Saving Up For Christmas

A well dressed man in Market
street car rendered the conductor a
one dollar bill in payment for two
fares and. receiving his change, care
fully selected the ten cent pieces and
placed them in a separate pocket.
From the LIST Of September until
Christmas ! never spend dime" he
explained to his companion. Every
time l get one ] keep 1t separate from
my other change. and when get home
I deposit my dimes In one Of those
savings banks that don't open until
they contain $40. l am one Of n
very large family addicted to the
Christmas present habit and some
times am obliged to give as many as
thirty or forty gifts. BY not spending
my dimes l create a Christmas fund
without really feeling It. have done
this for several years and find 1t an ex-
cellent plan."-Philadelph Record.

Why She Shops Early.

''I'm going to start my Christmas
shopping right now and get it over
WITH" said Mrs. Jones at the breakfast
table.
"Ah. to aid the poor. tired shopgirl
and help the movement for early de-
liveries!" her son remarked in tones Of
commentator.
"Never thought Of that" was the
disconcerting reply. I'm going to buy
all my presents at Smart & Co.'S, and
shops like theirs have handsome de-
livery wagons. want all the neigh
bors to see the wagons stop at my
door. Last year bought lot Of these
things at expensive shops. and not
parcel was delivered until after dark.
For all the neighbors know they might
have come from Those pay by the week
stores In unmarked wagons"

SWAPPING THE CRANBERRY.
Dinner Game Suggested, but Not Rec
commended.

This is a game to be played at the
Christmas table. When the cranberry
sauce is brought on each guest must
place cranberry on the end of
knife. holding the knife in the left
hand with the right hand close behind
the cranberry. At the word SNAP"
given by the hostess, the cranberry
should be snapped with the first fin
ger of the right hand at the target.
The game shall be continued until each
player has shot away all Of his cram
berries. The score Is counted thus:
Hitting the hostess with a cranberry
counts one.
Hitting grandpa counts two: grand
ma. three; Uncle Will. four; Uncle
Tom. five, and so on. depending on
whom the guests and those around the
table are.
A cranberry that goes on the floor is
out Of play. but one that falls in any
persons lap or sticks In the hair or
on a coat or dress can be picked up
and played again. Anybody that hits
anybody else squarely on the nose
counts fifty to the lucky players score.
This is highly diverting game and
one that all will enjoy. especially the
hostess.-New York World.

Christening Wear For eabykins.

Baby at his earliest appearance in
society wears robe decorated after
the manner Of his mothers white
clever fingers can make them. for
there Is no striving after effect at the
expense of delicacy.
True lovers knots support punches
Of fOrgetmetnOts and fairy-like rose
buds. and In between simple device
Scalloped hens are permissible, and
in some cases the center panel. devot-
ed to the main motif of embroidery, is
finished with an outstanding hem
daintily scalloped and buttonholed.
The baby Of this century has much
curtailed length Of robe, but the chris
tening one is longer than the rest.
The tiny bodice and long sleeves are
marvels Of embroidery. and the waist
line Is indicated by half belt Of white
satin ribbon rosetted at the sides and
given long. flowing ends. Only be-
meath the hem of the robe at the neck
and wrists lace appears. and now. as
ever. real fine valenciennes Is. as q

A Birthday Party.

or convalescent is the home who must
spend her birthday in bed or propped
up with pillows in large easy chair.
For the party make attractive invi-
tations from fine grained water color
paper and tint them. If the child is
not too ill this will prove a pleasant
diversion. If you cannot draw pretty
sketches you will find plenty in the
magazines which can be transferred to
the paper by means of carbon paper.
Write the invitation in rhyme and
have the child seal and stamp the
envelopes.
Decorate the bedroom with branch
es Of evergreen. flowers or Grape pa
per, and against the wall, opposite the
bed. where it will be in direct view of
the child. place the table.
For the centerpece make a large
shoe from black cardboard and line it
with pink, blue or red Grape paper
Cut several small windows in the sides
and form the small. square panes by
FASTING narrow strips of white card
board over the openings. On the in
side of these windows paste piece of
the colored Grape paper to represent
curtains. You will find it simple
matter to fashion the shoe If paper
pattern is first cut and used for
guide. The top can be sewn to the
sole with strong black thread. About
the opening at the top paste plated
frill of the Grape paper. Bank the
base with flowers and place in it small
dolls to represent the "Old Woman
Who Lived In a Shoe" and her many
children.
The dressing of the dolls will also
interest the child, for she can select
the patches from the scrap bag
with which they are to be clothed. and
If not too i'll can assist with the sew
ing. The smaller dolls can be pur-
chased for 10 cents, but the "old wo-
man" doll should be several sizes
larger.
Supply as many small dolls as there
will be guests. and after the refresh
ments are served carry the shoe to the
invalid and have her distribute the
dolls as souvenirs The "old woman"
is retained for the invalid.
Suitable refreshments consist Of:
Sandwiches
Fancy Cakes. Fruit.
Ice Cream. Bon Bons.
Cocoa.
Make the sandwiches Of digestible
ingredients Chicken sandwiches are
always nice for children. Decorate tho
cakes attractively. If you have small
round cakes form flower on top Of
each by taking six blanched almonds
and radiating them from the center In
petal fashion.
The large birthday cake is. Of course.
the browning feature Of the party and.
unless the little invalid is placed on
diet. should be her special kind" of
cake. Place the candles in rosebud
holders about the rim and in the Gen.
ter arrange an appropriate ornament.
Have the child cut the cake after the
portions have been marked on the
icing.
Have the ices nodded in attractive
forms and select bonbons that are
not too rich, for naturally the chill
dren will eat great many Of the
sweets.
The entertainment should consist Of
games which the birthday child can
play.
