Edwin didn’t want to go, she knew, but she hud insisted. so lie acquiesced.

Thus it was. when the clock sound ed out the hour of eight v jears flood ed the eyes of both women—one be cause she had been forgotten and. the other because her spouse wouldn’t hurry. Both women had opened tha front dbore of their apartments and had stepped out upon the porch. A beautiful snow had begun to cover the ground and Jeanette knew Edwin hated tramping through a snowstorm, yrtdfe she, herself,- loved it Mrs. Whitley concluded that the young folks of Union church had decided she shouldn’t, venture out in a snowstorm. Neither woman noticed the other until a low sob escuped the Ups of tbe elder one. It wills but a few moments until the two women had sobbed out their own selfish griefs umi had decided to have a Christmas party all their own. Ed win Kirby joined most heartily in their plans and made numerous trips to the basement for canned fruit and potatoes, and to the attic where he found tbe folded patent Christmas tree, some candles, some red bells and roping, and a huge sack of dry pop corn. What a party! The Kirbys forgot their differences In tnukng dear Mrs. Whitley happy and, in turn, Mrs. Whitley loved the company of young folks. “Never since pa died, have I had such a wonderful. Christmas party,” declared Mrs. Whitley, when she bade the happy child like couple good morning at her door a number of hours afterward. “Some good must come out of ev ery misunderstanding,” thought both, women as they closed their eyes in sleep at the end of such a happy Christmas eve.—L.

Particular ly at the Christmas season, when the general aspect is rather gloomy, a flower or fern will find a welcome. The ideal gift for a’ sick person, a plant is quite as appropriate for one in good Health. Waste baskets are far from a usual gift, and they are always acceptable. Unless one Is already skilled in bas ketry, It would be unwise to attempt weaving one. but heavy cardboard cov ered with scraps of wall paper may be used. This basket should be square, with a cardboard bottom pasted in. The wide ribbon may be run through slits near the top and tied in a bow at one corner. Sealing-wax will also lend: distinction, and this form of decoration may be used on wicker bas kets as Well. A dainty lingerie perfumer which any woman or girl would prize can l>e made by saving the petals of re<i roses. These are dried and sprinkled! with salt, and shoui^ be stirred every morning for about ten days. For two- quarts of petals, mix separately quar ter ounce each of ground mace, clove® 'and allspice, half ounce ground cinna mon, two ounce* powdered orris root, and quarter pound dried lavender flowers. Any other flowers that retain their fragrance after drying may be added. This mixture (or auy other recipe for pot-pourri) is added to tbe rose petals. A cupful or more of these dried petals are then tied in a bag of silk or mesh and finished with an artificial flower,or any other dainty top. It preferred, smaller ones may l»e made, containing about half a cupful each. These should be presented in groups of three.—Helen Galsford. (fy. 19S1.
