St. Winn!tTed
and the Tree

One story of the origin Of the green
tree as the Christmas tree among the
people Of northern Europe is given in
a legend Of st. Winnifred, 1t Is one
of the many thousands of those sim
pie and beautiful beliefs that have at
tached themselves to the midwinter
festival and which generally pass now
under the name Of "ChristmaS myths"
1t is related that st. Winnifred a great
Christian missionary, began cutting
down a Sacred oak which had been
the object Of worship by the northern
pagans whom he was seeking to lead
Alright. While he was hewlng down the
huge tree it was blasted by a sudden
Whirlwind. Close beside it was
young fir tree, which was not harmed
either by the whrlWnd or by the fall
Of the giant oak. Then st. Winnifred
Is reported to have spoken as follows
to the pagans:
"This little tree, a young child Of
the forest, shall be your holy tree to-
night. 1t is the wood of peace, for
your homes are built of it. 1t is the
sign of an endless life, for its leaves
are always green. See how it points
toward heaven Let this be called the
tree of the Christ Child. Gather about
1t; not in the wild woods, but in your
homes; there it will shelter no deeds
of blood, but loving gifts and acts Of
Kindness"
The fir tree, the common evergreen
of the northern regions, became the
holy tree of the converted pagans, and
in its honor or in memory Of the
thoughts it stood for they decorated 1t
with lights and gifts at Christmas.

WHEN EVERY MOVE HURTS

Lame every morning, achy and stiff
all day, worse when it's damp or chill
ly? Suspect your kidneys and try the
remedy your neighbors use. Ask your
neighbor.
Mrs. E. C. Ryder, 81 Seymour St.,
Middlebury, says; From overwork-
ing at my household duties and around
a dairy, suffered with a severe back
ache which was very dull and annoy
ing and would be worse at times when
I would bend over when it would
change to sharp, shooting pains.
Through Doan's Directory l learned
of Doan's Kidney Pills and started
their use. l used about six boxes of
them and was helped so much that I
have had no return of any symptom.
1t is about eight years since 1 had
that attack and since my cure have
had good word for Doans. I gen
orally buy this reliable medicine at
Sheldon's Drug Store"
The above statement was given Sep
TENDER IS, 1916 and on April Is, 1920
Mrs, Ryder added 81 still think
Doan's are good l haven't used them
since l was cured several years ago.
My statement which 1 made at that
time still holds good. Time cannot
change my high opinion of Doans.

Christmas Is
ChAdr ems DAY

The message of Christmas is love.
It's emblem is radiant, thankful, con.
tented childhood. without love and
without children there could be no
real Christmas. The form might sur
vive but the substance would be lack
ing.
Unhappy must be the adult who can
not make himself a child again in
spirit at the Yuletde. For Christmas
is the universal children's day. Men
and women are superflnOus except as
they make themselves partners with
those whom the day glDrlhes.
Let us, then, lay aside the affecta-
ton and arrogance of manhood and
wOmanhoOd and be children again.
Let us adopt their point of view and
put ourselves in their places--in the
places Of these sons and daughters of
ours and of the sons and daughters of
our neighbors. 1t was only a year or
two ago, as it seems, when we hung
our well-wOrn stockings in a row along
the mantel shelf, while our fathers
and mothers looked on with unfeigned
pleasure at the innocent confidence we
showed in what the morrow would
bring forth.
Even as you and l. 1t all comes
back in a flood Of memories. Life
was simpler then. Our desires were
less pretentiOus than those our chill
dren voice now. Modest remembrances
they were that bulged toe and heel Of
the stockings mother knit.
Life and its circumstances change,
but the essence of Christmas never.
The same happy childhood the same
restleSSness the same snail-like creep
ing of time as the holiday approaches.
The same parenthood, toO-the same
planning across the reading table after
the boys and girls are abed, the same
loving consideration of what this or
that child most desires and how far
the family purse can properly be
stretched to permit some further pur-
chase.
Every home is assured Il Christmas
If it has great, warm heart pulsating
in tune with the hopes and joys of

The Mothers
Christine rs Gift

It never comes to Christmas but |
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and
our nickeIs and our dimes,
And we punched them all together,
even little baby brother
PutinsOmething for the present that
we always gave to mother.
We began to talk about it very early
in December,
Twas a very serious matter to US
children, | remember,
And we used to whisper nightly our
suggestions to each other,
For by nothing cheap and tawdry
could we show our love for
mother.
Hers must be a gift Of beauty, fit to
symbolic her ways;
Unjust represent the sw eetness and
the love that mark ed her days.
It must be the best our money, all
combined, had pc wer to buy,
And be something that she lOnged
fOr;nOthing else W Ould satisfy.
Then it matterednOt the token, once
the purchase had been made.
Il was struggled home and hidden
and with other treasures laid,
And we placed our present proudly
in her lap on Christmas day,
And we smOthered her with kisses
and welaughedher tears away.
1t never comes 10 Christmas but |
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and
our nickels and our dimes,
And the only folks | envy are the
sisters and the br Others
Who still have thepreciOus privilege
Of buying for their mothers.
