4. CHRISTMAS IS COMING.

Selling Christmas Articles.
' 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 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

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 ? "

WE ARE INTRODUCING A NEW FUEL TO LA GRANDE
PEOPLE IN THE FORM OF DIAMOND BRIQUETS
It's an interesting story about Diamond Briquets; vitally interesting to you and your pocket-book.
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.
You can prove all this true by letting us put you in a trial order.
