For the Enquirer-Sun.
The approach of Christmas brings every
husband and every wife face to face with
the problem, “What presents shall I give?”
Of course, there are certain presents,
which, so to speak, seleot themselves.
Slippers should always be given to the
•1 orgy man, for if there is anything tor
which his soul hungein it is for forty pairs
of slippers, none of which he can either
wear on his own feet or apply to the giv
ers. The youngest child of the family
must also have a napkin-ring, it being the
chief desire of every infant to keep his
napkin neat and in order. The selection
of all other presents is, however, wcuri-
ness to the flesh land exasperation to the
spirit, and a few words of advice to givers
ought to be productive of much good.
Wives should aim not merely to give
their husbands acceptable gifts, but to
practice a wise economy in buying such
gifts. They will thus cam the respect and
admiration as well as the gratitude of their
husbands. If a husband smokes cigars—
as the chances are that ho does—his wife
cannot do better than to give him a box of
cigars. There are many nice little Bliops
where she can buy a box of cigars for two
dollars which will look just as nice as those
for which her husband foolishly pays fif
teen dollars. In fact, the box itself will
be even prettier than the boxes which her
injudicious husband brings home, lor it
will be strongly made and nicely varnish
ed. The husband who would not feci
grateful for such a present as this would
be a cold hearted wretch. There was a
man who was presented, last Christmas,
with a box of two dollar cigars by his de
voted wife, and he was so delighted that
he made a solemn vow never to smoke
them, but to keep them on his study table
to remind him of the priceless treasure of
affection and economy that he possessed
in his wife. To this day those cigars re
main unsmoked with the exception of one,
which was stolen and smoked by the dis
trict telegraph boy, who died in great ago
ny two hours later; not, however, before
he had repented of bis sacriligious act and
admitted that his punishment was just.
Husbands who smoke pipes should be
presented with meerschaum pipes. These
can be bought for twenty-five cents, and
wives ought to know this fact, so that they
can properly estimate the foolish extrava
gance of men who pay ten dollars for
pipes that are in no respect nrettier than
the twenty-live cent meerschaums. Am- ,
ber mouth-pieces and cigar-holders can !
also be bought for -.bout the same price, i
and even if they are made of imitation l
amber they look just as well ns the ridicu
lously expensive articles. It is especially
proper to give these pipes and cigar hold
ers to husbands whose lives are insured.
The reason is a legal one, and would riot
be undei'stood by women were it to be ex-
S lained to them. They may rest assured,
owever, that the larger the amount for
which any husband’s life is insured the
wiser it will be to give him a twenty tive-
oent meerschaum pipe with an umber
mouth-piece.
For brothers there is no more accepta
ble present than arctic overshoes. If any
lady has a young and handsome brother
who is rather proud of his personal appear
ance let her hasten to buy him a pair ot'
“arctics.” She should remember that
“urotics” cannot be too large, und to
avoid the possibility of a mistake, she had
better get the largest pair she can find. If
she personally appeals to her brother to
wear the overshoes for her sake, and begH
him to let her know if they pinch his feet,
she will do more than she imagines in the
way of promoting harmony and strength
ening fraternal atfec'.iou.
It is the opinion of book publishers that
books make the best presents. There is
some degree of truth in tlvis, but the books
should be selected with great care. Ladies
are for the most part unaware ihat a se
ries of works of immense interest to
thoughtful men has been published by the
United States government, with the view
of supplying the people with wholesome
literature, i'his series is entitled '‘Patent
Oflice Reports,” and ouch volume is sold
separately. There are few presents that
a thoughtful and cultured man would ap
preciate more thoroughly than one or two
volumes of the patent office series. T here
is nothing in these books that could do the
slightest harm. They are free from infi
delity, Alormonism, horses, or anything
that could lead the weakest husband
astray. When it is added that they are
sold at a very low price, their pre-eminent
fitness for Christmas presents needs no
further emphasis.
Of course the most acceptable present
that a man can make to his wife is a new
bonnet. Many men, however, are afraid
to buy bonnets on account of the cost. In
point of fact, a bonnet cun be bought rid
iculously cheap at certain shops, and it is
mere nonsense to pay fifty dollars to a
fashionable bonnet-maker. The astute
husband can buy a beautiful bonnet, trim
med with blue, red, green and yeliow rib
bons, and ornamented with a large and
beautiful chicken’s wing, for a dollar and
a half. Let him have a ticket marked fli
attached to the bonnet and then present it
to his wife with a neat little speech. She
will be overwhelmed with delight and will
never for a moment doubt that the present
was bought at a fashionable shop and cost
|47. Indeed, her gratitude to her husband
will probably greatly astonish him.

Chicago Herald.
It is a very good story which genial
'reasurer Prior, of the Chicago opera
louse, tolls about a young man of bis ac
quaintance. The young man, it seems, it
:ood-looking, of nice lamily, and a good
leal of a favorite with the ladies. Hut he
a altogether too fond of a little red liquor,
leatly trimmed with lemon and
nd served in cut gluss—so loud, indeed,
hat some of the more careful girls nave
f late fought shy of his escort to places oi
musement. One day last week he united
young lady living on Indiana avenue to
o and see ‘‘One of Our Oiris. She wante
o see the plav. and, the truth is, rather
iked Toni-we will call the young man
'om for short—but she hesitated about ac-
epting the invitation. Her fWenaa ad-
ised her to decline, and warned her that
P she accepted Tom would leave her alone
few minutes after every act while he was
ut interviewing the nearest barkeeper.
“Oh, no, he would do that,” said the
oung lady. , .
“Yes, but he would,” the advisers re
lied; “he took Em Johnson week before
ist and went out three times and came in
hewing cloves and coffee, and Em was so
lortifled that she says—”
“Hut he wouldn’t leave me alone in the
heater, I know,” the young lady retorted,
oufidently, and to prove it I win accept
is invitation.”

The flirt ofTo-Dnj.
Castroville (Texas) Anvil.
If there is anything we know less about
than we think we do, it is the girl; and of
this the girl is glad, for there is nothingshe
hates to be known about her so bad aa the
truth.
Wo have been acquainted with her for a
long time, and watched tier pranks from
afar; seen her cut the “pigeon wing” and
knock the “back step” m the back yard,
when she thought she had no spectator;
but still we don’t know her.
From the time she is big enough to
swing on the gate and tie a ribbon in a
double bow-knot, she begins to locate a
sweetheart, and she keeps this up until
he is located in the back yard, exercising
1ns talents dissecting stove wood.
She may be a little dull on mathematics,
but invariably solves the problem of pub-
ting a No. 6 loot in a No. 3 shoe.
She will wear out two old dresses run
ning around to find out how to make a new
one in the latest style.
She will break 'the point off her broth
er’s knife making a crack to peep at
stranger’s when they come visiting.
She will greet you with the most be
witching smile, and laugh at your stupid
ness when you are gone.
She will walk three blocks out of the
way to get a peep at lier lioau, and the.n
pass by without looking at him.
She will talk with you two hours with
out being aide to repeat a word you have
said, but wii) know how long you have
worn your duds and how many buttons
have iost their grip.
She will attend church, listen with ab
sorbed interest to eloquent and pathetic
sermons, then return home and expatiate
on the horrible fit of Miss Senow’s new
basque.
She will go to table, mince over delica
cies with the most fastidious taste, then
slip back in the kitchen anil eat a raw po
tato.
She will w ear out her best pair of shoes
dancing ail day, then attend a ball at
night and complain of being out of prac
tice.
She will spend ail night writing a care
fully worded letter, in tile most precise
hand, to her Simon Suggs, then scratch off
a page to her sister that Old Harry could
not read.
She will be the most devout creature on
earth, and hate the earth that Sallie
Grimes walks on.
She will be industrious und economical
for a month then spend her savings for a
red ribbon.
She will slouch around the house for a
week making preparations to look neat
on Sunday.
Silo will flirt, with all the best young
mer. in the neighborhood, and finally mar
ry some knotty-beaded Jim Crow.
Old IViiraenV Whispers.
If on going out of the house you forget
something you must under no circum
stances turn back if you can possibly avoid
it; if you do you must at any rate sit down
a moment before going out again.
If the first person you meet is an old wo
man it is a sign of coming misfortune,
while, on the contrary, a funeral proces
sion denotes good fortune.
Pigs to your left bring good luck,to your
right the opposite; to avert which, grasp
something made of steel and the spell will
be broke u.
If on setting out on a journey you meet
a sow and pigs your enterprise will be sure
to be successful.
To meet two magpies portends mar
riage; three, a successful journey; four, un
expected good news.
To see one magpie and then more is
unlucky; to kill ooe of these birds is irre
trievable misfortune. lr. is also unlucky to
kill a swallow.
If your left hand itches you will take
in money; if the right, you will pay it
out.
A ringing in the right ear means that
some one is speaking well of you; in the
lefc, you may be sure that evil toag les are
busy with you.
If your right eye itches you will see
some beautilul sight; if the left, you will
have cause to shod tears.
If your nose itches .you will bear sonic
news or—will fail into the mire.
A cold of unusual severity which I took
last autumn developed into a difficulty de
cidedly catarrhal in all its characteristics,
threatening a return of my old chronic
malady, catarrh. One bottle of Ely s
Cream Baltii completely eradicated every
svmpton of that painful and prevailing
disorder.—R. W. Warner, 105 Hudson
street, Rochester, N. Y.
Ely’s Cream Balm is the best medicine
for Catarrh I have ever used.—-Mrs. O.
