I have been a -user o the Hawkoyo Tires for
several years and can't say too much for them. I
do not believe that there is any better tiro made
than the Hawkeyo Tire. Furthermore, I wish to
say that my judgement on these tires is not derived
from my experience alone, I have sold a good many
of them and they have always given satisfaction.
I sold a sot to Dr. Twinem and several more thru
out this Country nnd they are all more than pleased
with the milcago they have boon getting out of
theo tires.

USfc OF CHRISTMAS STOCKING
Good St. Nicholas, Saint of Fourth
Century of Christian Era,
Founder of Custom.
I
IIRISTMAS stockings have
conio down to us from the
good St. Nicholas, who was
a snlnt of the fourth cen
tury of tho Christian era
and was born December 0, 312, In
Lycln, Asln Minor. Ho was regarded
as especially tho patron saint of chil
dren, young girls and sailors. Tho
Chrlstmns stocking custom nrosc ns
follows :
It seems that St. Nicholas, who was
the archbishop of Myra, lived In the
same town with an Impoverished no
bleman who because ho had no por
tions to give his daughters, and Indeed
no means with which to support them,
was about to sell thorn Intollfe of
sin. St. NIcholns, who whs accus
tomed to dispense- bis largo fortune In
gifts of charity, resolved to rescue the
young women. As he npproadhod,
their houso wondering how ho should
proceed, tho moon shone out and dis
played an open window. Instnntly St.
Nicholas threw n pnrso of gold in nt
tho window which, foiling at the feet
of the father of the girls, enabled him
to portion his oldest daughter. Tho
second time St. Nicholas visited the
house ho also wns nblo to throw n
purse of gold through nn open window,
thus providing for the portion of tho
second daughter. On tho third visit
tho father, watching for his benefac
tor, cast himself nt the feet of tho
snlnt and cried:
"Oh, St. Nicholas, servant of God.
why seek to hide thyself?"
The saint mndo tho fnthcr promise
not to rcvcnl his benefactions. From
this hnblt of bestowing gifts In secret
and under tho cloak of night nroso tho
practice of putting out shoes or stock
ings for the younger members of the
family, so that tho good snlnt would
be able to fill them without being spied
on. At ono time It was the eistom
for young women pupils In convents
on tho oven of Snlnt Nicholas to hang
their new silk stockings on tho door
of the npartmcnt of tho nbbess. They
would also write notQS calling the
nttontlon of the good St. NIcholns
to their stockings. In the morning
when the convent pupils who had not
gone homo for tho holidays arose they
Invariably found their stockings-filled
with sweetmeats.
BE SURE GIFTS WILL PLEASE
In Making Same Articles for Friends
It Is Well to Be Sure of
Appreciation.
WOMAN tells in recently
published inngozlnes ha.w
she has n "pillow Chrlst
mns" for the benefit of her
many friends. She con
sulted the piece bag, and from It drew
forth the materials for mnklng any
quantity of dainty sofa pillows, all des
tined for different friends. The cost
of the materials was chiefly that spent
for silk cords, for embroidery silk nnd
for filling for the completed pillows.
Nenrly all the pillows were made by
couching figures cut from contrasting
materials on a chosen background,
nnd tho result was completed. The
very same Idea might also he carried
into effect by the girl who love.s to
make dainty slocks. Thcro never was
a time when the prevailing stylos of
fered such a dainty array of collars,
and a box of assorted colors and kinds
would be welcomed by any girl friend.
There might be found In the piece
bag all sorts of bits of silk and rib
bon which could be fashioned into the
daintiest of dressy stocks, as well as
bits of lawn and percale which would
do nlcel.N for stocks for every day
wear with cotton shirt waists. The
gift of a hox of shocks might be made
vnluable if the box Itself was a thing
of beauty,, and this could be brought
to pass by the girl who is expert with
her needle, (living the same sort of
gift to a large number of people Is
perfectly proper If the gift Is one which
Is calculated to please cw i-jhody.
We've heard the story of a nice old
lady who 'always made pin-cushions
for nil her nieces and mittens for all
her nephews every year. It was said
that her plan gave great pleasure to
ono person, the aunt. It's n good Iden
to lie sure your gifts will be appreci
ated before you go Into the wholesale
mnnufaclure of one style of article for
mnny people.

The Sociai
of Jesus
1(5 . J. Dl'NCAN-CUMtlv.
(Chisago KvtnlriR Poit
EVER did the world need more than now to hear
the authoritative voice of Jesus.'
If we are to bring order out of chaos, peace
out of conflict, brotherhood out of clash of clas3
and group, we must return in humble spirit to
the Bethlehem manger, to the Nazareth shop, to
the market place, the seashore or the mountain
side, whore the message of Jesus was spoken to
the hearts of men.
Jesus believed in man. It is well to empha
size this fact in an ago of cynicism. There was
no room for despair in His philosophy. He came
into a world where forco and fraud and oppression prevailed,
and to the hour of His triumphant death He never doubted
that love and justice and freedom wero possible in human re
lations. Jesus believed in man as a potential Son of God. His ideal'
for society contemplated the emancipation of man from the
control of material things. Mammon should not rule; there
should be no occasion for anxious thought concerning any jieed
of tho body; the spiritual nature of man should be free to
realize its highest destiny.
In the program that Ho worked out as Ho toiled at the
bench He planned that service should be tho motive and co
operation tho method in human industry. We have substituted
self-advantage for service, and mutual exploitation for co
operation. While these rule in motive and method we shall
nevdr realize the happiness He desired for us the happiness
we seek.
Jesus set small store by charity. The philanthropy of
almsgiving was to Him a mere cloak for tho imperfections and
inequities of human relations. He put all tho emphasis of
His teaching and example upon justice and love. In a world
where these prevailed charity would be unnecessary.
We have traveled so far from the ideals of Jesus it is not
easy to restore them. But there is no other way to find a per
manent solution for the troubles that disturb us. His road is
the only road. It involves sacrifice. We cannot avoid the cross.
But beyond Calvary lies the l'calization of our hopes.
It is not enough that the spirit of Jesus should be wor
shiped in our temples or revered in our homes. It is not enough
that His sympathy and help should be expressed in our hos
pitals, our orphanages, our institutions for the poor and the
afflicted. To be satisfied with this is to evade the real challenge
of His message and to lose the real meaning of His promise.
The spirit of Jesus must bo brought into factory and mine
and bank and railroad system; into store and office.
It must reveal to us that man is more than the machine
with which he works; that material wealth was meant to be
the servant, not the master, of the human soul ; that the mak
ing of a life is the supreme thing, for which the making of a
livelihood is merely incidental.
Until we get this vision, we will approach the solution of v
our problems without true understanding.
It is time that men who believe in Jesus should make
their faith count not merely in religious observance, but in
human relations; in civic duty; in business; in industrial man
agement; in the tasks of office and workshop.
The hope of the world rests upon the leadership of Jesus.
