Sanra Claus’s /Nistake
(Wr
SR SV S 4
The trouble began the day before
Christmas, early in the morning.
*Lizbeth got out of bed on the wrong
side. She dressed on the wrong side
and ate her breakfast on the wrong
gside, so by ten o’clock the whole
house seemed wrong.
Now the Wrong Side is a black lit
tle sin that wakes up with you and
follows round if you let him, trying
to spoil your whole day. A smile
will drive him away, but ’Lizbeth did
not know this, or else she had for
gotten. It is very strange that one
eross little girl can make a whole
family unhappy, but she can.
The day before Christmas seems
such a busy time for grown-ups; they
go off behind closed doors to talk in
whispers and tie up mysterious pack
ages when they think little girls are
not looking. Now sensible, nice chil
dren keep out of the way; they do not
ask questions, nor do they »iach big
bundles and guess.
‘The Wreng Side was cleose to ’Liz
beth all that day before <hristmas,
saying, do this naughty thing and do
that naughty thing, and ’Lizbeth lis
tened.
She began by teazing baby brother,
whom she really loved dearly, and
when she had made him ery and
brought mother all the way down
stairs to comfort him, ’Lizbeth, with
Wrong Side at her heels, wandered
off to the kitchen. There was a heap
ing cup of raisins, which had taken
cook a long time to seed. Wrong
Side said: ‘*“‘Put salt on them,” so
’Lizbeth did; then she ran upstairs as
fast as she could.
By and by mother came upstairs.
*Lizbeth hid in the hall. Mother did
not see ’Lizbeth; she went into Auntie
May’s room and closed the door—al
most., ’Lizbeth heard tissue paper
rattle. What could it be? ’Lizbeth
crept along the hall to Auntie May’s
door. She raised herselt on tip toe,
and leaned over slowly till she could
ook through the crack.
Oh, my! There stood Auntie May
with the loveliert dolly you ever saw.
*Lizbeth lost her balance—she was
go excited. Bob went her head
against the door and open it flew.
‘““Why, ’Lizbeth,” said mother in oh
—such a sorry voice; but 'Lizbeth did
not wait. With burning cheeks she
was flying downstairs, only stopping
Tong enough to catch up her coat and
hat—never mind her rubbers—she
ecould run in the wet snow and say
she forgot them, whispered Wrong
Side.
So ’'Lizbeth came in to lunch with

not look Christmasie one bit; she did
not smile once.i
Well, Christmas Eve came at last,
and it was time to hang up the stock
ings. There was ’Lizbeth’s brown
six-year size, and brother Carl’s black
nine-year size, and dear baby boy’s
little white sock which he pinned up
all by himself.
Mother had two ways of looking at
you at bedtime, with her happy eyes
or through her sad ones. ’Lizbeth

went slowly upstairs. ’Lizbeth laid
awake a long time; she was not one
bit sleepy. Suddenly there was
Wrong Side, wide awake, too, and
talking to her. What was he saying?
Her stocking? Why, yes, it was
small, not ne~rly so big as Carl’s. He
would get much more than she; lots
more.
’Lizbeth slipped out of bed. Like a
little white shadow she crossed the
hall to grandma’s room. Grandma
had gone to spend Christmas at Uncle
George’s. ’Lizbeth opened the bot
tom drawer of the big bureau. There
lay grandma’s stockings in neat rolled
up pairs. ’Lizbeth opened one of the
rolls,. My! How long they were;
longer than Carl’s.
’Lizbeth stole out in the hall with
one of grandma’s long stockings, and
listened. Every one seemed to be in
the dining-room; she could hear
voices. It took only a moment to
patter downstairs; another to change
her stockings for grandma’s long one,
before the library fire, a third to be
back in bed under the coverlet with
a very loud-beating heart.
And now let me tell you what hap
pened. In the middle of the night
who should come prancing over the
roofs of the houses in ’Lizbeth’s town,
but—guess! To be sure, Santa Claus,
and he was in a desperate hurry, for
he was late on his rounds.
Down in the library chimney he
slid, shaking off the ashes and soot as
he landed in the middle of the hearth
rug. Of course you know he said not
a word, but went straight to his work.
Into Carl’s stocking' went first a
gold piece, then all the things he had

Their Flocks by Night."” |
been wishing for, games, balls, a won
derful knife with five blades, and
heaps of candy. Baby brother’s little
sock was full, too, and Santa Claus
had just stuffed in a white Teddy Cul
with a blue ribbon bow, when his
eyes opened in astonichment,
“Why, bless my soul,” said he, “I
thought grandma had gone to Uncle
George’s for Christmas, and here’s
her stocking. Well, I'll just pop her
things right in. Saves me going over
to Uncle George's, too,” and Santa
Claus set to work again, filled grand
ma's stocking, laid his finger on his
nose and whisked up the chimney.
Christmas morning woke bright
and joyous, and ’Lizbeth woke, too.
She had a feeling that something was
not quite right, then she remembered
Wrong Side and mother’s eyes, and
grandma’s stocking. She dressed
quickly and went into mother’s room
to have her hair bow tied. ’Lizbeth
glanced up into her mother’s face.
Oh, dear me, mother was still looking
through her sad eyes.
But it was Christmas morning and
Carl was tumbling downstairs to get
his stockings and shouting to her to
come, too. How surprised he would
be when he saw her big stocking full.
She might give him a few of her
candies if he felt badly over any
thing; instead he was wild with joy
over his presents.
’Lizbeth went up to grandma’s
stocking. Hnow full it was. ’Lizbeth
felt of the toe; there was a little
box there, no doubt the turquoise ring
she had asked for.
’Lizbeth drew out the first.package,
wrapped in soft tissue paper, and
opened it. My goodness me! It was
a spectacie case! The next was a box
of peppermints, (’Lizbeth hated pep
permint), and the little box at the toe
held a silver thimble with ‘‘Grandma’
on the side and big enough for three
of ’Lizbeth’s little fingers.
“What did you get, 'Lizbeth,” cried
Carl, but ’Lizbeth was not there. Up
in her little pink and white room she
was sobbing, sobbing, sobbing.
It was a very strange Christmas in
deed. ’Lizbeth came down to dinner
with red and swollen eyes, but no one
noticed, not even Carl. When it be
jan to grow dark she went back up
stairs: oh, how miserable she was.
Of course she understood it all.
Santa Claus had made a mistake, but
it was all her fault, her own selfish,
wicked little fault. Oh, oh, oh, it
was very dreadful, but it was too late
now. She would not have any Christ
mas because she had been so bad.
And Auntie May's lovely dolly? She
would never see that either.
“Oh, I'm so sorry,” scbbed ’Liz
beth. “] never meant to be so
naughty. Mother, mother, I do love
you. Don’t look like that any more,”
and ’Lizbeth flung herself down on
the floor by her little white bed. Sud
denly she put her two small hands to
gether and said: ‘‘Please God, make
my mother’s sad eyes go away, and
please God, make me a good girl, and
please God, make Santa Claus come
back.” »
She felt this last was almost too
much to ask; but just then mother
caught her in her arms and kissed her
hair. And what do you think? Santa
Claus did come back. ’'Lizbeth wrote
him a letter that night, sitting on
mother's lap. She told him how very
sorry she was, She sald she thought
she had been too naughty to have a
whole Christmas, but if she could
Just have half her things, and a little
candy that was not peppermint, she
would be satisfied, and she promised
never, never, never again to make
mother look through her sad eyes,
Mother hung up 'Lizbeth's own lit
tle brown stocking and pinned the
note to the toe, Then she tucked
'Lizbeth in her little white bed and
gave her the sweetest kiss that ever
grew,
What do you think was sitting at
the foot of 'Lizbeth's bed the next
morning? Yes, Auntie May's dolly,
and when 'Lizbeth went downstalrs,
with her little hand tight in mother's
there hung her stocking full to the
very brim, and a little ring box way
down in the tos,.—~American Home

A Christmas Carol,
1 hear along our street
Pass the minstrel throngs;
Hark! they pla{ 80 sweet,
On their hautboys, Christmas songs!
Let us by the fire
Ever higher
Sing them till the night expire!
In December ring
Eve? day the chimes;
Loud the gleemen sing
In the streets their merry rhymes.
Let us _bx the fire
Ever hllf er
Sing them till the night expire!
Shepherds at the grange,
Where the Babe was born,
. Sang, with manf' a change,
Christmas carols until morn.
Let us _bly; the fire
Ever hlf er
Sing them till the night expire!
These sood people sang
Song,s evout and swee';
While the rafters rang,
There they stood with freezing feet.
Let us by the fire
Ever lusher
Sing them till the aight expire!
Who by the fireside stands
Stamps his feet and sings;
But he who blows his hands
Not so gay a carol brings.
Let us 'bK the fire
Ever hlf . :
Sing them till the night exilre!

The Yule-Tide Cake With Stockings
of Frosting.
Christmas Eve in Wildwood Hollow.
In Wildwood Hollow, t'other eve, they had
a Christmas tree, ‘
And scores of pretty presents filled the
: animals with glee. :
Sir Reynard smiled a foxy smile, and
scarce his joy could hush,
When presented with a fine, new comb,
to match his handsome *“brush.”
Old Bruin’s wife gave him a box, to hold
. his many “cuffs;”
Miss Centipede, whose feet were cold, had
a hundred warm footmuffs. .
The hedgehog had a bottle of ink, in which
to dip his “quills,” ;
And all the birds had wallets new, in
which to keep their “bills.”
Miss Wildeat an umbrella had (she’s often
- A YEauall™)
Miss Peacock, hooks for all her “eyes,”
and the bat received a ball.
The monkey had an interesting book of
“Jungle Tales,”
And Mr. Alligator had a brand new set
of “scales.”
The buffalo, in gladsome mood, pranced
gaily round and round,
When his own name upon a pair of “bel
lows™ he had found;
In short, for each and every one, a useful
gift was planned,
And merry grunts and roars and growls
were heard on every hand.
Christmas Fruit Cake.
Rub one and one-half cupfuls of
powdered sugar and one cupful of
butter to a cream, and put with them
the yolks of six eggs well beaten, one
cupful of sifted flour, one-half tea
spoonful of ground cloves and one
teaspoonful each of powdered cinna
mon and ground nutmeg. Have the
whites of the eggs whipped stiff and
put them in now, with another cup
ful of flour. Add one-half pound of
raisins seeded and chopped, one-half
pound of cleaned currants and one
fourth of a pound of shredded citron,
all well dredged with flour. Stir them
into the cake and bake this for two
hours in a steady oven. This is an
old Virginia Christmas cake,

Potash For Sale to All.
Farmers who farm on business principles
and fertilize their soils as a manufacturer
Kuts money into a plant—for investment—
ave never reeded much argument to be
convinced that *Potash Pays,” as the Ger
man Kali Works puts it. The trouble for
the farmer has been not only the price, but
the difficully of getting Potash at any
price. The manufacturers have heretofore
absorbed it 1l
All this has been changed, and thousands
of farmers who farm for profit rather than
for mere wa%es and a living, will now be
able to buy all the Potash Salts they need,
in any quantity they want it, of local deal
ers everywhere. And not only this—but
they can get it at lower rates than have
ever before been charged.
This means that farmers can now invest
in glant foods that they themselves can buy
and mix—fertilizers without fillers or make
weights—and put the money saved from in
terest, freight, excessive profits on fillers
and mixing charges into so much more
actual crop-making fertilizer.
The great German potash mines are now
producing enough potash to enable the
American selling agency to guarantee deliv
ery of all that is required both by fertilizer
manufacturers and by local dealers and
farmers. Ask your dealer to carry these in
valuable salts in stock. Tell him to write
to the German Kali Works, Continental
Building, Baltimore, for particulars and
{mces. And we recommend you to write
o them also, for their *Farmers’ Note
Book” and their valuable literature on fer
tilizing and cultivation. Mention what
crops you are most interested in. It will
pay you. to do it. And see your dealer the
uext time you are in town. ;
