Don't neglect to . tie it

properly. It is handled ut least live times lief ore It reaches its destination. Don't lorget to write your own return address on all parcel post matter. Don't guess at the postage and give your friends the pleasure of payini: "postage due." y Don't plaster Red Cross stamps on the face of packages or letters; take care not to "seal" parcel post packages with them. It raises the rate. Don't forget that a little thoughtfulness on your part can help to make Christinas happier for Uncle Sam's men, his horses and his automobiles. Do mail ariy, preferably before December 20th, writing on your packages : Xot to be oi'nei Until Christin a.." ' Do your best to use the post oflices in the forenoon, the earlier the better. Do write legibly, both the Address to which you are sending the gift and your own return address. Do be courteous nnd "Christmassy" to the post oflice men who serve you. They are handling thousands of pieces of mail matter. Do be brief at the counter. You keep someone else waiting-if you are loaded like a: express truck, with packages ami foolish questions.

A morning jacket, a boudoir cap, a powder puff and little hand mirror, all owing their charm to lovely ribbons, are j:ift suggestions appcarinj: above. The jacket and cap are made by setting together strips of narrow satin ribbon and Val lace.

These should be only what a college man would call "grinds" perhaps a tiny tin piano for a would-be performer, a lantern for the one the points of whoso jokes are dillicult to see. a placid paper golf bag for the enthusiastic player, and so on, each with a thyme rr quotation,- say:; Harper' Bazar. If one considers a goosv a somewhat undignllied bird, ducks may be c:tcl;:::igod for It, either the domestic fowl or the more expensive canvasback or redhead. Fried celery Is very good with duck, the crispest pieces dropped in batter and then cooked in deep . fat. ; Hu t the upplf sauce croquettes sli ;:!d not be omitted even with tii:.--. For this informal dinner there i.s a very good and immeuoiM drink to serve with the heavy coursesweet cider, spiced and sugared to taste, cooked ten minutes aod servcl hot. YULETIDE THORN TREE SAVED

E of the most beautiful legend

Unas is that of the Clas-

tonhury thorn. The thorn tree grew at Glastonbury Abbey, in Somersetshire, and was supposed to have dveloped from the stalY of Joseph of Arimatliea. According to the legend, Joseph came to Glastonbury and while he was resting on n hill, afterward known as Weary All hill, hn stuck his staff In the earth. Tin staff immediately grew green and budded, ami at Christmas time it blossomed into beautiful flowers. One chronicler states that during

i Queen Elizabeth's reign the thorn had

a double trunk, but that a somewhat bigoted Puritan, who disliked the tree becapse to his mind it smacked of popery, started to cut it down, and succeeded In demolishing one of tho trunks. A miracle rescued the remaining trunk of the tree by causing a chip of wood to lly up and, hit the Puritan in the eye. while at the same than he slipped and cut his leg. Later the tree was grubbed up, but a number of smaller trees raised from slips of the original are said to be
