CHRIST M IS

Rev. C. w. McCreery, at the Meth

greeting the following words from
Luke $40: Glad tidings of great

He said:
There is a danger lest we approach
Tho Christmas season with long faces
That we make it burden. Uncon-
sciously the custom OF giving mas

said that the only time when he had
chance TO really make anything was
at holiday time. There IS no DOUBT
but that the custom OF Christmas
giving has grown TO tremendous pro-
portions II is all right that 1t is so
provided we can keep cheerful In the
midst OF it all II Is quite necessary
that we should have and keep tho
Christ mas spirit before, during and
alter Christmas. The Christmas spirit
Is cheerful desire 10 contribute to
the happiness Of others. The gifts OF
Christmas arc n token Of the desire
The gfl without the desire has no
meamug-and If the desire is not OK

mean that one needs TO give anything
OF money value.
Give Kind Words.
Give kind word-a happy smile
as far as YOU can.giye yourself to, aid
in making the worlds store oil happl
ness all the greater.
We must guard lest our giving shall
rot be with the Christmas spirit We
must avoid three dangers:
l. The danger that our giving
should be from custom or from the
sense of obligation. Gifts must be
With love. They must come from the
heart Perhaps the sense of duty in
giving might be a reason for giving,

spirit Of Christmas. That may be a
sour and disagreeable spirit. The
spirit OF Christmas is a glad spirit.
Do not give a Christmas gift unless
YOU have a great desire to do so II

more than We should. Christmas gifts

long after the day is passed. We
ought not to mortgage the future in

which one. may give which will not

Hazel asented.
1T is the last we SHALL" he
was going to say 1t was the last
they would eat together; but his
voice failed him, and he hobbled
into the cavern, and tried to
smother his emotion in work. He
lighted the fire, and blew It into a
flame with a palmetto leaf, and
then he sat down awhile, very sick
at heart; then he got up and did
the cooking, signing all the time;
and, just when he was beginning
to wonder why Helen was so long
lighting eight bundles of straw, she
came in, looking pale.
"Is it all right?" said he.

Hazel said:
Come, come, we can't eat; let
us go round the point and see the

gives you back to the world you
were born to embellish."
Helen said she would 60 directly.
And her 1anguid reply contrasted
strangely with his excitement. She
played with her supper, and wasted
time in very unusual way, until
he told her plump she was not re-
ally eating, and he could wait no
longer, he must go and see how
the beacon was burning.

they went down to the beach.
She took his crutch and gave 1t
to him. This little thing cut him
to the heart. 1t was the first time
she had accompanied him so far as
that without offering herself to be
his crutch. He sighed deeply as he
put the crutch under his arm; but
he was too proud to complain, only
he laid It all on the approaching
steamboat.
The subtle creature by his side
heard the sigh, and smiled sadly at
being misunderstanding what
man could understand her? They
hardly spoke till they reached the
point. The waves glittered in the
moonlight; there was no red light
on the water.

she.
Hazel stood aghast. What have

Helen's attitude of defiance
melted away; she began to cover,
and hid her blushing face in her
hands. Then she looked up implor-
ingly. Then she uttered a wild and
eloquent cry. and fled from him
like the wind.

TO A SPORTSMAN.
From distant San Francisco, this

Bearing words of greeting to king

The writer's from London, and a
sportsman to the core,
Devoted to your majesty, as others
were before.
The gladstone news has reached us,
the Derby has been run,
That Minoru, your sterling colt, the
famous race has won;
Most befitting is the name, an UNI
qualified success, !
May often you repeat it, and gain
honors more or less!
In years gone by when Prince of
Wales, you patronized the
sport,
Ennobled by your presence, and the
atmosphere of court;
Your ventures in the Derby were
more striking than today,
When the Riband Blue Persimmon
won, holding cracks at bay.
