DRESSING CHRISTMAS DOLLS
"Ee Sure the Clothes Come On and
Off," Is Advice Of Woman Who
Has Had Much Experience.

BE sure the clothes come on and
Off" This is the injunction that one
woman has to make every year when
she gets to work at her usual Christ
mas task Of getting so dolls dressed
for so little orphans who live in an in
stitution in which she is interested.
She buys the dolls at wholesale prices
and then gets good folk she knows to
dress them, but always with the re-
quest goes this injunctionA"be sure
and don't sew the clothes on"
The reason for this is the fact that
these so little girls are like all other
little girls in liking dolls that can be
dressed and u%ndressed, and the first
thing they do on receiving their Christ
mas doll is to see how readily it may

dressed again.
In dressing dolls it is possible to buy
paper patterns for doll clothes. One
set, sold by a leading pattern concern,
contains a cape with q hood, a jumper
dress and guimps. d bathrobe and q
petricoat and drawers-all for ten
cents. The only trouble with this sort
of pattern is that it doesn't always fit
the doll you choose; in fact, it is by
the merest accident that the paper pat
tern would fit the doll. Although the

ute later there appeared a pale-faced,
excited ser yant, waving his arms Wild
~ and shouting out:
"Who did it? 1t has gone through
the judges most valuable painting that
cost him two thousand dollars I"
A wild thought came to Jasper. It
would ruin his father to pay that big
two thousand dollars. All! he would
earn it himself. Longingly he glanced
at the vine-clustered cottage where
lived Edna Marsh, his first love, his
"girl." Half ar hour later he was
huddled in n boxcar, going west.
Then three gears, weary, toilsome,
with no word from home. He had been
lured to the gold %diggings. Most days
he picked up flakes and nuggets worth
a dollar or more. Twice he vas lucky.
He lived at the cheapest rate. In his
snakeskfn belt he stored the precious
dust. Then, just before Christmas, the
call of home was not to he resisted.
With a shock he aroused, chilled and
confused. Lantern lights daZzled him
from below. He made out half a dozen
forms. One was swinging an TX. It
sunk deep into the base of the tree.
."Take turns!" called out a stem
torian voice. "Let all hands have n
chance at cutting down the biggest
Christmas tree in town. How she will
tower on the common tomorrow night,
all alive with colored electric globes
and gifts for the kids!"
"Hold on" called down Jasper Wal
den, missed g clutch and fell to the
snowy ground.
He opened his eyes to find himself
lying on a couch in the house, his IA
Their, mother and sister bending over
him with solicitous care and there,
clinging to his sisters arm, pale and
anxious, was his boyhood love, pref
tier than ever-Edna Marsh.
"My boy, Oh, my boy, heaven is
kind" cried his mother.
Jasper unshipped the snakeskin belt.
"Father," he said, '1t's full of gold. 1t

his mother. "Your ball hurt the

There was a crash outside, then a
cheer. The great Christmas tree had
come down. The throng had seized it
and were bearing it away, singing,
"Peace on earth, good will to men,"
Jasper ran to the door, and Edna with
him.
"Men," he shouted, a-thrill with Joy,
waving his golden treasure, trim that
tree fore and aft with the brightest,
prettiest ornaments money can buy
and send the bill to mel" and then, as
he led his sweetheart down the hall
back to the parlor, he whispered:
"A Christmas kiss for the wanderer
returned!" and Edna pressed her
sweet lips to his own.

aG&yMD who called him Father
Martin" One Christmas eve
Father Martin, who had been reading
the story Of the three wise men who
brought their gifts to the infant Jesus,
said to himself:
III only tomorrow were the first
Christmas day and the Savior were
coming to this world tonight how I
would serve and adore him! 1 know
very we'll what 1 would give him."
He arose and took from a shelf two
little shoes. "Here is what l would
give him. my finest work. How
pleased his mother would be! But
what am I thinking OFF," he continued,
smiling. Does the Savior need my
poor shop and my shoes?"
But that night Father Martin had
n dream. He thought that the voice
OF Jesus himself said to him: Martin.
you. have wished to see me. Watch
the street tomorrow from morning UNI
til evening, for l shall pass your way"
When he awoke the next morning,
fntner Martin, convinced that what
he had dreamed would surely take
place, fastened to put his shop in
order, lighted his fire. drank his coffee
and then seated himself at the Win
dow to watch the passersby.
The first person he saw was a poor
street sweeper, who. was trying to
