How to Distribute Small Gifts.

One of tie prettiest suggestions for
distributing small Christmas gifts is
to have them imbedded in artificial
oranges. This may be done with muslin
or paper, and though many of the arti-
Giles will not fit the receptacles they
can be made to do so by little pad
ding with cotton or tissue paper. Or
ange colOred Grape paper makes the
most realistic oranges. They are not
only pleasing to the children as novel
ties, but add greatly to the appearance
of the tree itself. They should be sus
pended from the tree by orange satin
ribbon or by braided lengths of Grape
paper, which is more effective to carry
out the idea. When nesting among the
dark green boughs of the tree they look
exceedingly pretty and suggestive.

ROYAL ROWS OVER CHESS.
Stories of AIonarchs Who Became In
furiatcd When Defeated.

furiatcd When Defeated.
If, as is reported in the papers,
King Edward is developing an en-
thusasm for chess, he is only fol-
lowing in the steps of many of his
predecessors on the throne, includ-
ing his namesake, the first Edward,
who was almost as heen a fighter
with castles and pawns as with his
knights and squires at his back on
the Scottish border.
William the COnQueror more than
once lost his temper over the game,
and on at least one occasion with Sc
rious consequences. He was play
Ing with the son of the King of
France when a dispute led to hot
words, and eliminated in William
bringing down the board so heavily
on his opponents head as to make
him unconscious. Within an hour
Williams horse put score of miles
between his rider and the French
court
In one case at least chess estranged
a husband and wife and cost the hus-
band dearly. Ferrand, Count of
Flanders, was in the habit of play
ing with his countess, and was I'M
gallant enough TO win almost every
game. This constant and almost in
eYitable defeat so disturbed tile lady
that in time she conceived a positive
hatred of her yictor-to such an eX-
tent that when he was taken priso-
ner at the battle of Bouvines she re-
fused point blank TO take any steps
to procure his release.
Louis XIII. of France was so in
fatuated with the game that where
ever he went he was accompanied by
his chess board and men, and invar-
iably played it in his coach when he
took his drives abroad. Charles l.
found it so fascinating that he al
most literally played it to the foot of
the scaffold, and when once his game
was interrupted by news that the
Scots had decided to sell him to the
parliament he proceeded with his
move as unrufFled as if, instead of
hearing his doom, he had received a
summons to dinner And when John
Frederick, elector Of SaXOny, heard
over the chess board the news that
he had been condemned to death, he
completed his move and was again
in the game before the messenger
had time to withdraw.

How to Prepare Pretty Dessert.

How to Prepare n Pretty Dessert.
a very pretty dessert for the Christ
mas dinner is made as follows: Choose
a number of smooth, fair skinned or
anges and cut a piece the size of a
cent from the stem end; with a small
wooden mustard spoon extract all the
pulp, being very careful not to pune
ture the skin or make a hole in the OPP
posite end. Throw the skins in water
to extract any bitter flavor while you
make several kinds of gelatin and fla
voring with pineapple, lemon, orange or
banana. Stand the shells on small cups
to keep them upright and fill with the
jelly. which must be cooled, but not
stiff; set away overnight. The next
day cut them in halves, using a very
sharp knife, and arrange on pretty
dish, decorate with orange leaves, smi-
lax or flowers. They make a very
handsome centerniece.
