it the very best present he re-ceived. The last suggestion is for the one,whoever he or she may be, to whom younever know just what to give. Whenwe ask our Tom what present heenjoys most, he always says, Mrs.Prossers pie. Mrs. Prosser is a dearold lady who, every Christmas, makesdozens of mince pies, and sends them inspicy showers to all her friends. Ahint to the wise. Every woman shouldcount as her chief accomplishment the ability to make at least one especiallynice thing to eat. Cake, candy, saltednuts, pickle, or marmalade, it does notmatter so much what it is, if only it hasbecome an art as well as a science. AtChristmas time this is her last resort.The friend who already has a surfeit ofthings more costly than she can affordto buy, the man who never seems towant anything, the already too-giftedsmall boy, each and every one will ap-preciate the dainty parcel that does nothave to be hung nor set nor packed away,but appeals directly to a primal in-stinct and fills a long-felt want.
