MAKE YOUR XMAS
PURCHASES EARLY

If you eet pushed out of all
chance Of buying those Christmas
presents at II o'clock Christmas
eve by the mob at the counters, lay
the blame Alright, for now five
weeks before the holidays the En-.
terprise sends a timely warning to
buy those purple sox for brother
John and the shawl for grandma
before the storm Of last minute
people besiege the stores and leave
a trail of too late behind.
Consider the clerks. if not your.
self. It's like driving lambs to the
slaughter, to work on Christmas eve
said one experienced shop girl.
| Why put off buying gifts until the
day before when shopping in Nov
ember is easy. The clerks are not
over-rushed and can suggest ap-
propriate presents. the selection is
wider and more time can be given
to choice.
A systematic way to do Christ.
mas shopping is to make a list Of
friends and relatives, jet down pos.
sible things they would like and
tour the stores all in one day to end
the ordeal.
The business man who puts all
thought of Christmas aside until thu
dawn Of the eve brings realization
that maybe the wife and children
are expecting to be remembered il
the one who rushes into a store. de
, mands something appropriate for
finicky wife, waits an hour to b
waited on, can't find what he want
and ends up by buying a new smok
. ing jacket for himself.
Then, there's the neglectful won
an, abusing clerks, picking throuel
the left overs and complainin
about the poor assortment in store

herself a new silk dress Q

Steadily the roads that lead to sue.
cess in literature are being made cas-
Ter. A good many people who would
like to write fiction, but have shrunk
from the labor Of finding equivalents
for "said," will welcome list Of sub
stitutes for the necessary little word
published in the Boston Writer. There
are no less than 1856 fairly satisfactory
variations, from "acceded" to 'yowled."
The prisoner at the bar no longer
need say that he is innocent. He can
babble 1t or bawl 1t or blurt 1t or
breathe it, to use but one letter Of the
alphabet. The vindictive district at
torney can bark his questions, the law
yer for the defense can boom his OBJ
jections, the spectators may either bris-
tie their indignant protest or blubbcr
their sympathy. But the merit Of such a
list is not simply that it facilitates the
management Of dialogue. A thorough
study Of the 3S5 substitutes for said"
will easily suggest the plot and the
characterization that must precede d1a-
logue. The letter G in itself Is COM
pendulum of plot and a gallery Of por-
traits. Given somebody who cachi-
mates, another who chuckles, another
who COOS, another who croons, an
other who challenges, another who con-
fesses and minor characters who cry,

plain that we have a scenario almost
ready made-New York Post.

TWO RUNAWAYS
FURNISH THRILLS

Main street was treated to a couple of
thrilling runawayS Wednesday. The first
came in the morning when a sleigh was
overturned nearly in front of CITY Hall
square. The team with woman driver
was coming down the street at good
clip when she apparently tried to cross
the car tracks. The sleigh caught in one
rail and nearly went over. went across
to the other and went over, the woman
going out and the horse running down the
street, where he was stopped without
trouble. No one was injured and no dam
age was done. At about $50 in the after
noon team driven by Mrs William
Blanchard of the Eight Rod road and
with Mrs. Ezra Curtiss, a neighbor, with
her, was going past the Oakland electric
car when the motorman struck the gong
The horse SHE'D and overturned the
sleigh. throwing both women out Mrs.
Blanchard hung to the reins and was
dragged down the street to City Hall
square, where she was forced to give up.
The sleigh was left in pieces along tn.
road and the horse finally freed ITSELF
dashed through the big drifts on the park
and after going back and forth through
them for time became sufficiently ex-
hausted to slow down and was captured.
The sleigh was a wreck but the women
escaped with only a severe shaking up.
1t was wild looking sight. however. for
few moments as the horse seemed to
go mad and jumped and plunged about
until freed of the weight on the reins.
