As this Is what the boys have all been waiting to hear they troop out Instantly, mnkine a mental memorandum of "neck- erchers" and bandana "head han'ker ehere" which Aunt Maria wants for Christmas. By 5 o'clock the next morning, while the stars are still shining, the wagons rattle off to, the fields. The joljy face ot the country sun lights np myriads of frost diamonds hune on the sparse spears of -ellow ass. Along the roads wagons drawn bv tor horses. Inside the fsrmhouse everything 1b in hnstlina- confusion. The blinds of the spare room have been drawn np to let in a flood of bright winter sunshine. Dis trict school has closed for the holidays. The children are in the kitchen stoning raisins, helping pare apples, slyly steal ing cake dough, and watching the sau sage as it ia ground out from the sausage mill In strings. "Ho, ho!" the youngsters suddenly shout in chorus. "Yonder comes Tom Hawkins, riding up the lane on 01e Sor rel,' full tilt." Tom dismounts by putting his arms around "Ole Sorrel's" neck and sliding down her forelegs to the ground. He is riding bareback. - "Out folks Is goln' to give a party I" he snnounced. "When?" shout Bob and the others, in great excitement. , "Night 'fore Chris'tnas: 'n I'm goln, 'round to tell ever'body, right this morn in'l" "Play party?" "Yep!

Aunt Maria shines the shoes until you can see yourself on their polished surfaces. The boys, in a home-made sleigh, are off for the girls, sometimes live or six miles away. The girls at the house wait for their beaux, who come likewise from the neighboring houses or from the little towns near by. "Zip, aip, ha, ha, hurrah," and up conies a sled with a dosen young folks bound for the party. The sled is a long one, with a wagon box mounted on the cross-beams. Three or four wagons SANTA CLAUS IS PRESIDENT. have been stripped of their spring seats to equip the sleigh. The bed of the box is filled with hay, which keeps everybody's feet warm. Away the sled whirls, taking a short cut across the bottoms, running counter to rocks and logs under the snow, and almost spilling the whole party out Out In the open road another sleigh turns in at the crossing ahead. This Is the sig nal for a race. The horses know it, and give a bound that brings the two wagon boxes abreast of each other. The party is In full swing by 8 o'clock, and supper is served by 10. Old Uncle Ben furnishes the music for "snap, "Weevilly Wheat," and all the other rol licking games. Uncle Ben begins to "tune un." while everybody shoves his chair back against the side of the wall to clear the center of the floor. "Twa-ang, scr-a-ape, tweedle, leedle, leedle, le-e," goes the fiddle, while Uncle Ben screws his face into a thousand wrinkles. Sometimes, of late, the Hills boys have furnished the music for the parties, much to the disgust of Uncle Beu. He declares that "wen dem boys gits hole o' one o' dem new tan gle gityars an' anodder one on 'em goes slap-e-ty bang on Miss Hawkins planner, hit 'em jls miff ter mek yo' bar stan' on en'. 'Tain no mo lak music dan beatin' on er dish pan." As 12 o'clock approaches everybody Is alert to get everybody else's Christmas gift. This ceremony being over, the party breaks up, the young folks race home, and big and little hang up their stockings In front of the fireplace. : Bob Is growing skeptical about Santa Claus. . He resolves to sleep with one eye open, but weariness overcomes hi bright little eyes at last. When Tom wakes up the hired man is putting a back-log in the fireplace, and soon the blaze Is crackling awav on the hearth. He prnicnes lira. "Chris'mas gift, Tim, Chrts'mas gift!

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS GIFT. Malta Your Gift aPnraOne, and Give It with Lore, "If you had the wealth of the world you could uot equal that first Christmas gift," writes Kuth Ashmore in an article on "Girls and Their Christmas-Giving," In the Ladies' Home Journal. "And you can only imitate it by making your gift a pure one, and giving it with love. You want to share, this Chrlstinastlde, your faith, your hope and your charity with those you love. You want to make your very 'good morning1 tell of that good morning that came so many hundred years ago when the little Child first wakened on tills earth. You want to think of the gifts that were brought to lllm and what they typified. You want to have your heart full ot Joy, and love, and hope so full that it will brim over and the rest of the world share It with you. You want to tell, In your speech aud in your eyes, and from your heart, of the gladness of the time. Yon want to make this gladness go out to some one who Is In grief. These are the days when you must needs give of your good things, and among all your possessions there Is nothing so good as a belief In God and a hope for the future. That was what the little Child came to tell about. Surely the Christmastide la the feast of all others that appeals to women, and as the story is told again and again by the bells as they ring, by the carols as they are sung, by the preacher from the pulpit, we know that 'Unto us a Child was born,' and peace and good will reign all over the land. Let peace Und good will be in your heart, and from you they will go and spread all over the land. It is to the wom en, thank God, that the happiness of the Christmastide specially comes. And wom en are generous, else one of them never vrnnM h.v irftAti hp Rati tn Hln fhnf nil might live. 8he gave to all the world her ! only Son the gift that meant eternal life." Mistletoe and Christmas. ' The connection of mistletoe with Christ mas is a very curious one, and far from being a general one. Literature is, per haps, mainly responsible tor it, In that allusions to a custom in a great degree purely local have made a targe number of persons Interested tn the plant. It, moreover, seems that the custom of using it Iu Christmas decorations depends on two considerations Brat, Its evergreen habit; and second, the veneration in which it was held by the Druids. The reasons mentioned have no doubt done much to secure for the mistletoe the place which In recent times it has held in Christmas festivities, but it is not so uni versally honored at Yuletide-as the holly. V- .. kn m n. ........ ,U,I, without stir mistletoe at all. hut to the majority of the people a Christmas with out a sprig or two of holly would scarcely seem to be Christmas at all. Lord of Misrule. Down to the reign of Henry VIII., and occasionally since, a "Lord of Misrule" was appointed to direct the amusements of the English court during the holidays. He presided over the festivities, prepared the games, directed the sports, and saw that the court was kept properly amused during Christmas week. The office was considered highly honorable, and the "Lord of Misrule" was generally some wealthy nobleman who was willing to spend money lavishly in promoting the gaieties of the court. It Is of record that during the reign of Elizabeth, Essex, as "Lord of Misrule," spent In one Christ mas season 3,000 of his own money on the court games. ' ; Yule Cakes, -. , Yule dongh, a kind of baby or little image intended to represent the child Je sus, made of paste, was formerly baked at Christmas and presented by bakers to their customer "in the same manner as the chandlers gave candles." They are still called Yule cake in the county of Durham, England. A Feast In Prospect. Wiggles How are you fixed for Chris' mas? Waggles Right In clover.

XCxpnrt of Hailed Fish. Japan has become a now customer for the fish of the Northwest, and last year 1,400 tons of suited fish was shipped from tho Noith Pacific, coast. The Nippon Trading Company of Seattle has gone aotlvuly Into the business of shipping salt fish, and buy in all the porta ol the Sound and British Colum bia. This year they are shipping over 600 tons, and have orders for more if they could . gut the fish. Scuttle shipped out 80U tons lust year and 'XV coma shipped the same amount, while about 600 tons wub bought and shipped from the JFraaer river. There are be sides the Nippon Company, which is made up of local Japanese business men, three or four othui firms there engaged in exporting fish. The North Japan fishing industiy Is running out and her people are looking this way for a supply, the same as they are looking to this coast for flour and other natural product. Advance In Price ef Fish. At Seattle the price of salmon has advanced from 10 cents per pound to 15 cents per pound in the last few days, the oanse being assigned to the closing of the season and consequent scarcity of fish. The demand for fish iu general is reported to be better than has been the case for some time, Bteel head salmon are beginning to run and the Tyee variety is expeoted in a few weeks, but as yet the run is rather short. Good fishing is reported in the Narrows; few miles from Tiicoma, and the run is expected to continue there until January I. The .catch now is said to be about 13,000 salmon daily, of the dog salmon variety. A tan her ring were captured at Quartermaster harbor on Saturday and it is said that they were the forerunners of the regu lar season' run. Favors San Dlega, After viewing all the ports on the Paciflo Dr. Weigand, general manager of the North German Lloyd Company, which ha in contemplation the opera tion of a steamer line from this coast to the Orient, is repotted by the Ean Francisco papers to be on hi way home by way of Hong Kong and Sue canal. As many of the stockholders of tha company 'are interested in Northern Pacific securities, Tacoma wa consid ered to have an excellent chance to be chosen as a terminus. It now seems that the Santa Fe Railroad Company having interested the Australian gov ernment in theadavntagesof San Diego harbor for a trans-Paciilo mail route, the steamship company is inclined to favor the Southern California port, Honolulu Taking Our Flonr, R. t Lillie, the purchasing agent on the Pacific coast for the firm of Theo dore H. Davis & Co., of Honolulu, is in the Northwest.. Mr. Lillie will load a vessel at Seattle with flour and other Northwestern product for ship ment to the islands. The short grain crop in California last year has turned the greater portion of the trans-Pacific demand to Oregon and Washington. Portland and Washington flonr cargoes have been discbarigng in San Francisco for a number of week past, and then reshipped by the California to Hono lulu. It is likely, therefore, that the present engagement of flour by Mr. Little for Honolulu will be but one of many similar engagements. New Floor Mill Kooning. William Kirkland, with Call and Bismark Sholl, have completed their flour mill in Walla Walla, and it ha been tinning out flour since Saturday, November 26.
