THREE CaRI,TMAs CHIMES.

!.
Hearkeu' how the Christmas chime
Siugs on earth It's song sublime,
See the twain whose weary feet
Wander through the village street.
Doors are closed against the stranger,
See the Child, the meek aud lowly,
Christ the mighty, the all holy,
Sleeping Graded in a msnger."
Sing your Joy, o Christmas chime.
Let Us keep the Christmas time.
Be the loaf OF plenty doled
Be the poor mans heart conSoled.
Thus we keep the Christmas time.
IL
Hasrken, still the Christmas chime
Sings on earth It's song eUblimel
Wandering shepherds see the night
Flooded with celestial light
Wond ering hear the NIGEL message;
Come and let US kneel before him,
Let Mt find him and adore him.
Peace on earth this child doth pressage."
Sing your JOY. Christmas chime!
Let us keep the Christmas time.
Let al strife and hatred cease,
Kindness live, good will and peace.
Thus we keep the Christmas time.
III.
Hearkeu. still the Christmas chime
Sings on e&rth Its song sublime.
Eagerly the Msgi sped
BY the wondrous star beam led
Gold and myrrh, and incense offer.
He brings most-yes, be the highest
Oraweth unto God the Highest
Who heart Of love doth proffer."
Sing your Joy, Christmas chimel
Let US keep the Christmas time.
Love shall be the law TO bind
In one band all humankind.
Thus we keep the Christmas time.

A man arose in Fulton street prayer
meeting. and said: 81 wish publicly 10
acknowledge the goodness OF God' 1
was in business trouble. | had money
10 nav, and had no money TO pay H.
and was in utter dispair OF all human
help, and | laid this matter before the
Lord, and this morning L went uo"I
among some old business frlends hdu
not seen In many years, just 10 MAKE
call. and one said to me, why, L am so
glad to see you, walk in. We have some
money on our books due you gooo
while. but we didn't know where you
were, and therefore not having your ad-
dress we could not send il. We are very
Glad Won have come" And the man
standing in Fulton street prayer-meetlng
said: THE amount they paid me was SIX
times what | owed. You say IL only
happened so? You are an inhdel. uou
answered that mans prayer. On, You
want business grace. Commercial ethics,
business honors, laws OF trade, are all
very good in their place, but there are
times when you want something more
than this world will give you. You
want God. For the lack OF him some
that YOU have known have consented TO
forge, and to maltreat their TRENDS
and to curse their enemies, aud thelr
names have been bulleDtlned among
scoundrels, and they have been ground
to powder; while other men you have
known have gone through the very
same stress Of circumstances trlum-
phant. There are men here to-day who
fought the battle and gained the VIC
tory. People come out of that mans
store, and they say: "Well, If there
ever was n Christian trader, that IS
one" Integrity kept the books and
waited on the customers. Light from
the eternal world flashed through the
show windows.
LOVE TO GOD
and love to man presided in that store
house. Some day people going through
the street notice that the shutters of the
window are not down. The bar OF that
store door has not been removed. Peo-
pie say, what is the matter ?" You
go up little closer, and you see written
on the card Of that window: "Closed
on account Of the death Of one OF the
firm" That day all through the circles
of business there is talk about how q
good man has gone. Boards OF trade
pass resolutions of sympathy, and
churches of Christ pray, Help, Lord,
for the cody man ceaseth." He has
made his last bargain, he has suffered
his last loss, he has ached with the last
fatigue. His children will get the re-
suit of his industry, or, If through mis-
fortune there be no dollars left, they
will have an estate of prayer ana Chris
tian example which will be everlasting.
Heavenly rewards for earthly discipline.
There "the wicked cease from troubling
and the weary are at rest"
