But the face OF Love was a pinched,
wan little face, and her eyes so large
and lustrous, | could not look into
them without a feeling almost Of
dread Her tiny hands were thin and
the blue veins could be traced under
the white skin And then there was
something about her face, vague dis
tant, unfathomable, that told OF suf
fering and deepseated sorrow.
During all that entertainment |

LOOKS LIKE TAFT
FOR PRESIDENT

stainless like the present Sherman
and mot Bryan would succeed to
the office. His bill is drawn on
lines similar to legislation pro
posed for many years by Senator
Hoaf and Senator Frye. Twice
such an act has passed the senate
but in both instances it was pigeon
holed in the house, whose members
claimed that the subject was re
mote and academic.
Somebody has raised the ques.
ton as to how Judge Taft will ever
know he has been elected. There
have been committees and delega.
tons to wait on him announcing
his noWination by the party con-
vention, and he has official inform.
alton in plenty on this line. But
there is no provision IN the law nor
any custom providing for any com
mittee Of notification to convey to
the successful candidate the knowl-
edge that he has been chosen by
the presidential electors.
The answer is that the canvass
of the electoral vote is made by
congress and that the doings of
congress are supposed to be mat
tiers of public knowledge. Taft and
Sherman may read of their election
from the Congressional Record at
breakfast.

This holiday Is known as Cha
nuka, or the Feast of Lights. the
Feast of the Maccabees, or the
Feast of Dedication. The first day
OF the festival dates from the 25th
day of the Hebrew month of
Kislev.
Chanukah is the anniversary Of
one of the most remarkable victor
ies ever achieved by an army. The
holiday was instituted f65 years be-
fore the Christian era, following
the victory of Judas Maccabebus
and his brothers overasthe Syrian
army. The story of the Judean
and Syrian war is both legendary
and historical. Judas Maccabebus
was the son of the high priest
Mattathias, and after his fathers
death took command of the Jewish
forces against the Syrians. Judas
won a number of remarkable vic
tories. Antiochus, with force OF
10000 infantry and 1000 cavalry of
Syrians. marched against Judsa,
who commanded a poorly equipped
army of 5000. The Jewish forces
assembled at Mizpah In prayer, and
at the battle of Beth-horon de-
feated the magnificent army of
Antiochus, killing 5000 and driving
the rest out OF the country.
Antiochus was so positive of vic
tory that he induced number of
slave traders to follow his army
80 that the captive Jews could i'm
mediately be sold in slavery Fol-
lowing a subsequent battle Judas
and his army entered Jerusalem,
and exactly there years following
the pollution of the altar of the
temple by Antiochus, Judas puri-
He'd the rededicated the sanctuary
and destroyed the pagan altar.
The legendary part of this his
toric event is the discovery by the
priests OF one small cruise of oil
unpolluted, which, miracuously
lasted eight days. or until new
supply could be obtained: hence

period of eight days.
Originally these tapers were lit
near the door leading into the
street, SO passersby could see
them. At present they are ex-

Work of any kind cannot be per-

SO various games have been de-
vised with which to amuse the chill
dren, a unique top, known as a
"trendel," being the most popular.
Those who ignite the tapers and
