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. B K B 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 lovely scene with its red and green decorations, and red shaded lights f/T ' on S tables wore arranged so that all the guests were seatel at one table were the older members of the family at the next the young married ones were seated at the next the un married members of the family enjoy ed their dinner and at the fourth table were the children of the family, „un^ bering about 12 or 15 happy little cousins. 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.

HARTLEY MANNERS Laurette Taylor*. Perpetual New York Success. CLEAN PIQUANT A COMEDY 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- of"life stl ° U,<i be tbe su preme quality 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.’’ ' 8 8 S ELABORATE AND BEAUTIFUL CHRISTMAS BANQUET.
