How much does the baby weighf
All in all? oh, who can say7
Not his dainty flesh and bone,
Not his sweet, pink clay alone,
Not his limbs so soft and fair;
These are trifies light as air,
These are but things apart,
When We weigh him in the heart.
Who can weigh the light that lies
In the heaven OF his eyes?
Who can weigh his sunny smiles.
Or his sweetly winsome wiles7
Who can estimate the worth
OF an angels kiss at birth
Dimples playing hide and seek
In his round and rosy cheek7
Who can know the hopes and fears
OF the mothers smiles and tears?
Who can weigh the prayers expressed
For the loved one at her breast7
Who can tell the fathers Joy
Wrapped within that baby boy7
How much does the baby weigh,
All in all? All, who can sayi

he is so far freed from the tyranny OF what
he wants to do as to settle down to the
accomplishment of what he can do More
over, whilea man who has effectually got
rid of his ideals is of little account, there is
a property in man that is akin to ideals,
and yet not identical with them, which can
be spared without detriment to his higher
nature, and with very considerable advant-
age to his practical side. Itwould seem that a
certain decay of ones interest in ones self
as an individual is an indispensable con-
dition precedent to the full development of
salutary interest in ones self as fellow
creature man must be interested in
himself if he is to amount to anything, but
it is possible for the individual interest to
dwindle while the human interests develop
and in the very greatest men that process
is usually found to have taken place.
The application Of which is, firstly, that
we are not to allow our ideal of what
Christmas ought to be, and of how we
ought to spend it, and getting as much out
OF it as we can. And secondly, that Christ
mas is the time of all the year most fit for
our interest in ourselves as individuals to
be supplanted by an interest in ourselves as
individuals to be supplanted by an interest
in ourselves as fellow creatures.
Wherefore, because our ideal of Christ
mas feasting is terrapin and canvas back
duck, let us not disdain turkey, which is
Just as filling, and better fare no doubt
than we deserve. Because our ideal of
Christmas giving is pointlace and diamonds
let us not scOrn the modest remembrances
that our pocket may be able to endure.
And if as individuals, with exalted ideals
we may have become careless of Christmas
pleasures and opportunities and obligations
let us change our point of view, and regard
ourselves merely as one of divers fellow
creatures whose Christmas happiness it is
an axiom that to make things pleasant for
ones fellow creatures is the way to have
fun. If we lump ourselves in as fellow
creature with as many other fellow creatures
as we can reach, by making Christmas
joyous for the whole lot, we are bound to
cheer ourselves among the rest. And so
by getting rid of part of our ideals we may
continue to make the rest so productive as
to make us suspect before we get through
that it was not true ideal at all that we
parted from, but only one phase OF our
selfshness.

A CHILDREN'S CHRISTMAS EN-
TERTAINMENT.

In the room into which they are at first
ushered there is no sign of the tree, but
soon after all have gathered some one starts
Il wcll-known carol, and, finding their
voices, the little people forget to be shy
or embarI assed, and are ready to fall into
line and march into the room where the
tree is displayed.
Here all is rather dark, which adds to
the mystery made by the closed folding
doors or the drawn curtains which screen
the tree from view. There is pause of a
few minutes as the children scramble into
the low seats, and then. at given signal,
the tree is revealed, and no wonder an ap-
preciative murmur of approval breaks from
the small threats as it stands before them
in all its glory and sparkling light.
Presently veritable Santa Claus appears
clad in furs, with pack and beard, just as
jolly and rosy az the dear little old man
was ever supposed to be, who greets his
admirers with a CHEEKY speech OF welcome
and then prepares to unload his pack
bringing out something for every one, ant
adding to the pretty package which he put.
into each little outstretched hand baske
or cornucopia from the tree, filled will
simple candy, and bunch of holly tiet
with bright ribbon bow All this take
time, for eacl, gift has to be opened ant
admired. But when all are finally dis
tIibuted, and the lights are turned up il
the room and the candles on the tree eX
tinguished, it is time for games or dancing
or perhaps Punch and Judy show, or
best of all, prestidigitator may presen
himself, dressed in a jolly clown $ costume
and for another hour keep the little com
pany enthralled with his wonderful skill
and the funny gifts and absurd littl,
trinkets, which are Dissolved in the mos
extraordinary places or appear by wilc
magic, and, strange to say, in such way
and by such means that no one is forgotten
or overlooked.
After this part of the entertainment i.
over it is time for the music to play another
march, and the little people to choose
partners and walk together into the supper
room, where the table, well laden witt
fare, most attractive to view, but simple il
kind and variety, is shown. There may
be one long table with seats all around it
Or the seats may be placed against thu
wall, or there may be several small tables
where each little party can be served ant
watched over separately.
