Not the Gift but the Thought.

n UMANITY is not difficult to
fel please. 1t is the trifes with
% the big motive behind them
that make the sweetest pres
ents. The crusty old bachelor shifts
contemptuously at the gorgeous buhl
table presented to him by the head Of
the firm, and softens into a smile as
he sees the bunch of Christmas roses
offered by a niece who honestly tries
TO make the grumpy old fellows
Christmas a happy one. Father says
in public, What, Christmas again?
This nonsense Of present-giYing will
ruin mel" but is privately certain that
the hugs and kisses, the muffiers and
bric-a-brac, bestowed upon him by the
family, and especially the neat pen
wiper in crimson, yellow and green
wool, made with infinite pains by the
youngest hopeful, fill up the vacuum
in his banking account satisfactorily.
The thought behind the gift enhances
its value, and no one, from king to
peasant, can resist the dear delight OF
affections offerings. II is commonly
the rich who are best pleased by ordi-
nary presents, and the great by child
ish ones. The poor have the won
drous gift of finding pleasure in what
more fortunate folk despise. A woman

The time is the time of gifts and

died for, others. Now, as of old, it is
not always those who have His name
most frequently upon their lips who
best obey His commands. The deeds,
and not the speech, declare the heart,
and, since every good instinct and de-
sire is from Him, L is a joy to remem-
