HE twenty-fifth of Decem-
ber rather the week about
that time has been cele-
brated for many ages with
rejoicing Long before the
Christian era the pa-
gan astronomers decided that these
were the shortest days before the sun
returned to northern lands to bring
another spring and seed time and har-
vest The dreary winter was at its
worst and the coming days would
bave longer hours of light and sun-
shine and tbe reawakening of na-
ture Therefore sing and be joyfuL
The Egyptians held a festival in honor
of tbe birth of their god Horus Tbe
Romans called It “the birthday of the
Invincible sun” and dedicated it to
Bacchus rejoicing with him that the
sun was about to return and revivify
the vineyards The Persians held a
ol festlcal of uncommon splendor as tbe
birthday of Mithras the mediator a
spirit of the sun In the north coun-
try among the worshipers of Odin It
was a nature festival of riotous feast-
ing because the fbst of winter was
approaching Its end It has been a
time of universal celebration accord-
ing to ancient written history since
the beginning and obscure tribes in
remote nations have legends of their
own about wbat we call Christmas-
tide the feast of peace and good will
As Christianity brougnt its blessings
to follow the good of past religions It
seems only right that the birth of
Christ should come at a time of gen-
eral rejoicing It made it easier for
the pagans to turn to the Saviour of
Light at a time when the returning
sunshine in the skies was symbolical
of tbe feeling of brotherly kindness
which was taught in the love of a lit-
tle child And so as early as the sec-
ond century the church celebrated
Christmas day when tbe heathen were
honoring their gods
The Christmas celebration as we
know It Is but a reincarnation of tbe
Yuletlde of tbe Anglo Saxon tribes
Singing is a proper way to manifest
Joy It delights the singer and gives
pleasure to others The churchly car-
ols were not enough for the hearty
feeling Tbe pagan feasting remains
' And so with that divine old carol
“Adeste Fldelis” are convivial songs
Come hither ye faithful
Triumphantly sing
Come see the manger
Our Saviour and King!
To Bethlehem hasten
With Joyous accord!
Ob come ye come hither
To worship the Lord!
The contrast lies in “A Carole
Brynglng in Ye Bore's Heed”
Capri apri defero
Reddens laudes domino
Tbe Bore's head In hand bring I
With garlands gay and rosemary
And I pray you all sing merely
Quls estlls in convlvlo
The church of the early days bad
some of tbe wisdom of modern social
service it entertained Its parishion-
ers In a wordly way as well as in-
stilled religious doctrine Tbe mys-
tery miracle plays and mummeries
enacted under the direction of tbe
clergy rehearsed the scene in the
stable These plays gave rise to a
number of legendary carols Tbe
“Cherry Tree Carol” was popular In
London In the last century It related
the story of the Virgin begging Joseph
to pluck some cherries for her and
when he rufusing the unborn babe
speaks and tells his mother to reach
out her hand and the tree will bow
before her and tbe carol goes on to
say:
“Then bespake JoBepb
I have done Mary wrong” etc
Another carol of this time Is full of
beautiful Imagery
“‘As Joseph was a-walking
He heard an angel sing—
The night shall be born
Our heavenly king
He neither shall be born
In bouse nor in ball
Nor in the place of Paradise
But In an ox’s stall” etc
This is In the same spirit as our fa-
miliar: “While shepherds watched tbelr flocks
by night
All seated on the ground
Tbe angel of tbe Lord came down
And glory shone around
“Fear not” said be (for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled min)
“Glad tidings of great Joy 1 bring
To you and all mankind”
And who would forget tbe swing of
melody and tbe charity taught in
“Good King Weneslaus looked forth
On tbs least of Stephen”
He saw tbe beggar gathering fuel
In tbe snow that lay “round about”
and calls to his servants to bring him
robes and wine and to fetch the poor
man In from the cold
In the rural districts the nature fes-
tival lived long after the church had
taken the feast There were remains
of tree worship and sacrifice to Po
mona in Cornwall as last as 160 years
ago The peasants used to go into
the orchards on Christmas day with
pailfuls of cider and roasted apples
Tbe health of tbe trejes was drunk to
song and libations poured upon the
roots In various sections of north-
ern Europe It Is the custom to deco-
rate trees out of doors The fir trees
as evergreens and fruit trees for their -promises
were trimmed with long
streamers of ribbon or paper
The Christmas tree lands' Its ances-
tor in the German ash Ygdrasll a
great tree whose top reached to Wal-'
halla the home of the gods and
whose roots were fast in the earth
Tbe Germans have a wealth of car-1
ols but nearly all are of a religious
nature
“Oh Tannenbaum! Oh Tannen-
baum” or the song of tbe fir tree at
Christmas time has become world
wide Who could count the house-
holds that gather around tbe tapers
lighted and the tree loaded with gifts
to sing this in unison
In the English household tbe song
is:
“Gather around the Christmas tree
Ever green has its branches been
It is king of all the woodland scene”
Or it may be:
“Carol brothers carol
Carol Joyfully
Carol for the coming of Christ’s na-
tivity” Tbe good old custom of singing
from house to house on Christmas eve
has crept across the water from Eng-
land to America It was a part of the
program of the season to learn these
carols and to gather in bands going
from! bouse to house across the snow
and singing before the doors Tbe
neighbors knew they were coming
preparing cakes and warm drinks and
sometimes gifts of money Whoever
has heard “God rest ye merry gentle-
men let nothing ye dismay” sung
heartily In the frosty plr has a thrill
and an experience that returns to him
every Christmas after
And every Christmas morn Is awak-
ened with the stirring strains of
“Shout the glad tidings exultingly
sing”
But we must not think that England
or Germany sing all the carol music
France had a quaint literature of Its
own Here is one of Nowell or Noel
and from north to south there are
delightful variations of It:
“ ’Nowell nowell nowell nowell'
This Is the salutacyon of the angell
Gabryell
Tydings true ther be cum neu sent
frame the trynyte
Be gabryell to nazareth cety of galile
A clene maydyn and pure virgyn
tborow her humylyte
Hath conceybyb the person secund In
delte”
Pere Noel comes down tbe chimney
and gives gifts Just aw Father Christ-
mas does across the channel and the
little French children sing:
“Noel Noel Noel Noel slngetb clear
Holpen are all folk on earth
Born Is God’s son so dear”

SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR
“My mother used to have a very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema and for It I had two
different doctors Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
in spite of what they both did One
day her niece came in and they were
speaking of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did it no good
She says ‘Aunt why don’t you try
Cuticura Soap and Cutlcura Oint-
ment?’ Mother did and they helped
her In six months’ time the Itching -burning
and scalding of her head was
over and her hair began growing To-
day she feels much in debt to Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment lor the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four
“Myown case was an eczema In my
feet As soon as tbe cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn and
then they would crack open and bleed
Then I thought I would flee to my
mother's friends Cuticura Soap and
Cutlcura Ointment I did for four or
five winters and now my feet are as
smooth as any one’s Ellsworth Dun-
ham Hiram Me Sept 30 1909”
TWO WORLD FAMED GRANNIES
One of These Talented Women Is
Sarah Bernhardt and the Other
Ellen Terry
Two famous grandmothers are dis-
tinguished visitors of this country Re-
ferring to these talented ladies The
Rochester Post Express says: “One of
the grandmothers is Mme Sarah Bern-
hardt the other is Ellen Terry Both
actresses have reached an age when It
Is permissible to retire from active
life but the French actress is said to
be as energetic as a woman halt her
age while Ellen Terry is declared to
be as young as ever she was in the
palmy days when she and Henry Irv-
ing ruled the theatrical world ot Eng-
land Miss Terry has retired from the
stage so far as acting is concerned
and has taken to lecturing on Shakes-
peare’s heroines And who could do
better than she who has played - so
many of tbe womanly women of the
great dramatist? Readers of her
breezy biography know what she
thinks of Portia Beatrice Voila Rosa-
lind and other famous women of the
tragedies and comedies but no print-
ed page could charm as does the won-
derfully expressive features and the
velvet voice of the greatest living
English-speaking actress”
Does Your Cat Cough?
Poor pussy! As If the Immemorial
charges against her of keeping us
awake o' nights and of eating canary
birds whenever she gets the chance
were not enough the doctors have
just discoveredthat for years she has
been responsible for the spread of
dlphthetria Dr G J Awburn of
Manchester England having traced
an epidemic of this disease in a sub-
urb of that city to a pet cat belonging
to one of his patients has found after
much clever investigation that all
cats are peculiarly susceptible to
diphtheritic affections of tbe throat
He baa therefore recently been warn-
ing all families who own cats to
watch them carefully and if they de-
velop coughs to forbid tbelr being
hugged and petted Dr Awburn fur-
ther recommends that if the cough
persists and the cat begins to grow
thin to have the animal destroyed at
once The only really safe way he
says is to let tbe first wheeze be
pussy’s death warrant
