sThs Virgins eIessina..

Every Virgin in Spain Is Illuminated
with taper. In Eta, near Cordova,
an image or portrait Of the Virgin and
the Babe newborn hangs in well nigh
every room in every house. And why
Because the beautiful belief b rooted
in those simple minds that on Christ
mas eve, before the clock strikes Ia,
the Virgin, bringing blessings In her
train, visits every house whore she
can ind an image or portrait OF her
son. And many a girl kneels down In
robes OF white before her humble por.
trait Of the Babe and pfnys and hears
a rustling in the room and thinks, "The
Virgin comes; she brings me my Christ
mas eve blessing" and turns. and. To-
it Is her mother, and the Virgins
blessing il the mothers kiss!
