1914 POULTRY SHOW
LARGER THAN EVER
tContinued from First Page. I

ICOntinued from First Page.l
second week in December. The as
sociation is enthusiastic over this deal
since 1t clears the way for q greater
show. Last years show taxed the ca
pacity of Winterdale and unless more
floor space were to be had, the large
increase of entries In prospect could
not be handled.
This lease gives the local show the
most desirable IL not largest poultry
show room in the State. The Chest
nut street auditorium is unsurpassed
in the matter of light, both natural
and artificial; the heating and VEN
tilatinG system is modern; the ap-
po ntments are fine and with sixth
of an acre of floor space for staging
the show, there is little to be desired.
The cooping contract went to the
Gennessee Cooping Company, of Ro-
chester, N. Y. The show will open
at noon, Tuesday. December 8, and
close at midnight, Saturday, Decem-

Il Beauty Seekers

The formulas given here by Miss
Anna Held cover every important rae
tor In the requirement of beauty. These
formulas produce unusual results. They
are extremely economical; you mix
them mt home, and you then obtain an
article of unquestioned superiority, at
n mere fraction of the high cost of pre-
pared articles which are never so ef-
fective.
Miss Held cannot undertake to ans
wer correspondence by mail, but You

very question you have in mind.

ed for, this purpose and which really
see results in a very short time. Sim
ply mix together two tablespoonfuls
of glycerine, two ounces of cerol, and
pint of hot water. When cool it is
ready to use.
ELSIE M. r. - Much popular doubt
prevails as to the possibility of. de-
veloping the bust. This arises from
the fact that so many methods have
been advocated which are scientifical-
ly of no value or effect No external
cream will ever produce the desired
result. The only method worth try
ing is the famous Vaucaire formula.
This is a perfectly harmless treat
ment. and reliable. Make up mix
ture of one-half pint of water, one
ounce of gallol and half a cup OF
sugar. Dissolve thoroughly and take
two teaspoonfuls after each meal and
at bedtime. - Advertisement.

Probably the greatest attraction for
the Mexican children are the pinatas
Peddlers may be seen sauntering along
the streets carrying long poles which
are strung with varicolored pinatas Of
every description. draped with tinsel.
These represent flowers. fruits. ami

THE BLAZING YuLE LOG.
Il Holds Precedence Over the Christ
mas Tree In England.


mas Tree In England.
The Christmas tree was rarely seen
in England until made popular by the
German husband of Queen Victoria.
and. while it is universal there at the
present time. it is the Yule log and the
mistletoe that hold the center of at
traction. Long before England became
Christian country the Yule log was,
burned in honor of pagan deity at
the winter solstice, and the infectious
spirit of cheer and good will which
prevailed at that time survived when
Christianity spread abroad.
The festivities in England begin with
tie lighting OF the Yule log on Christ
mas eve. In many parts of the coun-
try the whole family. including serv
ants. gather about the hearth and
.'beguile the long evening with rural
games. legendary jokes and oft told
Christmas tales" One of the Oldest
customs observed in England is the
singing of Christmas carols from house
to house by Christmas carolers. Some
Of the carols sung today are at least
400 years old.

CHRISTMAS WAITS At

Popular Old English Custom Growing
In Favor In America.

Christmas waits" those bands OF
singers familiar in England for several
. centuries. have been less numerous In
recent years. but the custom. with Ger
tain variations. is gaining ground in
the United States The municipal
Christmas trees which will mark the
great holiday in many towns and cities
this year will have the singing OF
i Christmas carols and anthems as a
part of the exercises in connection
with the trees.
The town Of Burlington. n. j.. has
kept up the custom of the waits since
colonial days. Each Christmas eve a
band Of vocalists, recruited from the
choir of St Mary's Episcopal church.
start out an hour or SO before mid
night and sing carols and anthems in
various sections Of the city. They visit
the homes of the rector. the curate and
members of the vestry and sing before
. their doors. AS these homes are stu
ated in widely separated sections of
the city, the singing is heard by prac
tically all Of the residents.
Citizens of the town who may have
retired early are usually aroused by
the singing. and windows In upper
floors are thrown open. As the sing
eers move away after finishing the car.
OILS the listeners yell greetings to their
neighbors, close their windows and re-
turn to their coy beds.
In many of the houses before which
the singers render concerts the occu-
pants are expecting them, and they are
invited In to partake of refreshments.

The Three Kings.
By HENRY W. LONGFELLOW.

Three kings came riding from far away
Melchor and Gaspar and Baltasar.
Three wise men out of the east were they,
by day.
For their guide was beautiful. won
derful star.
The star was so beautiful. large and cea,
That all the other stars Of the sky
Became a white mist in the atmosphere.
And by this they knew that the coming
was near
OF the Prince foretold in the prophecy
Three caskets they bore on their saddle
bows.
Three caskets of gold with golden keys
Their robes were of crimson silk with
rows
OF bells and pomegranates and furbelows
Their turbans like blossomng almond
And so the three kings rode into the west
Through the dusk Of night. over hill and
dell.
And sometimes they nodded with beard
on breast
And sometimes talked as they paused to
With the people they met at some way
side well
'.Of the child that is born" said Baltasar
Good people, l pray you tell us the
news.
For we in the east have seen his star
And have ridden fast and have ridden far
To find and worship the King Of the
Jews"
And the people answered. "You ask in
vain:
We know Of no king but Herod the
Great"
They thought the wise men were men in
As they spurred their horses across the
plain
Like riders in haste who cannot wait
And when they came to Jerusalem
Herod the Great. who had heard this
thing.
Sent for the wise men and questioned
them
And said, Go down unto Bethlehem
And bring tidings of this new King"
