COSTLY KISSES
AT CHRISTMAS
s T a Christmas dinner given every
MA year to the old folks it Hanley.
at Ja tuc capital of the potteries dis
trict in England, a quaint cere
mony is regularly observed.
At the conclusion of the meal one of
the oldest of the women guests ad
vances to the platform and kisses the
mayor on both cheeks. 1 His worship
gallantly returns the salute, and the
exchange of kisses continues nnjll all
the more venerable dames present have
been thus honored.
In large business establishments,
where the assistants live in, a great
deal of kissing goes on at Christmas
time. Some of the more daring spirits
among the male "hands" have been
known to make bets with one another
as to the number of different girls
they would kiss between Christmas
eve and New year's eve.
In a certain London drapery bouse
two or three seasons ago one ot these
"horrid males" made a record by salut
ing seventeen different damsels. But
he found the game was not worth the
candle, for. In addition to a scratched
face and a pretty severe pommeling
at the hands of a victim's sweetheart,
the rash youth found bis services dis
pensed with.
At another great emporium one
Christmas Indiscriminate kissing cre
ated so much trouble that more than a
dozen young men were dismissed.
Ever since In this particular establish
ment even the Introduction of a sprig
of mistletoe during the festive season
has been enough to insure Instant dls-
A girl who appeared with a sprig of
it In her blouse was ordered to put on
ber things and leave at once. A play
ful young man who merely pretended
to kiss a young lady assistant was
hurried off the premises with his hat
and overcoat in bis hand.
The Lancashire factory maid has a
little kissing custom all ber own that
Is sacred to Christmas. At this special
period she will kiss an overlooker or
any other male "band" in the expecta
tion that she will be rewarded with a
billing for ber temerity.
Woe betide the ungallant worker
who falls to part with the coin. He
will find bis coat sleeves sewed op or
nailed to the wall. If the girl herself
does not do this ber fellow workers
will. '

A MEt.sOi.ABLE
WATCH MEETING
NEW TEAR'S EVE came right
In the middle of a series of
"protracted meetings' which
bad been started in a little
church In the northern part of Indiana
me twenty-five yean ago. The
faithful few bad been gathering night
sfter ulgut for a month, and not more
than a dozen persona had knelt at the
mourners' bench. Including the chron
ic backsliders. Wbcn tbe opening
hymn was announced all tbe seats had
been taken, and a dense crowd of boys
and young men occupied the space be
tween the door and tbe last row of
seats.
As the hours slipped by and tbe end
of the old year approached the service
changed Into a season of prayer and
testimony. Tbe little clock which
hung on tbe wall behind the pulpit
finally pointed to 11 o'clock, and tbe
"on sows ob tocb Kims oa rUi skih
TOO AlilVBl"
preacher arose to make one .last su
preme effort to reclaim some soul from
eternal torment At his direction tbe
most zealous members of the congrega
tion left their seats and mingled with
the audience, looking for s chance con
vert It was at this critical moment that
an nnlooked for Interruption disturbed
the passing of the old year and marred
the peacefulness of the meeting. Dea
cons Wiley and Mills had been so bold
as to approach the godless crowd
around the door end suggest that there
was too much laughing and talking.
They had even dared to tell two or
three of tbe leading spirits that s fail
ure to preserve order meant ejectment
from tbe church. The sound of loud
talking suddenly reached tbe ears of
the worshipers, and all heads turned
toward tbe door. Loud curses and
angry words, uplifted fists and stamp
big feet told that a fierce struggle waa
taking place. Out of tbe tangled mass
presently came Deacons Wiley snd
Mills, each In triumphant possession of
a panting, disheveled, fighting prison
er. Tbe culprits were the sons of
their - captors, and against all their
kicking and squirming they .were
forced slowly along the aisles oa each
side of tbe enure b te the mourners'
beach, fighting every Inch of the way.
"Get down oa your knees, dam your
picture!" cemawnded Daacon Wiley,
Mixing hi. soa by the ebe-lders sad
allowing his indignation to gain the
mastery. "Get down oa your knees or

There was s suppressed titter from

POWER OF A WORD.
Why Prance Change- tha Name ef the
"Life Bavlna Belt,"
A vivid Illustration ef the power ot
mere words orer human beings was
once brought to tb snention of rrench
people by rrancisqne Sarcey.
After tbe wreck ot tbe Boarg-fns
many passenger, were found ftoettBg
drownad wtth life preservers en. The
life preservers were fatsened upon the
bodies, but round tbe middle t-stoaa
of under the anna, and the greater
weight of the upper part ot the body
had tipped the bead under water sad
tbe person of course was Inevitably
drowned.
Now It appears that the greater num
ber of the persons se drowned were
French. The French term for Hfe pre
server to eelntor de eauvstage. or "nf
serins; belt" This word eetnture aag
rests te tbe mind la Its momenta ef
disorder and anreadlness. such es a
great catastrophe brings, the Idea et
patting es a belt, aad as s belt is pot
round the waist and now bet etoe the
frightened person instinctively adjasts
the life preserver close a boat ue aips.
Th result to that as sooa as tb
person ee provided falls Into the water
bis body tlpe orer, with the heavier
part downward, and the bead to plung
ed besee t a tbe sorfsce.
Tbe word "belt" tteref ore, was tbe
cause et tbe lose of many lives tn the
Boargogne disaster. Sarcey according
ly proposed to cvaottract the fatal ef
fect of tbe rrench word by renaming
the article snd calling If a braastore,
which to a kind of waist, and by bring
big the word bras, or arm. to mind te
teach people to pet s -is preserver ea
