Of course the 50c lunch
attracts many.
But* there are business
then who go to the Holland
for a cheese Sandwich and
a cup of coffee.
And again there are some
who come for the “rare
dishes” not to be found on
the menu of a commonplace
restaurant.
The truth of the matter is
men like the atmosphere of
this place.
It’s diversifying and re
freshing.
And it s a nice placl for a
man to bring his wife and

His eyes were sealed to the dream of
good,
His tongue could not speak of broth-
erhood;
Lust ruled for Love and Self for
King,
And Life was a bauble io flaunt and
fling.
Then down the sky like a silver spar
'^ame a ray of light from a distant
It bathed the Syrian sea and shore
In a luminous glow ne’er seen before,
And here and there in the hearts of
men
Hope’s dying spark flamed up again,
And those who cherished the ancient
lore
Recalled the promise God made cf
yore.
Beneath that starlit Syrian sky
The shepherds looked with wondering
eye,
The village of David beyond them
When suddenly over its white roofs
swept
An angel figure on swift strong wing,
While all the stars began to sing,
And the shepherds’ hearts caught up
the strain—
'Good will, good will!” the glad re
frain.

PEACE ON EARTH.
Peace on earth, good will toward
men. These ringing words have echoed
through nineteen centuries, and in this
Christmas season are uttered in voices
loud with exultation.
Nineteen hundred and thirteen
years ago the Star of Bethlehem Shone
brilliantly in the dark, empyreau aby
of a December night. Its splendor
dazzled the beholder; its radiance was
re-inspiring. Never before had such
i irridescent body shone *9% brightly
the sky.
The people of Bethlehem and the
surrounding country knelt in attitudes
of obeisance and prayer. They thought
the heavenly visitor portended things
of unusual significance. They knew
not what, but realized something ex
tr&ordinary was taking place. The
shepherds in the fields watching their
flocks, the muleteers in the innyards
with their docile creatures, the camel
drivers going across the dreary
stretches of barren desert—all saw the
heavenly luminary and each was be
wildered, prostrating himself in offer
ing up fervent prayers.
But there were the Wise Men of the
East—Gasper, Melchoir, Balthassar—
who knew the meaning of the bright
we . re told by a divine
yoice, to follow its guidance, and act
ing upon the command wended their
way to where it shone.
After days if weary travel through
sun-parched arid deserts, past small
villages, oyer limpid streams, through
wooded lands, they reached'the poor
hovel-—the stable—over which the star
was shining as a sentinel guarding a
priceless treasure. There, in the dim
interior, upon a straw-covered man
ger, amid lowly surrounding:!, lay the
babe. And what a babe it -was! Ra
diant with light springing from% di
vine s ollrce , it was the embodiment of
purity and innocence.
. T. h °“ ° ld gray-headed men solemn-
y knelt before the child; they adored
as though it was a mighty king of
unlimited wealth and, endless posses
sions. They spread before it glisten
ing gold, sparklSig jewels, beautiful
fabrics—a king's ransom.
There was the half-nude .child, just
before it the revering old men, at its
side the doting mother, in the rear
some asses and sheep eating corn.
Such a picture! One to be painted
would tax the skill of an Angelo—a
Raphael.
That babe grew into one of the
most potent figures of the human race
a personage known to every civil
ized people. He died for His fellow
beings; what is nobler, more inspir
ing than that? Christ stands on the
loftiest eminence of life, and the halo
around His head is the crown of re
ward for His unbounded, unrestricted
love. He was crucified and suffered
tortures untold, yet in His last mo
ments of life, His pain-racked face
The spacious dining room was a

decorations, and red shaded lights

In the center of each charmingly
appointer table was a plateau of fruit
surrounded by holly and smilax, and
on the tables were compots holding
crystalized fruits and candies.
At each child’s place was a horn and
of course they formed a hand which
played between courses. A sumptuous
seven-course dinner was served. It , ..... „ ariair

not what- they do.” Ah, who else
would have had the will power, the
kindness to say that while dying
pended by bleeding hands and feet
from the cross ?
Yet we all can in a smaller or less
degree be Christlike. The happy Yule-
tide season is here. Why not cast all
our petty displeasures, all our dis
sensions to the four winds and let
them be carried away on the rushing
currents of forgetfulness—let the sun
shine of forgiveness shine in all its
glory. This is a time when everyone
should be free from all care, and hap-

Change enemies into friends, and
Die reward will be of inestimable pro
fit to you. Every unfriendly, angry
feeling creates a toxic element in both
the moral and physical system that is
as pernicious as actual poison. A free
mind is a happy mind, and one is never
happy until something worth while
has been achieved.
Forgiveness is one of the greatest
weapons of mankind, yet one that jc
sc seldom used. How much more ca-
be done with a person, or any crea
ture, with a few kind words, a pleas
ant smile, than with harsh command
and the swinging of the lash. t
No matter how stubborn one may
be, through tactfulness and kimlness
e can be made to do whatever de
sired. A dog, for instanee, how
quickly it responds to a gentle pat
his head; a horse, how happily .,
neighs when an apple is given it and
its neck is stroked. Yet how differ
ently they act when they are driven
with harsh tones and a whip.
So to make this Christmas a bright
merry, cheery and happy one, weed
out all enemies and convert foes into
friends -That will be the finest and
best Christmas, present you can give
yourself or present to them. They
will be thankful to you, and you will
live in the glorious realization of
knowing no one bears an unfriendly
feeling toward you.
Thus you can lift y0U r voice on
Christmas day in cheery exultation in
rejoicing tones, in triumphant notes
m excessive jubilation, rise on high
sending heavenwafd the joy-promot
ing ringing words-“P# cc on earth
good will toward men.’’
