' In an article in the December Wom an's Home Companion, a writer says about selling thinpfs one makes: i "Originality is the hall-mark of success, and can be cultivated by ex perimenting. All single experiments that are not successful enough to warrant continuing as a manufactur ing proposition, should be disposed of at a profit, and this may most readily be accomplished at Christmas time through woman's exchanges. While I do not advocate the exclusive use of woman's exchanges as a marketing medium, I do feel that for this pur pose of selling articles in small quan tities they have a value. I "Gifts for children are easily sold. Included under this heading may be put combinations of toys to be used I together; for example, sand sets, gardening sets, or dolls dressmaking sets, each combination being of al ready manufactured articles, bought at wholesale and packed together in clever, interesting receptacles."

In a big armchair In a large New York hotel sat a tall, distinguished looking man. "This Is the best Thanksgiving 1 ever had," he sold, fairly glowing with contentment "It makes me think In contrast of the worst I ever spent I was In La Guayra, Venezuela, sent down by a New York newspaper to wait for a war that never happened. I was forced to spend Thursday there, and the prospect of a dinner at the ho tel there was nauseating. I had been there before, and I knew the meal would be odds and ends floating in grease. With such thoughts In my mind I strolled down the main street of the town. Ahead of me I saw a man, tall, thin, unmistakably Ameri can. He went Into a building. 1 quickened my pace and found It was the American consulate. I rapped.

Nesrlnn the Year's Close, A famous English novelist tells of a hillside Scotcb village with no special beauty, but which once every twenty four hours at the close of day becomes transfigured. The kirk and cot stand bathed In sunset glory. So tho year's doings and happenings, though eoni nionpluce they seem, find their trans figuration. It is when toll is requited, harvests garnered and fireside reun ions are enjoyed nnd memories record God's unfailing goodness In his house. Such transfiguration is Thanksgiving day. Tips For The Farmer Here Is A Tip About Woodpiles. In the November Farm and Fire side, the national farm paper, a writer snys: "During the fall of the year we look over the fruit trees that are dead or require pruning, and the cut pieces suitable for kindling and stovewood are stored in a convenient place. Old fence posts and rails that are of no further use are also piled up for the saw and ax. "During the winter days when a few hours' times can be given to the wood-pile we saw the pieces into the proper length. The kindling wood is then stored in even rows under a shed where it will dry out and be accessible for future use. "Enough wood is sometimes collect ed and cut to hist -two years and we use a quantity of kindling during the summer months in the 'out kitchen.' I find this method of caring for woo an efficient system and, besides, all pieces of lumber that cannot be used for construction are made into kind ling sizes. If the wood is cut and stor ed, waste is thus prevented and odds and ends of lumber do not litter tb farm. "A systematic method of piling aa taking care of the wood is also a help to the busy housewife, and who is there that doesn't appreciate good dry wood near at hand ?

Diamond Briquets are the most satisfactory fuel that ever came into the household. Diamond Briquets are made from the purest, richest portions of the coal. Briquets produce much less smoke and in many cases practically no smoke. A Briquet fire requires much less care than one of raw fuel.
