HOME EDITION VOLUME XIX, No. 319. Get Votes With Purple Stamps For Your Favorite Charity, Dorothy Dix Favors Practical Christinas SHE SUGGESTS THINGS WOMEN LIKE TO RECEIVE. “The hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of Christmas pres ents I used to get,” said Miss Dix. “only depressed me and made me feel guilty. All that money spent for a lot of junk—a collection of dust collectors—till I decided to be sensible and credit my friends with being sensible. “I just told them all that I didn’t want any more useless things. Nobody can have too many sheets and pillow cases, nor too many napkins and table cloths. I told the people that I knew well enough to speak frankly to. that I had no place and no apprecia-* tion for useless gifts. They took it splendidly and I know they were secretly relieved. Now they know what they’re going to make for me or going to give to me and it is always something sensible and useful and we all enjoy ourselves. Her Most Delightful Present a Set of Kitchen Utensils. “The idea of sensible gifts is good not only for people in mod erate circumstances, for the rich est woman values something for her house or home, things for her wardrobe, that can be really utilized. Do you know what I re gard as the most delightful Christ mas present I ever had? a complete set of kitchen utensils and cooking paraphernalia! “Even a woman who has every thing on earth that she wants to buy, appreciates a hand-mode nightrobe, a fine hemstitched towel, initialed handkerchiefs, or table linen —not the awful bric-a brac stuff that gets in the way, but serviceable things. “Why should a well-meaning friend offer us horrible vases, glass ornaments, hideous looking rocking chairs, perfumes that we despise, etc., etc.? “After all, giving should be the expression of intimate regard. The time is past for universal gifts that involve people in unde sirable obligations. The smallest offering is sufficient to express hearty good-will and the better the taste and judgment exercised —that is, the more useful and sensible the gift, the greater the appreciatio- on the part of the one who received the favor. Gloves, Stockings, Neckpieces, Handkerchiefs —All These Should Be Considered. “No sensible woman ought to feel that she has give i her friends a real greeting in the form of a Christmas gift if she has failed to find out If they would like a pair of gloves, a pair of silk stockings, some dainty neckpiece, handker chiefs —in short, showing a per sonal regard for her preferences or needs. “It is not enough to limit, one’s giving to common sense variety and scope, but one should take a firm stand about receiving gifts. If women would make themselves known as feeling Irritation and annoyanee 'ar more strongly than gratitude for a raft of silly germ inviting junk, everybody would be greatly benefited.” 34 Shopping Days Before Xmas NOW ON DISPLAY.
