THE HOLIDAYS.

The holidays they should be holy
days-holy with earnest gratitude,
with family reunions, and with the
uprestrained JOY of the little ones.
Christmas first and lasJ and always
in the fullest sense for the children.
Christmas! If there be child in
the family, how is it possible to have
other than merry Chrlstmasp They
begin weeks before hand, gloating
over dear old Santa Claus, writing
letters to him, planning little gifts
and surprises, their eyes shining with
secrets that slip out of the rosy lips all
unaware.
Blue eyes is wild about Christmas
already. God bless herl She has en-
thusiasm enough to rejuvenate and to
glorify a whole regiment of skeptical,
commonplace, weary men and women
Santa Claus is as real person to her
as is her own mother. She REFERENCES
him, she adores him, her eyes shine
when she mentions his name. And
Santa Claus is worthy object OF adora
tion. He is the spirit OF thoughtful
giving, of the joyous planning OF happi.
ness for others, and more than all, he
is to children OF today the messenger
and reminder of the child who was born
in manger so long ago, the Christ
child, who glorihed childhood, opening
the eyes Of the world to Its Importance
and teaching men auo women to be
tenderer and wiser in their relations
with the little ones, reverencing the
divinity that is breathed into them with
the breath of life.
Blue Eyes always has a glorious
Christmas. Would that every child
were storing up such beautiful mem
cries to brighten the years that are
to come. Is there any greater incon-
tive to pure and useful manhood and
womanhood than the memories OF a
happy childhood? And even though
there were no use in it, children have
an inalienable right to happiness, 1t
takes SO little to make them happy,
that sad child Is the most pathetic
thing in nature You are their SUD-
shine, father and mother. Smile and
see the light of laughter in their eyes
Frown and the light dies.

Mark Twain on Hawaiian Islands.

No alien land in all the world has
any deep, strong charm for me but that
one; no other land could so longingly
and beseechingly haunt me sleeping
and waking, through half a lifetime, as
that one has done. Other things leave
me, but 1t abides; other things
change, but it remains the same. For
me its bafhy airs are always blowing
its summer seas flashing in the sun (;
the pulsing of its surf beat Is in my
ear; / can see its garlanded crags, its
leaping cascades, its plumy palms
browsing by the shore It's remote sum-
mits floating like islands above the
cloudrack; can feel the spirit of It's
woodland solitudes; l can hear the
plash of its brooks; in my nostrils
still lives the breath of flowers that
persisted 20 years ago.

Home to many women means moth
ing more Than a laundry where they
take their clothes To be washed and
ironed; to the man place to eat and
sleep, their evenings being largely
spent at clubs or billiard halls. The
old fashioned home.keepers have be-
come almost lost quantity, Societies
of various kinds occupy much of their
time. The children are sent TO school
at the age Of six and the mothers are
at liberty to fit about until they return
at noon when the lunch OF food, pre-
pared outside the home, is placed be-
fore the family, and the duties until
high twelve are discharged. The after.
moons and evenings are given to So
ciety work OF course this does not
apply TO all homes. but there is gen
eral tendency to neglect the claims Of
the family for outside pleasure. We
have met some women, who, when
asked II they keep house, blushingly
reply, 1--WE do light house keeping,

AMSTERDAM, March Sit has oc-

presumption on the part of the Am

be tolerated any longer, and that it
was nothing short of a public scan
dal. He evolved the idea that the
United States should be known hence
forth as "Usa," an American an
"Usaner' and "usanisch" should be
the American way of doing things.
