XMAS GREENS ARE SCARCE.
New York Reports Christmas Tree
Shortage

New York, Dec. 20.-Deaiers report
a shortage in the supply of Christ
mas tree and other holiday greeneiy,
and as a result nigh prices prevail
and the poorer people of the city
will be forced to do without sucl
adornments. Holly, mistletoe and
other greens are selling at more
than double the prices charged
last year.
Heavy SHOWS in the sections where
the greens flourish are responsible
for the scarcity and increased prices.
The same cause has delayed the cut
ting and shipment of Christmas
trees, and those received by the West
street dealers are not as good quail.
ty as usual, A growing movement
against the denudation of forests by
the cutting of trees for Christmas
use has also played its part in cur
failing the supply

A Manuscript 1000 Years Old.

An ancient manuscript copy OF the
Pentateuch, the first five books OF the
Old Testament. more than 1000 years
old, is on sale. A Samaritan priest
from Shechem, Palestine, is in Eng
land to see what price he can get
for It.
Unless he receives an exceptionally
good offer in England the priest has
stated his intention Of bringing the
manuscript to America. where he will
visit antiquarians in the large cities.
The copy Of the ancient Bible Is
believed by the Samaritans to have
been transcribed by Abishuma. the
great-grandson of Aaron, and to be
about $500 years old

HATS ON THE FREAK ORDER
Millinery of the Moment May Be De-

only be described as freakish, for sure

Not content with Stimulating the ap-
pearance of mushrooms, sugar loaves
and variegated birds nests. the latest
hat is the aeroplane, with large out.

The reign Of the winged hat. sober
~ and decorously adorned with wings
covering the crown and part of the
brim, Is apparently over, for the wings
must be made freakish to look smart.
so following on the aeroplane hat we
have the hat which can only be de-
scribed as a winged Mercury, with two
seductive looking wings planted at the
back Of the crown of large black hat
shaped exactly like the wings which
adorn the ankles of the famous Mer-
curry statue.
There is no accounting for taste.
for even If woman knows she does
not look well in a hat pulled down over
her eyes until half her face is hidden.
that hat she will wear because it is
the fashion.
One Of the most startling millinery
freaks seen was blue velvet toque
which can best be described as a be-
diZened sugar loaf.
The cone part of this sugar loaf
toque was of Wedgwood blue velvet.
while deep band of steel embroidered
lace formed the lower part, and hang
ing from this was tiny fringe of steel
beads which would adorn the forehead
Salomewise. The toque, it should be
added, completely covered all signs of
hair and hid the wearer's left eye en-
tirely.
Other toques Of the moment have
crowns ascending skywards. So high
and so full are these velvet crowns
rising from a band of bizarre EN-.
broidery that they give top-heavy
appearance to the unfortunate wearer.

dren are born lazy and hate taking
any exercise whatever. but without
that and plenty of fresh air no child
can develop properly.
1t behooves every mother to see
that instead of the little ones being
given something to keep them quiet.
II they incline that way. they are
given something to keep them on the
move.
Babies generally look after them

walks along streets, IL they live in
town, performance most children
hate with all their hearts. They
should go in the parks.
Cold, dull days are not enough ex-
cuse for keeping a child indoors.
Nothing should interfere with the
regular outdoor exercise but heavy
rain or snow or very much wind.
Swimming is splendid all around
exercise. and skipping, bowling hoops
and cycling along in moderation are
all good. From the age Of five little
ones may be taught few simple
exercises with dumbbells-very light
dumbbells, of course-or Swedish ex-
ercjses; but FIVE minutes in the morn
