A CHRISTMAS PRESENT THAT
 CAN SAFELY BE DUPLICATED.

Dear Editor Social Corner and Friends:-We read in the Social Corner the Sisters are planning to give their friends many home made Christi mas presents
 It is quite task to know just how to make Christmas presents to ad- vantage. Many times one receives a number of presents the same article, from a number of their friends, which they do not need ana cannot use such as carving sets, dinner sets, water sets, and many like presents.
 We are in hopes the sisters when making up their collection of presents will please remember there is a sister writer of the Social Corner who should be remembered-"Dian
 It would be very pleasing to me if all the writers would send this sister a present; and send her something which would be a help to her, and not have the presents all alike. For fear the presents would all be the same, no one knowing what the other sent, we would suggest that a purse be sent to "Diana;" and if the presents were all just alike, it would do no harm if they were dollar bills from one and all.
 Money can be put to so many dif- ferent uses.
 Money is just the thing to help keep the wolf from the door.
 Perhaps many of the Social Corner writers do not know that Diana" has not been able to walk for 20 years. and when the writers have enjoyed the past summer coming and going as they please, Sister Diana has had to sit in her wheel chair and look out to see the passing automobiles with many enjoying the comforts of life that she is deprived of.
 Dear Social Corner writers. think this matter over. Can you spare q little cash and make Diana" happy Christmas morning,
 Sterling. RURAL DELIVERY

because think so much of them, and know how anxious and worried they always are over their money matters
 l should go next to the little brown cottage where live two sisters, upon whom have fallen very heavy burdens. They are lovely Christian women, poor in this worlds goods, but never a word of complaint is heard from them. I would invite them to spend Christmas day with me, and when they returned home they would have a de- lightful surprise in finding Santa Claus had been there, filled their coal bin, left lots of substantials in the pantry, years subscription to 2, fine magazine, and last but not least, two beautifully decorated boxes of Christ mas candy.
 AS my money Is nowhere near spent yet, I have in mind a warm, heavy overcoat for our good friend, Peter. The one he Is wearing is very much faded and threadbare; yet, Peter will say in his cheery way as he pats the old coat affectionately, worn 1t since sixty-two. How delighted he would be on Christmas morning to find a new one hanging by It's side, with a Merry Christmas" card sticking out from the breast pocket
 wish l had space to tell you how three young persons who were try ing so hard to get an education, found a nice little Christmas envelope un- | der their plates at breakfast table, each containing a good big check, but l have already exceeded my limit of words. l can assure you the good work will go on until every cent is spent in some such way. do not know which will have had the happier time, the rich woman | or myself.

LEARNING TO BETTER THE CON-
 OPTION OF OTHERS.

Editor and Social Cornerites: Did you ever have the feeling of wanting to be rich? Especially at Christmas time. That is the way feel just now. am almost sure tht if "our country's richest woman," whom we read about in the Bulletin, a few days ago, could know of my many Christmas wants, she would immediately send me a gen. erous sum of money.
 Let me tell you what I would do should such thing happen. I would first of all buy dear Aunt Polly a carpet or rug, so that she would not have to sit all day with her feet wrap- ped in an old shawl, because so much cold air came up through the cracks in the bare floor. I would get her a pair of those warm shoes, made of listing, so soft and comfortable. I would also make sure that she had plenty of coal and wood. She is not spent in caring for others. She is now living all alone-husband and children dead; and in spite of her lameness is cheerful and happy. It would delight my heart to(give her these things, and much more besides.
 Then, I would pay off the mortgage on a little farm where live John and his wife Sarah. Two as honest and well disposed people as ever lived, but with taxes and interest to pay every year; and crops often poor they could earn hardly enough to keep themselves in shoes to say nothing about a new dress or coat occasionally, Wouldn't be the happiest person in town if l could pay off that mortgage and give it to them for Christmas present. just
