We’ll just take it easy here and he’ll be along soon, for sure. Not yet? Oh, well, in the meantime, we’ll just rest our eyes for a second or two... and listen for the sound... of his footsteps on the roof. WELL, LOG GONE . . .

For the would-be scientist in the family, a chemistry sfct is almost always a welcome gift. Sets come with instruction book detailing many safe, interesting experiments. Siory o> one Solitary Life : Author Unknown HERE IS A YOUNG MAN who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another village. He worked in a carpenter shop until lie w T as 30, and then for three years he wus an itinerant preacher. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never owned a home. He never had a family. He never went to college. He never put his foot inside a big city. He never traveled 200 miles from the place where he was born. He never did one of the things ihat usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but himself. While he was still a young man, the tide of private opinion turned against him. His friends ran away. He was turned over to his enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a cross between two thieves. While he was dying his executioners gambled for the only piece of property he had on earth, and that was his coat. When he was dead, he was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend. Nineteen wide centuries have come and gone, and today he is the central figure of the human race and the leader of the column of progress. I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, and all the navies that were ever built, and all the parlia ments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as has that One Solitary Life. ;Kv.\v.v> m m m 1 :• v : >5\- • : V •**: •5^;, vt? •:>W: • - •• May your home be snug with the joys of the Season.
