A CHRISTMAS LEGEND
Growing of the Cock to Keep
Away Evil Spirits.
Tale Of Saint Stephen, the First Mar
tyr, Whose Day Is pecem-
Der Twenty.Slx.

LIVER since that first Christmas eve
II the cock has crowed all night long
on the anniversary to keep away evil
spirits; for the cock is a holy bird
and knowing one. There Is pleas
ant tale of him and Saint Stephen, the
first martyr, whose day Is December
20, close by his dear Lotds.
Saint Stephen was King Herod's
steward, 1t seems, who served him In
the kitchen and at table. One night
as he was bringing In the boar's head
for his masters dinner he saw the
Star shining over Bethlehem. Imme-
dlately he set down the huge platter
and exclaimed:
mo longer, Herod, will ! be thy
servant, for greater King than thou
is born"
"What aileth theeT cried the King
wrathfully. do you lack meat or drink
that you would desert my service for
another'sf"
"Hay," answered Stephen. II lack
neither meat nor drink. But the Child
that is born this night is greater than
all of us; and Him only will / serve"
"That is as true" quoth Herod
shifting the table with his fist, "as that
this roast cock on the platter shall
crow before u.s."
Hardly were the words out of his
mouth when the cock stretched his
neck and crowed Justify, "Christus
natus est I" At this proof thai
Stephens words were true, Herod was
so angry that he made his soldiers take
Stephen outside the walls of Jerusalem
and stone him to death. And this is the
reason why, unto this day, Sain
Stephen is the patron of stOne-cutters

"The urchins, catching the infeC-

never had such a greeting before. AS
soon as he realized the panic he had
caused, he tore of his tall hat and
white cotton beard. Then from the
bags on his back he began to throw
gifts right and left and to tell who

Cleansing the Saucepan.

Here is a simple but most successful
method Of cleansing a saucepan in
which milk has been boiled. After
pouring out the boiling milk, quickly
replace the lid before the steam has
time to escape, and allow the saucepan
TO cool before taking II on again. Then
put the pan In cold water to soak. It
can be cleaned quickly and easily.
