the mistletoe with great ceremony and

enormously in English speaking coun-

Originally children hung up theil'
stockings on st. Nicholas Eve (Dec.
6th). Young women in converts all
over Europe also placed their stockings
at the door of the Abbess This was
an adoption of the custom Of young
women praying to st. Nicholas to pro-
vide them with good husbands and q
marriage dowry. According to tradition.

night, threw three purses Of gold into

the hanging up Of stockings on st.

festivities. Santa Claus reindeer are

rhe custom of making presents at
Christmas was derived from the Ro-
mans, who made gifts to one another
during the great winter festival. the
Saturnalia. The early Christians made
presents to their children on Christmas
morning under the pretense that they
had been dropped by the Christ child
In passing over the house at night.
The word Santa Claus is an Eng
lish porversion of the Netherlands
word "Sinter Klaas." meaning ST. Nicho-
las. the patron saint of children. The
word is also used to designate st. Nicho-
las Day, which in The Netherlands Is
celebrated on December eth. The real
st. Nicholas, 1t Is said, was the Bishop
OF Myra in Lycia, who died about
82e A. d. His personal history is al
most entirely unknown, but numerous
legends show him to have been a most
generous and kindly man. In some
parts Of Germany It is still custom
for some one to dress up as bishop on
St. Nicholas Eve and distribute presents
to the children. The custom, however, Is
practically obsolete, st. Nicholas hav-
ing been superseded by Santa Claus.
Why Santa Claus is always represented
as an old man no one knows. Some
writer's claim that It dates back to the
Priapus OF Virgil and Petronius. who
held in his capacious bosom all manner
of fruits and dainties. 1t is more proha-
BILE however that the jolly kindly char
aoter of Santa Claus is easier to show
as an old man with white hair and
beard and ruddy face. IN some parts
OF Germany Santa Claus Is called Pels-
nichol (Nicholas of the Furs) from the
fur cap and coat which the imperson-
ator wore and It seems to have been
the custom for many years to associate
Santa Claus with the North. 1t was
formerly the custom to have some one

foreign countries, although the chimney
myth exists there In the Netherlands
for example. Santa Claus rides white
horse. In the poem Twas the Night
before Christmas" English names are
given to six Of the eight reindeer.
The lighting of candles on the chrIsN
mas tree was undoubtedly suggestion
from the Jewish Feast of Lights, which
comes about the same time as Christ
mas. 1t is likely that the lights were
twinklins in every Jewish house in
Bethlehem and Nazareth at the very
time of the Birth Of Christ. This GUS
tom was probably merged into the
Christmas celebration OF the Christians
Other authorities claim that the candles
are survival Of the huge Yule candle
used as a sign Of the Light that came
into tho world as prophesied by John
tho Baptist. Yule. or Yuul, was the
name given by the ancient Goths and
saxons to their great festival Of the
winter solstics, or turning of the year,
and the name has survived.
The burning of the log was a very
old Yuletime custom of the Scandinav-
ians who. at the festival, kindled huge
bon fires to the God Thor. Burning the
log was practiced in Scandinavia, Eng.

An Explanation

About three years ago, one of our
citizens with whom | at that time work
ed, during talk on politics and the
evils of saloons told me that |, who did
not frequent such places, could not
know Of what took place in them. He
then related an incident which, he
claimed, took place in a certain saloon
in Spanish Fork, wherein woman was
the principal immoral and immodest
actor; also of other occurrences in an
other locality |, during the recent
campaign, repeated the story as hear
say. and added that if such things did
take place, il was high time we arose
and stamped out these and other evils.
| made no effort to ascertain the truth
or fallacy Of this report, as | perhaps
should have done before repeating it
even as hearsay, and as | am since
told that my informant denies making
the statement, |, of course, begin to
doubt its truthfulness, as he was as lik-
ely then as he is now to handle the truth
with little or no regard.
No mans name was at any time men
toned in connection with the story, nor
was any time mentioned as to when it
took place. | neither asked nor was
informed who was the proprietor of the
saloon in question, nor have at any
time implied that any person was con-
nected with or responsible for the
occurance, but that was told the story
and reDeated il as trlle

on different locations and they have al
ways given me relief. You may con
tinue to use my statement. AT one time
| suffered from complication of trou-
bles. The pain through my head was
almost unbearable at time and | had
such acute attacks of rheumatism and
lumbago that ! was unable to sleep
well. The kidney secretions We're scant
and distressing in passage and every
symptom pointed to dlsordered Kidneys
Nothing gave me relief until | com
menced taking Doan's Kidney Pills
OF course, at my age, could scarcely
expect permanent cure, but it is gra-
tifying to know of a remedy that can
be relied upon to bring relief. Doan's
Kidney Pills have never failed to help
me, and for that reason feel justified
in praising them.
