Christmas Ohl and New.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton has drawn n
picture of an old fashioned Christmas
that makes ono’s month water. Perhaps
it brings a suspicious moisture around
the eyes of old time» too. Certain it b
that only in the farm districts can any
thing like such a Christmas bo enjoyed
now as that pictured by Mrsi Stanton.
Among the retainers of her family was
* gigantic cook and serving man, coal
black, named Peter. Peter sung tenor,
flayed the violin and made tho sum of
the children’s happiness at Christmas.
They had a dance in a great basement
kitchen on Christmas eve. Thcro Peter
played for them. Then they hung up
their stockings and went to bed. In tho
morning beforo daylight they darted
town into tho basement kitchen, bare
foot, to sco what Santa Claus had
brought them. Tho gifts woro simple;
they were inexpensive. A modern city
child would Bcoru them. Yet happiness,
joy, danced all day in the hearts of
those rosy, healthy country children.
Peter always took them for a great
sleigh rido in a long old lumber sled.
Mrs. Stanton is now 80 yoars old, yet
tho recollection of those rides remains
as ono of the shining spots in her mem
ory. And now, alas, tho times! "Christ
mas and wedding prescuts and dowers at
funerals have come to bo a tax and nui-
sanco in their estravaganco and ex
cess. ” So they have. Women work
themselves into a nervous illness strain
ing to mako and buy gifts for their
acquaintances. Men with families aro
taxed so hoavily that it takes months
to recover from the drain.
It is time we reformed Christmas giv
ing. This holy and heavenly day ought
to bo mado sacred to children because
it is the Christ child’s day. They should
bo mado perfectly happy from morning
till night in all reasonable ways that
their parents and friends can devisa
Presents should indeed be given to them,
but not extravagant dolls and toys un
less their parents aro very rich. Games,
rides and juvenilo parties will mako
them happier than expensivo gifts.
As to grown people, Christmas will
bo more honored by their coasing to
give presents to ono another altogether
than by their striving togivowhat they
cannot afford. Women especially ought
to stop boring their eyes out and sew
ing themselves into a hysterical stato
making things which half tho timo aro
of no good to anybody after they aro
dona Christ camo into tho world to
save sinners, not to mako people bank
rupt themselves in purso and health
making Christmas gifts.
If, by mutual consent, grown peoplo
could stop giving ono another gifts at
Christmas or ceaso to expect them, wo
should all bo better off. A gift should
be offered for tho mere joy it confers on
the giver. Lot us measuro our outlay
for tho holiday season by that test, then
send pretty and inexpensive Christmas
cards to our friends to show them wo
love them still.
Of course, if one is a millionaire and
is spasmodically seized with remorse
for getting so much richer than bis fel
low mon, then by all means lot him case
his conscience by giving gifts to thoso
whom ho can help. To such it will bo
pleasant to road what George W. Childs
said about Christmas giving:
There is an epidemic of glanders in
Los Angeles.
Contracts have been awarded for con
structing a fruit cannery at Gridley.
A terrific blizzard swept the Missis
sippi and Missouri valleys early in the
week.
The Teachers’ institute of Santa Clara
county held a three days’ session at San
Jose this week.
A Great Northern freight train was
wrecked near the Columbia river. No
lives were lost.
The Fifty-fourth congress met at noon
Tuesday. Thomas B. Reed of Malno
was elected speaker by the Republicans.
The land company and settlers along
the Mojave river are in dispute over
the right to use water of the company
for irrigation purposes.
Secret service officers have discov
ered that a number of farmers in Sher
man county. Neb., have been making
whisky from sugar Leets.
John J. Quinn, Peter Maher's man
ager, says he is ready and anxious to
content Fitzsimmons’ claims to middle
weight and heavy-weight champion
ships.
Judge Minor of Modesto, Cal., has
decided that national bank stock is tax
able and like other property must stand
the burden of supporting the govern
ment.
J. E. Alpaugh, secretary of the Dal
las County (Ia.) Abstract company, is
under arrest for forgery. He had se
cured about $13,000 from the Perry
bank on forged mortgages.
The eighth annual convention of the
Transmississippi Commercial congress
is in session at Omaha. The attend
ance is large. One of tho .principal sub
jects to be taken up is discrimination
in freight rates in the West.
A Chicago paper says the Florida
orange crop will not exceed 100,000
boxes this season. Two years ago 6,-
000,000 boxes were harvested. FrostB
of last winter ruined the orange or
chards and it will be from five to seven
years before the Florida growers will
get on their feet.
President Havemeyer of the Ameri
can Sugar Refining company at New
York does not expect to see auy ad
vance in the prices of refined sugar on
account of the destructive work in tho
Cuban plantations. “The visible sup
ply of raw sugar in the world at tho
present time,” says Havemeyer, “is
600,000 tons more than it was at the
same time a year ago."____

A CURIOSITY OF LUNACY.
Periodic Recurrence of Mauio, by Which
the Patient Uvee Three Lives.
Them is a special form of montai dis-
easo first described in Franco, whose
definite character is given to it by its
periodicity, and benco it is called folie-
circulaire. In it there aro threo sections
of the montai circlo that the patient
moves in—viz, elevation, depression and
sanity—and in-this round ho spends his
lifo, passing out of one iuto the other,
for it is, when fully established, a very
incurable disoasa
The patient takes an attack of mania,
during which ho is joyous, restless,
troublesome, extravagant and often
vicious. Ho cats voraciously, sleeps lit
tle and never seems to tiro. His tem
perature is a degree or so above tho nor
mal, his oyo is bright and glistening,
he is enamored of the other sex, bo
shows diminished self control and no
common sense.
This lasts for a few weeks, or a few
months more commonly, and then he
passes sometimes gradually and some
times rather suddenly into a condition
of depression, during which he is slug
gish, dull, looking differently, dressing
differently, euting differently, fearful,
unreliant and sedentary in habits.
This state will last a few weeks or
months, and tho patient will brighten
up into what seems recovery and is to
all intents and purposes in his normal
state. This again lasts for a few weeks
or montile, and ho gradually gets mor
bidly elevated. You find ho is passing I
through ovary minuto mental phase and
habit he did at first. Depression follows,
as before, and then sanity, and this
round of three states of feeling, of intel
lect, of volition, and of nutrition, goes

New Hampshire. Mrs. Sara Ela of Chi
