II the practical observance OF the feast
be measure u the extent Of the popr.
lar belief in the supernatural event It
commentaries, faith in the Incarnation
is universal in Ghristendom. As the
Birth at Bethlehem recedes as a historl
cal event. the celebration of Christmas
grows heartier and more general in
-tead OF lessening Its hold on the inter-
est of humanity.
Divisions of Professionalism which long
rejected the feast as the institution Of
che Church Of Rome, now join in max.
ing it the supreme holiday Of the year.
The Jews themselves give it heed by
adopting the custom peculiar to the day.
lhe unitarians open their churches and
sing Christmas carols. though they re-
jrct the Divinity of Christ. 1nfdel
socialists celebrate the feast as commem-
Grating the publication of the doctrine
OF the brotherhood Of mankind. The
name of Christ is in every mouth
Though religious faith may decline, the
observance of Christmas extends.
With all due reverence we say it, the
popularity OF Jesus Of Nazareth steadily
increases and becomes more prevalent.
AT the same.time that both here and in
Europe criticisms Of the system OF dog
matic theology built up on His teachings
grows more severe. the teachings them
selves are gaining in their hold on man
kind. The Church may be attacked, but
Jesus himself is more than ever an OBJ
ject Of admiration and affection, if not
actual alteration. There are scoffers at
priests and religious systems, but no
where and by no one is the Son Of Man
derided. AT the name OF Jesus, SAYS St.
Paul, every knee should bow. Never be-
fore was the Injunction more generally
obeyed than today, so far as concerns
the popular acknowledgment of the
sablimity Of His teachings.
The theological revolution now occur
ring does not effect this reverence un.
less 10 increase it. As yeneration for
the dogmatic authority of theology falls
away, there succeeds more eager cling
ing to the great principles laid down by
Christ as essential for the maintenance
OF lasting and universal religion.
Even If religious faith should die out al
t'gethcr, there would still remain affec.
tioua.e consideration for the personality
OF Christ and undiminisl.ed admiration
for the truths proclaimed by Him and
exemplilied in His life. The Christian
rule Of conduct continues to be tile high
est idea! Of human society. Men may
refuse to live up to it, but they un!,e in.
glorlfying its perfect beauty.
In that sense the faith 10 Christ is as
universaliu CnEstendom as the obser-
vance OF this day set apirt to commem-
crate His birth into the world.

Here is q case where the pain inflicted
on six-year-old boy was especially
cruel, and after undergoing the tortures
produced by the surgeons knife he rap
idly grew worse. Mr.. ]. N. Murdoch,
the father of the boy, residing at 279
Snodgrass street, Dallas, Texas, writes:
''When my son, Will, was six years
old, small sore appeared on his lip,
which did not yield to the usual treat
ment, but before long began to grow. It
gave him great deal of pain, and COLI
tinued to spread. He was treated by
several good doctors, who said he had
cancer, and advised that an operation
was necessary.
cater much reluctance, we consented,
b and they cut down to the jaw bone,
which they scraped. The operation was
a severe one, but thought it was the
only hope for my boy. Before great
while the cancer returned, and began to
grow rapidly. We gave him many rem
edies without relief, and finally upon the
advice Of friend, decided to try S.S.S.
(Swift's Specifc), and with the second
bottle he began to improve. After twenty
bottles had been taken, the cancer dis
appeared entirely and he was cured.
The cure was permanent one, for he is
now seventeen years old, and has never
had a sign of the dreadful disease to re-

FAVORABLE TO PRITCHARD

And Bets Are 100 To 30 He Will BE
Elected
Raleigh, n. c., Jan. 6.-Members of
the legislature, which meets today.
are arriving in great numbers. As
rapidly as the PopuliSts arrive they
are called on by prominent Republi-
cans in the interest of Senator Pritch-
ard. 1t is learned that some of the
POpulistS already here tell Pritchard's
friends they favor him. Odds of a
hundred to fifty are offered by Repub-
licans on Pritchard'S reelection.
The Republicans held a caucus last
night. They say they are very de-
sirous that the POpulistS shall hold a
joint caucus with them on all matters
The Populis state chairman reiterates
the statement that there will be no
Joint caucuSeS. He declared that he
is we'll pleased with the situation. but
declines to say more. The Democrats
say they expect Overtures from Sena-
tor Butler. The whole matter him
Ses on one thing: This being Senator
Buffers ability to keep the POpulists
in line. There is confeSsedly three
classes of POpulists-The Middle of
the Road POpulists, the Populists of
Republican proclivitiees and those
who lean towards the Democrats.
Democrats say they believe Butler
can control a majority of their eau
Gus. They positively deny that the
Republican procilivties and those
islature as claimed. Ex-COngress-
man Ewart said: you can say for
me that Senator Butler cannot now

crosses named Ella Lomac, Celina
Picked, Mary Mead and Maria Reed
were responsible for this unusual
state of affairs.
The women had been celebrating a
bit too much. They had partaken of
considerable bad whisky at a corner
grocery and it was not surprising that
they appeared for services very much
under the influence of the weather.
They were noisy during the time they
We're in church and when the services
were nearing an end they jumped into
one of the aisles and let out yells that
would do credit to a Comanche In
dian. The minister pounded on the
pulpit with his gayel, but he was not
heard. The women danced the cou-
chez for the edification of those pres
ent. and the scene which ensued can
be better imagined than described.
After having driven almost every one
from the church the women them
selves were elected. John Watkins,
the deacon. appeared before Judge
Finnegan and made the proper affida-
Wits against the women.
