WHENCE C0!aTS THE TINSEL The cifaln of t-c Christmas tree is difficult to trace. Tneie are tunny In terest in kn-nils ati.l myths concerning It. and several rnunirles cUlm the honor of glvlnx this benutiful custom to the world. One story tlls how Martin Ixither. the Krrnt rellRloua reformer, was traveling ovrr the country at nlaht. and who on lookfns; P from the anow-civ-ered ground to the sky with Its countless brilliant stars began to meditate, and on returning to hla home tried to explain Mm feelincs to hla w fe nd children i 1 1 'Inu'l y aroirnie, may te st for sny , lencth frrin lo to six Inched.

The finished filrite In Un-ysrd pieces Is then handed over to ynung women, who rut It Into Irnstlie for trimming or nsnents for Christmas trees, which con sist of stars, p'cturee with tinsel frames. coraurop.ss. baskets, hills with tinsel tHmmlnirs, etc. little girls pull the small pieces of frlnire Intn the shape of wheels with no outer rim, hut with many spoke, and pile them Into lota of one dosen. rs-r-,;s THIS STORE OPEN EVENINGS UNTIL CHRISTMAS wtam These are carried to another table, where they are transformed by the aid of em bossed colored picture of Kanta Claua Into gllttcrlna; tree ornaments. All pieces are put together with clue or wire, and there la Just aa much care used In bav in; the part fit correctly an there la In the manufacture of the moat useful pro duct, and thousand are made exactly the seme alio. Paper Trlnnlntt. At another table stria string class ball on wire and surround them with tinsel, a .V n woM.be.went Tnio the j T den and cut a little fir tree which prytlco tha girt become, a profl !" hi 1 v he h. fsst- c"nt worker. Paper baakeU ara made. ..nursed to the nursery, where he fast wied candle on Its branches and Hunted them. Ono of tlie popular pictures In Germany shows Luther and his family aeated about the Chrlstma tree. The Scandinavians claim that the tree sprang from the Mood-soaked soil where two lover, were killed, because, run the legend, during the Cbrltma season mysterious lights appeared on pin trees which no wind could extinguish. The Trench, too. have a ChHstmaa tre atory. It relates how a horo of the thirteenth century found a irliranllc tree with It tranche covered with candle, some of which were upside down, and on the top n a vision of a child with a halo about Ita head. The knight asked the pope for an explanation of the wonderful alght. and waa told by ths holy father that the tree represented mankind, the Child the Bavlor, and tba candle good sd bad being. gi. Wlnfrcd's Legend Another Oerman legend point to BL Wlnfrtd a the originator of tha Chrlst- u tree Idea. Th atory relate that after converting; aome of tha Druid h hewed down a giant tree which thay had been worshiping. Aa ha raised tha blade there waa a shower of atar and a whirl ing wind passed over the forest and the tree was gripped from It roots and leu with terrific force, putting Into four seo Uon. Just behind It was a amall fir trea which remained unharmed. Sir Wln- frted then epoke t tha awa-atrieken people who also witnessed the remarkable Incident: 'This little tree, a young child of tha foreat. .hall be your holy trea to night It la th wood of peace, for your bouses are built of fir; It la th lgn of endless life, for Ita leave ara avr green, a., km it mints to heaven. Let thla h. called tha tree of the Chriat child; gather about It -not In the wood, but In ... t,nma There It will shelter no WVTU iiutlitw, " deed of blood, but loving gift and rite of kindness." BtlU another legend, which la rather vague, trace It origin to the great trea Yggdraall. of Norse mythology, and yet another telle u that It may be revival of tha ptna tree of the Roman Saturn alia. Thea tree, according to Virgil, were decorated with Image of Bacchus. 8lr George Birds ood. who la an emi nent authority on ancient cutom. be Uevea that the Chrlstma trea la derived from tha ancient Egyptian practice of decking houae at the time of the winter solstice with branchea of palm, th eymbot of Ufa triumphant over death, and therefora perennial life In1 th re newal of each bounteou year; and the upportera of these suggestion point to tha fact that pyramid of green paper covered with flower are atlll ubtltuted In some part of Germany tor Chrlstma tree. All th legends enow that In me diaeval tlroea there we a tradition of holiness Investing an Illuminated tree. Another well known antiquarian tella ua that tha Jew celebrated their r eact of Chaauckah or Lights, also known aa th Feast of Dedication, at tha season of tha birth of Christ; therefore, thera must have been twinkling light In every Jewish boms In Bethlehem and Naiareth at th time of tho Chrlat-Ctaltd birth. This Is claimed by many to ha tha origin of Uie lighted Cbrlstmaa trea. There seems to be no way of authentl eating any of these legend, and perhaps th merging of them all ha led to th world-wide use of th Christmas tree. Aa far' back aa 1608 tha Christ maj tree la mentioned aa a feature of th Chrlstma season. Tha manuscript telling of this was found soma years ago In Btrasburg, Germany- Record show that Queen Caroline had a Christina tree at tha palace In Munich In V30. In a tha Duchess Helena of Orleans introduced tha Chrlstmaa tra la Paris, but this trea was brought in with It root and planted la a hug tub, and thl I tha style of th French Chrlst maa tree at preaent there tha American Christmaagarden la not used. Queen Vic toria'a marriage to a German prince) led to tha Introduction of th Christmas tree tn England, and It la aald that on of )o Vlctorla'a greatest Joy waa aupr Intes&ox the decorating of tha trea for tba royal children. PeeklBB tha Tre, Tba Idea of decking tha tre with imstmntt and fancy ornament also originated tn th German mptra, and wtth very few exception. ven In thl country, th manufacturer of Christmas tree) srusmU ar of Teutonic ancestry. Th glass bail so popular In trea trim too, by th thousand, and these ara used for holding fancy Ice for Christmas par tie well as tor Chrlstmaa tree derora tlon. Home again there Is a crimping ma chine uaed, and this time for paper. The little Instrument Is no longer than a lead pencil sharpener and Is turned by hand and glvea tha paper a crepe effect. The baskets ara of various colors, and, Ilk th ornaments, are uniform In site and each handle must be perfectly shaped snd glued so as not to allow raw edges. Many of them are trimmed with gilt paper cut out tn lace-Ilka patterns. Cornucopias, too, form a part of our trea decorations. and the are, perhaps, th most popular owing to their Inexpenalveneas. Tha tin sel Is put on the baskets and cornucopias by machinery, and thla Instrument la very Ilka the one used In shoe factories for fastening oa shoe buttons. Thl Instru ment, too, can be worked by a boy. The tinsel, which has been cut to the desired length by girls. Is held by the operator on the edge of the baaket Ha presses a pedal with hla foot and one and of the tinsel la fastened. There Is a twist of th hand, another pre of th pedal and another fastening I made, and so on until six stitches of wire complete the work. The cornucopias ara decorated by the us of th earns kind of a machine. Th garland are made by th tinsel be ing puckered on ft string by a machine, thus forming th pretty llver and gold garland which play such an Important part In tree trimmings. It I mad In various colors and from half an Inch to three and one-half Inchea In width, and usually In lengths of ten yards. Th spools of tinsel wire ara placed on reels lust as in the fringe making, and tha machinery doe th rest-tlee the tinsel firmly to a strong. .The operator must, of course, watch closely and see that tho delicate wlr does not get tangled. The wast tinsel Is used to throw over the tree loose ' to represent a shower or liver. AL KING POINTS WITH PRIDE TO MAMMOTH PALM LEAVES Al King of th grocery department at IJsyden Bros., insist that ha has the most elaborate Chrlstmaa decoration of anyone. Hla chief baal of thla claim consists of soma palm leave about thirty feet long which someone In California put In a car of orange which war received by Hayden Bros. 'Wedneaday.
