CHRISTMAS SUGGESTION. A Belfast
woman some time since talked into the recor-
der of an Edison photograph and sent the rec
ord, which turned out to be very clear and
satisfactory one, to an aunt in the far west
whom she had never seen. She was much
gratifed later to receive a letter saying,
whenever get lonely or blue sit down and
listen to your voice and soon feel cheerful
again." Why isn't this timely suggestion
for Christmas gift to some distant friend.
A BUTTER AND MEAL TRANSACTION. sub
urban resident has been puzzled. Reading in
The Journal that three dozen eggs bought
bag of meal, she resolved to find out how much
meal three pounds of butter would buy. The
result was that triumphant boy brought back
from town paper bag of nice granulated meal
and the pig squealed on. The graduated
meal was returned, and another triumphant
boy brought home another paper bag of granu
lated meal, the only difference visible to the
naked eye being that the second bag contained
about half the quantity of graduated meal
that was returned in the first bag And oh
those pig squeals! No squeals on the Chenery
farm ever compared with them. All that the
suburban resident wants now for her butter is
money-money with which to buy some good,
honest, old-fashioned Indian meal that will
subdue those pig squeals. Eggs may have
"rz," and likewise butter-and meal may have
fallen as per last weeks journal. She just
wants the meal.
