FRIENDSHIPS OFFERING

In Acknowledgement of the Christmas
Greetings of Mrs. E. A. Weston,
Leicester England.
Christmas comes on me again
And with it comes your greetings,
Reminding me of happy days,
And many pleasant meetings.
My soul in spirit scars to thee,
In fervent friendship ever,
Oh may nat ght ever come between
That friendship good to sever.
Oceans divide us, yet our hearts
Are green as first we met,
We live in friendship, love and hope,
And never can forget
The days that passed in friendship dear,
So trusted tried and true,
And time but strengthens now the love
That wakes my heart to you.

CHRISTMAS GREETING.

To-day marks another anniversary
of the birth of our Saviour. Trough
out Christendom this Christmas day
will be observed with thanks, Joy
and gladness. As far as possible,
children and families gather around
the hearth-stone of the old home and
eat at the parental table. In many
homes vacant chairs will be found
here an absent child, there n hard
working, energetic father, here a
fond, patient mother-have gone, to
the realms eternal, their hope and
strength resting upon Him whose
birth we thus to-day celebrate, honor
and glorify. Thus the sad tears are
scattered, thus the hopes are bright
ened and confidence renewed and we
turn to each other with congratula-
tions, and, in imitation of the great
God who care his only begotten Son,
that we might be saved, we also give
gifts. Fathers, mothers, brothers,
sisters, friends and the sweet little
children, one to another, on the day
that God gave life, destined for
the Cross unto our salvation, give
gifts. How hideous becomes our
intense human seli3hness, one with
another, in comparison with Gods
action and Christ's suffering? Read
er,if during the gear we have wrong
ed you, we to-day pray pardon, as
we should all do Of one another and
TO all Of you, We extend the greet
ing OF "a Merry Christmas and
many returns thereof, and, in the
words Of one of the greatest of the
Apostles, Thanks unto God for has
unspeakable gift.

REMEMBER THE PooR.-The poor
we have always with YOU" is indeed a
truism in every community. These
words were spoken by our Saviour, and
there is no more opportune time during
the year to call attention to the fact
than the festive Xmas season.
While We are all enjoying our comfort
able homes and partakingof the delicac-
les prepared by every good housewife
around our family firesides, how few
give thought to the unfortunat of our
fellow citizens who are poor. What
a deprivation it is to be without the
necessaries of life at any time but more
particularly SO during the holiday sea-
son Preparation may be noticed on every
hand for the enjoyment of the young
and old. Let every one in his neighbor-
hood make glad the hearts of the poor
by going around among them and dis
pensing good cheer to those who are
worthy objects of charity.
'sreed well the hungry, cloth the poor
And such as stand in need
This is the way to celebrate
Christmas true indeed"

husband and wife, have met with a
disasterous defeat. The jury refus-

side, therefore, thy found the charges
made by the wife were false and those
made by the husband were also false.
What sorry pair they are and what
a delightful home they will have, now
that divorce is denied and a Ger.
tificate of reputation, though a
mockery, has been given them by the
jury.
