CHRISTMAS AT ST PAUL'S CATHOLIC CHURCH As customary services will be held in the Catholic Church on Christmas Day to commemorate the greatest religious festival of the Christia n V e »r, the Incarnation of the Son of God—God coming to earth in
human form.
The word Christmas—means the mass of Christ—because on the feast of our savior’s birth the principle service throughout the Catholic world is the sacrifice of the mass The first mass will be at midnight tonight in memory of the hour which tradition tells Us Christ was born; also to remind us of the Eternal generation of the son i n the bosom of the Father. The Second mass at 8 o’clock is to recall to our mind the temporal birth of Jesus of a human mother when He assumed a human body soul to redeem a sinful race. The third mass w^ll be at Bainbridge, This third service is a reminder of the spiritual birth Christ in the souls of men by the
grace of his coming.

Manchu Woman on Street* of Peking Dec Rouge, but In Manner Pronounced Clumsy. The first strikingly surprising cuatom iiuiung the citizens of Peking Is that the women wear skirts, Juiues A. Muller writes lu the National Geographic Magazine. To u traveler fresh from America, this would seem as it should be, hut to one resident lb the land of trousered women It appears almost immodest! They not only wear skirts; they further approximate western usage by painting their faces. Broadway Is nature Itself in comparison; for In Peking there are no light, artistic touches, hut hold cheek circles of red upon frankly whitened faces—cometic unabashed. These are the Manchu women. The Manchu men, descendants of the roving Tartars, go futilely about this spacious city of their fathers balancing trick birds upon their wrists; for, now that the empire Is no more, their only occupation, that of ruling, is gone, and the conquered Chinese, Immemorial city dwellers, are masters of the capital. It is a significant Illustration of the age-old ability of the Chinese to absorb and enervate their conquerors. A Little Love Story. A dreamer and a man of action loved u woman. The dreamer said: “I shall write verses in her praise; they will touch her vanity and she will love nie for- them." But the man of action said: “How old fashioned! I shall corner the stock market, and that will bring her.” So the dreamer wrote verses, and he Induced a friend of his. who ran a ten-cent magazine to print them. And the man of action cornered something or other and 1 time a billionaire. In the meantime the girl married n man who Inherited his money, and lived happy ever after. But the dreamer was so proud of Ids versos that lie didn't care; and the man of action was so busy that he didn't care. The only one to suffer was (he man she married Exchange.
