Of all the legends of good Saint
Nicholas that have survived not in
the books, but in the traditions of
peoples the one that Is held most
near and dear Is that of the simple,
good old man, very much of the her
mit, who lived many centuries ago
and chose the eve of the Savior'h
birth to gladden the hearts of poor
children und poor people generally
In the neighborhood of his hermi
tage with such simple, useful gifts as
; he could afford from his suvlngs
tbroughoutt he year.
I An addendum to the story has It
that good old Santa Clans, or Nich
I olus, linUIng his benefactions grow
I lug in their needs beyond his modest
means, begged of the richer for the
poorer, so that by the time he died
he had established quite a custom of
j Christmas giving, which survives
until this very day, and is IIRely to
survive for so many more Christ
mases that we who follow so num
erously in his kindly way will never
live to see its end, nor will our child
ren down to uncounted generations.
The Christmas that we make real,
the Christmas that we realize is
Christmas, Is In its essence nothing
more than that earliest of medieval
Chrlstmases. made up of kindly giv
ing. If any outward and visible sign
were needed ol the Inner and spirit
ual grace of Christlunlty, no more
impressive evidence could be asked
than this of our own modern Christ
inas, which embodies the very soul
of pity, faith and charity. Ex.

Double Your Business
Let in the Sunlight
Suppose you kucw a man who kept his shades drawn tight all day and
burned kerosene instead of letting in the sunlight;
Suppose you knew a man toiling along a dusty road who would not accept
a lift when there was plenty of room in the wagon.
Suppose you knew a miller with his mill built beside a swift-running stream
who insisted ou turning the machinery by hand. ,
All foolish, you say? And yet look around you how few retailers take
advantage of the great advertising campaigns run by food, textile, cloth and every
other manufacturing line that you can name!
Thiuk a moment! What was the last advertisement you read and wondered
just which Store in town would be progressive enough to have the goods iu stock
so you could see them and purchase?
More goods'are sold under the evening lamp at home than you dream of.
Practically every live retailer advertises in his local papers. But how?
Put up your lightning-rod! Let all your customers know that you can de
iver to them the goods which great advertising, paid for by manufacturers, has
interested them in.
They will get the habit and you will get the business.
Practically every manufacturer stands ready to help yon help yourself. Ask
them for electrotypes suitable to run in your own advertising. Hook their trade
mark to your store.
Consumer demand for advertised goods is now divided broadcast among nil
the stores in town.
Use your advertising in local papers to focus this demand upon your
store And don't lorget to send for those helpful electros.
Read this again, for it means money to you.

Manager of Advertising, Iiuttcrick Building, New York.
