OOLS!" said Mr. SirapEon.
"Idiots!" ho ridded. "Even
If tboy ar?; jTiy own rela
tives!" ho supplemented
with a dogged ?hake o? bis
purtlally bald head.
The souvenir postal card
which called forth his op
probrious language had just
arrived.
"Look at this, will you?"
Ho turned tho curd over
lu bin fingers,.
" 'i'uaco on eartn, good
will to men!'" Mr. Simp
sou read the inscription.
Then he turned it over.
" 'We want you with us
day after tomorrow for a
good, old-fashioned family
reunion around tho festal
Christmas board!'" ho read
in threo lines of handwrit
ing on tho other side of tho
card.
"Theie you are!" ho ex
claimed wrathfully. "Thero
you are, doggone il!"
Ho waved tho card vio
lently around In the air at arm's length
as ho continued mutterlug. j
"They tend you ono of these paper
doilies Irorn a madhouse dining room,"
[went on Mr. Simpson to the listening
walls of tho room of which ho was tho
only ocmnant?"with 'Peace on earth,
good-will to men' on one side, and on
tho other an Invitation to take a six
hour trip out into tho slushy country
for a rotten meal with a gang of
people who drlv? mo crazy at the
? thought or being related to, every
'time I seo 'em."
"Hero I am," ho Raid, regretfully
shaking his head over his hard lot in
;llfo, "hero I am, planning that I'll bo
coniforlnblo for at least one Christ
mas, any v. ay. Family away in Florida
|for the winter; mo hero all alone, to
do Just as I like?and now along com83
this?this summons to spend a day be
ing miserable!"
Suddenly Mr. Simpson sat up
straight In Ills chair. .
"By Jerry!" he ejaculated suddenly.
!"Dy Jerry?what's to hinder me from
bolng tho martyr in tho cause? WTiat's
to provent mo from putting an end to
this dad-dinged practice?huh7
"Suppose I don't go to this Christ
mas reunion? Suppose I stay home
here and enjoy my day of peace on
earth In tho way I want to? "What
will happen?
"Why, next year there won't be a
single, solitary soul of my relations
that will get together in an affair of
this kind. I'll have pointed the way?
I'll be the example they've been wait
ing to follow away from custom?and,
by Jerry, I'll bet you the thing will
spread, too!
"And I'll be responsible for It!"
added Mr. Simpson Joyously?"If I
stay away. Just this once, from this
Christmas party I'vo been invited to!' j
! "And think of the good I'm doing,]
to other people, toe!" he added. "How
grateful the public will bo to me for
pointing out the way to their own r?
leuse from this Idiotic custom of sac
rificing the m h elves!
"Wby, I shouldn't wonder if there
-would be a statue erected to me as
tho first man who stayed away from a
family reunion at thla holiday! I can
see it now. labeled: 'The People's,
Santa Claus?He Gave Ua What We,
Wanted Most for Christ as!'"
' And so, in pleasant r<_?iect!on upon
the perfection of bis plan as he had'
carried it out, Mr. Simpson's thoughts,
ran- unth Christmas morning,
It was Mr. Simpson's Idea to cat his
.Christmas dinner, ordered in from a
nearby restaurant, in the solitudo of
hia own homo, bare as it was' of bis
family.
; At one o'clock the waiter brought
In the heavy tray. Mr. Simpson super
intended the arrangement of its con
tents an tho table in the dining room.
. And ft was jUBt one-fifteen, as. he
stood rubbing his hands , at the pros*
pect of eating alone on Christmas for
the first time In hia life?when the
doorbell rang.
! "Doggone It!" burst out Mr. Simp*
son. "WhafS that?"
'. For a moment he decided not. to j
open the door. Then he changed bis
mind and went downstairs, two at a
time. It might bo some bad news! ]
from bis absent family.
, He threw open tho portal?and stag-. ]
gored back into the hall..
> And after him trooped a gnyly
snouting and laughing party of sixteen
?Mr. Simpson's relatives!
f "Wo came to cat our ChWstmae din*
nor hero!" cried one of his aunts.
"You poor man?wo know you'd be:
all alone!" gushed a first cousin,
j "We didn't want you to eat your'
Christmas dinner all by yourself."
chortled another female relation, "so
wo brought ours herb in baskets to
eat with you!"
; Mr.,Simpson looked over |b.e crowd
still streaming into his front hall. His
Hps pursed tightly as ho led the way
to the dining 100m.
But all ho said, unintelligibly to his
expected guerU w,*s: ^
"Well, I guess they won't put np
that statue of. ine as Santa Claus this
rcarl"

One of the gems of present day jour
nalism Is the reply of the New York
Sun to the letter of a little girl, Vir
ginia O'Hanlon, who,- not doubting the
editor's infallibility, doipanded the
truth about Santa Claus. Here is the
editor's MiBwer:
' Vor, Virginia) there is a Santa
.Claus. r{e exists as certainly ah love
and' genuroBtty and - devotion exist,
and you know that they abound and
give l? your life ; its. highest beauty
and joy. AIsb,- how dreary.,would' -bo
the world if f^ere were no Santa
Claus! |t would bo aa dreary ?s if
