Christmas Pies.

trace their lineage far beyond the Nor

Saxon kings and Danish freebooters.

makes mention of the "wains' Tor wag-

under Il load OF these pies and adds.
AT such times the hostess of a we'll
freQuented inn of the old school will
construct Il pie Of the circumference
rivaling her own. and the county news
paper will record its dimensions"
One such "hosteSs of the old school,
is immortalized by Il famous though
slightly profane epitaph in a Yorkshire
churchyard running as follows:
Here lies the body Of Mary Ann Shoven.
She was versed In the arts
or cakes. pies and tarts
And the mystical rites OF the oven.
When she'd lived long enough
She made her last puff
A puff by her husband much praised.
Now here she doth lie
And make Il mud pie
In the hope that her crust may b
raised.

LAND AS AN INVESTMENT.

In these days 1 when ordinary

turning tosthat basic source of wealth,

looked to land for.his prosperity, and
today, as in the time of II fathers,
we'll selected realty offers the most
satisfactory reward to the careful in.
weston. Except under extraordinary
conditions land may perhaps no,
offer the quick returns promised by
the stock market, but the man without
vast capital with which to protect his
interests will find safer, surer divi.
dends from land than any other form
of investment.
Miss MarytG. Pinkney, who died re-
Gently anew York at the age of so
years, often advised her friends to
buy land. She had found that course
profitable, for, through her own
operations in reality, she became one
Of the most wealthy women of the
world.
Few persons have the opportunity
or the means to follow the example
est by Miss Pinkney of New York, but
the average American can, if he so
desires, entertain the ambition to be-
come q property owner. Whether he
buys in q city or in the country, il he
has used, Judgment in his selection,
