Christmas Again

Again the earth is wreathed in holly
and mistletoe, the yule logs are burn
ing, the Christmas bells are ringing,
the Christmas carols sounding and the
stingy old world shakes off the shackles
Of avarice and selfishness and wakens
up to the true JOY of giving. Again
beneath the palms the stockings are
filed and the merry dance goes on and
the glad carols sound till the morning
dawns.
Again from the windows of the snow
clad cottages the Christmas light,
placed by reverent hands, shines far
out to guide the Christ.child DER the
wintry plains with his burden of gifts.
So the light that has blessed the world
shone over Bethlehem one Christmas
morning two thousand years ago.
Again from their Christmas feast the
German world goes out to look up at
the stsrs and harken to the sacred
chimes from all the high towers of
their cities. So, the shepherds of
Judea hardened to the angel chorus
singing "Peace on earth, good will to
men,"
Again the Danish populace puts out
at each door q sheaf of wheat and o
greal basket full of crumbs to feed the
sparrows. So the Great All-Father
remembers the weak and helpless of
the earth. Again our homes are the
strongholds of mystery. Again the
fragrance of cut pine is in the bracing
air, again the odor of turkey greets
you at every Kitchen door, again Lizzie
locks herself In the back parlor and
Mary burns late the midnight oil.
Again discreet eyes are closed while
unshapely bundles are conveyed up
stairs. Again the universal thought
is-not ourselves--but others, and we
get faint conception of how "God so
loved the world"
Let the cynic say what he may of the
ostentation Of modern Christmas Civ
ing, we believe that there is 40 other
day of the year that the diviner chords
OF humanity's heart vibrate as truly to
the melody of love and happiness as at
the Christmas time. You may buffet
with the world for fifth years, you may
find your ideas false, your trust be-
trayed, your idols made Of clay; but
when You see the Christmas decora-
tons, smell the Christmas odors, hear
the Christmas carols and meet the
eager eyes of the children, your youth
full enthusiasm returns, you remem-
Der your mother, your childish faith,
your baby stockings-the old ties that
are dear, though almost forgotten, aud
you involuntarily put your hand in
your pocket and join the glad process
sion that greets the Christmas tide.
May the real Christmas spirit reach
and bless every one of our readers

Campajep Opened,

The republicans of Linn county
opened their campaign with a big
meeting in Laclede last Thursday
evening. The big opera house was
crowded beyond standing room and
the best of order prevailed while Hon.
D. P. Dyer, of St. Louis, made the
best speech ever listened to in La
clede. He held the closest attention
Of the large audience for over two
hours and was repeatedly cheered as
he dealt out great chunks of political
wisdom and truth. Welsh's drum
corps furnished music and added to
the success of the meeting.
