Perhaps the Homestead is right,
and it would be better if such
would be the case. There is going
to be plenty of candidates for the
several county Offices and the field
should be open to all, with nothing
more than the good of the county
to be considered in choosing from
them. But we are of the opinion
that the old cliques will be found
with separate tickets arranged,
and with so-called 'principles'' to
be contended for. The coming
campaign does not promise to be
as peaceable as the Homestead edi-
tor prophesies.

A report comes from Portland,
Oregon, that Christmas morning a
party of swimmers will cross the
Willamette river. The dispatch
SAYS that the feat will be unique
in this part of the country and it
is conceded to be an unusual ad-
vertisement of the winter climate
of the Pacific northwest. Last win

CHRISTMAS

1t is not force of habit that
once year things are decorated
with the spreading holly and
Christmas bells; it is not custom
that special services are each year
held in the different churches; it is
not for business that the stores are
yearly crowded with eager seekers
for little tokens to gladden. the
hearts of loved ones; it is not eti-
quette that brings the happy smile
and the firm grip of the hand; we
believe in Christmas, every one of
us, honestly and sincerely. 1t is a
tin g when everyone strikes SYM
pathic chord. Political opponents,
business rivals and neighborhood
grievances are forgotten and all are
engrossed for time in Christmas.
Each and every human being
feels himself part in the Christ
mas festivities. All make a special
effort to bring JOY into the family
circle to the extent that it radiates
the neighbor and then to the next
and on and on until the word of
greeting is SO gladdened that all
cares have been dashed into obliv-
ion. The soul that is not happy at
Christmas time is to be pitied.
Christmas is not a habit, a Gus
tom, a business, nor mark of
etiquette. We believe in Christmas
from the depths of our hearts.
Let us all do our share. 1t will
be to our credit.

States per year at 250,0o0. There are
probably 5,000,000 Gagged birds IN the
United States. My firm exports yearly
nearly 10000 birds from this dis
trict: the number exported by other
firms in the district of Brunswick.
Hamburg. and Bremen | estimate at
about 100000 birds. The average
Wholesale price for a male bird IS
marks (SO.T14) and females II pfen-
nigs (S0.1T). While the American de-
nland has increased, the cost price
at home has risen. and It has been
very difficult to raise the selling
price in America. In proportion to
other Injuries in the United states
canaries are cheap, as they are usual
ily bought by the poorer classes: on
this account as soon AS prices ara
raised there the demand immeditely
falls off. The financial stringency dur
ing the past year has had no appre-
ciable effect on the demand for bros
and holiday business was very good.
1t Is fortunate thing for the breeder
that the birds do not live long in
the United States. II this were not the
case, our export would soon be at an
end.
have observed that the PROPOSE
ton has been made on different oc-.
casions that the breeding of canal1es

States might he profitable, but in my
Judgement this would prove a failure.

THE READING OF BOOKS.

With such a vast subject as liter
5nture the most industrious reader can
only hope to read carefully hun
dredth part of the books which are
really worth reading The works Sc
1lected depend upon taste. inclination,
and sometimes opportunity, and many
a famous standard author may be neg

son. and does not appear to have sur

GERMAN CANARY BIRDS.

In the following report from. Han
over, Consul Robert j. Thompson
summarizes the statistics as to
canary birds, and gives the views of
a German exporter of these cong
sters:
The export of canary birds to the
United States from this district dur
ing the year 1905 amounted in value
to $130.255. against s136.354 in 1907.
1t is estimated that there are not less
than 100000 Gagged birds in the
United states. The ordinary house
canary will eat 90 pounds of seed a.
year which costs an average for each
bird of $3.50. 1t will be seen that this
luxury represents an outlay on the
part OF the American people of 81
100000 annually for feed alone. In
regard TO the German exports to the
United states. principally of Harz
mountain singers or breeders, one OF
the largest exporter of birds in Ger

of a new play, entitled "Sieur of

There are many books, even by the

difficulty of reading every famous work

and hero is might be mentioned that
James Payn was not altogether wrong
when he commended that Macaulay is
responsible for much of the nonsense

tlrors. He frightened thousands into
pretending that they knew authors
when they had but the slightest ac-
quaintance with them. That terrible
schoolboy, the marvellous boy who per-
ished in his pride in the middle of the
last century, was the innocent cause
OF much misdirscted energy and en-
