U.K. Mnnkittri-'k in the December Woman's
Home CouipainuuI
wish that good old Santa
Would travel like a show,
And to his tent of playthings
For nothing let m? g.i;
And take along ray stockings,
To fill in langhirg glee
With all the things he foudly
n.Mjwi +v> j rtiriii'mio tree.
xxau^o uyvu VUJ ?
I'd see the pasteboard camel
Wiuk at the Kangaroo;
I'd see the Caina wombat
And qnagga chase the gnu;
I'd see toe rnbber o>trich
Serenely blink his eye
To Ree the monkey caDture
The peanut on the fly,
And then I'd see old Santa
With all his books and rhymes;
I'd grab him by the whiskers
And kiss him fifty times
And on frs back go riding
Beneath the fairy dome.
And with a lot of playthings
Go running ga;ly home.
Tis then I think old Santa
Should up and go away,
. . And in some other village
Put np his tent next day;
And then go on still farther,
Further still and still,
To let all lovely children
Their great big stocking fill.
'Twould alwaye be Cnristmas.
All musical with joy.
And bending tree and turkey
And hobby horse and toy;
For while upon hia travels
Old Santa'd scatter cheer;
He'd make a Christu as somewhere
Each day throughout the year.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield,
111., makes the statement, that she
caught cold, which settled on her
lungp; she was treated for a month
by her family physician, but grew
worse. He told her she was a hopeless
victim of consumption and that
# no medicine could cure her. Her
- druggist suggested Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption; she
bought a bottle and to her delight
found herself benefited from firet
dose. She continued its use and
after taking six bottles, found herself
sound and well; now does her
own housework, and is as well as
she ever was. Free tiial bottles of
this Great Discovery at J. E. Kaufmann's
Drug Store. Ooly 53 cents

The Boers Have Licked the Biitisb
Oat of Their Boots.
Dating tho past week the Boer and
British have fonght an important
, bittle at Margersfontien, in which
the British were whipped completely
oat of their boots. The British
forces were under the command of
General Methuen, and ran upon the
entrenched Boers before the presence
of the enemy was discovered. In
the fight that ensued there was a
great slaughter of the British, one
regimeDt, the Highlanders, losing
some 600 meD, and were compelled
to retreat to Modder K'.ver. The following
is an account of the latest
operations in South Africa:
London, December 15, 4:15 a. m
?The war office is still without news
from Ladysmith other than that al
ready published. The general belief
was that the large Boer forces Lord
Methuen encountered at Magersfontsin
were partly drawn from Natal
and that General Buller will strike a
blow before these have time to return.
The stories circulated yesterday
thit General Builer and General
Clery had entered Ladysmith and
captured 10,000 Boers are totally
without confirmation.
The war office has heard Dothing
of the relief of Lidysmith and do
not credit the reports, saying that
the relief of the place at such an
early date i3 believed to be practically
impossible.
Modder River, Cape Colony, Tuesday,
December 12 ?Details gathered
here by a representative of the Associated
Press among the wounded
British acd Boers give some idea of
. the desperate nature of the fight at
Marger?fonteic. The Highlanders
did all that the most gallant troops
in the world could do, but it ^as impossible
to face the terrible fire of
the Boers. The British artillery
a*ain saved the situation and divided
the honors of the day with with the
Scots. The batteries worked for
hours under a galling fire.
According to the Boer stories it
was impossible for the burghers to
have escaped fearful loss. One Boer
prisoner eaid a single lyddite shell j
killed or wounded over 70 and that
two other shells burst over two
bodies of Boers enscounccd behind
the range, doing fearful damage. All
agree that the Boers fought throughout
with the utmost gallantry. Their
sharpshooters seldom missed the
mark.
A b'eaforth Highlander says that
while he was lying wounded on *the
field he saw a Bo*r of typical German
appearance, faultlessly dressed,
with polished top boots, a skirt with
silk ruffles and a cigar iD bis mcutb,
walking among the sand hills picking
off the Biitish. He was quiie alone
and it was apparent from the frequent
use he made of field glasses

To be bound hand and feet for
