New Years parties, attended by young people,

to concoct resolution games for parties of that
sort and in some of the contests the loser Is COM

She playfully told him that he must keep his

their marriage, his taste for spirits was declared

to mouth" We only guess 1T what the next
year will bring.
For William Jennings Bryan 1909 means more
lectures at much per night For William How
ard Taft 1909 is year of glad rejoicing, for on
March he assumes the presidential chair vacated
by Theodore Roosevelt. Four years ago when an
attempt made to relegate Mr. Taft to the
bench of the supreme court of the United States
he little suspected that he material to fill the
chair at the head of the nation.
Joy is mingled with sadness in President Roose

while he lifts the of the presidential Office
from his head and applies his strenuosity tests
upon the habitues of the East African jungle he
has shot his bolt as far as the q. S. A. is con-
cerned there being nothing left to conquer.
But for the commonplace citizen of these United
States 1909 carries only conjecture rule.
Lots of men and women start the year planning
to carry out some cherished ideas, whether they
will succeed being a matter that only Father
Time himself solve.
There approximately S3000,000 souls in this
country. OF that number statistics say 100000
have drawn up sets of resolutions which IL carried

Strenia, the goddess of strength.
These were presented to the king as
an omen of good fortune. The gifts
became more pretentious as time went
on, and in later centuries some of the
Roman emperors demanded New Years
presents of great value from the
"magnates" of those days. AS the
Roman rulers were gentlemen who
were not to be trifled with, the pres
ents usually appeared on time after
notice to the wealthy was given.
1t was In Rome, too, that the habit
of masquerading at New Years ap-
pears to have originated. The custom
still observed in Italy now is confined
to the celebrations at the Epiphany
and at the carnival time.
FESTIVITIES OF THE DAY
In some countries, notably in Great
Britain and in some cities in Canada
and the United States, the new Year Is
welcomed In by festivities on the eve
of the day In Scotland, for instance,
1t Is customary to celebrate New
Years eve with some festivity, which
is prolonged until past midnight. At
the stroke of IL every one present
wishes each other a Happy New
Year" The custom Is also common
in many parts of Germany, where the
salutation is "Prosit Neu Jehr."
Similar to this custom are the re.
ligious watch meetings" held in soma
of the churches in this country on
New Years eve. In England on New
Years eve, in some houses. curious
custom, or superstition, is observed.
At the stroke of IL, which ushers in
the new year, the party, already wait
ing on the stairs, begin to ascend the
stairway backward, taking a step at
each stroke. Every step successfully
mounted means happy month, every
stumble a reverse. OF course, it is
one of those playful superstitions
which are not taken seriously.
