DON'T suppose two noses
were ever pressed more for
lornly n gainst n window-

to Jerry and Sally. If yon
were to look at them from

would not seem like noses

The age period that is most llkelj
to contract the disease Is from I

Passive Immunity can be obtained
by giving a small dose of Antitoxin
The Immunity so Induced is very In
definite nnd short, possibly 3 to I
weeks. It is not tho best procedure
though it Is often used. The Stat<

SfclcCy Business Proposition
II la n true statement, "health is
’wealth." The statement does -ol
need argument. How people can af
ford to let their rapifal stock ho
slowly absorbed and finally awake to
find themselves bankrupt is passing
strange. Good business men will not
do so where finances arc involved,
they will look carefully after their
monthly, weekly and dally statements;
they will keep in close touch with
the buying and selling ends; they will
see that the credit man does Ills part
and that the hills are promptly paid
or know the reason why. Yet, it is
passing strange that these same men,
nnd in fact, ail men and women, neg
lect the greatest single asset in their
business. It is strange that men of
intelligence, men of common sense,
men of judgment, will for u day neg
lect their bodies and allow disease to
gradually grow and undermine their
physical being. All business must and
does depend upon the people; without
the people there would be no business.
There Would be no sound business
without some healthy people. If the
country, the men and women, who
make up tho world/ are in poor health,
general business must suffer just that
much. If they are not well enough
to produce normally all things that
go towards this world's needs, then
there must needs be a lack. If any
part of a community is sick, not only
the one who is sick is affected, but
his neighbors are not in as good
shape as they would be if he were
well. If in the course .of business
someone fails to meet his obligations
and his creditor has to take this in
dividual loss, he subtracts just that
much from the balance of profit. It
Is just so If one, whether he he a
producer or not, subtracts from the
health of the community; the profit
as a whole has been lowered.
The individual should have at least
one complete examination a year, and
he should scrupulously observe the or
ders of his physician. The community
needs constant care for the reason
that it is made up of many individuals.
The public health is the most essen
tial of all things to the progress of
the people, the community, the coun
ty, the state, the nation, it matters not
what it costs in money; it cannot he
estimated in dollars and cents, yet it
can be cheaply bought.
A full-time health officer under the
Ellis Health Law can be employed at
a most reasonable figure. The health
unit can be made extensive or limited
as you wish, but in any size it is
well worth while. It Is perhaps the
best' form of health work known. The
very best financial investment. The
greatest trouble at the present time
is to get men who ape adapted anc
qualified for the worn. The field of
preventive medicine is so different
from the care of the disease that it is
hard to find men qualified and adopt
ed to the care of the community as a
whole; men who are fitted for the
work are in demand.
It la indeed and in truth fine busk
ness' to buy futures in fine, robust
health.

for the moment, It Is merely a holiday
In which they wish to give gifts to per
sons they care for nnd whom they wish
to please. It Is a period in which they
forget themselves in order to give Joy
to others.
In this one thing, though they may
not be aware of it. .they demonstrate N
the teaching of the. One whose day
they observe, for unselfish thought for
others is^one of the great lessons
taught by the Teacher of teachers who
was horn in Bethlehem of Judea cen- -
turies ngo. There are Chr’ unas givers
today who make no sacrlfi e when they
purchase rich gifts for family or
friends; they know no self-denial,
though it does not follow that they do
not give all their hearts. But with the
great niqss of givers there Is a setting
aside of personal wishes nnd even ur
gent needs In order that those they
love may be glad on that day of the
year when nil the Christian world re
joices. The self-sacrifice is as nothing
compared to the end to he attained.
On the other hand, a multitude of
men and women n’*e r;drit::a’ly aware
of the character of the day. They look
back across the centuries to the Child
in the manger and see In it the dawn
of a new hope to mankind, a revela
tion’ of n new life, 11 bond between mor
tal existence and the hereafter that
has given comfort to myriads and a
light to the world that grows brighter
with the passing of the ages. The gifts
that they bestow und those they re
ceive typify to them the greatest of all
gifts to the world—the Ono who cam©
to point tlie way to eternal life. t
No, Christinas for all its seeming
frivolity nnd thoughtlessness Is not a
mere holiday lllje others. Even the
light-minded and heedless ones realize
a difference, and if pushed to explain
would do so reverently. Under all the
hurry and confusion and gayety of the
preparations and tlie celebration the
significance of Christmas is not lost.

late afternoon and growing a little
dark.
Suddenly Sally’s pigtails stuck out,
straight behind her In surprise.
“What’s that?" she whispered, and
her eyes were big as saucers.
"Where?” asked Jerry, a little star
tled too.
“I saw something white flit in at the
Ooor!’’
"So did I.”
The children looked cautiously
ground. Nothing was to be seen.
Just an ordinary room, a bright fire
and two children In front of It.
“Fuhny—" mused Sally.
There was the faintest rustle by tie
clock on the mantel. It sonnded like
snowflnkes talking together.
"There! I heard something again P
said Sally.
Both children stared at the clock,
for that was where the sound came
from.
It was gulte dnrk by this time, ex
cept for the light from the logs, so It
was natural that Jerry and Solly did
not at first see the little person
perched on the edge of the mantel.
"How do you do?" asked a tiny
voice. It tinkled like a fuiry sleigh-
bell.
"Mercy I" exclaimed Sally. s
Jerry just winked lils*eyes very fast.
"Here I am up by the clock," tinkled
the voice again.
And sure enough, therp she was In
deed! The children saw her now. A
■wee, slender bit of a thing about the
size of a sweet pea. And she was the
whitest creature you could imagine.
Snowflake rutiles with crystal trim
ming, icicle Jewels in her hair, and
ew»s bright and frosty as stars.

gurgle! He forgot all about that tooth
that was making so much fuss about
coming through. 1 left him kicking up
his heels and crowing like a young
rooster.”
Sally and Jerry lnughed.
“Shall I dance for you?" asked the
Snow Fairy politely.
"Oh, yes!” beseeched the children.
Up Jumped ®he white little person,
and In the twinkling of an eye she had
begun. The children never saw such
dancing In their lives. Never!
The Snow Fairy pirouetted on top
of the clock ; she whirle<J like a crystal
f>rism. She jumped down nnd made a
low bow to a -china shepherdess, nnd
■then the shepherdess threw away her
‘crook and danced with the fairy. Away
tlwy went, whirling und bobbing and
:tu7uing and dipping. They Jumped
iover vases; they peeked out behind
•pictures, they fairly Hew through the
air until you could not tell which was
the Snow Fuiry and which the china
shepherdess.
Jerry and Solly clapped their hands
and laughed until they could laugh no
longer. They forgot. ail about purtles
and new slippers and making snow
men.
Then the strangest thing happened
They could not see the Snow Fairy at
all. She wasn’t Utere, and if you’ll
believe me. the china shepherdess was
standing stiffly 'in her old spot as
though she’d never had a thought of
moving Jn her life.
"Dear me!" said Sally rubbing her
eyes.
"Dear me!” said Jerry, rubbing his.
Mother came In soon after that'. She
stood smiling down upon them.
"Both you children were sound
asleep on your stools when I was In
h6re before. Do come and have some
thing good to eat. I have a little party
all ready for you.”
And Sally and Jerry never said a
word about the Snow Fnlryr But they
were as cheerful as cherubs the rest
of the day.
HE mistletoe season draws
near. Many houghs or
pendants of this mysterious
@ ^ and beautiful plant will he
torn fnlm oaks and other
trees and suspended from chandeliers
and doors.
Many myths are associated with
the mistletoe. The Druids of Britain
looked upon It as a holy thing. To
them the oak tree had a strong relig
ious significance and seeing the curi
ous plant growing out of the oak they
conceived that It was the spirit or
the sojil of that tree. In this way
It is believed that the Druids came to
regard the mistletoe as the symbol of
life and they therefore treated It with
manifest reverence and gave It a
prominent place In their religious
rites. It Is also believed that the Dru
ids held the mistletoe as sacred to
Frayn, tho goddess of love, und that
lids Is how It came to he associated
with love-making and kissing. <
The old herbalists, the forerunners
of the physician, regarded the mistle
toe as a thing having remarkable ther
apeutic properties. It was held to he*
good for epilepsy and for vaVious con
vulsive “distempers.” Many of our
British nnd our Irjsh ancestors be
lieved that the mistletoe was u charity
ugainsf disease.
The mistletoe Is a plant parasite
and yei not altogether a parasltfi! 1
Though It would rather live off of the'
tree, it was the means of self-support.’
It fastens Itself upon its host, pene
trates its tissue and draws nourish
ment from It, often deforming it and
sapping its vitality. Yet the mistletoe
is a green, leafy plunt; that is, it pos
sesses the green pigment, chlorophyll,
which gives the green color to norinW
vegetation. The presence of green
leaves indicates that the mistletoe has
the power, which Independent green
plants everywhere possess, of con
structing organic foodstuffs, such as
starch, out of inorganic compounds,,
carbon dioxide and water, utilizing
sunlight as the source of energy in
the process. It is, therefore, only
partly a parasite so far as dependence
upon its host for food is concerned,
but it is none the les3 harmful on that
account.
