is RUSSIA SINCERE?
Japan Hears of Encouraging Messag-
es to Linevitch From the Gar

Toxic, July 19.--1t is believed that
Emperor Nicholas recently sent an en-
couraging message to General Line
witch promising him provisions and
other necessaries for attaining an al
innate victory. 1t is also reportM
that the Russian Emperor recently
ordered the mobilization of four army
corps. This fact taken in connection
with the reported limitation of M.
Wits power as chief peace pleni-
potentiary is deemed to be a sign
that Russia is not sincere in her ex-
pressed desires for the conclusion of
peace.
Heavy seas are still raging off the
coast of the Island of Sakhalin, and
further reports of the Japanese oper-
ations there are not expected in the
near future.

The Spirit Of Christmas

Written for The Citizen

Would you like to see a Spirit? On,

Spirit. Then watch the faces thai
men and women are wearing at this
season! They may not know that
these faces of theirs are the least bit

And ii is the Spirit of Christmas that
brings about the change.
The Spirit of Christmas is a very
beautiful Angel that makes its APP
pearance once a year. 1t gets more
or less into the hearts of every man
and woman-and of course into the
hearts of all children, 1t takes :ull
possession of some of these hearts,
and then good results follow-you
will guess what these are-certain
poor families are observation-disclosures
tain wee stockings hanging aroung
empty f%ireplaces are filled.
Notice that gay young fellow, with
his boot pulled up as high as pos
sible-a type of the west, God bless
him-the Spirit of Christmas is after
him! He stops to look into the win
dows of a store, and sees toys and all
sorts of holiday attractions, and a
wistful look steals over his handsome
somewhat reckless face, He wonders
vaguely what has become of Mother,

That is how the Spirit of Christmas
