Bo he,pawns the sovereign fpr sixpence, and redeems It when he soep opt for a holiday." One family who were ever rise stock­ ing hanging agp decided last Christmas that they could riot have a tree. The children were disappointed and feared a stupid day. An Ingenious sister solved the proir- lcm of gift giving Jo a somewhat novel way. She asked all the members of the fondly to wrap their gifts for each Other into neat packages, direct them plainly and leave them in the library on Christmas eve. No one was told what was to be done With the packages, and each member was sworn to secrecy, so that she did not know that the others' presents were to go into the library also. The girl divided them into groups, having one gift for each menjjrer of the family Included in a given tot. The Separate collections were then taken Into different rooms of the house end hidden m such a way that they <r- dd not ba found without considerable ^parching. On Christmas day a small boy of the family dressed In the costume of * r’hrlstmaa herald of Elizabethan (bys went through the house every h n r during tlie day blowing a trumpet rad proclaiming that a Christmas bunt; would be held in * certain room. The family had a merry rime until nil the gifts were found anC opened and enjoyed them in a leisurely way) until the next visit of the herald an hour later, ■ As the family was A large one, ihe excitement was prolonged well into the evening, and all voted it a much more interesting way of giving presents than to have them all In the morning «to;:k- luge or hupg op the Christmas tree.
