WHEN any uncertainty exists let us give a token of love, or friendship, or human kindness, some thing that, while expressing these things will, at least, be harmless. Let It he something that does not Inst — thet brings the meaning and vanishes —something that never will know the Indignity of the top shelf of the spare room closet! A knock at a friend's door on Christmas morning and the clasp of a hand do this. A growing plant does It —hut, most of all, thou beside tee. singing in the wilderness —the |>er.sonal revelation does It. Suppose a letter came on Christmas mo'-niiig, to say— not “you are perfectly dear to have sent me a spool box.” but “I want you to know that your patience, or cour age, or tenderness, during this last year, will help me to live more brave ly and courageously and lovingly tills next year!” What a Christmas pres ent (lie receipt of such a letter would be to any one of us! What a Christinas present for any one of us to send to tlie human heart that has given us cobrage for the burden and heat of the day!—lndianapolis News. Her Christmas Dolly |ff| AFRAID OF SANTA Black Tots at African Mission Make for Piace of Safety. Presenta of Apparel and Sweets Ering Confidence to the Men, Women and Kiddies. AN AMUSING story of how Santa Claus frightened the black chil dren at a mission station when he first appeared to them a few years ago. Is told by the wife of a mission ary stationed at Builunda, Africa. They had celebrated Christmas at Bnl lundu before, but they never bad had Santa Claus; so Mr. Stover, the mis sionary, dressed up as good Saint Nick. “He had been padded and powdered and packed until his own mother would not have known him.” Mrs. Stover afterward related. "Presently we gave the signal, the door flew open and in walked Santa Claus. But, dear me! What consternation! He was greeted with shrieks and groans and cries of ‘Let me out! It is the evil one. It is the day of Judgment!' “The urchins, catching tlit* infec tion of terror from the older black people, fled to their bedrooms, fell down upon their faces, crept under chairs and tables —anywhere to hide themselves. Poor old Santa Claus never had such a greeting before. As soon as he realized the panic he had ■Bused, he tore off his 'all hat and vhtte cotton heard. Then from the •ags on his back he began to throw gifts right and left and to tell who lie was. “Reassured once more, everyone vas soon laughing and chatting, iiunching the great ‘red breads' (doughnuts), tastiug their fruits or nibbling at the sweets from the fa miliar little bags. One man wondered which end up he was to hold the fork Santa Claus had given him. Another immediately tried on his new shirt. The girls arranged their bright-hued handkerchiefs into turbans, while others sought to find some place about their scanty clothing where they could stow away their bunch of bread, as well as the paper of needles and cake of soap given to each. “It seemed as though everyone tried to talk louder than his neighbor as they examined the costume of Santa Claus, whom they now no longer feared. One man said that he thought It was John the Baptist; another that It was Elijah returned. Yet another thought it was Satan himself. Hanging Pictures. In hanging pictures don’t “sky them."
