the day. II
that means Peace on earth do not
make the child unhappy by scolding
for small faults. Shut your eyes for
once and relax little if you wish
Christmas to he a day of such delight
as will be remembered forever Be
loving, be lenient. be all that you wish.
but save your strength for your OWL
family.

How to Make Chestnut Filling.


The most approved chestnut filing
for the Christmas turkey is made of
the boiled or roasted nuts, mashed, sea-
soned with butter, salt and pepper, but
those who are willing to tax digestion
for the sake of variety may try the fol-
lowing: Roast thirty large chestnuts,
removing the shells and inner brown
skin; take about ten of the chestnuts
and pound to a paste with the cooked
turkey liver; season to taste with pep
per and salt; add few drops of onion
juice and teaspoonful Of minced pars-
ley; bind together with the yolks of
two eggs; fill this into the cavity at
the neck and sew up. For the body
stuffing take five or six links of tiny
smoked sausage and cut into small
pieces; mix with a cup of fine bread
crumbs, pepper, salt, two ounces of
melted butter and the remainder of the
chestnuts, using them whole

Thousands Of grateful people are tell

Yet other thousands are suffering every

Sincere, honest testimony like the fol-

Fortleih Wedding Anniversary Celebrated

An occasion long to be remembered
was the ombination vetera ans camp
fire and fortieth wedding anniversary
of T. J. Newton and wife, which
occurred in Newton Hall. Albany,
on the evening of Nov. % The cele-
bration of the anniversary being a
surprise to Comrade and Mrs. New
ton. A large number were present
Everything was at its best, good
cheer was in abundance and very
interesting program was arranged.
The hand was in attendance and as
one remarked they outdid themselves.
The G. A. R., boys favored the audi.
ence with five minute speeches. Miss
Lucy Martin read historical ac-
count of the battle of Cedar Creek.
Miss May Wheeler of Irasburg rem
dered whistling selections which were
much enjoyed by ali. Rev. Howard
gave an excellent talk to the old
soldiers. The browning feature of the
evening was the presentation of a
genuine gold headed ebony cane to
Mr.. Newton from the members of the
Post, j. D. Kelley making the pres,
entation speech. There were several
gifts from distant relatives in the
form of silver, lace, statuary, china
and rugs. One present particularly
worthy of mention was a silver table
spoon from Mr.. Newton's brothers
wife, they having just celebrated
their sixty-tifth wedding anniver-
sary at Worcester, Mass, T. j. New
ton being present. The spoon was
made from silver coins which she
collected during the civil war. Rev.
Ellington presented each article
separately in bis pleasant and at
tractive manner, makingan amusing
and interesting program in itself.
He congratulated the bride and
groom OF forty years that they con-
tinued to breast the waves of time,
through sunshine or shadow pros
perity or adversely, they yet walked
hand in hand, their love and care
never falteriDg one for the other.
Forty years ago a friend remarked
to the bride, am afraid Jefferson
will be blind some day, and che braveIy
replied, he will need me all the more.
And thus it proved as time passed
on he gradually lost his sight until
he became totally blind. Trusting
that God doeth all things well they
believed their cloud had q silver lin
ing, and now in their declining years,
in their very pleasant home, with the
help and comfort of their daughter, !
Clara, life is to them unalloyed pleas |
IRE. An oyster supper was served |
and the tables groaned under their
bHrden of good thing and for this, |
many thanks are due the ladies of the |
W. r. c. Rev. Ellington in behalf of
the company wished Mr.. and Mrs.
Newton many happy returns of the
day, even to the diamond wedding
and that they might all be able to be
present. The guests departed at a
reasonable hour leaving an essence
OF happiness which will long be re-
membered by the recipients. |

Hawaii. This is the most important

to conserve the interests of this coun-

Importance of this need. Hawaii is too

The Panama Canal.
~; 10, 4,
mainly preparatory, has been in prog
ress for less than a year and a half.
During that period two points about
the canal have ceased to be open to
debate. First, the question of route;
second, the question of feasibility. The
point which remains unsettled is wheth-
er the canal shall be one of several
locks above sea level or at sea level
with a single tide lock. On this point
hope to lay before the congress at an
early day the findings of the advisory
board of American and European en-
gineers.
In addition to sanitatng the isthmus,
satisfactory quarters are being provid-
ed for employees and an adequate sys-
tenn of supplying them with wholesome
food at reasonable prices has been Gre
ated. Hospitals have been established
and equipped that are without superb
Ors of their kind anywhere. During
the past year Il large portion of the
plant with which the work is to be
done has been ordered. 1t is confident
ly believed that by the middle of the
approaching year Il sufficient proper
ton of this plant will have been in
stalled to enable us to resume the work
of excavation on large scale.
What is needed now and without de-
lay is an appropriation by the congress
to meet the current and accruing eX-
penses of the commission The first
appropriation of $1000OO0O out of the
$135, 100000 authorized by the Spooner
act was made three years ago 1t is
nearly exhausted. Unless the congress
shall appropriate before that time all
work must cease.
lin conclusion the president recon-
mends an increase in the diplomatic
and consular service and more adj
equate compensation of it's members.
