When Phillip Received That Christmas Gift PRISCILLA ivim milking pumpkin pies. The fruit cake had been ripened and the turkey lay In festive state, stuffed with sage mid onion. Although It was really n chicken, one , didn't mention Hint, no more than one mentioned the fnct Hint daddy was Santa Claus, or that the little blnok stockings wlilch hung before the, ' hearth fire would not be very full. There was only one blot in Priscilla's Christmas joy. “I can’t give I'hillip anything,” she said to her mother, ■ worriedly. “It isn't ns if he were n youngster and satisfied with red-yarn knitted mittens, or ns If lie were a poor boy, even, but when lie sends mo orcliids. mother, I —l don't know wliat to do.” Phillip was tlie young man from Hie city who lind been exceeding If attentive to Priscilla. Flowers he sent, and fruits and dainty cmidies, but not the simple, homely kind to which she had been accustomed, ft was not this nir of richness though that made Priscilla's heart bint quick and tlirilly. It was tlie simple, boyish vtay of him. Dear? Yes, she had just admitted it to herself. And now ho was coming to Christ mas dinner with her mid her hnppy. humble family mid Priscilla in her tin worldliness, felt Hint she had no gift for him. Her mother, though, was wiser Siie looked with a tender, wist fill pride at her fair young daughter, the daughter with soft eyes shining, witli hair curled : gayly in the steam of the fragrant kitchen, witli rose-petal cheeks, blushed warm by young love and b\ Christmas. She finished her cooking and set Hie long white table where the hearth fire glowed and Hie Christmas tree was festive witli rod and tinsel. Thon Phillip had come and tlie din ner was progressing, fluffy potatoes and gravy all brown, tlie roasted tur key which was a chicken, really, the old fruit cake and. last of all. the spicy pumpkin pie. The mother watched and smiled, but her eyes were moist a little, for every bit of food Priscilla served was as a gift. H only I'lii! could know. But no one could explain to T’hil ifter tlie meal was over and extrava gantly praised, the rich boy from tlie city seemed comfortably at home. H< and Priscilla took a walk through tin crisp, snowy Christmas starlight an<’ still she could not tell him that she had no gift for him. Back to Hie front steps they came, then out of tlie shad ows Buddie jumped and ran into tin house. Phillip saw the mistletoi first and suddenly there was no need for explanations. Tlie stars mid tlx rnowfliikes saw him take Hie sweetest gift of ail. —Maxine Chapman. ((E). 1927. Western Newspaper Union.) ■'' z -KI z - > . - (!

COMB SAGE TEA INTO GRAY HAIR Darkens Beautifully and Restores Its Natural Color and Lustre At Once Common garden sage brewed into a ; heavy tea. with sulphur and alcohol' idded, will turn gray, streaked and i ’aded hair beautifully dark and lux- j niant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sul-1 >hur recipe at home, though, is troub-| esome. An easier way is to get the eady-to-use preparation improved by ' lie addition of other ingredients, a arge bottle, for only 75 cents, at drug stoves, known as "Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound," thus avoiding a ’ot of muss. While gray, faded hair is not sin?ul, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractiveness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one j •an tell, because it does it so natur-i illy, so evenly. You just dampen a iponge or soft brush with it and draw , his through your hair, taking one 1 miall strand at a time; by morning! ill gray hairs have disappeared. Afer another application or two your lair becomes beautifully dark, glossy, ! >ott and luxuriant and you appear ■ ,’ears younger, > A car of CHESTNUT HARD COAL on track at my coal yard, at $13.75 a ton.
