A Christmas Rhyme.

He came into His own, but His own
they knew Him not.
Were the portents all misread? Were
the prophecies forgot?
For the Mother Maid no mother
opened her door in pity
No room for Davids Heir in the
homes of Davids City.
The Herald Star unnoted, the Angels
song unheeded,
The Lord of all with His creatures
in vain for shelter pleaded.
He came unto His own-but ah!
they looked for a King
With armies and waving banners and
thunders of triumphing,
To smite His peoples foes from the
face of the shuddering earth!
What! this the Promised, the Long
Desired, this Babe of humblest
birth?
No babe. was lowlier Graded since
ever the first drew breath
All, me! in scorn rejected, yelled Lord
of life and death.
Just Heaven! and we dare to chide
them! Are we wiser, keener-eyed,
Less, prone to measure the ways Of
God with the little line of our
pride?
Now, ass of old, Christ comes to His
own, and His own receive Him not,
Through the crowded city streets He
fares, seeking resting spot.
If the King but came in His beauty,
we had found His coming sweet,
And strewed our priced and precious
things in the pathway at His feet.
But to know Him in His lowliest-in
the orphan child forlorn,
The crippled beggar, the outcast,
whom the untried virtuous scorn-
All! this is test and touchstone-
thrice blessed ne VINO stands
He shall laugh in the latter day, with
the Kingdoms keys in his hand.
{;
We open hearts and come to Thee.
Oh, make us brave and wise,
And strengthen, on this Christmas
Eve, our dim short-sighted eyes,
That we may know Thee, Lord, what
e'er Thy sad or strange disguise.

THE FALSE CHRISTMAS
MateriaIism Would Rob Festival Of Its
Central. FIGURE.
prove fata


Who can doubt that the world
around us is secularizing every day ?
The leaders of modern thought will
insist that men must close their ewes
to eternity, that this life is a thing
apart, that religion is a mere historic
development, gradually "perfectin;'
itself into non-existence; that Chris
tianity is clog on progress and prog
ress is mans only adequate destiny;
that Christ is the shadow which the
bright sunlight Of modern science
must dissipate.
Wicked men are seeking to drive
Christ from every sphere of thought
and life. They have driven Him from
their PHILOSOPHERS, aye, from their
theologies; they have driven Him, OF
labor to drive him, from the halls of
legislature. from the courts, from the
army, from the schools, from the hos
pitfalls, from the homes, from, the lives
of the people-from the very churches.
"The foxes have holes and the birds
of the air their nests, but the Son OF
Man has not whereon to lay His
head"
A late phase of the denial of Christ
is the attempt to- drive Him from
Christmas. 1t would seem, indeed,
that sacrilegious hands would hold
aloof from the manager at Bethlehem.
If the ears Of these intruders hear not
the heavenly music of the angelic
host. at least their hearts should 80
out in tender sympathy to the infant
lying on the straw and the gentle
young mother bending over in &C.
static love. But human hearts have
grown cold to the Divine Infant, and
human eyes gaze only for this paltry
world.
1t is only the other day that iesily
paper proclaimed that Christmas was
still Christmas without Christ. The
latest way of saying this is to preach
that Christmas existed before Christ
that as festival it's origin was lost
In the mists of antiquity, that men
should celebrate it, prescribing from
its religious character. In other
words. our worthy contemporary i,:-
vites US all to become ,pagans again
and. to revel in the filth and mirth OF
paganism.
We may admit that there was some
pagan festival held az the same time
of the year as we now celebrate Christ
mas. We may admire the wisdom
and prudence of the Christian Church
in purifying and Transforming these
pagan festivals into Christian feasts,
selling the customs of the people to
build up Christianity in their souls.
We need not go into learned discuss
sion as to the manner In whieh-pa gam
inn was extirpated land Christ made
to live in the hearts Of the people and
