His Yuletide Scheme


A New York paper printed few
years ago an amusing letter written by
man who says he has invented a
simple plan whereby the prospective
sender of gifts may be put In touch
with the wants and don't wants of his
friends. His idea is simply that cir
cular letter should be mailed TO his
friends about Dec. 10, The letter
should state that, as the recipient has
given him presents in the past, the
writer supposes be is considering a
continuance of such action, and In or
der to spare the giver worry and the
writer disappointment, the latter Is
solving the problem by the application
Of little common sense.
He proposes to ipclose two lists. one
containing the names Of articles he
does not want while the other list
would have upon it gifts he would like
to receive.

THE COST OF LIVING.
With prices always rising

With prices always rising
In a manner most surprising,
1t costs so much to live just now that
everyone complains.
The theme of conversation
Throughout this mighty nation
Is the way in which the outgo now
your slender income strains.
There's nobody refuting
The assertion or disputing
That the present cost of living is ex-
brilliantly high,
And yet, whate'er they task us,
We pay whate'er they ask us.
For, no matter what it costs to live,
nobody wants to die.
