was scarcely more thnn q child herself,
being bnt about 10 years Of age; but
tradition attaches to her most excellent
judgment, and Q maternal Instinct in
calculably strong. Besides did she not
know her boy had been forstold by the
angel? Thou shalt call Hh name
Jesus, because He Ahall save His people
from their sins" She might not love
Him the more because Of His illustrious
destiny, but her heart could not be
but lifted up in commendable pride al
this reflection, as she gazed for the first
time into His dear. sweet face and His
tiny blue eyes looked wonderingly into
hers. Then the news quickly went
abroad, angels from Heaven bearing
about the tidings of the birth Of their
King. They told the shepherds upon the
plains Of Salem and the wise men Of
tho east and all Of them entered the lit
tie caravansary Of the village of Bethle-
hem, and saw the babe and it's mother
lying down in the same room where
were the camels and horses and oxen
OF strangers, who had come up to
Jerusalem to be taxed. Angels sang
the praises Of the newly born and new
star appeared in the sky. The wise men
brought gifts and laid them at the feet
OF the mother.
Tha was the frst Christmas and
Mary was the first person in all the
world to receive Christmas gift, and
hers was infinitely greater In vSlue
than all combined, that have been since
received by all the people who have
lived or died. Her gift. the Christ
child; she honored above all the wom-
en- who have lived or died. in being made
tho mother Of Him who should "be
called Jesus, because He shall save His
people from their sins"
The angel song TO the shepherds had
tor Hs burden peace TO men Of good
will" Ono could scarcely think Of q
Christmas that is other than gladsome
aud joyous. The clouds may be thick
overhead, while In north countries the
ssrth may have sheet OF snow. and N
the southlaads there may be Thunder
and rain. But there are warmth, sun
light and gladneas in the heart-the
best place In all the world for them. i.
the heart birds sing carol songs OF 10Y;
In ths heart flowers bloom, leaves are
out upon the trees and vslvety erass
covers the hills.
O, the Christmas tide -Christ's birth
day. day Of all days. In the calendar.
How hearts glow on this day and warm
each to the other. How strifes and Bit
ternessea end. and all cares. from with
ont and from within. take on quick
wings apd Hy far away. How self 10
swallowed In love for these about one,
and oil become. like the Nagi who
visited Jesus. bearers OF gifts-gtud-
heart gifts that make radiant the
cheeks Of donors as we'll as recipients.
O, the Christ day. Would that the
cheer OF the family board, the joyous
home-bringihg and the gladnesa Of
the hea!t might be in every day Of the
year. That, indeed. would be bring
ing down Of the New Jerusalem from
Heaven to earth: for then there would
he no more sorrow or tears, and wicked
ness and sin would end in the land.
