He'll whiff the scent of bacon bought at 30 cents a pound, and plain potatoes by the box with tissue wrapped around; and every time we chase him off and bid him to his den, the trusts will pump his stomach out and sic him on again. The uneraanclpated wife will quit her cozy bed and build the fire the while her lord pretends that he is dead. She'll wrap herself up in her hair and shiver in the dawn, and chop the kindling, hustle coal and turn the damper on; and while she freezes till she turns the hue of a persimmon, the scientists will won der why the men outlive the women. Milady's winter suit will cost A fifty-dollar note, But man will face the blizzard in The same old overcoat. The" cook will gasoline the fire, And the choir, in sweet accord Will sing on Sunday at the house, "O, I am coming, Lord!" On the 21st the sun will enter Capricorn, and the winter solstice will occur. This will cause trusts to spawn, and the yule tide will come in. Solstice Is from sol (the sun) and sistere (to stand). Thus, hav ing touched Its turning point south of the equator, the sun temporarily stands still. This was where Joshua held it up, from which we have our word Josh.

All the big lion hunters of the world will attend, and there will be a roaring contest, witn ravors. me pass word for this month is supplied by the Kaiser William. Mum is the word. The moon will be full on the 7th, and there will be bad weather around 26 Broadway every day but Sunday. ' The mistletoe will tempt the maid Beneath the chandelier. The loving swain will bait and start Betwixt his love and fear, And then dash in with beating heart And chew her blushing ear. The birthstone for December Is the onyx. This Is because children are onyxpected at a time when the stark has to make his deliveries in a fire less cooker. Then Leap Year will have run its course With little to its merit, And the spinster who has missed her chance Will have to buy a parrot. C. H. RIETH.
