"With very little organization and with hardly any at­ tempt at careful advertising, the sale that year brought in, nevertheless, over $186,000 for a nth tubereulofclnwork in various parts of the United States, In 1909, with more thorough organ­ isation, the Sale was increased to $230,0001 1ft 1910 to nearly $410,000; ire 1911, to over $330,000, and oven 40,000,000 Sends, netting $400,000, were sold last year. Red Cross seals Ottn be purchased The women a t the convention of tho National Suffrage Association, •'which lately met a t Washington, wero keen­ ly disappointed a t the failure of Pres­ ident Wilson to recommend their cause to the attention of Congress 1n his message to th a t body. Dr. Abna Shaw, in referring to it in the.convention, said he had missed the opportunity of hie life. It ,tesome­ what difficult to understand what his motive in ignoring the question could be, especially When i t waa generally understood he was not opposed to the cause. The time was when it might safely be overlooked, but that time la p a st The anti-suffragists were also on hand at Washington to block the way as fa r as possible; Their contention Is that women do not want to vote, tha t la the great majority do n o t The fact is in the States where equal suf­ frage exists do not bear out this state­ ment, Ail men do not vote, indeed many remain: away from, the polls when important Issues are a t stake, hut that is no reason why all men should 'be disfranchised. Because some do not want to vote Is no rea­ son why those who do should be de­ prived o f the privilege, The sentiment of the women Who have been emancipated is expressed in the. following verse: Now we're counted as men’s equal, With no shadow of doubt; We will rally to the conflict, With a glad, triumphant shout, And wf.th ballots for our bullets .We wilt shoot the traffic out. —Mr M.

J Many popular Christmas hymns have a most itjJeresting history. Those who have heard the waits and enrol* ©ra sing ‘‘Hark, the Herald Angel* $Ingl” on Christmas' eve will be aston­ ished to know that many years ago it waft rendered ”Hntk. .How All the Welkin Rings!*’ aud was sung to the tune of “See.--the Conquering Hero Contes,’* When this former wording wits adopted'ip Hte new hymn book of the “Hymns Ancient and Modern.” there was a great storm Of criticism from those who prefer the modern ver aion. The hymn, wnq written by Charles Wesley, ’ The author of '’Christians, Awake. Salute the Happy Morn!" was John Byrom, Manchester's famous man Of letters,who wnsbotn at Kersnl In 1091 Byrom had several children, hut. like mnny another father, there was a fn vorlte. This child was a little gin named Dolly. A few daya previous to Christmas Mr. Byrom, after having a romp vtfith the fnvorite. Doily, promised to write her something nice for Christmas morning. On the morn Ing of the'great day, when she sat down to breakfast, she found on her plate an envelope, addressed to her in her father's handwriting, tt wns the first thing She opened, and, to her great delight, it proved to be a Christ mas carol addressed to her, and to her alone. Another very popular Christmas hymn Is that entitled “As With Glad ness Men of Old.” It Is remarkable that tills cheerful hymn was written a t a time of-great depression. The author, Willi; m Chatterton Dix. who died In 1000 had been seriously III for U long titm, and he wns feeling dls eonsolate and miserable. One evening, after he had been some weeks in bed, be felt a great deal better, and while in this improved state he eoneeivad the idea of writing a ' Christmas hymn, end as a result of, this*we get "As With Gladness Men of Old,” . i ’’Once In Royal David’s City” is the i most popular Christmas hymn for chil­ dren. It wns written hy Sirs. Ales nnder, who also wrote those famous hymns.
