THE GIVING OF CHRISTMAS
GIFTS.

Christmas is the dream OF youth and
the retrospeotion Of old age. 1t is the
first awakening of hope in the young
heart, and likewise the planting of des-
pair in the heart of the unfortunate,
those who are not remembered by gifts
OF friendship, who have no friends left
on earth to remember them.
One of the saddest conditions in this
life is the home Of poverty on Christmas
morning There is no fire in the stove,
there is no light inthe lamp; everything
is dark and the depression OF despair
is apparent on every hand II it is the
widow with dependent children, the
wan face of the mother looks wistiully
toward the door that the old time Santa
Claus used to enter, and the starved
little ones huddle in a corner and won
der where God is. This is the time for
the comfortably fixed to look around
and inquire where such a family exists
and make it happy by thoughtful con
sideration Of its small needs Some adj
mnlstrative to the creature comforts of
the sofely stricken ones on that Day of
Gifts is worth more than the tender of
costly presents to those friends who do
not appreciate them, and who receive
them as a matter OF course.
The season above all things inspires
the spirit ofgiying happiness to children.
1t is the only time in their lives that
they rest uustiully ON their elders il is
the only period where some small re.
membrance will count for the future
years, ii is the only time when happi-
ness IS conferred with So small an e(-
fort and SO small an outlay.
Christmas is the celebration OF the
birth of Him who once said: "Sufter
the little children to come unto me, for
OF such is the kingdom of heaven and
for them is the festival of special inter
est. Deny the child the expectancy
and the realization of Christmas and
you have cast shadow over Young
life that should know only sunshine.
As 1t has been said that it is smore
blessed TO give than receive" let every
one of us see to ii, that what we give
counts something for those who never
have received

A wit has observed that some men
are born great, some achieve greatness,
and others edit country newspapers"
but he might have added that the coun-
try editors are the backbone of,he com
munity. There are numerous small
towns that would not be on the map at
all save for the persistent booming they
have received in the columns of the
town newspaper, the editor too often
being the only man in the place who has
failed to share in the towns prosperity
for the simple reason that he has been
too busy helping others to look out foi
himself

Nothing is SO bad for man-body,
mind, soul-as dependency. II clouds
the intellect, dampens the ardor of
life, saps the will power. 1t will put
colored glasses on the eyes; every
thing will seem distorted; molehills
will be masnihed into mountains. Man
can yield himself to moods of depres-
sion, till the vitality, the JOY and beauty
OF life are gone, and be unfit for its
duties. He can live in shadow and
darkness until he becomes unable to
see the rainbow in the clouds and for
gets that the sun still shines above

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasins Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and day. When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
OF impure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part Of this impure matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel, disor-
ders of the eyesight and hearing, dizzi
ness, irregular heart, debility, drowsi-
ness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc.
But it you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your kidneys.
Mrs X. NJ, Silverthorn, living at so Delevan
St, Lambertyille, N. J., says: Both myself

A PRUDENT COURSE
CRISIS BETWEEN FRANCE AND GERMANY SEEMINGLY DIS-
 FILLED
It ts Now Apparent That Germany is Ready to Abandon Her Re- cent Demand for De-
 serfers' Release.

Paris, Nov. 6.-The crisis between France and Germany which arose over the arrest of German deserters from the foreign legion of the French Army by the French authorities of Casa Blanca has seemingly been aispelied overnight
 It Is now apparent that Germany is ready to abandon her recent demand for the release of these men and that she excuses the action of the French soldiers who are alleged to have att tackled an oficial of the German con- suiate at Casa Blanca. Both Herr von Schoen, the German Foreign Secretary. and Prince von Radolin. the German Ambassador in Paris. have changed the tone of their utterances. and today they are manifesting a conciliatory as- pect and readiness to accept the pro- posal made by France, whereby with mutual expressions of regret. the en- tire incident may be referred to arbt- tration.
 The German Foreign once expects to receive. in the course of the day, a final decision from Emperor William, who is at present in Austrial Now that the question of excuses whfch ifn- ply censure upon the French soldiers is out of the way, the French Foreign Ofice is confident that the remaining dfverEencies can be easily adjusted. As a further evidence of her loyal atti- tude, France has voluntarily trans mitted to Germany the report on the ocurrence made by the police of Casa Blanca.
 It is understood here that both Austria Hungary and Italy advised Berlin to follow course of prudence.
