THE USE OF
CHRISTMAS CARDS

Never in the history of the develop
ment of social customs have Christ
mas Cards been so much used as they
are to-day.
The custom is almost universal and
is extending each year; a fact that is

this is the least expensive and most
delicate means of conveying our
share in the sum total Of Christmas
happiness.
While ready-made cards for this
occasion are offered for sale at many
places. these are not so much in
demand now as those which are
specially engraved Cards for Christ
mas Greeting should express ones
individual taste in as great a degree
as a cordial personal greeting. and
this can ,ouly be accomplished
through the medium of a card en-
graved in accordance with your own
taste in arrangement and artistic eff
feet.

MILWAUKEE,. Nov. 22-With the

the upper peninsula of Michigan, the
prospects are that the new rule Of

This is the slogan of the unwritten
blood code" IF anyone shoots 1T

In fact some people regard it as kind of super

mountain doctors know 1t exists and that it kills
cattle and human being who use milk from cows
afflicted with the disease or eat their flesh. The
symptoms are those OF violent mineral poison,
The encyclopedias and some of the medical works
recognize the reality OF the disease, but speak
of IL vaguely. Observant mountaneers have no
tced and handed down tradition that certain
spots an the mountains seem to harbor the
plague The places usually are coves, deep in
the shadows of steep mountain sides, frequently
close to heavy laurel thickets. where the sun
shines only at midday and darkness fingers long

the grass is heavy with dew until late in the
