COMING.

Although the merry Christmastide is
still some days away,
The signs OF its proximity grow plain
er every day;
The hallboy says. Good morning"
with smile and tips his hat.
And in the pipes the janitor turns
steam to heat the fiat.
And every single day
The program runs this way;
Mothers down ON Broadway,
Buying pretty things;
Daughters on Fifth avenue,
Buying gloves or rings;
Sonny's down on Twenty-third,
His lists Of gifts TO fill;
While fathers working overtime
To pay the Christmas bill.
The man who brings your papers has a
pleasant smile for you.
The butcher acts as though you were
the best he ever knew;
The cook is sweet and cheerful and the
cops are smooth and mild;
And cen the savage subway guard is
tender as a child.
But fathers full OF woes,
Because, you see, he knows;
Mothers in the toy shop,
Buying all the day;
Daughters in the jewelers.,
And taking things away:
Sonny's buying, buying things,
AS merry as you please;
While fathers shaving as his desk
To foot the c. o DIS.

WHAT A MERE NAN DID.
History repeats itself.
There is the old story of Darby and
Joan. Husband and wife. each dissat-
isfed, exchanged their labors for a
day, with salutary effect.
In st. Louis William O'Day and
wife made a permanent exchange. Mr..
O'Day, plain and fancy cook, dry
starcher, housekeeper, ETC., did the
work in the home, while Mrs. O'Day
Jared forth as the family breadwinner.
O'Day's daily schedule, as told to the
police judge. was as follows:
4 a. m.-Arises and prepares break
fast, making biscuits and pancakes,
frying eggs, meats, etc
$50 a. m.-Wakes wife. gives her
breakfast.
7:30 a. m.-Wakes his. three sons and
after giving them breakfast sends
them to school; eats his own break
fast.
7:3o to IL a. m.-Cleans house, sweep
ing, busting, washing windows.
IL a. m.-Goes marketing, buys for
the whole day and breakfast next
morning.
II noon.-Prepares dinner for chill
dren and. selfsan puts things in, order.
1 to p. m.-Mends children's torn
stockings and clothes, makes trousers
for sons, makes pies and cakes for
evening meal.
7:30 p. m.-Finishes with supper
dishes and after reading and talking
goes to bed at 8 p. m

but mans work is never DONE"
William got the worst Of the swap.
However, there's a sequel.
William had been doing this work
for how long? Eighteen months. He
got tired. Who wouldn't get tired
man or woman?
Be it said furthermore there was a
boarder at the house, besides the home
folks.
Wen, William got SO very tired of his
tin pans and busters that one day he
got drunk and chased the boarder-a
woman-out of the house with his
butcher knife.
That was why William was in po-
lice court
He told the judge how he volun-
teered, being out of work, to become
the family housekeeper while Mrs.
O'Day assumed the wage earning po-
sition. And for year and a half he
patiently cooked, mended, did the fam
lily MISUNDERSTANDING the boarder's-
starched. ironed, swept-and finally
grew weary.
And this court fined William O'Day.
