the thought that It could be possible
that this metal should be so promis-

AND MISTLEToE
Nature Worship Reflected In Use Of
MistIetoe at Christmas
Time.

A great many years ago, before the
time of Christianity, the oak tree, and
especially the mistletoe, growing out
of the heart Of the oak, were rever-
enced for their supposed affinity with
the sun. The Druids worshiped the
sun as the one supreme god, and be-
lieved the oak to be in some way as
ISOLATED with the sun because they
made fire by rubbing oak sticks to-
gether, the oak being at once the most
common tree and the most suitable
for the purpose. Twice each year
these Celtic priests gave a religious
festival In honor of the sun, their
places of worship being in the oak
groves. In June, when the sun was
known to have ceased mounting high.
er in the heavens, the Druids gave
thanks, because a nearer approach of
the sun was thought to be possible,
and this, Of course, would result In the
burning up Of the earth. In Decem-
Der, at the time Of the shortest days,
the Druids prepared celebration In
honor of the suns turning back from
bis downward journey, which was rec.
ognized as the days began to grow
longer This second celebration was
quite naturally the happiest time, the
people holding the sun In such fear
in June. 1t was then the mistletoe
was honored as being the very essence
of the oak
When eventually the church was es-
tablished and It's followers turned the
ancient December celebration into
Christmas, the mistletoe was hung up
by way of compromise, although 1t had |
to do with the new religion. |
And SO even today, in our use of ever

WOMEN HAVE STRONGER EYES

Expert opthalmologists, such as have

eye of the woman is no more near

that OF man. Physically the two sexes
are on exactly the same level through
out the whole structural condition of
their eyes.

show that men are twenty times as
liable to color blindness as women:
the averages show two women out of
every thousand color blind. where
there are forty men found wanting on

ords contend that men, being ex.
amined far more numerously for color

THE CALL OF CHRISTMAS
Inspiration Of Time Should Bring us
Deeper Sense of Personal Re-

II is Christmas time, and at this
moment the call is to lift up our
hearts and welcome the Light of the
World, to rest for a while in the glory
of that light; not, indeed, forgetting
the lessons he would have us learn,
nor those great servants of his who
taught us to know and love and work.
and have passed away; but in thank
fulness and alteration seeking to learn
more and more how he would have
us serve him. The inspiration of this
blessed time should bring us a deeper
sense Of personal responsibility, and
of our duty to our neighbor in regard
to questions touching the general well
fare; and, beyond all, deeper faith
that faith by which mountains can be
removed-and truer love. devotion
that can bear even the reproach Of the
cross, II permission may but be grant
ed to share in bearing part Of that
burden.
The advent Of Christ makes us debt
ors to God and man. It is therefore
not for us to question whether others
are kind to us, as whether there Is
love, gentleness, meekness, sympathy
and helpfulness In our own lives, or
not With this spirit Of the season
reflected and perpetuated in the life,
Christmas giving will resolve itself
into Christ-like giving every day from
Christmastide to Christmastide of ev-
cry year of grace. Christ came not to
be ministered unto, but to minister, to
suffer, and to die for others, even his
enemies. Rising far above the lower
aim of getting and gaining solely for
self, the grateful heart will ask:
what can give to my Redeemer
who gave himself for me, and what
can do for others, for his sake, and
the gospeps?" That is the reincarna-
tion of the Christ spirit, and exalts
him who said: "And |, If be lifted up,

OLD STORIES OF CHRISTMAS
Some Have Interest, Freshness and
Beauty That Keep Them Al
ways New.

There are some so-called "old sto-
ries" that are really not old, for they
have an interest, a freshness and a
beauty that keep them always new.
OF such are the story of Christmas
and all the legends and tales that be-
long to the great festival
There is legend in Germany that
when Eve plucked the fatal apple the
leaves of the tree Immediately shriv-
eled into needle points and its bright
green turned dark The nature of
the tree changed and 1t became an
evergreen, in all seasons preaching
the story of mans fall through that
first act of disobedience. Only on
Christmas does 1t bloom brightly with
lights and become beautiful with love
gifts. The curse is turned into q
blessing by the coming of the Christ
child, and thus we have our Christmas
tree.
The visits Of st. Nicholas to the
homes of the people on Christmas eve
as an annual custom grew out of a
festival In honor of Hertha, a Morse
goddess. At this festival the house
was decorated with evergreens and an
altar of stone was set UP at the end
of the hall, where the family assem-.
bled. From Hertha's stone we get our
word "hearthstone." On the stones
so set up we're heaped fir branches.

SHEPHERDS WATCH AT NIGHT
