Santa. Clan Secrets '

---Q

The traditlpn of Santa Claus has al-

ways had its mystery, and it has al- ways had its years when circumstanc- es sought to push the mystery aside. “There ain’t no Santa Claus!" has .been a _dreadful announcement in many a life-.'so dreadful' that no one with a spark of human sentiment can fail to regard it as calamitous.

Yet no realism can utterly brush the

traditions aside. Certain Santa Claus images may be shattered, -but the mystery remains. Gifts are real, to be weighed and measured. But there are secrets behind them- and the spirit of Christmas, by whatever name or sign it is known, carries its hidden sentiment, its obscured methods of evoking the magic that illuminates the festive of youth and friendship.

The children who wonder, who peer

at the sky- long in advance of the fate- ful hours, are not more in the dark as to .sources than many s grown-up. Where do the wonders come from? Who invokes these resplendent dolls? Whose- wizard work is reflected in these extraordinary locomotives and wind-mills and soldiers and inhabitants oi far away jungles? Whose patient labor and astonished ingenuity de~ vines these delightful surprises - actually brings them into being for some one else to pick upfor transfer to just the right-final ownership?

The story never gets -told. You may

usk the gray-haired old msn in one workshop, and the golden-haired youu woman in another workshop, but none of them can tell you more than s bit of the story. A Sherilock Holmes might do a lot of tracing. He might even find the crippled soldler-lloldl- ers almost an much broken as some of the wooden ones will be s. week after Christmas, and still miss half the ro- mance of the Brest fact. Who shall tell the full history of the tens of thousands of hands that weave the tapestry of Christmas magic? Only 3 ti-ne poet, perhaps, could guess what mother hearts and hands, what sister and friend and fellow-worker have been doing and will be doing until the very brink cf the greet day,,to bring note of surprised pleasure where nf- fectlonate or kindly imagination chooses to have it struck. "To have it dons by Christmas!" That sentence visualise; enough to convict any i\°\l\' old skeptic that fashions may come and fiislions may I0. but that Chi-st- mss ha; an eternal Youth. .Belilild many s simple gift will lurk it pathos that may never be gues- sed. Behind many an acknowledg- ment of happiness will lie more than ever can be expressed. ,-

A Silver Tea Caddy

By Sophy F. Gould

She was ii frail~looklng little ,girl,

who had been self-suporting for 'over ihree years, since her mother died, and was tired now, as she walked through the street crowded with shop- girls like herself.

Listlessiy, in order for a minute to`

avoid the onrusli of hurrying humans, she paused before a. shop window where antiques of all kinds were grouped attractively.

There was little in the window to

interest a mite of :I girl earning a pal- tiicy $6 a week, yet of` s sudden her eyes, a moment before so tired, light- ed excitedly, and it casual observer might have noticed how exquisitely beautiful they were. The tired line of her mouth also relaxed, and hope- fully she stepped closer to the plate glass and 'peered for a lung, concen- trated moment at is sliver tea caddy of quaint design. -After a~second’s hesitation she opened the door and walked bravely into the little shop,

"The tea caddy?" she asked of the

woman who greeted ber inquiringly. "How much fis it?"

“_The little 'silver one?" The wbmeii

looked her surprise, as she noted the slia\bby black coal and much-worn skirt. "You wanted to buy lt?" she asked kindly, for something in the gli-l’s eyes made her know she was in earnest. “lt is $25.”

“Twenty~flve dollars!" the girl gasp-

sd, and as suddenly as It had come the brightness left her eyes. “Twenty- flve," she repeated. “l'm afraid .I could never afford that." She grip- ped her pay envelope firmly and. wr"- in5. walked out of the shop. '

In her tiny room, as she cooked

her meagre dinner over the gas plate, and later, when lying wide awake in. her narrow 'bed, she thought of the beautiful tea caddy. She thought until it became a cherished ideal, vested with wonderful scenes a-mong the great people of'the world.

The following day she neglected her

lunch, and hurried to the shop to once more view the wonderful caddy_

When she entered the woman

greeted her warmly, for the expres- lon in her eyes had, proved haunting to the woman all the past night.

"Did you really want to buy the

caddy?" she asked. as she handed it to the girl, "for if you do-”

“l must buy it," she interrupted,

as she took it reverently in her two hands, “but I can’t pay the money all at once." She hesitated.

"How much cciiid you ony'-"’ The

woman suddenly understood the glrl's need, and a great kindness came to her. “»Perharps we could come to terms."

"I have $2ithat I have saved, and

I think I can spare 50 cents each week. I only make S6." she adrled. apologetically. _

“Six dollars!" the woman $851165.

as the enormity of the girl's I1l'0.iB¢¢ came to her. “You may have lt at your own terms," seh said impulsive-

‘y"‘0h!" For a moment the girl held it to her breast, then she handed the money without .regret to the women.

In the days that followed the woman

became very fond of the girl, for she came often to gaze with awe upon the silver caddy Ol quaint design and in the short visits the woman 16871106 to know what B difference en ideal can make iii a life. in watching the girl's love for -the thing that kept her ,poorer than she need have been the woman found ber own life broad- erilng.

On Christmas eve a young man per-

sistently ti-led' to buy the caddy, until ithe woman finally told him the story ‘of its sale. He listened in wonder, and then asked for the name of the girl, who seemed so great a marvel that he wanted his mother to see and .belll her. ~~

The same evening, after the young

man had left, the girl nude her final payment, and with rwild JOY 'N09' blng in her heart carried the tea caddy home, and with it a bbsutiful bunch of holly, n festive touch from the woman. She had pinched hard to~save the 50 cents each week, but her reward

was great. and worth thg_5ha.pplneiis the ideal had always given er.

Ii, was again Christmas eve,_'ond a

dainty woman, wrapped in 'a iroft fur coat, opened the door of the -little sho and with e tended hand came

CURIOUS CUSTOMS AT WEDDINGS

'Phe New York Post remarks that

in some parts of the world their are queer customs still extant which make the marriage ceremony rather complicated In northern districts of England. for instance, it is coli- siderd important that marriage should take place while the moon is waxing, and not, waning. if the bridal' couple are to be followed by good fortune. In the north country it is also essential that an even number ofguests be asked to the feast, for an old superstition has lt that otherwise one of the guests will die before the year is out. In the Highlands a most unlucky omen is seen if a dog should run between the bride and groom on their wedding day: In Derbyshire the bees must be told the event and their hives galiy decorated. In parts of England and -Scotland there exists an ancient custom, the source of which ls unknown. demanding that a part of the wedding cake be broken over the head of the bride. the guests scrambling for the pieces. _

None of these usages, however,

can compare with the Chinese custom of hanging bacon and sugar on the setlan,chi\lr of a bride, in order that the demons shall refrain from molesting her on her wedding journey The Chinese bride also feels compell- ed to stand in a round, shallow haset while she dresses for the ceremony, if she is to posses a good temper and amiable disposition,

Il is the slow. insidious developments, incoming it little worse, -and :I little worse, and a little worse, until the evil has reached such stupendous proportions that it makes it possible for such evil to continue; and every- one passively submits to it like they do to influenza, consumption, or the “black plague," which decimates and reaks down the very heart und hope and health of thenntlon.

But someone had to start a propa-

ganda against consuuinption und in- fluenza to sta-mp out these death- dealing plagues. And someone has not to raise his or her voice ugnins-t the incoming w-aves from the ocean ot sensuality, lest it sweeps over and drowns out our civilization in drown- ing out the purity of our race." Said

niiiraiity dramas: “Men are snakes vultures, human beasts. I know, for I have been in-.irrleri four times." And as one looked at the -picture ol Li semi-niifie woman lying on a sofa holding a man's hand, rind "vamp- iiig" lit hlin, as the little girls say of the "vampire" plays . that are ad- vertised ln the papers from time to tiiiie. one feels sure she must know, if any woman on earth does, for no one else could bring out the snake, lhervultule and thc human beast" In a man like one of these “vtilupii'e women" could. To the pure maiden the man she loves is a saint, .1 demi- god, or a hero; to the pure. good lii- teliigent wife the, husband and father

of I* children is the earnest goodi faith ul upholder of all that is best in his age and -civilization, staunch for right, true as truth, a man whom both his times and his God can trust. lt' he fa-ils her and is not good as she believes him to'be-well! may she never find it out! And may he never fall vlctom to the vampire whose hus- bands (four of them! One wonders how she came to have so man-_yi be-

snakes, vultures. human beasts.”

‘-But," I seem to hem' some man or

woman say. ‘you are talking about ideal marriages where love exists. But what If it rlon't exist. What. if the woman has no Inspiration for the man who is tied to her?" Well, if he is capable of inspiration, and Heayen bless the men who are, he will find It in the lives of his pure sons and dan- ghters. It will flow like -an ever wld- ening river outward to bless the sons and daughters of the race. I-Ie don't need -the impure busilisk eyes of ii vampire for -inspiration to make of him a "snake, a vulture, a hum-an beast.” He don’t need -to be imarried (and, we presume. divorced also) four times in order to learn that is all she will ,ever make of him. The ancient -idea of a vampire was "a dead m-an or woman who, though dead, found the craving of lust insatiable. and fastened I-ts thoughts on a living man or woman until they sucked h-is life away. Don‘t forget that ancient definition of a vampire. It applies to the living vmmpires also, a dead soul with -insatiable lust and vanity, who has no heart or sympathy for all the homes it wrecks or the misery it
