Those too young to earn money' are given an allowance, and thfs making of daughter an independent factor in the home begins in many instances when she is little more than a baby, and is given every Saturday night her weekly allowance for "helping mother" during the week. Out of this allowance when a child, and later out of the money she earns with her own hands, she buys many lit tle luxuries for the home and for her self. I put "the home” first for the rea soq that a daughter’s generosity is proverbial. When the holidays approach, she gets out her little store, and no one engaged in the great big shopping game at thfs time of the year has a list that is long er. And few, alas! have purses that are much flatter. She is young, and, therefore, has a Up-to-Date Jokes Teacher (reading aloud) —The weary sentinel leaned on his gun and stole a few moments sleep. “I bet I know where he stole it.” “Where, Dot?” "From his ’nap-sack.” “Docs my boy,” inquired the parent, “seem to have a natural bent in any one direction?" "Yes, sir," said the teacher. "fie gives every indication of being a cap tain of industry some day. He gets the other boys to do al! his work for him." Pat had joined the navy, and was being drilled witli his shipmates on a pier. “Pall in!" came the order. Immediately’ Pat fell into the water. “Two deep!” was the next order. Pat (sputtering in the water): “Bad scran to ye! Why didn’t ye tell me it was too deep before I fell in?” It was dinner time and the conversa tion turned to sport. “Did I ever tell you about me brother Tom ginning the cup in the Marathon race?” said Terence to his mate. “One cup—why. that’s nothin’!" said Mike. "My uncle Dennis has cups for swimming and running, medals for wrestling and watches for football." “Bedad, and he must be a great ath lete!” said Terence. “Begorra. and ye're wrong," replied Mike. “He's a pawnbroker." A young man about to get married asked his father how he got on so well witli his wife Tile old man considered for tt moment or two, and then lie said: “It's like this, John.

After she is older she wfll find that many plants she nur tured in her garden of friendship have proven to be weeds, but in the hope fulness of .youth all look in her eyes like buds of rare promise. Home Folks Suffer. Some one must be sacrificed. She can not buy handsome presents for all on hdr list. She puzzles over it with pretty brow deeply furrowed. She would be ashamed to give an inexpen sive present to this friend, or thaV friend, recalling the handsome gifts she received from them last year. No, she can not economize there! There is only one way left! She must economize on what she gives her father and mother! "They," she says, resting secure in a love that knows no criticism, “will un derstand.” So she buys of the best for every so called friend, and with the few pennies left gets mother a back comb, or sub. scribes for a magazine for father which contains the kind of reading she most enjoys. This is a form of Christmas injustice so often practiced that daughters get used to this last-penny- consideration for the two who love them the most, and give these little make-shift, gifts without regrets or a qualm of con science. Then there is another form of Christ mas injustice just as inexcusable. Daughter forgets mother or father is an individual, with personal longings and necessities. She regards the one. ortho other, or both, as “the house.” “The parlor,” she says, “needs a new chair. I will give one to mother and father for Christmas." Sacrifice Others. And there appears in the parlor a chair which adds to its attractiveness for daughter's company. It is not put in father's den where he can sit in it. or in the corner where mother spends her few leisure moments. If it were, then the spirit of Christmas would at tend such a gift and make of the least expensive article the most comfortable and comforting of its kind. But that the gift is for "the house” is obvious. To consider mother as the dining room in urgent need of a new table cloth, or father as the hall crying for a new hatrack is to make of Christ mas a painful joke. If, as daughter argues, "the house" really needs new chairs, table linen or hall furniture, then let her go to her parents and say: “Let me be 'the house’ this year. Give me a new mattress for the spare room instead of that set of furs I w ant." Be just, girls, and don't try to spread your spirit of generosity over too large a -url’aee. If ...ome one must be sacri ficed in your I'lnlstinas buying, don’t ' let thut s.'Crillee be the best friends I you have on earth youi lather m<) • v.»iii nmtlitr creak—sneak along the passage and down the black well of the stairs to the curtains of the living room—there in the flickering of the flames and the dim glow of candles you’d find your little old grandmother entertaining a late guest! A little fat boy! And the eyes of the two of them would he dreamy and all atwinkle—and there’d be a pink spot in your grandma's either check— and you’d hear the most amazing laughter as the two of them went over old times—old places—old faces —and old days! Daysey Mayme and Her Folks By Frances L. Garstde BUYING FOR FATHER. THERE may be other women who point with pride and alarm to long lists of friends and relatives they remember at Christmas, but there isn’t one of them so badly infected with the Holy Yuletide germ as Daysey Mayme Appleton. She gives to everybody, including the woman she met on a train a year ago last summer and hasn’t seen since. She gets the Christmas trot in such exag gerated form that if it were not for her father’s exalted position as Kin Com missioner General of the United States, she would be arrested for exceeding the speed limit. After such effort her brain had .begun to feel as inflamed as a sprig of holly. She had scratched name after name off her list and had at last come to father. "Dear father," she thought. "He is so good! I must remember dear fa ther!” She coaxed s2l) out of him as a pre liminary- effort to remembering him, and with this in her purse she started downtown. She passed a millinery store on the way and went in. When she came out she had paid $lB for a sweet little hat the size of a wagon wheel. “I am on my way,” she recalled, “to buy a Christmas gift for father." She reached a department store and went in and walked and walked, and ROMANCE UP TO DATE. It was a secluded corner, hemmed in with palms and fairy lights, calm, cool and restful. In the distance could be heard the strains of a band, play-ing a slow, rapturous waltz. The very air breathed with romance. "Do you realize what it would mean if J were to give you such a beautiful ring?" he asked softly. She thought she did: but. instead of saying so—for she wished to hear him say those blessed words herself —she cooed a gentle “What? What would it mean? " “It would mean," ho sain, as lie rose to his feet, “that I should have to live on ien-cent lunches and wear old clothes for a year!" CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Then she walked and looked ami thought some more, and always she re membered the goodness of dear father. She looked at diamond pins and sighed because she couldn't afford to buy one for him. Then she looked at cotton socks, but felt that cotton socks even with bunches of holly pinned on the toes, would somehow fail to express the real innermost Christmas senti ment.

Dear Miss Fairfax: Is it right for a fellow to ask a girl to go out with him on a Mon day and Thursday? Do you think he cares anything about her? M. M. F. He certainly cares for her or he would not seek her company two evenings a week. As this love story progresses I shall he sure he is limited in time or love if he doesn't seek it oftener. NEVER SEE .HIM AGAIN. Deal- Miss Fairfax: I am in love with a man 45 years old, and he says he loves tne sin cerely. J am sixteen years old and considered very good looking. At present he is making sl3 a week; he is a “ection hand for a very large railroad, but has fine chance for advancement. Do you consider his small wages and age a detri ment to our marriage? He wants me to elope. RAY. He is not a man of honor. No man of 45 will urge a girl of sixteen to elope with him if he» loves her in the right way. You must never see him again, or hold any communication with him. I beg of you to heed me. HAVE YOU A RIGHT TO OBJECT? Dear Miss Fairfax: I am nineteen and love a man four years my senior. His sister and I are friends and J often call on her. when I know he Is out. The last few times 1 called on her 1 met three or four young ladies of about my age and they, not knowing me. made inquiries as to his diWoreabouts and made state mentsvwhich led me to believe that t hey are fond of him and were out in his company several times. A. You are not engaged, and the fact that you have given your love unsought doesn't make you the young man's cen sor or guardian. It seems to me the other girls are guests of his sister because of the sarm motive that takes you there. Don’t go so often, and don’t, I beg of you. if you want to win this man’s love make the mistake of being too easily won yourself.
