& Why I Believe in Santa Claus Z

I "Twas the night before Christmas,
And all through the house
Not q creature was stirring,
Not even q mouse"
And again
"He had a red nose
And a little round belly
That shook when he laughed
Like a bowlful of jelly"
II these words portray not the truth,
then indeed am deceived.
HUGH e. CURTIS.
REAL HAPPINESS.
Any move or any ideal that looks to
the making of children happy at
Christmas time is a worthy one. True
happiness is in making others happy
and there is no happiness so real as in
seeing the innocent happiness Of chill
dren. H. H. HULL.
EMBODIMENT OF CHRISTMAS SPIRIT
l believe in the embodiment of the
Christmas spirit of good cheer, kind
ness, and thoughtfulness for others,
as personified in the jolly old Santa
Claus
It is difficult for a child to grasp an
idea in the abstract, therefore let his
little world be peopled with Santa
Claus" Jack Frost" "the Sandman
and others from the realm of fancy.
AS he grows older, instead of losing
the idea of Santa Claus. let him EN-.
body the spirit of the dear old man,
and make it a part of himself to
manifest in deeds later in life.
Long live Santa Claus, and all he
represents!

door few open, and there, stood Santa
Claus, carrying a large basket, the
other arm full of bundles, and accom-
panied by a beautiful young LADY, who
also had her arms full Of bundles. The
children recovering from their great
surprise, looked on in amazement, as
all sorts of presents, toys Of every de-
ecription, books, warm mittens, stock.
ings and caps, as we'll as bags contain
ing all sorts of good things, oranges,
apples, candy, nuts, and cakes, were
distributed, until every one was well
supplied, and Oh! wonder Of won
ders! Dorothy found herself hugging
large beautiful doll! Santa and his
companion disappeared as suddenly as
they had appeared and after they were
gone q large basket was opened,
which contained everything imaginable
necessary for good Christmas dinner.
The next day a lady who dropped
in to see the family, was greeted by
happy faced children, eager to show
their presents and Dorothy with shin
ing eyes cried, ooh! Santa Claus
canned to see US last night, and he
bringed me this dollie." And Mrs
Santa Claus coined too, and she Civ
ed me this cried little Carl, joyfully
banging away on his drum.
The mother, with tears in her eyes
tried to tell of what Santa's visit meant
to them, of the good dinner they en-
!oyed, which was the first for a long
long time, and there in the damp
dark basement came joy and happi
ness, because Santa Claus had found
| them. DINA RAMSER.

and when I arose that Christmas morn

1t was, but the filing was ashes and

PERPETUATES CHILD'S LIFE
1 believe in the Santa Claus legend,
because it serves to perpetuate in the
life of the child an interesting romance
which is harmless in itself and is a
means of keeping alive the memories
and customs of the Christmas festival.
II 1t can be called delusion, it is one
OF those cherished delusions of life of
which we never wish to be disillusion-
ed. 1t appeals to the child-heart as
nothing else in the round of the years
experiences ever does. 1t calls up as
sociations which are precious to every
child and which tend to keep alive the
gift idea and cultivate the feeling OF
generosity.
1t has world of meaning to the
child which we cannot afford to neg
lect. 1t helps all of us, at least once g
year, to be like children and to sympa
thize with the innocent pleasures and
enjoyments of childhood.
1t strengthens the sweet bonds Of
home life, it makes sacred the mem
cries and customs of the nursery ant
the freside, it connects the silent, hol,
night of yule-tide with things spiritua
and unseen in the wondering heart O
childhood. e. F. BARTHOLOMEW.
BECAUSE HE IS SO REAL.
Why do I believe in Santa Claus
Because he is 80 real The thought o.
his coming brings such joy to the chill

HIGHER PRICED COTTON.
London Thinks That the Limit Has
Not Been Reached.

The following enlightening article
on the worlds cotton situation Is fur
nished to Daily Consular and Trade
Reports by United States Consul Gen
eral John l.. Griffiths. London:
Since the financial depression in
the United States I'm 1907 up to the
present time the cotton situation. as
realized i'm Great Britain, has been
one OF perplexity and anxiety. due
largely to the inadequate supply OF
raw material to keep pace with the
greater mill capacity and with the
higher prices which have been neces-
STATED by the efforts on the part or
manufacturers to obtain suff1cient
raw material to carry on their mills.
The number of cotton spindles In
the world is estimated at l35,OOO,oOO'
which Is an increase Of at least 2O,-
900. 900 spindles since 1907. During
the past ten years there has been an
increase of 1O.4OO,OO0 spindles in the
United Kingdom, 100000 spindles
i'm Continental Europe. and 1,l55,OOO
spindles in India. The increase In the
United States for the same period Is
estimated at about the same number
as in the United Kingdom. The an
nual potential consuming capacity OF
the worlds spindles. if running on
full time, is placed at 22.5OO.OOo
bales of 500 pounds. In 19OS-9 there
were 5000, 900 less spindles and
consumption of about l9,5OO,OOO
bales. The production that year was
practically the same as the consump-
ton. In the following year, however
the production of cotton fell OIL by
about $500. 900 bales. while the pres
ent season of 1901 can hardly pro
duce 1000, 900 bales I'm excess OF the
preceding season. which would be T.,
500, 900 bales less than the potentlai
consumption. 1t is evident from TINS
situation that there is shortage III
the supply of raw material. whlch re-
suits in increased prices. Althoush
the average price Of cotton during
l9O9-10 was the highest for twenty
five years it is thought that the aver
age price for 1901 will be at least
two cents per pound more.
The net weight Of cotton or all xmas
manufactured i'm the United klnguoii,
during 19O9-10 was l,555. l36,SZo

The oath of Hippocrates, long the
pattern of a physicians obligation,
ran as follows:
II swear by Apollo, the physician,
and Asclepios, and | call Hygeia and
Panaceia and all the gods to witness,
that to the best Of my power and
judgment the solemn vow which |
now make | will honor as my father
the master who taught me the art of
medicine; his children / will consid-
er as my brothers and teach them my
profession without fee or reward. |
will admit to my lectures and dis
courses my own sons, my masters
sons and those pupils who have taxi
en- the medical oath, but no one
else. | will prescribe such medicines
as may be the best suited to the
cases of my patients, according to
the best of my knowledge, and no
temptation shall ever induce me to
administer poison. l will religious
ly maintain the purity Of my charac-
ter and the honor of my art Into
whatever house | enter | will enter
ii with the sole view of relieving the
sick and conduct myself with propri-
ETY. toward all the members of the
family. If during my attendance
hear anything that should not be re-
vealed | will keep it profound Sc
cret. If ] observe this oath may |
have success i'm this life, and may
obtain general esteem after it: if |
break it may the contrary be my
lot."-Charles Winslow Hall in Ma
tional Magazine.
