that the poorest of them all is the one, who
cannot or thinks he cannot give.
It seems perfectly natural that the
children should receive the greatest share
of attention today. 1t is in large sense
a children's day. Their natures are bet
ter attuned to its harmonies Phey absorb
and retain more of its influences. And
doubtless for these reasons the older ones
are sometimes neglected. The latter are
led to feel, it may be, that they have
outgrown the day. The crust OF worldil-
ness about their inner selves hardens. 1t
would have required but trifle, little
reminder, to have broken through and
let the glad light in upon them. Christ
mas is for childhood and old age, for youth
and for middle age, for us all and the
journal wishes each and everyone
merry Christmas.

The JOY of Christmastide.

This is the joy of Christmastide: II
brings afresh to our remembrance the
glorious truths that God is love; that he
Is our Father and we are his children, and
that, being his children, we are his heirs,
heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ
to an inheritance more glorious than NOR
tai eye hath seen or heart conceived.
And this idea that God is our Father is
impaired to us by God himself. We our
selves could never have found it out by any
study or searching of our own. 1t had to
be revealed to US And this is the ami
yersary season of it's revelation, the recog
nized anniversary of that time when II
the manger at Bethlehem Christ entered
into the experiences Of human life that nj
might reveal to man the spirit which ami
mates the heart of God, the spirit of pa
ternal love and fellowship.
In coming to God now, my friends, WI
come no more with Moses by the way o.
the wilderness and of that mount which
burned with fire, but we come by the wa.
OF the Bethlehem manger to the peaceful
and inspiring heights Of Zion.
Happy Christmas! Day of better GOV
cnant than Moses knew! Day of glad It'd
ings which shall be to all people! Day O
the revelation of God in Christ as the Fa
thcr of all and the Saviour of all! Ma!
it's yearly coming find the world more ant
more in harmony with God until in al
the earth men shall know and worship
and rejoice in him as their nearest, dearest

exaggeration of the first story Of the
massacre. However, it is conceded that
the barbarities following the capture OF
Port Arthur were horrible in the extreme.
1t is but Just to recognize, nevertheless,
that horrible as they were they were in
cited by such fendish cruelties as would
put to blush an Apache. Bone crushing
and roasting over a slow fire, disem-
bowelling prisoners alive, these were the
deeds committed by the Chinese, deeds
that were held up before the eyes OF the
japanese on entering the captured
stronghold seeing ON every side OF them
the bodies of the victims strewn along the
way. 1t is believed, moreover, that coolies
accompanying the army committed a
large part of the fiendish retribution,
that they got at liquor and crazed by this
and the scene of their tortured countymen
they broke from all restraint and We're
followed by the japanese soldiery. There
is no doubt that the barbaric instincts
of the japanese broke through the veneer
of their hurried civilization. But it would
have been remarkable had they not, under
circumstances that would have aroused
the worst passions and lust for revenge IN
an army of christianized soldiery Up to
that time, often under the greatest proyoca-
ton it stands to the credit of the japanese
that they bore themselves with fortitude
and forbearance.

The expenditures of the federal govern
ment since the German bill was passed
have exceeded the revenues at the rate of
not less than $50, 1000, 600 year. Per-
haps our free trade contemporaries that
keep up the senile chatter about the
downfall of Mckinleyism will stay the
flow of their foolishness long enough to
search their files for the report of speech
delivered in fremont Temple at Home
Market Club mass meeting some three
years ago. in which he said that pro-
tectiye tariff and a revenue tariff agreed
for time in their practical effects so far
as providing revenue was alone concerned,
Daily Kennebec journal., 1894-12-25

The Democrats are making as big a
botch of their proposed currency legisla-
tion as they did of their tariff legislation.
There were 500 mistakes in the latter
measure and If Messrs Cleveland, Car
Isle, Springer, ct ais. have their way
with the currency measure there is likely
to be 500 mistakes in that as well. But
mistakes in currency legislation are of
much more serious import than those OF
tariff legislation. Tho value of currency
rests in the confidence of the people. With
out such confidence 1t is failure. Tc
tamper with that confidence is fatal
1t will not brook mistakes. 1t shrinks
from hasty legislation. And as thc'pub
lie has no confidence in either the Demo
cratic administration or the Democratic
Congress it will be exceedingly suspicious
of the most carefully prepared currency
measure coming from such sources.
Nothing that this Congress may do,
more especially anything SO radical as is
now proposed, will meet with public favor.
On the contrary it will excite public
distrust and bring on all the attendant
evils. We hope the report that the bill
is already waif will prove true.

1t is not just to say that the atrocities
committed at Port Arthur by the Japan

were to be expected of barbarians, and that
they prove Japan to be simply barbarian.
The atrocities committed by the British
at the time Of the Sepoy rebellion are not
forgotten. But japanese cruelties are proof
that the civilizing, christianizing in

while generation after generation has used it
with entire satisfaction and transmitted the
knowledge of its worth to their children as a
valuable inheritance. 1t has been stamped
with the approval of many thousands of
patients well as physicians everywhere.
Its special province is to cure inflammation
both Internal and External. Inhaie for ner-
