Christmas—
Tomorrow is Christmas. How many
'fond memories cluster about the day?
Around a thousand hearthstones fam
ilies will be reunited. Absent ones,
and how many there are, will be re
membered by loving missives. Cards,
gifts, little mementoes of the day,
win go flying from one end of the
country to the other. Pleasant sur
prises, loving remembrances and
friendship’s tokens vril! gladden a
thousand hearts. Costly souvenirs of
the day will adorn the gilded homes
of the rich, which humbler presents
will make glad the homes ot the poor.
But not all of these, for where pov
erty site enthroned, fortune does not
bestow many gifts, even on a day
when all the world la glad, when hap
piness and good cheer crowne to
many boards. But *twas ever thus.
Shadows, deep shadows, throw their
combre hues over many a home, on
joyous day. How many of those
favored by fortune, of those .blessed
with an abundance of this world’s
goods, will remember the poor? Let
ns hope that many, very many, will.
How blessed It la to give. Everybody
"ought, to be made happy on Christ
inas. Then ’do yo&r'part toward mak-

poor. They are God’s children. Your
sleep will be sounder and your

happiness, It for but this one day.
to some poor neglected family.. It
will not coat much. May the day
bring a full measure of happiness to
every household in the land.—The
Tlmes-Entorprlse, December 24, 1887.
Many to Receive Christmas Gifts—
The Chrlatmas Stocking Fund has
been admirably administered this
year, and the donations have been
very generous. There are more fam
ilies and more children on the list
than ever before, and it has been n
work of great Interest and much love
on the part of many who have con
tributed, and many who are doing the
actual work or distribution.
The donations are put In the store
formerly occupied by ,Mr. Bean, fine
boxes of substantial eatables and
warm clothing for tho unfortunate,
and In every homo where there are
children a atocklng, amply filled with
splendid toys, fruit and many other
delightful trunkets is sent along, one
for each child.
Nobody will ever understand what
these things mean to tho poor unless
they have been fortunate enough to
go around while they are being dis
tributed. It Is a revelation that will
last for many days and will stimulate
and encourage the spirit that pro
mote* thia giving to those In
and despair on this glad day.
The boxes are going to be distrib
uted this afternoon and Mrs. W. M.
Singletary, in charge, says that every
body la going to get aomething they
need, and something for the Christ
mas season also.
