The youngster who goes through ehild- hood without having stored up the mem- Dry of many whole souled Christmas frol ics is being robbed a robbery of the worst character. Not only the great day itself, but the entire holiday week should be remembered in the mind of the small person for its "joliy good times." But, apparently, in the whole ransre of entertaining there is nothing so difficult to "give" successfully as a simple party for children. This comes about because a little sensible thought is not brought to bear upon the subject beforehand. The keynote of catering for chihlren should be extreme simplicity, says What j to Eat. Do you remember that rabid little joke 1 1 ... : wmcn accompanies one 01 iu .uauuci .s society drawings'.' "Papa, dear," says ten der hearted mamma, who can't bear to see the tots disappointed, "the children have been invited to a party at the John sons on the 10th, to one at Thomsons' on the 14th and at the Simpsons' on the went about it with the same prear 20th. May I write and accept for thtm, vanged systematic care that a conimer- pupa?" "Oh, I suppose so," growls the pater savagely, "and while you're about it, suppose you drop in at Dr. Brown's and tell him to stop here on the 11th, the loth and the 21st." I'lain. wholesome food, of which the youngsters can eat plenty without injur ing their health should be provided in , satisfying quantities. Serve everyday I viands, but serve them in such a way j that they will appear to be of most un usual varieties. For example, plain bread and butter cut in the usual way the youngster who goes a-paitying would scorn; hut cut the bread into fancy shapes diamonds, hearts, triangles with a cake cutter; form it into sandwiches, tied with bebe ribbon such sandwiches will be consid ered delectable feasting. Don't serve tea or coffee. Pure milk, chocolate not too rich and lemonade are the more sensible beverages. For a buffet refreshment serve cold sliced meat, preferably lamb, beef or chicken; bread and butter sandwiches, with perhaps a little good marmalade spread between well baked rolls, hot bouillon, pure ice cream with homemade cake, fruit and simple bonbons. If the feast is to be a "sit down" affair, have something on t he following order: Cle;ir beef soup with croutons, chicken with cranberry sauce and one or two of the vegetables in season, or chops with peas or spinach and baked potatoes, a simple pudding, ice cream and cake, with fruit. Hut whatever the plan of the festivity may be let a number of merry little catches le introduced. Children love mysteries and surprises. Provide plenty of the genua n favors which contain pi per ca;-;. etc. Have a bag suspended from the ceiling which, when struck with a cane, bursts, showering sugared almonds and other good things. In the center of the table on which the feast is spread have a miniature Christ mas tree arranged to stand upright in a green basket or box. This tree is re splendent with tinsel paper, and from its branches dangle an inexpensive gift for every child of the number Around the tree, upon the cloth, may extend a wreath of red carnations. Aft er the meal this wreath is discovered to be composed of boutonnieres as many ns there are children in the gathering. Each child receives his gift by drawing the red ribbon which lies nearest his hand If it is desired to make the children's Christmas party a fancy dress affair, the Yuletide season may be cleverly suggest ed bv a "Meeting of the Toys." This is a version of the costume ball.

I lhi MUtlctoe and tbe Ynle Log Were , In Evidence Festivities Bejran a Week Before Christmas Day Bnt There Was No Santa Claus. fT is said that the American cus toms of celebrating the greatest of all festival days, Christmas, are descended from or are sur vivals of the old world customs which existed in England a couple of cen turies ago. Yet when these latter are examined into it requires a wide stretch of an unusually elastic imagination to link the ways of the present day with those of the seventeenth or even the ti,lit..onrh eentnrv It seems probable that the folks of half a dozen generations ago crowded mori merriment into the Christmas season than we of this age do, and they cial prince now devotes to some great GATHERING THE HOLLY AND MISTLETOE. financial coup, but the fun was of a boisterous kind, quite inconsistent with the crowded way of living these days, says the Washington Post. If one of the old merrymakers could come to life on Christmas day and celebrate the festival in the way fashion and custom demanded in his time, he would probably find himself in the lockup charged with rudely disturbing the peace. Noise, bluster, feasting, drinking and horseplay were the chief features of the old tiu:,' English Christmas, dift- niaking existed asjt had for many pre vious centuries, but that was merely an incidental feature and not nearly so Important ns the work of the pompous butler, upon whom devolved tne re sponsibility of carrying into the dining hall the great loar's bead. Tbe oldtime Christmas began a week before the arrival of the day, just as the shoppers of today rush out with fat purses to lure the holiday bargain. But purchasing gifts did not bother the heads or weary the bodies of the old world folks. The gathering of the holly aud mis tletoe for the decoration of bouse and church was their initial task, and it was performed by the village en masse. headed bv brave pipers and fiddlers. who tilled the forests with the joyful melodies cf Christmastide. It vras the pagans who first used holly aud mistle toe for observances, aud the practice was adopted by the early Christian churches. The Creeks aud Bomans also used them in their religious ceremonies, as did the Druids and the Celtic and Gothic nations.

A mediievnl observance which ill- ways followed the gathering of holly and mistletoe was the cutting and hauling home of the Yule log. The fa vorite Yule log was a cross grained block of elm or the rugged root of a tree of fantastic and grotesque form. Formerly the members of the family and guests sat down in turn on the Yule log, the throne of the master ot the revels, sang a Yule song and drank to a merry Christmas and happy new year. As part of their feast Yule dough or Yule cakes were consumed. These bore impressed figures in the shape of an image. Sometimes they were made in the form of an infant. Nor was the manger overlooked. WHO IS SANTA CLAUS? Tradition Answers With n Pretty Story. It is frequently asked, "Who is Santa Claus V" Here is a story about him that 7 lets light upon his real character. He was bishop of Myra and died about the year 32(J. Among his parishioners (so runs one story) there lived a certain no bleman who had three daughters. From being rich he became so poor that there seemed to him no means of obtaining food for his daughters but by sacrificing them to a dishonorable life. Over and over again the thought came into his mind to tell them so, but shame and sor row held him dumb. Meanwhile the maidens wept continually, not knowing what to do and having no bread to eat, and their father became more and more desperate. When St. Nicholas heard of this, he thought it a shame that such a thing should happen in a Christian land. Therefore one night when the maidens were asleep and their father alone sat watching and weeping he took a handful of gold and tying it up in a handkerchief repaired to the nobleman's dwelling. He considered how he might bestow it with out making himself known, and while he stood irresolute the moon coming from behind a cloud showed him an open win dow. So he threw in the gold, and it fell at the feet of the father, who, when he found it, returned thanks and presented it to his eldest daughter as her wedding portion. A second time St. Nicholas col lected a similar sum, and again lie threw it in by night. So a wedding portion was provided for the second daughter. But the curiosity of the old nobleman was now excited. He greatly desired to know who it was that came to his aid. There fore he determined to watch. When the good saint came for the third time and prepared to throw in the third portion, he was discovered, for the nobleman seized him by the skirt of his robe and flung himself at his feet, saying, "Oh, Nicholas, servant of God, why seek to hide thy self?" And he kissed his feet and hands. But St. Nicholas made him promise that he would tell no man. CHRISTMAS IN THE SOUTH. How the Day Won Celebrated In Olden Times.

His friend and his friend's pretty wife were just vying with each other in their efforts to dis pel from his soul the gloom supposed to come to the man without a Home upon this day above all others. They had wined him and dined him, aud now that they were seated in the li brary facing the burning logs in the fireplace the hostess brought out the bachelor's Christmas present. It was a brierwood pipe, with a beautiful curved mouthpiece as transparent as glass. "Now, I bought this myself," she ex plained sweetly, "and I told the pipe man that if you didn't like it after smoking it I was going to make him exchange it. Y'ou must try it now." This the bachelor proceeded to do, thanking his hostess for her solicitude in picking out the pipe herself. "I think the mouthpiece is such pretty, clear amber," she went on as she saw her guest stick it between his teeth and begin pulling away. "Yes, it's remarkably pretty," he as sented, but there was just a tinge of doubt In his tone. The bachelor sat in his chair, with the mouthpiece bet wet u his teeth and two fingers of bis left band clasped about the stem, smoking very peace fully when there was a sudden blind ing flash before his eyes, a fierce pain at the tip of his tongue and a cloud of camphor smelling smoke rising to the ceiling. The bowl of the pipe fell to the floor and the burning tobacco was spilled upon the carpet. The mouth piece bail vanished. The hostess screamed, the two men sprang to their feet. "What happened?" cried the woman in alarm. "Oh, nothing," explained her hus band, "except that your beautiful am ber mouthpiece is celluloid ami has burned up." Then he stamped out the burning tobacco ami gazed ruefully at the big hole in the carpet. "Oh." exclaimed the hostess to the bachelor as blushes cam' to her cheeks and tears to her eyes, "what can 1 say? That horrid pipe man! He promised so faithfully that be wouldn't swin-Hv me." The bachelor didn't know quite what to say himself. lie had a bole in the end of his tongue, and this didn't help hiin any ia choosing ihe right words, but he managed to stutter that be was sure It wasn't her f.-.e't and that all pipe men were born villains. "Remember, my dear," remarked tht husband, with a reminiscent smile, "that the good Lord never in! .ide! women to be good judges of cigars, tobacco or pipes." New York Sun. Every Idol Has Its tint.

CUSTOM has made it usual here abouts to ent turkey for our Christmas dinner, and accord ingly the festive bird will grace many a table. But it Is not ev erybody who knows how to carve a turkey, and the hints given here may help many a bewildered man to so de mean himself that the ordeal may not disgrace him iu the eyes of the wife of his bosom, as well as of those guests who may be present at his board. Have the turkey resting upon his back. Put the two tined fork iu about an inch in front of the peak of the breastbone, where it will sink into a hollow formed by the peculiar con formation of the breartboue. The bird is then held firmly while the carving Is being done. The first thing to do Is to take off the legs at the second joint. Cut down alongside the leg and bear outward a little, with the knife set well In. The knife is inserted above the leg, and after making an incision It Is pressed outward. The second Joint then parts easily from tbe body. Alt er both legs are removed in this man ner tbe wings should be cut off, the knife being used on practically the same principle as that employed in re moving the legs. The uct point for the skillful carver is to s; par. ate the "drumstick." or first joint, from the rest of the leg. This is done by lb: ing the fork In the second joint of I in- turkey. Then an incision is made at tin- Joint, and the end of the leg is then pressed down with the knife. The breast of white meat is now at tacked. Tbe fork is again placed over the breastbone in the original position, and slices are removed from the breast. The slicing should commence near the peak of the breastbone, the cuts being taken thinly, the knife held horizontal ly and the cuts extending downward toward the wing. Alter the meat lias been taken from both sides of the tur key's breast in this fashion tbe knife is inserted transversely behind the lit tle projection on the breast between the peak and the neck. This is formed by the "wisleiotie."or "merry thought." The knife slips easily between Ibis and the breastbone, so that the "wishbone" is easily removed, carrying with it a liberal portion of white meat. The re moval of the "wishbone" makes a con venient opening into the interior of the turkey, through which a spoon may be inserted for the removal of the tasty dressing. Nothing now remains but the car cass of the turkey, and the only task is to disjoint it. This is done by first re moving the breastbone. By means of Ihe fork the peak of the Imuic is raised and swung over toward the neck, dis jointing It near the base of tbe latter. The neck, if desired, can be removed, leaving only one more iorlion of the bird to be dealt with. This is the back bone. The backbone; is broken nlout three inches .above the tail, and there you are.
