Well, the time for the close of the

> December 18 Numbers of letters
;«re being received by me every day,
and while it will be simply impossl-

lead and considered under the rules
of the contest
Therefore, if your letter isn’t print
ed. don't feel aggrieved. It has just
as much chance as any of securing
one of the gold pieces I offered for
best mggestions. I had hoped to be
able to print every letter received,
but. confidentially, I was not prepared
for the flood of communications
whk'h followed close upon the heels
of the contest announcement.
Some admirable suggestions have
been made, and trust they h£ve
been of real benefit to the married
folks who have been worrying over
the present-giving problem this
Christmas I have enjoyed every one
of the letters.
If you haven’t sent In a letter, read
the following:
To thr irifr mho writes the best

Sib gold piece.
Three awards of $>5 ouch untl

are adjudged the next best.
Aljto, 1 will award thr same
prizes to husbands who irrite brief
letters outlining the most appro

FOR A HUSBAND.
M;ss Mary Lea Davis
I think the most simple and ap
propriate gift a wife could pre
sent to her husband is a combina
lion collar, cuff and tie, and collar
;ind cuff button and tie clasp box.
Then he will not have t<> be run
ning all over the house hunting
them up when needed, and an In
dustrious wife can get up the sim
]>le material and make this box a:
home. Also in connection with
this box is all the heartfelt love
aud encouragement she ran be
stow on him. as it takes this to
make a home happy. Also a
years subscription to The Geor

a wife can give her husband is
something to wear lhat he needs
at Christmas time, and every

of all. For my husband's Christ

him an overcoat. T. J. I\

could well be appreciated and

Christmas is the time of all
Limes to show, by your gift* to
husband, that you are ever
thoyghtful of his wishes and d«
sires. Now, 7 intend to earn
by my own efforts the price of
the gift I shall give him, which, I
think, would be more appropriate
than if he had to pay for his ow n
gift. As my husband is a great
lover of a certain breed of chick-
