Good will toward men" is the NIL per
vading sentiment Of Christmastidle. It Is
the time to bury unkind thoughts aud petit
jealousics. II Is the season for loving deeds
and Kind remembrances, day Of general
amnesty, time to forgive and forget, and
with n mantle Of Christlike charity tn
cover the ioiblcs and frailties Of our fel-
lows
The sentiment Of common brotherhood
should presiominate. 1t Is sentiment that
does not lessen the tender ties Of kinship,
but broadens and ennOblcs its possessor.
The man who confines his Christmas chart
tics to his own family circle misses the
p'ircst and hottest pleasures Of the day.
The custom Of giving Christmas presents
is said to have originated in the oriental
practice Of bearing gifts ON all pilgrimages
and visits. Anus the wise men Of the east
laid gifts mt the feet Of the infant Christ.
With US the custom has. or should have, a
higher and nobler significance.
The act Of charity or the testimonial Of
friendship and esteem should he entirely
spontaneous To bestow gifts with the hope
OF return or rward, OF to propitiate friend
ship or interest, Is to masquerade selfishnes,
ia the guise Of generosity.
The oriental idea Of charity was recipro-
cal, to cxchange benefits for favors expected.
Christ fnaugurnted n nobler system, the
principle Of bro;hcrly love Peace ON
earth, good will toward men,"
