tlon Is now being built to meet the ever-increasing
demand In this fountain-head of holiday trophies
there are employed more than 300 persons many
of them high -salaried designers engravers and
color printers Fully two-thirds of the force of
workers is made up of girls and young women for
despite all the wonderful machines which have
been Invented of late years to help in the manu-
facture of Christmas novelties a large part of the
work must yet be done by hand and in this deft
feminine fingers are to be preferred to men's
handiwork
It may surprise some people to learn that a
manufactory of Christmas cards and like novel-
ties is busy all the year round One Chrl tmas
bas no sooner passed into history than the de-
signers are busy trying to evolve new conceits
and novelties of various kinds for the next De-
cember trade and using the record of sales for
THE TRUE CHR1STAUS SPIRIT
Kindness Toward Our Fellow Men
Toward the Needy and the
Lowly Is It Message
The ' old message of good will
toward men is the Christmas spirit
and the hope is that all have been
cultivating that spirit all the year
long If some have not however this
week Is their opportunity to secure
at least a fringe of it
The birth of Jesus of Nazareth is
the special occasion of the festival
but all are agreed that the best way
to celebrate that momentous event Is
by keeping the old message of good
will to men fresh and active in the
hearts of all
To be plain and brief the spirit of
Christmas is kindness toward our
fellow men — toward the needy tbs
lonelx the unfortunates in our civi-
lization’s complex life
Christmas is the ono great festival
ot the entire Christian world and no
cue keeps it who does not Imbibe
thin spirit of kindness which was
Christ’s The angels of Bethlehem
the holidays Just past
to guide them in their
efforts by the evi-
dence it affords of
the trend of the ever-
changing public taste
Nor is the "busy sea-
son” — the "rush peri-
od” of this activity
the interval of a few
weeks before Christ-
mas as many might
suppose On the con-
trary it is during the
midsummer When
most of us are cele-
brating the Fourth of
July and enjoying an
August vacation the workers in the Christmas card
factory are tolling night and day to get out cards
with pictures of snow scenes and the like ui
course emergency orders are received almost up
to Christmas but the great bulk of Christmas nov-
elties must be in the hands of the dealers four
months in advance of the day they are to be placed
on sale
And Just here it may be added that by no means
all of the Christmas tokens turned out by these
wonder workers are low priced We are wont to
think of Christmas novelties as costing no more
than a quarter apiece at the outside and yet
ameng the hundreds of different designs produced
by a big manufactory each year will be found holi-
day remembrances that retail at prices ranging all
the way from one cent to $10 Yet the profits of
the manufacturers come principally from the low-
price goods and there is ever a feverish quest for
sounded the note of peace to men ol
good will and this note has gone on
gathering strength and university
down through the ages All the cere-
monials on Christmas day are out-
ranked by the general feeling and de-
sire to Increase the happiness of
others For that is wbat the Christ-
mas snlrit is It is not the cost cf
the gift that counts but the spirit
that goes with it
The world is growing kindlier and
belter and this is why each succeed-
ing Christmas la greater than any
that went before Christmas and
Santa Claus and the Joy of children
and the brightenlng'of the lives of
the less fortunate are all great liv-
ing facts and It is these facts that
constitute the spirit ‘ of Christmas i
Whoever bas that spirit within his
breast has the true key to Christmas
with ail Us Joys and happiness

CONVIVIALITY
Holiday Seaaon Moves Judge to Ba
Lenient Towards Old ‘
Toper
At a dinner In Denver Judge Ben B
Lindsey told a story about Christmas
conviviality
"There used to be an old fellow of
60" be said “who got arrested about
twice a week for conviviality He was
always haled before Magistrate Blank
and as the magistrate was about 60
too a queer kind oj comradeship al-
most friendship arose between the
two men
"In the late autumn the toper was
called away from Denver He did
not return till Christmas time Thd
convivial Christmas spirit in the crisp
Denver air was of course too much
for him and the day after bis return
he was haled before the usual magi
trate on the usual charge 1
"The magistrate In the green-festooned
court room felt kindly and for-
giving " ‘Well George he said to the pris-
oner ‘you are here again at last ebF
novelties The souvenir post card craze was tbs
biggest thing the manufacturers ever encountered
and for all that one American factory has prepared
20000000 post cards tor this year’s trade it Is
realized that the fad has seen its best days and the
manufacturers are now hunting high and low for
something to take its place The most promising
prospect is found in the little Christmas "seals”
(stamps or stickers) for packages and letters which
have come to have such a vogue of late years and
are now being manufactured by the dozens of mil-
lions a year
There are some seven or eight main operations
in the manufacture of a novelty such as a Christ-
mas card or an ornamental calendar First of all
comes the designing or the making of a preliminary
sketch the object of which is to show how the com-
pleted novelty will look This sketch may be paint-
ed in water color made with the aid of an “air
brush” or formed by pasting together (in a new
arrangement) details taken from other novelties
When a design is approved it goes to the "re-
producing room” where arrangements are made
for manufacture in quantity Next comes the prep-
aration of the printing plates dies etc and this is
followed by the actual printing in quantity Some
of the presses are big enough to print 04 Christmas
cards at a time but some of the more elaborate
cards must be run through the presses ten or a
dozen times in order to obtain the desired color
combinations Cardboard novelties must be cut
and then stamped or pressed into shape The
Christmas seals above mentioned are punched by
' hand or by means of machinery The arrangement
of the various pieces that go to make up a novelty
the adjustments of silken cords the tying of rib-
bons etc all come in a process known as “manu-
facture” Finally the cards or novelties are packed
in wooden or pasteboard boxes all ready to be dis-
played on the counters of the stores as soon as the
holiday spirit in the air proclaims the approach of
the principal holiday of the year
OP CHRIS I MAS
" ‘Yes your honor said old George
humbly
“ You’ve been away some time
haven't you?’
” ‘Yes your honor nigh on to three
months'
” 'And how many times George did
you get drunk during that period?’
" 'I don’t like to say your honor'
old George faltered ‘before all these
here people'
‘"Well said the magistrate ‘take
paper and pencil and write it down
"So George wrote and the paper
was passed up to the magistrate who
looked at It and said:
” ‘Ah well it’s the Christmas sea-
son and since you were away three
months George and only got drunk
16 times I'll let you off -”
’Thank you judge said old
George as he left the dock ‘You
looked at the paper upside down
though' "

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
6he says ‘Aunt why don’t you try
Cutlcura 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 Cutl-
cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four
"My own case was an eczema in my
feet As soon as the 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 Cutlcura Soap and
Cutlcura Ointment I did for four or
five winters and now my feet are as
smooth as any one’s Ellsworth Dun-

- 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 discovered that for years she has
been responsible for the spread of
diphtheria Dr G J Awburn of
Manchester England having traced
an epidemic of this disease in s sub-
urb ot that city to s pet cat belonging
to ono of his patients has found sftsr
much clever investigation that all
cats are peculiarly susceptible to
diphtheritic affections of the throat
He has therefore recently been warn-
ing all families who own cats to
watch them carefully and if they de-
velop coughs to forbid their 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 the first wheeze be
pussy’s death warrant
