j     The following item is  all   from   the
I Rockville Centre Owl:
What do you mean "may be I the death of him?"
"Bro. Pearsall of   the   Re¬ view should have h care;    hi? humorous proclivities may be the death of him if he "don't watch   out. "    Let   him   talk not of Bro^ Lott,   who   has   h rich sense of humor but keeps it under control. "—Observer. In the last   sentence   the   Owl   says "talk not," where the   Observer   item they ((Uoted snid   "take note."    It   IS a serious proposition to be  accused   of "humorous proclivities."
MESSENGERS DO NOT
NEED TO GIVE KKCEIPT I have been asked if the new law re¬ quiring the tax of 1 cent on bills of lading was applicable to delivery of packages by public messenger service, and I wrote Mr.Keith, Collector of In ternal Revenue of this district, asking him about this, and he writes that "the law 'is intended to apply only as to what is known as 'common carriers of freight' or 'expre.ss and freight' and the receipt given by a local mes¬ senger need not be stampt."
A NICK NEIGHBORLY SiJaP Oor esteemed contemporary, toe Nassau Post, is planning a Christmas celebration for the poor children of the village, aa noted in this paper be¬ fore. They ran an entertainment with the assistance of a number of the lad¬ ies of the village, recently, in which they did not ask us to assist, and the week after the entertainment they published this nice little item:
We take this opportunity of public- ally expressing our thanks to the sis¬ ter printers and our merchants. The lickets were donated by the South Side Observer, the placards by the Hemp¬ stead Journal, and the programs by the Hempstead Sentinel. When you are in a position to reciprocate, do so. I refer particularly to the last para graph. Perhaps it is hardly worth noticing, but in view of the fact that the publishers.of the Nasasu Post have on several occasions urged us to help | them out of a bole by letting them have stock on which to print their' newipaper, and the further fact that in printing their newspaper they did { not get the work done by either of the papers mentioned above, it is rather difficult to comprehend the necessity for this nasty little dig.

Eagle Injures Ellison \
The   follovving   item    is    published i I from   the  Brooklyn   Fiagle.     We   will ^ ndmit, that in its entirety, without in- j terviewing Mr. Ellison, we would   not i dare to take the credit for it,    so   will ' give the Eagle all credit due: I     J.   Huyler   Ellison,   of   41   Wallace I Street, jnst   home   from   Virginia   on ! Friday, exhibits a wound on   his   hand which he received in a battle  with   an i ; eagle. j
Mr. Ellison has a plumbing contract ¦ in Virginia. A few days ago Ellison I heard a whir of wings and ssw an | I eagle flying toward him. Ellison's; employees shouted for him to duck. ; The eagle, possibly realizing that El-^ lison is an Elk, made another attack, j but was frightened off. \
Ellison and his employees after a' hard hattie captured the eagle. Its ! talons lacerated Ellison'^ hand. On the trip to their boarding house the j eagle gave more battle, till Ellison! gave what seemed to be its final qui- | etus.
Arriving at the boarding house they | threw its inanimate body on the piaz¬ za. Next morning the eagle sat on the railing, and as Ellison came nut the door, flew at hlan. One of the men knocked it over with a club. All examined it, and after declaring the bird dead, it was wrapped in a news paper.
The following day Ellison started for New York. The eagle was in heavy wrapping paper, securely tied. Thirty-six hours later Ellison was in his office in Manhattan.
"What is that bundle you have un¬ der your arm? It seems to be ani> mated," said Huyler's brother, Eg¬ bert.
"Oh," said Huyler, "that's an eagle I killed after . hard battle down at Cape Charles a few days ago, and I brought it home to have it mounted." Huyler cut the heavy cord, and re¬ moved the paper. The supposed dead bird raised hia head and looked around but was too weak to stand, although it tried to. A taxidermist took the bird , away to be mounted.
The bird measured about seven leet '¦ from tip to tip of its wings. '

CHRISTMAS SPIRIT ABIDES
Wondrous indeed was the mitdon of the Christ Child! He gave himself to the world on the first Christmas day, and with him came every other good gift.
With him cante bountiful tables and good cheer in lordly and homely homes and happy parents and merry children. Men's hearts thawed out, and long facss grew shorter, and sad eyes twinkled with glee, and evergreens sparkled with candles and bore marvelous fruit of lov¬ ing gifts, simple or costly, in millions of homes.
The treea wither; the toys get broken; the groaning ta¬ bles are lightened of their load. Dec. 25 is succeeded by the cold, dark days of mid¬ winter, but the spirit of Christmas abides. In a way every day is a Christmas day, for the Christ Spirit does not take Its flight. Every day of the year ministering spirits go about their humble, honnely tasks. Every day some one is catching the blessed contagion of Christ¬ mas and learning that it is more blessed to give than to receive.
Ah, yes, every day is a Christmas day to him who Isarns this secret of secrets! —Rav. P. 8. Honson, D. D.

\ CHRISTMAS    AGAIN!
Once more the hallowed, "¦ graciOviE Christmas time is upon the earth. At last the long >-esr of toil over tools and aits »r.c\ industries is all but ended. The Christmas festival, dedicated to happi ness and good will, has come. This morning the whole city has w.ikrntd to qur.H ruple joy. The very atmos phere pf our earth is rosy, stained with the rich colors of the heart. All windows are bright with holly and ever¬ green. Parents have discov¬ ered that It is more blessed to give than to receive. Joy runs riot in the heart of little chil¬ dren. Youth overflows with animal spirits. Suddenly the aged have shed their years and become young again. Be¬ fore the light had fully dawn¬ ed the >.arols had begun to be heard in the churches. And every passing hour will be¬ hold larger multitudes throng¬ ing to these temples of the soul. All feel that no flowers are sweat enough, no songs bright enough, no gifts rich enough for the Christmas day. For once all strife and enmity have disappeared from the market placa.—Rev, New ell D.
