a New Jersey reader of these notes
calls the writer's attention to a mis-
statement which appeared in this de
partment short time ago to the eff
feet that the present season was the
first in a score or more Of years when
Irish potatoes in large quantities had
been shipped to north central states.
The statement made was based on an
observation covering a period of more
than twenty-five years, but should
have been qualified by the phrase ito
the small towns" OF the section men
toned. Our correspondent states that
OF the more than 5000 carloads OF
Irish potatoes shipped from southern
New Jersey more than half went west
chiefly to Chicago. though Minneapo

quantities.

Why We Hang Up Stockings.

The custom of hanging up the stock
ing on Christmas eve arose from an
incident in the life of the good st.
Nicholas. One day. when he WAS over
taken by severe storm, he took ref
uge in convent. and the next day
being Christmas he preached a sermon
to the nuns which they liked so much
that they asked lin to come the next
year and preach to them again.
On his second visit. which was also
on a Christmas eve, before going to
bed he asked each of the nuns to lend
him stocking, and he filed the stock
ings with sugar plums in return for
their hospitality.
In the making of mince pies--which
form part of regular Christmas
feast-mutton was the only meat for
merly used. as commemoration of
the focks that were watched on the
holy night by the shepherds of Bethle-
hem. The spices were supposed to be
suggestive of the wise men from the
east-the land of spices.

The Christmas Star.

A little star. ell undismayed.
Stepped down the dusky ways of night.
White footed, smiling. unafraid,
1t passed the orbs of greater light.
1t held its slender taper high.
The tiny splendors piercing far.
1t knew its time to shine was nigh.
For 10. 1t was the Christmas star!
A little child knelt' in the dark,
With clear eyes raised and lifted face.
She saw the tiny travelling spark
Move on from its appointed place.
The tears welled so she scarce could see.
Its orb of brightness grew bar.
Mother" she cried, "it comes to mel
ut kissed my eyes. the Christmas starr
God knows that both these things are
one
The star that shines, the eye that sees.
The answer to the prayer is shown
Unto the sinner on his knees.
On the long lanes OF spllntered light
Descends the shining avatar,
But only tears of pure delight
Could bring the holy Christmas star

Christmas Long Ago.

Come sing hale heigh-ho

When the old log cabin homed us
From the night of binding snow.
And the rarest Joy held reign,
And the chimney roared amain.
With the freight like beacon
Through the frosty windowpane.
All. the revel and the din
From without and from within,
The blend OF distant sieighbeils
with the blinking Violin.
The mufiied shrieks and cries,
Then the glowing cheeks and eyes,
The driving storms OF greetings.
Gusts OF kisses and surprise!
Sing in again the mirth -.
OF the circle round the hearth.
with the rustic Sindbad telling US
The strangest things on earth.
And the minstrel bard we knew.
With his "Love-i-er so true"
Likewise his young House-k'yarpenter'
And Loved Henry" tool
And. forgetting neer q thing,
Lift q gladder voice and sing
OF the dancers in the kitchen
Clean from start to pigeon wing"
Sing the glory and the glee
And the Joy and jubilee.
Tho twirling form. the quickened breath,
The sigh of ecstasy.
But eyes that smile alone
Back into our happy own.
The leaping pulse. the laughing blood.
Tho trembling undertone!
Ho, pair us or once more,
With our feet upon tho floor,
But our heads and hearts in heaven,
Az they were In days of yorei
