RAILROADS IN CHINA.

The first railroad in China, from
Shanghai to Woosung a distance of
eleven miles, was publicly opened thir-
ty-Seven years ago today. The pulling
locomotives aroused CONSERVATION and
fear in the hearts Of tho Chinese. and
the line had to be constantly guarded
To prevent them from tearing up the
track. So great was the public clamor
that the government bought the road,
intending to destroy it, but this dccis-
ion was reversed. and operation was
resumed in 1877. In the following year,
however, the tracks were torn up and
all the portable property of the pio-
neer Chinese railway was removed to
FormOSa. In a few years other short
lines were constructed. and opposition
to the innovation gradually died out
In 1908 China had $500 miles of rail
way IN operation, and l,S00 miles have
been completed since then, while over
1000 miles more are projected or build

ways. reaching every part of china. to

are are bent on half conscious
search after truth. The Holy Grail
hangs glimmering in the back
ground of our thoughts; we feel a
wave of delight course through us
as we are confronted by a symbol
of actuality.
We seem trembling toward dis
covery of self. If the reality we have
found is grounded upon ideality then
we are at rest filled with a sublime
contentment.
Such reality and ideality are found
in Christ. He is the center from
which radiate million-fold lines of IT.
ridescent truth, beaming into the dim
ness of remotest space
Attuned to the infinite beauty and
harmony of the All Wise, we tremble
when manifestation of this perfect
sympathy passes before us. The gross
sinks quite out of sight and the spirit
rises.
AS the centuries have faded into
that long glimmering vista of an eter-
nifty that lies behind, we have become
more and more heavily weighted with
the "carnal mesh" so that today we
are prone to miss the glory of inn
maculate truth.
Miss it though we may in other
things, yet we find this truth and
joy in the unexpressible sweetness OF
Giving. It matters not at all if the
gift be poor, the cost slight, the value
small Though it be ever so worth
less in the port of the worlds ex-
change, once Gift it has become
priceless in the eyes of the recipient,
set with the jewels of the givers soul
and beautifed with the glory of his
love. A sublime Transformation has
raised it out of the dross into the
ETHEREAL brightness of the realm that
is circled by affection.
The climax of delights incident to
generosity is reached at this time.
Other days in the year we are wise
and careful in our giving, but this
one day we give with a supreme in
difference to the rules of benevolent
society. Once in the whole year we
are to realize that it is more blessed
to give than to receive.
The hallewed memories of Christ

sordidness. For one little moment
out of a whole year we stand and
gaze upon the manifestation of a
power we do not understand, great

THE DISCIPLINE THAT COUNTS

THE DISCIPLINE THAT COUNlo
ITHE CHIEF problem that mod
i ern schools and modern par
= ents have to- contend with
it would seem from the amount
Of discussion which it evokes, is
the problem of discipline. On the
one hand are those who would over
emphasize discipline to the point of
thwarting every natural play impulse
On the part of the child, leaving him
warped and hardened in his nature,
and on the other hand there are those
who seem to suppress almost every
form of discipline in order that the
child may grow up as the flower"
and the result often is that he grows
as the weed.
The case for discipline is undeni-
ably a strong one. Everybody knows

under fire, but the man who has had
his discipline stand by, does the best
he can and awaits the logic of events.
Kipling's poem praises the man
who can keep his head when all about
you are losing theirs and blaming it
On you" This is the best proof of
the true interior discipline that wins
out. Any man can tell an employer
who justly or unjustly critics him.
eff you don't like what do, get some
body else in my place." but only the
man who has the sense of his dis
cipline can keep still, go on about
his work and wait for others to get
control of themselves and come around
to common ground again.
The best discipline comes early, but
it is not all the discipline there is.
The whole life is discipline in keep
ng ones head, standing harmmering
without "squealing," in not throwing
up the hands when things go wrong,
in listening to criticism, just or un-

superficiality was over all, even
as it now is, mem turned once
a year into the path of sincerity, il
Illuminated by the CLEAN of genuine
truth. Those were the days @of poetry
and romance, when all were full of
life, a life that burned and throbbed
through the veins. They drank and
wasted time and money during the
winter and spring and summer and
fall, but when Christmas came they
were just themselves;plain men and
women, filled with sympathy, throw
ing their great halls open, giving of
great cheer, feeding the multitudes
in His name.
The saddest thought that comes at
this season, is that we have lost this
early sincerity. From one cause and
another we have become so coated
over with the habits of busy world
that we are not willing to lay aside
the hurry and the pretense for even
one day. The scowl has dented the
forehead too deeply, it will not away.
But there are many beautiful things
hidden in the blackness. Struggling
through the torrent of counter desires
comes the small voice that cries soft

vanished hopes. 1t is the last pulse
of sincerity throbing towards the
surface.
