except the breeches On his back. written
with an indelible violet pencil, were cpl
grams that expressed in most uncompli-
mentary terms the writer's opinion OF
Donovan.
After Donovan's trousers had been

Richards streets whcn three men set up-
on him. They bound him hand and foot
and gagged him.
Then, Donovan asserted. the trio tied
him to telegraph pole and took off all
his clothes but his trousers which they
put to use as n street swceper's dust
bag. Next, joining hands. his tormenters
danced around him and the telegraph

Finally one produced pencil and wrote

Christmas

n the estimation of Bernard Shaw Christmas is a gluttonous. spendthrift -gy, foisted on us by unfortunate trades ien who can just make ends meet by the roflts of the Christmas trade"
 Unpleasant as this statement may sound . must admit that it contains a simple ruth which we verify in our own eXpe- fence every year.
 Certainly we do go to excesses. mental nd physical, during the holiday rush, and 10 matter how merry the festivities have ,een. we inwardly give sigh of genuine elief. when the stirring realities have peacefully settled themselves into history nd we have but the memories.
 The wisest and best of us do fall into ndiscreet ways We over-estimate our trength, and our purses, too, for that natter. We believe ourselves to be hu- nan dynamos. capable of undertaking any mount of work. of going for hours with put thought of food or rest and then mar fel when our nerves are on edge; our hearts palpitating with excitement and haste, and our brains in a mad whirl when we seek peaceful slumber which comes not.
 We do not allow our common sense md rational behavior to lead us over the many pitfalls which are sure to assail every holiday shopper. I mean feminine shopper, of course, for men, as rule, manage to go through the scrimmage none the worse for wear except lighter rocketbook and diminished bank account
