Piled that in his opinion the best thing to

mn ,s,h ana hone the world will disagree,
But ali mankin nd Is concern Is charity.
The great anniversary OF Chrislcndom Is
again upon us-the anniversary that 10
the young means merrymaking, to the old
"reminiscences and reflection, aud which
should bring happiness and satisfaction 10
all And This last il will do il WE but take
70 heart the great aud universal lesson oil
the day and allow our better natures 10
rule Us. Charity is a welI'spring In which
there is Christmas happiness for all.
There are many legends OF men
and saints upon whose hearts some word
or motto has been craven. Charity l.
craven on the hearts OF nearly all mankind,
and finds expression in thought. word, or
deed when he right influences touch 1t.
Certainly this is true IL 1t be so that none
can evolve a sentiment he does not ieei.
Even the "wisest. brightest, meanest OF
mankind" has said " The desire OF power
III excess caused the angels TO fall; the de-
sire OF knowledge In excess caused man TO
fall: but in charity there Is no excess
neither can angel or man come in dan
Ger OF IT," The influences OF the
CbIistmas.tide are in all their phases those
that should stimulate charity. Happiness is
in a measure the recollection OF the good
we have done. TO those who have passed
The age Of merrymaking, and to whom the
sweetest Christmas music is an echo from
The long ago. We would say
"Iet echo. too, perform her part
prolouging every note with art;
And In q low, expiring strain,
Play all the concert Ger again
Let
"sweetest echo. sweetest nymph that lives
UNSEEN
do this. not only that thew may enjoy the
day. but be moved to give to Others OF the
pleasures they have tasted. Let the magic
wand Of memory dissolve the spell that
wears of LIES hard battle too often throw
around Iure charity. To the young, whose
strongest tics are in the present. it may be
said that time embalms every good deed.
The young who SOW the seeds OF kindness
now and cultivate charity will gather the
choicest flowers Of gladness in old age. To
both young and old we say the poor, the
sick. the faint.hearted, and the discouraged
are always with US. It's by helping, cheer
ing, ministerlng 10 these that we most reye-
renee charity. The Christmas season Is tie
season for crowniDg charity queen. The only
diadem that BELTS her is wrought Of gene
rous deed and gentle words-the. gems Of
the heart. Her coronation hymn is the
Thanksgiving Of The needy, the weary. and
the distressed. Let Us see TO 1t As best We
can that the strains Of that hymn mingle
with the song Of our present merry-making
and the echoed music Of the past.
Thus We can. profit ourselves and
have others profit by the lesson of the day.
Thus we can make the anniversary an en-
nobliDg. a consecrated, purifying one. in
our own homes and in the homes OF many
about Us. Bid charity reign, that her
sway may bring Us to higher and holier re-
Solves. Bid her reign 20 the end that there
nav not be mere formality in the greeting,
"a happy Christmas and prosperous
New-Year to all"
