CHRISTMAS GIVING.

Some people think of Christmas merely as day set apart for the giving and receiving of presents, and the sacred festival and beautiful season ofgladness and song has become almost a burden.
 The fatigue and anxiety involved, in the selection of gifts, the problem of what to give and the worry of how much to spend, exhaust our strength and patience, and by the time the task is completed we are too weary to feel the spirit of the gladsone holiday. In truth. Christmas has become, in many cases, a serious tax upon our strength and on OUT pocketbooks as well. do not like to be "preaehy," but indeed it is time that we call halt on this deterioration of the most beautiful and sacred of all our festivals and holidays.
 Of course we owe some token of love aud good wishes to our near and dear ones at this time, and also some ex- pression of good will to our many friends and acquaintances, but let us make the gifts simple and inexpensive, dependent upon their intrinsic value as expressing our regard and our good wishes of the season rather than the obtrusive dollar mark 1t is in the worst possible taste to give costly presents to any persons but those bound to us by the ties of kinered or deep friendship and love-
 To any other the costly present may be oppressive, giving sense of ob- ligation which the recipients resents having thrust upon him. Again, on the other hand, some of us carry on a reg ular traffic in Christmas presents, SO called, where each one hopes and expects to get ''value received' for his outlay.
 Of course, this should not be- Every suggestion Of sordidness should be elim- mated from our Christmas giving, or we shall lose the spirit of the sweet festival of charity and good will
 Then, let Us give to our friends the simple little gifts that will prove precious for the regard which prompted them rather than their commercial value-as Emerson tells us, a card, a picture, little book, bunch of flowers or basket of fruit. For those near and dear to us, by kindred ties or long friendship, let us give the work of our own hands, if possible. For it is true that touched by hands of those we love. trifles do of magnitude appear. :"
 A gift is only the symbol of our love, and often the most simple and unosten- tatious little offering will express it as well as the most costly jewel, if only it have the touch of tenderness and love.
 Let us not spoil the beautiful season by lavish display and expensive presents, but give from the fullness of our hearts oHr simple gifts and loving wishes for a Merry Christmas Rogers Demo- crat.

HANDS BURNED LIKE FIRE

II can truthfully say Cuticura Rem
edies have cured me Of four long
years Of eczema. About four years
ago / noticed some little pimples
coming on my little finger, and not
giving it any attention, 1t soon became
worse and spread all over my hands.
If / would have them in water for q
long time, they would burn like fire
and large cracks would come. / could
lay a pin in them. After using all
the salves l could think Of, went to
three different doctors, but all did
me no good. The only relief ! got was
scratching.
$50 after hearing so much about the
wonderful Cuticura Remedies, pur-
chased one complete set, and after
using them three days my hands were
much better. Today ihy hands are
entirely well, one set being all ] used.

PUT "GHOST" ON DEFENSIVE
lrlshman Was In Tight Place, but Not
Too Frightened to Be Ready
With Retort.

To illustrate the ever-ready wit OF
the Irish the following story was told
at a banquet held recently:
An Irishman on his way home at
night was in the habit of cutting
through a cemetery in order to short
en- the distance. A group of friends
evolved scheme to have some fun at
his expense. Accordingly they found
a sunken grave across which his path
lay, dug 1t out and covered 1t with
boards in such a manner that he must
fall into the yawning cavity.
The Irishman came along and
everything happened as per schedule
While he was still squirming about in
the bottom of the hole, striving to ex'
tricate himself, three or four Of his
friends, attired in white sheets and
other ghostly accoutrements, sudden
ly made their appearance. Pat was
frightened out of his wits and almost
tainted when one of them said:
what are you doing in my grsvep
The tone was sepulchral. 1t made
the Irishman's aa.g aas.gr stand almost OF
end, but he could not fofss2 WIZ
retort. &
Faith, and what are you doing out
Of IT." he asked.
