Don't guess at' the postage and give your friends the pleasure of paying postage due." Don't plaster Bed Cross stamps on the face of packages or letters; take care not to "seal" parcel post packages with them. It raises the rate. Don't forget that a little thoughtful ness1 on your part can help to make Chrlstmns happier for Uncle Sam's men, his horses and bis automobiles. Do mall early, preferably before De cember 20th, writing on your pack ages: "Not to be opened until Chrlstmns." Do your best to use the post offices In the forenoon, the earlier the better. Do write legibly, both the address to which you are sending the gift and your own return address. Do be courteous and "Christmassy" to the post office men who serve yon. They are handling thousands of pieces of mall matter. Do be brief at the counter. Ton keep someone else wailing if you are loaded like an express truck, with packages and foolish questions. THINGS THE BOYS LONG FOR Youngsters Prefer Toys or Contriv- ances to Test Their Muscular Skill or Endurance. lit HAT shall be said of that blun Yt derlng kindness of home folk thnt considers giving the boy only presents of such things as he actu ally needs? IU is an outrage upon the spirit of Christmas to present him with iipw shoes, ties, handkerchiefs something that he knows he will get anyway when his sleeping and wak ing dreams for weeks before have been filled with visions of tops, balls, guns nnd magic lanterns, says Maud Sou lier's In the Woman's Home Compan ion. The most beautiful knitted muf fler woman's fingers ever constructed cannot compare' with a Jack-knife with four blades and a cork-screw attach- cnt, when exhibited over the bnck fence to a neighbor boy on Christmas morning. Very soon after the days of kilts a boy reaches the age when he yearns with his whole soul after any toy or contrivance that will test his muscular skill or endurance. At this age an appropriate present would be a rawhide or rope lnrlat, such as Is used by the Buffnlo Bill riders. A pnlr of hand or arm stilts will be re ceived with equal favor, and In the same category comes a new fishing rod, snow shoes'; tennis racket, golf clubs, a good ball, lump or cyclometer fur his Tvheol, or even a live pet, a new dog, a pair of rabbits or guinea pigs something that he can "pet and train for his own. Funny Christmas Habit. There is not a drug store, cigar shop or barroom In the larger cities which has not been made the storage room for Christmas presents bought before the rush sets In. The strange part of It Is that every man who utilizes the friendship of his favorite place round the coiner thinks he Is the only one who thought of the plan. Itcallzlng that the stores will be crowded, many far-sighted bonds of families bought their presents a week in advance, and then, fearing the unturc of the myste rious package would be discovered nt the office or nt borne, they hit upon tile device of making a cache In some re sort nenr home. gSpA ANNUALLY Toys for little Willie, Something for the cook; Make, with forty other things The empty pocketbook. Plants for Christmas. Other things being equal, it Is bet ter to buy plants nenr one's home than to travel afar. Do not bo tempted, even by cheap offers, to go miles away, for counting car fares, packing. Christmas In Days ef Yore. There ar- ninny old and stately cere monies and many histnrleni events connected w Itb Christmas that are Traditions of Christmas Festival. j In the r.-cords of every nation we find traditions of the Christmas fe:l i val, traditions which have been h.iud i ed down from g-neration to genera- Hon In oft-told talcs which thrilled I the hearts of the listeners w4th al- ternate fear and delight.
