2. Divorce yourself entirely from all business cares for the day. 3. Give a cheerful greeting to every one you meet, and especially to your own family. 4. Remember the dumb brute, and give it a little Christmas cheer. 5. GO TO CHURCH. Don’t apply what the minister to your neighobr. Take it to yourself, and profit from it if it makes you wince. 6. Make up your mind that vou will spend one year in an earnest effort to be a little better than you ever were before. 7. Eat your portion of the turkey only, and let the rest of the family have at least a smell. 8. Do this and you will not be annoyed with indigestion after your Christmas dinner.
