To combat the film

The purpose is to combat film on teeth.
Film is that viscous coat you feel. II
clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays.
Old methods Of teeth clearing did not
end it. So month after month, on count
less teeth, it may do ceaseless damage
Most tooth troubles are now traced to
film. And those troubles, despite the
tooth brush, have been constantly in
creasing. So flm-removal is nowadays
considered all-importatlt.

smoke and stain the film will see conspicuous
effects. Women's teeth will be made to look

USt or CHRISTMAS STOCKING
Good St. Nicholas, Saint Of Fourth Century of Christian Era,
 Founder of Custom.

cgvg~1 tlRISTMAS stockings have .SSAg2 come down to us from the RTIXl good St. Nicholas, who was HNISE% a saint of the fourth cen
 tury of the Christian era and was born December 6, 342 in Lycia. Asia Minor He was regarded as especially the patron saint of chil- dren, young girls and sailors. The Christmas stocking custom arose as follows:
 It seems that St. Nicholas, who was the archbishop of Myra, lived in the same town with an impoverished nos bleman who because he had no DOT tions to give his daughters, and indeed no means with which to support them. was about to sell them into a life of sin. St. Nicholas, who was accus- toned to dispense his large fortune in gifts of charity, resolved to rescue the young women. As he approached their house wondering how he should proceed, the moon shone out and dis played an open window. Instantly St. Nicholas threw purse of gold in at the window which, falling at the feet of the father of the girls, enabled him to portion his oldest daughter. The second time St. Nicholas visited the house he also was able to throw a purse of gold through an open window, thus providing for the portion of the second daughter. On the third visit the father, watching for his benefac- tor. cast himself at the feet of the saint and cried:
 "Oh. St. Nicholas. servant of God. why seek to hide thyself?"
 The saint made the father promise not to reveal his benefactiOns. From this habit of bestowing gifts in secret and under the cloak of night arose the practice of putting out shoes or stock ingS for the younger members of the family, so that the good saint would be able to fill them without being spied on. At one time it was the custom for young women pupils in convents on the even of Saint Nicholas to hang their new silk stockings on the door of the apartment of the abbess. They would also write notes calling the attention of the good St. Nicholas to their stockings. In the morning when the convent pupils who had not gone home for the holidays arose they invariably found their stockings filled with sweetmeats.

BE SURE GIFTS WILL PLEASE
In Making Same Articles for Friends 1t Is Well to Be Sure of
 Appreciation.

,5rTA WOMAN tells in recently SSAgSRA published magazines how : oSSSSo she has a pillow Christ I9ae9 mas" for the benefit of her
 many friends. She con suited the piece bag, and from it drew forth the materials for making any quantity of dainty sofa pillows, all des tined for different friends. The cost of the materials was chiefly that spent for silk cords. for embroidery silk and for filling for the completed pillows. Nearly all the pillows were made by eouching figures cut from contrasting materials on a chosen background and the result was completed. The very same idea might also be carried into effect by the girl who loves to make dainty stocks. There never was a time when the prevailing styles of fered such a dainty array of collars, and a box of assorted colors and kinds would be welcomed by any girl friend. There might be found in the piece bag all sorts of bits of silk and rib bon which could be fashioned into the daintieSt of dressy stocks, as well as bits of lawn and percale which would do nicely for stocks for every day wear with cotton shirt waists. The gift of box of stocks might be made valuable if the box itself was thing of beauty, and this could be brought to pass by the girl who is expert with her needle. Giving the same sort of gift to a large number of people is perfectly proper if the gift is one which Is calculated to please everybody. We've heard the story of nice old lady who always made pin-cushions for all her nieces and mittens for all her nephews every year. It was said that her plan gave great pleasure to one person. the aunt. It's good idea to be sure your gifts will be appreci- ated before you go inio the wholesale manufacture of one style of article for many people.

them. At present they are leafless,
