GIVING NEW YEARS GIFTS.
Al France Buys Itself Poor In Be-
atoMino Preaenta

The custom of making New Years
gifts has gone completely out Of vogue
among the people Of the United States,
with the exception perhaps of the very
wealthy, who can afford to give OF all
occasions.
In France New Years day, or lie
Jour differences literally, day OF gifts,
is the greatest day of the whole year.
All France buys itself poor. The men
are supposed to give bonbons and dow-
ers to every lady upon whom they
call. and Jan. ? finds women sick from
eating sweetmeats and men sick from
spending more than they could we'll
afford, but the average Frenchman be-
heves in the old observation that 1t is
AL In n lifetime" or, according TO
our vernacular, that Christmas (New
Year In France) comes but once a

When pins were first invented and
