It Is from the Druids thnt the cus tom of decorating our churches and homes with evergreens 'comes, for they believed thnt all the sylvan sprites flocked together on these boughs, thero to remain until the warm weath er came. In midwinter tho Druids sent around sprigs of Ivy and mistle toe to remind the people to decorate their dwellings with evergreens. In oitler to propitiate tho sylvan sprites and secure protection from frosts nnd wintry blasts. Holly berries long have been considered as giving wonderful power when worn In the shape of n wreath, which must, bu made and worn In Imitation of a sncred crown of thorns and of berries, and the wearer of this crown must go alone at mid night on Christmas and sit In the dark, and, In accordance with that nnclent tradition, when .worn on Christinas eve the holly wreath will evoke visions or spirit tonus coining in the air to slug their Noel songs, and all the blasts will he seen to kneel down In worship. The Yule cake and Yule log, too, have their Important part In this an cient Saxon tradition for the Christ ians festival season. The cake had the same powers as the bride cake has on Christmas night. The iile log was used to light the Christmas lire the next year because It preserved the house from lire during the year and subdued the spirit ol the Humes. Its powers were bestowed In the days of the Druids, when the belting llivs were lighted and the brands secured from the lire to light tho (Ire the next yenr. The ancient Saxons burned the Yule log as a symbol of the turning of the sun toward spring. Even tlie moon contributed its shnro to Christmas superstitions, for, as tho legend runs. If Christmas comes during tho waning of the moon we shall have a very good year, and the nearer to the full moon the better. Holland, pei'hnps. has (he prettiest custom of all nations for the Christ mas festival. On the night before Christmas In commemoration of the star of the east, the young men of their towns assemble and carry through the dark streets n large, bright star; all the people go out to greet and give to the bearers of this "star or Bethlehem." as It Is called, alms for the poor. Seven days before their New Year, the Chinese worship the Kitchen God by preparing dishes of candy and vari ous sweets with which they smear his mouth. Lnter they burn him amid the tiring off of crackers, tho deity being sent up In a chariot of smoko and lire to a conference with the king of the celestial regions. The Idea of smear ing his mouth with sweets Is that he may not say anything but honey .ed words, or that his lips may stick together and so prevent his talking too much. Tho Kitchen God. according to story, had been III treated by his brother and slster-ln-lnw, who were very rich and had many servants, hut allowed their brother to work with the servants anil have dinner with them. Their cruelty developed day after day. until at last they treated him heavonly by seating him In a sedan raalr made or paper. The creation of giving gifts at Christmas onine. not from presents of gold and sliver given to the Christ child, as ninny believe but from an old custom of priests putting on board of all outgoing ships a box of alms, This box was opened at Christmas time and masses said" for the givers DIL HAROLD FENNER Osteopath Over Hlrschfcld's Office Phone 333 No reasonable offer refused for quick sale.
