Before sending away Christmas parcel you weigh it and then affix the proper amount of stamps. How would you like to weigh il upon scales that would indicate the amount of happi- ness that it will give to it's recipient? :?

No New Way of Keeping Christmas

have among my friends some who have tried new ways of keeping Christ mas. says an English writer. They have not been a success. When folk have done a thing in one way for some hundreds of years it is not easy to in vent better way of doing it Of course if has been done sometimes We have the steam engine, the electric telegraph. and so on. but with regard to keeping Christmas day no one seems likely to invent anything new that will be as good as the old. Roses and lilies will not do instead of holly and mistle- toe. and there is no satisfactory sub stitute for beef, turkey, plum pudding and mince pies
