 Among American women at holiday time the tired Christmas face is the comrnonest of all. The gift bringing custom has grown to such enormous and unreasonable proportions that 10 satisfy the insatiate monster wears women folk to the bone. Everybody expects something, therefore woman, inc martyr half of the race. thinks she must kill herself to gratify expectation. She scurries around bargain hunting; she sits up nights to sew things; she goes without eating; she collapses finally undes the strain of Christmas preparation. The Christmas face or three out of four American women fs worn and weary and expressive oS nerve rack.
 Did you ever walk past Christmas shop windows blazing with light and filled with beautiful toys and sweets and see standing outside crowd or noorly dressed. underfed children look ing with longing yet utterly hopeless eyes at the beauties in the shops? Theirs are the saddest Christmas faces of all. The pathos of them haunts one who wakes in the night and thinks oS them.
 Many men and most women wear masks. I suppose they have to. An Arab song says:
 Nobody but God and I Knows what is in my heart.
 This is put awkwardly. but 1t Is true. Christmas Is the time when for the sake of others we should wear the mask of happiness and joy. no matter how little glad we are at heart.

The Christmas face of the money king is the face of the man in the iron mask. No more nobility or light is in his countenance than if it were made of iron.

If only growl. people could wear their sweet. merry, bright expression. Only one little woman in the picture seems thoughtful. as though she wer, look ing down through long lane of years and wonderings what she would meet. But even this little woman's face is not sad, only thoughtful.
 It is beautiful picture, picture to be painted large and hung upon the wall where ones eyes may rest on it the last thing at night and the first thing in the morning. Thus, perhaps, the weary, disappointed grownup might in time absorb something of the beauty and joy that speak from the new, young faces.

 On that universal day of rejoicing all the Christian world ought to put on its Christmas face-if it has any.
 Strange it is. though. how few peo- pie on the great festal day wear joy ous, illuminated face. At Christmas the ordinary expression of coun- tenance is generally accentuated and made more prominent Whose are the really glad and happy faces? First of all, those of the children. bless them! If you would see the Christmas face all the world should wear look at the lovely children in the picture. Their eyes are full of light, their lips ex- press joy and delight pleased, happy surprise speaks from their smooth. pretty foreheads and dimpled cheeks. They have wakened early, jumped out of their little white beds and run into the older sisters room to compare notes and gifts.
