average Michigan farmer who owns

buy from 800 TO $500 worth every
year. 1t comes in five-pound balls

ed from llls to 10 cents a pound.
There are not few farmers who buy
as much as 900 pounds for their har-
vest season. Three years ago Michigan
farmers were able 10 buy their twine
in Canada at % cents pound, includ-
ing the duty, when the trust was
charging Is cents Since then the trust

Last year the Cleaners organization

THE PRESIDENTS CHRISTMAS
How the Big and Little RooseveIts
Celebrated Last Year.

Seieprateo Last year.
President and Mrs. Roosevelt had
only the immediate members Of their
family to celebrate Christmas. Just
before going to bed on Christmas eve
the children hung their stockings in
the presidents room, and bright and
early the next morning they were up
to claim their prizes. Everything that
was ever designed for a Christmas
stocking found place IN the line that
hung from the mantel, and when the
boys awakened there was a merry
scramble to see just what was inside.
After breakfast the president, Mrs.
Roosevelt and the children went TO the
library to exchange presents too big
for the stocking.
Each member of the family had a
special corner for his or her gifts, and
there were any number OF mysterious
little parcels to be opened. This very
pleasant little ceremony took the en-
tire morning.
After this the president walked to
his church, Grace Reformed, and the
rest of the family went to st. Johns
Episcopal church.
In the afternoon the president, Mrs.
Roosevelt and the children went over
to the home of Captain and Mrs. VIII
liam Sheffield Ccwles, where they al
ways spend Christmas afternoon and
where there Is always a tree for the
Roosevelt and Cowles children. They
were joined there by Representative
and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, and
little family reunion was held.
After the visit to the Cowles' the
president played tennis with his sons.
At night was given the Christmas
dinner In the private dining room.
Among the few invited guests were
Senator Lodge, DR.. Rixey and family
and Mr.. and Mrs. Longworth. The
string section of the Marine band fur
| nished the music for the evening.

about tea, and she felt better after
drinking it. Altogether she was in
quite cheerful mood when the little
daughter of her landlord came to wish
her merry Christmas and bring an
invitation from her mother to eat her
Christmas dinner with them. Dinner
would be at half past 2. Miss Acker-
mann thanked them very much and
would dine with them with pleasure.
Then she gave the little girl the pres
ent she had ready for her, stylish
young lady doll dressed In the latest
fashion, with coat and hat complete,
gift which made It's recipient radiant,
and sent her off to exhibit 1t at once.
The sermon Goods Christmas Gifts"
from the text "Wait upon the Lord,
and he shall give thee the desire Of
thy heart" made her homesick again,
the desire Of her heart seemed so ex-
ceedingly far off. Miss Ackermann
was not one of those who forget, hard
as she had tried not to remember. She
found her thought straying back ten
years to the seaside, to her old home
and Jack. Their parents were neigh
bors. Her father and mother lived in
the little fishing town and took board
ers in the season. His father was the
farmer who supplied them with vege-
tables and fruit Jack drove the wagon
which brought the daily supply to the
cottages. They would have known
each other in any case, but the morn
ing interviews over lettuce and straw
berries, melons and tomatoes brought
them closer together.
Every one approved of their engage
ment, and the day was set, when a
great misfortune happened-her moth
er and Oldest sister were killed in
buggy which they were driving by
train at railroad crossing This was
bad enough surely, but troubles hunt
In couples and the blow seemed to af-
feet her fathers mind. He became al
! most childish, took to his bed and
would have no one but her wait upon
bim. To complete the roll Of disaster
her brother suddenly brought home as
| his wife girl whom none of his
friends would have chosen, and the
old man would not let his daughter-in-
law come near him. To tell the truth,
she had no desire to help Miss Acker-
mann in her duties. She had married
for step up and said plainly that she
did not mean to slave to please any
body. -.
you see how it is. Jack" Miss Ack-
ermann said, with streaming eyes. II
cannot leave father, even for you"
Bring him to our house with you,"
replied Jack. There is plenty Of room,
and father and mother won't mind"
''No, Jack; thanks ever so much, but
that wouldn't do any good. Father

Miss
Ac[6@rnlN@laaN's
Christmas.
By Mrs. MOSES P. HANDY.

N7ISS ACKERMANN opened her
NWI eyes to the sunshine with a
OVO startled feeling of having
oversight herself, then closed
them again at the sound of the chimes
from the church around the corner,
for 1t was Christmas day, the one day,
barring Sundays, in the year which
she could really and truly call her own.
She was that overworked individual,
popular dressmaker, going out by the
day, and she sometimes wished, with
e. p. Roe's old doctor, that people
would send for somebody else some
times and let her rest On the last
Fourth of July she had been in the
country sewing for dear life In order
to finish a belated bridal trousseau,
and on Thanksgiving she had worked
until dark to accommodate a customer
who wished to outshine her sisters-in-
law at family gathering at the house
of her husbands father, but on Christ
mas day not even the most eXacting
customer could ask her services.
And yet-was she glad it was Christ
mas? The associations which cluster
around the season make it a sorrowful
one to those who have nothing left of
home excepting its memories, and, saw
ing for one brother, Miss Ackermann
was alone in the world.
Really, Miss Ackermann told herself,
she had no business to be low spirited;
she was a very fortunate person; think
how many people were starving for
lack of work, and all that, she conclud-
ed vaguely as she finished her break
fast. The tea, which she made in her
room, beating the water on small gas
stove, was excellent. She was finicky
