AN IDEA 1±011 CHRISTMAS
BOXES.
A writer for the Ladies Home
Journal having made 0 suggestion
for the use of the little boxes which
come to eveey house with fancy dry
goods and stationery, another lady
tolling how in one case the idea wax
carried out Ite providing gifts for an
orphan home in a southern State.
Others may fend the idea useful.
She says
Our first stop was to write to the
Sister in cbargo of the home and
ascertain the names and ages of the
girls in her oare. Nary soon the
answer came. and we hold a moetiug
and went to work.
Wo found the list eontaiue,l the
names of 24 girls whose ages rouged
from six to eighteen years.
- "We theu made up a list of 24 of
our girls, members of our S'nuday-
schools, whose ages corresponded
with the ages upon the other list.
Then we cat 24 el,ps of letter
paper, and on each wrote a name
and age from the first !let ; on the
next line tho word "from," and be.
lose, tho name of one of the girls
whose ago was nearly the 5341113 ns
t11at of the girl abuse name was on
the slip. In dale way wo went
through the whole list.
Then we err•:fltgcit to notify our
girls to meet tot en the nfteruuon of
a certain day.
At the appointed time nearly all
were present with bright, expectant
foo- s, and dee reading "Celia's
idea" to them WO gave to each ono
the piece of paper upon whiclr her
namewas w•rttteu, and explained
our plan to Mum,
1Vo told them each to find a pretty
box, about the eizu of those eu which
stttuunery coulee. Iu each box to
be sure to put at tenet ono Christ.
mac card, and to 1111 the box with
any other articles they thought
would please a girl of tho ago on
their paper , on tbo top at the box
place the slip of paper we gave them,
and then we charged them all to
bring the boxes to us early in De -
comber.
All seemed pleased and willing,
and we dismiseod them and for sov•
oral weeks waited results.
When nearly time for tbo boxes
to bo brought in, we hada notice
read in the Sunday -school for fear
some might forget.
Christmas week came at last, and
all the boxes were brought in except
one --ono girl being absent from
town—but the deficiency was quick-
ly made up by another.
the box was opened..
"1 cannot tell you all that was
said, nor describe the joy of the
girls,,but they wore 80 absorbed in
their )efts that they could think of
very little besides.
"I took gent the quilt first, and
laid 1t aside, and distributed the
boxes, handing each girl hers es I
came to it.
"1 had some books to distribute,
but I could hardly got their atten-
tion, they were so absorbed in their
boxes.
"I heard a great many oxalama•
tions—as, 10! I've got just what I
wanted!"'01 bow pretty!"'I have
a collar and cuffs 1' 'Look at this
worsted and crochet needle!' and so
they continued to the end, Surely
those boxes gave great pleasure."
Vareeties.
Jumping at n conclusion—A. dog
chasing his tail.
An eel lays'0,000,000 eggs. How
insignificant thy work, 0 hen t Go
to the eel, thou cackler, consider her
ways and glut the market.
A citizen bought bimeolf a book
the other day and wrote this on the
fly -loaf: 'Presented to John Jones
by himself as a mark of esteem.'
'Do you know what gives a woman
the most eatisfaction?' 'Her beauty,
of course.' 'Not her own, but the
absence of any in some other woman.
Tore are some things which can
never bo expected to The in the
world. For instance, carpets and
sidewalks are always being put down
and kept under foot.
A lady, with a sigh, exclaimed,
'Well, I've lost my lawsuit 1' '011,
mamma, how glad I am,' said the
child, 'that you have lost it, for it
tormented you awfully.'
Little threo•year•old Arthur was
pulling the cat's tail, when a gentle-
man stud, 'You musn't do that ;• she
will bite.' Tho little fellow replied,
'Cats don't bite at this end.'
Lady of the ]louse (urging com-
pany to ort) -'Please help your-
selves. Do jut as you would in
your own house. I am aleays too
glad when my Monde are at home,'
'1 think you must be un same De.
trait newspaper,' said she as they
sat together on the sofa. 'And pray
why,' fro queried, as hie arm relaxed.
'Bocanse you seem to bo feud of the
l 10se.'
'No, young man,' said the jeweler,
'1'm sorry, but I can't give you an
advertisement. You see, I'm troubled
with heart disease and my pbyeiotau
has ordered me to stop advertleiug,
so that I may enjoy absolute rest
and quiet.'
'Bobby,' said his mother, 'dill you
givo half of the orange to your little
sister?' '0h, yes, me., I gave Ler
more than that,' replied Bobby with
a nervous. air. 'Did you, indeed 7
Why that was rieo of you,' 'Yes,
ma, 1 suoked the juloo out and gave
her all the rest.'
A superstitious subscriber, who
found a spider inside his paper,
wants to know if it it considered a
bad omen. Nothing' of tho kind.
The spider was merely looking in-
side of the paper to eco what moroh-
ant was not advertising, so that he
could spin his web across the door
