THE PRIHCE e PEACE
His Wonderful Influence Continue. and Widens Through tie

All the old troublous questions O. the origin and destination of the Cali lee Carpenter have passed. notes ? writer in Golfers. All the medaeva worriment in discriminating between human and divine has gone, all the puzzled inquiry into the miraculous No longer is mankind stirred over the non-essential. Theories of him fade away, dogmas of his nature lose theil charm. His gentleness has conquered His influence continues and widens Slowly brightening, the gleam that touched him spreads through tho world. His spirit moves on the face of civiliz~tion, and makes it kindliel every generation. The touch of his hand iss -oqf the sricf-strie}te4f.--N Nurse. physician, and nun are the messen gers of his teaching. The vestal fires burned out. but never the fires of his spirit. which answer each other iron mountain-top to mountain-top across the continents. And deep in the heart of the people they make family life sweeter and ease the bitterness ot failure and ignorance and all life's in completeness. That wonder-workine personality was never so potent as to day-so insistent and tenderly sure Under a thousand forms, creeds and names, men serve him. And however far we go in the conquest of nature identifying the north pole, climbing the sky, prying open electrical forces mapping out the subliminal. diminish ing sin, disease, war, poverty, ignO rance-always in the advance will be that gracious figure of the Sinless One. who showed Love as the rule of life.

And, as the hollow nast of Mintry wind rushcs through th4 hail, clasps the distant door, whistles about the easement, and rumbles down the chimney, what can be more grateful than that feeling of sober and sheltered security with which we look around upon the com. fortable chamber and the scene of do- mestic hilarity?

Some Things He would Like to Give
 if He Could.

Do you know the Christmas rres- ent I'd like to make if cculd?" said MT. Staybolt. "Td like to give cheer fitness to the downhearted, courage to the timid, and strength ta the weak; the power of self-denial f tyHRose who yield too easy, and desire to work to the lazy.
 T have often thought what a pity 1t is that you cant buy all these things, these helpful qualities already put up and at such price as to put them within the reach of all; canned cheerfulness, bottled hopefulness, courage in tablets, and strength, say; in the form of a powder, and so on; or you might, I suppose, put 'em all up canned, for that matter.
 But in the absence of such market preparations and our consequent in- ability to buy such things and send them as gifts to these whom they might most benefit perhaps you will permit mo to offer to each a word Of suggestion.
 "To the dispirited take cheerful view To the downhearted. dcn't dwell on the doleful side. To the timid, don't be afraid To the weak, or those who fancy themselves so, try your strength. You'll be surprised to find how much you've got.
 To those who yield too easily, deny yourself once, and again, and feel the joy and strength that will come back to you To the lazy get a job with ' shovel. in gang of laboreIs, under E driving boss; and if you are not glad to get back to your present job to do the best you know how at it. miss my guess.
 'T can't send you these things in cans or bottles; but if anyone of yotf will take my advice and stick to it, you'll think that Mir Staybolt was a very kind Santa Claus"
