WHEN SOCIETY SHOULD FORGIVE.

There is the case Of Emile Dealon of
New Orleans.

set fire to a church. The other lad
turned states evidence. and Dealon

Orleans, married and settled down.
Three children were born to him.
He had happy home and was con-
sidered a model citizen,
Then, like stab in the back or
blow in the darkness. some anonymous
correspondent told of Dealon's past.
He was arrested for the boyish
prank of thirty-three years before.
His wife was Frustrated by the blow
and was sent to the hospital. The
three innocent children will have a
shadow over them to the end OF their
lives.
To the credit of the citizens OF New
Orleans be it said that petition was
at once circulated and largely signed
for Dealons pardon.
Possibly by the time this reaches the
reader he will be a free man. Let us
hope so.
Yet this stigma will remain. and the
pity Of 1t is that it will also attach

LOVE MEANS SELF SACRIFICE.

There is pathetic story from Cleve.
land Of a mother who wanted to keep
her children forever babies.
Most parents. especially mothers.
have had similar yearnings.
This mother did not stop with long
ing, however. She tried to defeat ma
ture and time. She did not teach her
little ones to talk or walk. She con-
tinued feeding them baby food. She
took them from the house only after
dark.
She admitted no one to their pres
ence. She wanted them all for her
very own.
1t was by accident that the authori-
ties discovered the sad plight Of the
little ones. There were three of :hem
two. three and four years old.
The four-year-old still crept about
the floor and cOoed In baby fashion.
Such an influence had the mothers
mind and methods upon him that they
had stunted his physical growth. He

Put the Stamp Of Universal
ity on Christianity.

They were wise men indeed who.
after inQuiring for the new born king.
turned their backs on rich and gay
Jerusalem. and set their faces to the
obscurity and poverty of Bethlehem.
They were men OF rank and wealth
and learning from the far east-rep
resentatives OF all that was best and
noblest In the civilization Of the old
world. They had only the scantiest
opportunities OF learning what was
the hope OF Israel. and how 1t would
be realized: but they were earnest
men. They had studied the heavens
and the earth until their souls were
full OF God In his glory and majesty.
These men yearned to know II he.
whose glory Is in the heavens. would
stoop to cure the Ills OF humanity
They had heard OF lsraers hope. the
hope of a child to be born OF Davids
race, who would bring divine mercy
near to human need. They had
vague idea that the time for that full
filment was drawing near; and as
they unused. behold a marvellous ap-
pearance in the heavens which
seemed to call them away to seek
him whom their souls desired. Hence
their long journey to Jerusalem, and
their eager departure for Bethlehem.
And when they arrived at the house
they we're not offended by the poverty
OF the surroundings or the humble in
mates. They recognized In the little
Child the object OF their search;
