As It slowly mounted higher, the man in the moon looked down to see what people were going to get for Christmas. A lovely rainbow grew so interested, too, that it gathered in a beautiful circle around the moon and sailed up the sky with It, thinking of all the happy time below. Then a moonbeam fell upon the face of Tim Purdy, ns he lay sleeping near his window, and was changed into a smile as It got Into his dream. He thought he saw the very thing that he had wanted so much and so long, coming down to l\Iiu through the air. As the moonbeam stayed until it awoke him, and as he looked up and saw the eelered hale that crewned the mesa's head, he exclaimed: “What a purity rainbow! Faith I think it means good luck for me!” He was right. It did. In the mera- ing he found that some good fairy had found ont and brought the very thing that ho wanted.— C. 6. Hazard. (#. 1911.

The Boar's Head. The eld Christmas dishes were. of ceurse, largely determined by the feed mnterlul available for the Christmas board. The existence of thousands of wild boar* in the woods made boar hunting one of the national sports, and the boar's head with Its concomitant brawn, one of the most popular among Christmas dishes. The old custom ef serving up this ancient dish at Queen's college, Oxford, is associated with a legend to the effect that in olden days one of the students, when attacked by one of these wild denizens of the woods, saved himself from Its Jaws by thrusting his Greek lexicon down Its throat, with the ejaculation, “Grne- cum est” (It is Greek). Of course the beast was choked, the "choking” pos sibilities of such a dry-as-dust volume being generally understood. HER LESSER HALF. Come into th’ next room, read er. Y'see we was right.

As It hardens mark Into squares. are extended. Year by year its sunshine is shed upon more of the earth’s Inhabitants. This does not necessarily mean the gains of the Christian religion, for Christmas is wider than Christianity. The day of the coming of Jesus Is cherished by many millions who have no connection with Christian churches or the faith they profess. The holiday is dear to all who live In lands where Christians are most numerous. It wins the devotion of little children and holds their affection ns they grow older. For multitudes Its observance is not in any sense a rite of belief, but a manifestation of rejoicing In the love of fellow-dwellers in a world which at best has too little of the sunshine of kindness and affection. There Is no reason to fear that this growth of Christmas will cease. There is nothing to indicate that It will over ■ 'll to widen the realm of bright l-"Mes and radiant thoughts, shining ' Idren's eyes and smiling older faces. v hen v. liter days are briefest and darkest, in the more populous half of thc earth, and nature leaves most for man to do, In making the world cheer- j lul and life worth while.—Cleveland News-Leader.
