Christmas Presents
CX FOR
Why arent there more Christmas
gifts that are appropriate for men
and Are there any novel presents so
the stereotyped collar box hat brush
or stickpin will not have to be given
this Christmas are questions often
heard at this season of the year par
ticularly by women who do fancy
work And for once the answer may
be that there is at least one attractive
VIVE HACK
gift that an Ingenious woman who is
clever with carpenters tools can make
This present Is a novel pipe rack To
make the rack procure four boards
from a carpenter two eighteen inches
long by six inches wide and two eight
een inches long by live inches wide
In one of the latter pieces get a car
penter to bore four holes three eighths
of an inch in diameter and running
lengthwise In the board The two end
holes are four inches from the ends of
the board and all of the holes are two
and a half inches apart The two
larger boards are joined together by
means of braces which screw on the
backs with very small screws Five
inches from the top of the longer side
is fastened the board with the holes in
It so that it makes a shelf on the first
piece Then live Inches below this Is
fastened the other board in the same
manner as the first by means of
screws from the back The rack is fin
ished as far as the carpentering goes
The upper shelf is for the pipes the
holes being made for them to rest in
while the lower shelf is for tobacco
boxes matches etc
The next thing is to stain it the pop
ular mission color Then get screw
eyes and put them on the back and
through these put picture wire to hang
it by The hardest thing Is to print
above the first shelf A Mans Best
Friend Paint the letters with gold
paint which sets off the dark color of
the wood and gives the rack a finished
decorative appearance

A Tobacco Pouch
When wife or daughter makes a to
bacco pouch for the pater hes always

string of heavy silk with long tassels
run In near the top Its not the kid
the lining or the cord that makes these
bags so unusual for without the mon
ogram or crest done in gilt thread or

shaving case This is composed of
white tissue paper cut to the proper
size while the outside case of blue

A Christmas Present

in doubt should experiment with this
as a Christmas gift this year

Buying In His Note
Colonel Bill was a pioneer legislator
merchant and banker of the vest pock
et variety
It was seldom that Colonel Bill got
caught by a debtor so uuerring was
his judgment of men but his transac
tion with old man Blankerton was an
exception to the rule Blankerton got
into Colonel Bills Jpdger to the amount
of G0 aud finally balanced the account
with a note
When the paper was a long time
overdue and there was no prospect of
a settlement to the eminent disgust of
the colonel he declared with a strong
Anglo Saxon emphasis that he would
sell Blankertons note for HO cents on
the dollar The statement was not
long reaching the ears of the maker
of the note He met the colonel iu the
village street one day and accosted
him
Bill heard youd offered to sell my
note for 50 cents on the dollar
Yes I will
Will you sell it to me at that rate
Yes sir Ill sell it to you at that
rate
All right Bill make out a new
note
Colonel Bills symptoms of apoplexy
became noticeable from that moment

Laughing Disclosures
Concerning the laughter of the
Frenchman it should be noted that
our neighbors have worked out a sys
tem of character reading by the vowel
in which one laughs Laugh in A our
English Ha ha and according to
Larousse you reveal yourself as frank
inconstant and fond of noise and move
ment Laughter in E Heh heh
would be the English rendering is for
phlegmatic and melancholy Children
and simple persons laugh in a French
I He he showing themselves de
voted but timid and irresolute and it
is observed that blonds laugh He
he no ho ho is not the laush
of an opre but of one who is generous
In sentiment and bold in action though
of a woman who laughs like that one
should beware But both men and wo
men Avho laugh in U should be shun
ned like the plague since they have
given fair warnings that they are
misers hypocrites or misanthropes

To Rule a Husband
To ruie your husband my dear lady
do exactly as you please but always
pretend that you do as he pleases
That is where your ability comes in
Men are ruled as children are by the
prospect of a reward The reward cf
your husband is your amiability your
sweetness your devotion and your
beauty of which you should take a
constant care Love has to be fed con
stantly Always let him suppose that
it is for him that you wish to remain
beautiful The woman who believes
that she is asserting her independence
every time she puts on a hat particu
larly displeasing to her husband is as
clever and as intelligent as the Irish
man who buys a return ticket at a rail
road office and on entering the car re
marks to the passengers I have play
ed a good joke on the company I have
bought a return ticket but I dont
mean to come back Max ORell in
