CJDWAHD S. MARTIN, who Is A never hnpplor tlinn when y writing nuout oiniureii, nnu a characteristic article In the Metropolitan Magnzlne entitled "Chrlstmiis nnd Children." In the course of Its lines Mr. Mnrlln In troduces ii suggestion that Is extreme- , ly unplonsiint, hut ho elenrs It nwny de lightfully, lie says: ' "Consider, If there wore to he n lapse of now bnbloa for even so short u time as ten years, Santa Claus would fade out of active existence; nnd be come a mere tradition to ho rend nhout In hooks. A failure of the Infant crop for fifteen years would result In the decay cf the habit of hanging up stockings, mid only an tiquarians would nny longer tnke the trouble to have Christmas trees. Of course, in such an unthinkable con tingency as tluit our world would bo In such a desperate state of dejection that It would have no fun, though It would go through the motions of ex istence from habit. Hut the kind of Christmas keeping wo are used to would be. knocked on the head. That lasts simply nnd solely because- there nro children. Tho people who have the children maintain the current Christmas practices for their chil dren's sake, the older children mnlu- taln them for their own snke, and the folks who hnvc no children keep thorn up for old times' snko and because it Is the custom of tho country. "Whnt nn Intolerable suggestion that la, of there being no children to be had under fifteen years old ; no babies to blink nnd coo at tho Christmas tree candles; no five-year-olds to come downstairs In their nightgowns after their stockings; no soven-yenr-olds to wnfte up everyone in the house hours before breakfast; no ten-year-olds to sit at the Christmas bonrd and ,be warned against over-indulgence In plum pudding. No consuming Interest In dolls nnd no market for them; no lnborlous searching of the toy shops, nnd harassing Indecision whether to get the same old toys or tho new ones ; no active concern about Jack knives and sleds and roller skates, No hav ing In but It Is much too awful to go on about. Let us 1)0 devoutly thnnk- ful that It Is only nn awful Idea with out basis; that there nre lots and lots of children In commission, of all kinds nnd ngos. and myriads more coming. whatever croaks there may bo nhout rnco suicide." - -2340 GIVE HER A HOOVER and you give her a life time reminder , of your thoughtfulness. dhe HOOVER North Platte Light & Power Co.

A great deal has been said, written nnd sung nhout the plum pudding or old England, hut centuries ngo It bad n formidable rival for epicurean favor kifown as plum-pottage or porridge. It consisted of beef or mutton made Into a broth, thickened with brown brend, which whs - then thoroughly boiled after raisins, currants, prunes, cloves, mnce and ginger had been add ed. This dish Is now entirely obsolete, though "Poor Richard's Alinnnae" mentions It as late as 1750, and a Mrs. Frhzer, who published a cook-book in Edinburgh In 1701, announcing her self on Its title page us the only teach er of the gnjnt art of cookery In that city, gives a recipe for making It. while Brand, the popubjr antiquary, tells how he partook of It at a Christ mas dinner In the mansion of nn old English gentleman In 1801, but It has long since been wholly supplemented by plum pudding. The origin of the latter Is veiled Into obscurity. Tho curliest cook-book which makes any reference to It Js tho one by Mrs. Fnizer nlrcndy referred to as contain ing a recipe for plum pottage.
