Electric Bulb Burst lnWardlY.

When an electric bulb is burst,
either by design or accident the force
of the explosion is inwardly. This has
been proved by painting the bulb with
a harlequin effect, half one color end
half another. After the explosion
which may be accomplished by we'll
aimed bullet from ii pistol, the colored
pieces will be found scattered on the
floor on the opposite side from which
they were originally placed.

Aye, from humble hut and steepie
In that land that lies afar,
Rise the anthems of the people
To the glowing Christmas Star;
There is told the olden story
How amid the scented hay,
Christ, the Saviour, came from glory
Upon earth's first Christmas day.

Where Christmas Comes From
By T. C. HAR AUGH

From the land of song and story,
Angel-kept and old as Time,
Where the lily in her glory
Reigns the Queen of Judah's lime
From the village of the stranger
Where the infant Saviour lay,
Graded in an humble n,anger,
Christmas comes to us today.
