agony in our moral struggles; so much mystery in our ealamities and d1sas- terS; so much misery and unaccount- able misfortune in life that faith has all ages clamored for an actual sight of God.
 The Great Joy of Christmas.
 Now it Is the great joy of Christmas day that in the incarnation of the Son of God God has coudescended to meet mans cry and has given us an intimate vision of himself, his char acter and his plans for man. While it still remains true that no man hath seen God at any time, yet the great fact for which Christmas stands is the coming to earth in human nature and form of the only begotten Son, who IS in the bosom of the Father, to declare, to manifest God to mans sight. The incarnation was wonderfully adapted to meet mans need and cry for the only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father is entirely fitted to re- veal the father. He who could say I and My Father are one thing; he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father. was never for a moment uncertain as to what the Father would say or do or wish. In order to manifest God in ways and manners that man could understand from his own experience there was need of the incarnation; the only begotten Son of the Father need ed to take mans nature and experience it's weaknesses, temptations, sorrows and needs. Only so could He declare or manifest Gods love and mercy and forebearanee. yes, Gods capacity Tor suffering and self sacrifice; and so en- courage mans ideals and give firm basis for his hopes for time and eter- nifty.
 Supreme Proof in Jesus.
 We have asked for visible proofs of Gods love and God has answered us in the loving and self sacrificing life of Jesus, whose love hesitated not to give the last proof of it's consistency in a final prayer for his enemies. We have asked fefrconcrete proofs ot Gods s mercy and tenderness towards the sin her and God has answered us in Jesus treatment of publicans and sinners, painting the supreme proof in the death upon the cross. Gods sympathy is shown in Jesus weeping at the grave of Lazarus and over the doom of Jer usalem and his healing of all manner of sickness. Gods aid in temptation is shown in Jesus own temptations and struggles. God has shown us that he does not overlook the individual and his particular sorrows and needs in Jesus readiness to respond to every cry of need. The incarnate Son of God His teaching and His life answer the cry of all the ages for a concrete man Hesitation of God, The fact that the Son of God did live this life, in our own flesh and blood, and in so doing man ifested God as a loving merciful, sym pathetic, self sacrificing Father to all his human creatures, is the greatest, grandest and most significant fact in all history, joining forever this hu- man nature of ours with the divine na- ture of the Son of God. Aand this great fact for which Christmas day stands justifes all our trials and sor- rows and gives amplest warrant to all our highest hopes for time and for eternity

M arriaue.

There are in the city of Chicago, let us say. five hundred thousand pairs of men and women who have under taken to spend their lives in the ap- palling intimacy of marriage-to ere ate homes where they may rear chtl- dren However convinced one may be that the greatest development and the most abiding satisfaction come to the average man and woman through the family he cannot but be staggered by the demand it makes on freedom, effort, capacity. At one point or another of the alliance both the man and woman almost invariably break down. All de- pends then on character, the sense ot the obligation to correct. to take fresh hold. There is an amazing percentage of fair success in marriage. It is this relation that life's most terrible bat ties are fought and the most stu pendous victories gained. Neverthe- less, failures are many. They range in degree from patient acceptance of the situation to open rupture. .'-American Magazine.

Short Sermons.

The question raised by the late Dean Hole as to the ideal length of a sermon is one on which different people, according perhaps to their re- ligious procliyities, have diverse opin- ions; but if the preference of royalty may be taken as standard, the flaw orite time appears to be in the region of twenty miutes.
 Queen Victoria's objection to long sermons may be understood by the fact that in 1887 she presented 9 pull pit glass to the Chapel Royall Sa- Yoy, and it was timed for exactly eighteen minutes. The preacher who wished to find favor with her majesty, therefore, always took the hint and watched the glass carefully.
 King Edward declared for even greater brevity. In the arrangements for his coronation the sermon by the Bishop of London was allotted to five minutes.
 Napoleon III strictly limited preachers before him to quarter of an hour. and if they exceeded it an officer of the Imperial Household stepped to the pulpit and stopped the discourSe.--Tir Bits.

CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT
 AT LUTHERAN CHURCH.
An Enjoyable Programme Given by
 Sunday School Thursday Evening.

In the parlors of the German Lu- theran church there was a joyful cele bration of Christmas by the Sunday school on Thursday evening which was largely attended and nicely carried out Rev Theodor Bauck presiding, by the members of the school who took part Of particular merit was the musical portion of the programme contributed by the double quartette from Taftville somewhat augmented, under the direc tion of Prof. Alfred Bruckseh. This splendid chorus of singers comprised Carl Hoefer, Chris Seidel, Gustave Kampff Eda Rosoll, Freda and Anna Krause, Paula and Elsie Bauck, Bertha and Minnie Dziomba. Another group of singers who were much appreciated were Hans Bauck, Albert Karkutt, Fred and Dietrich Meyer, Anna and Bertha Schultz and Louise Heigl. Solos by Miss Elsie Bauok were beauti- fully rendered and there was an inter esting programme of recitations by the children. following which there was distribution of fruit and candy and other tokens of holiday spirit.

Sunday School Founder.

Robert Raikes, the man who founded the modern Sunday school, was a jour nalist with a passion for what he termed 'botanizing in human nature" " His great experiment is said to have been suggested by the disturbance caused by crowds of little ragamuffins playing beneath his window on Sunday afternoons when he was correcting proofs "Why should they not be got together and taught the elements of religion and good behaviour he asked himself, and answered the question by establishing the first Sunday school in Gloucester, England, in 17S0. It was characteristic of the man that in his school scheme he laid as great stress upon the medication of manners as on the teaching of the catechisn1.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR
 CITY COURT PRISONERS
Judge Kelly Discharged Five Men Without Fines-Two Others Went to TaiI

The Christmas spirit made itself ap- parent eveen in the city court Thurs day morning, Jude T. J. Kelly presid- ing. There were seven eases before the e<lrt of men who had offended by Christmas eve intemperance. Five of the prisoners were dissharged by the judge without payment, and these Christmas gifts thus handed out estab- fish a precedent in the Norwich city court. An old offender, William J. Hall, however, was sent to jail for 15 days, and Frank Krolzaek of Port Henry went to jail to begin to work out a fine of $7 which with the coses brought it up to $17.95. This prisoner reached over the bar at the Katz saloon, at the corner of Falls avenue and West Main street and tried to make off with a couple bottles of gin When the owner objected Krolzacl1 came down on his head with one of the bottles and open ed up the propTietor's scalp.

AT ST. PATRIcks CHURCH.
Christmas Day Services Began With High Mass at 5.30-SpeciaI Music Beautiful,

The commemoration of the Festival of the Nativity began at St. Patrick s Thursday morning with a high mass at 530 sung by the rector, Rev. John H. Broderick. At 7.30 Rev. Myles P. Calvin read a low mass, and the chil- dren's mass at g was said by Rev. Thomas A. Grumbly, who also cele- brated the high mass at 10.30: The yestments and altar hangings were white and gold and the sanctuary and altar decorations palms, smilax and white and pink roses, arranged by the Sisters of Mercy.
 In the special musical programmes arranged by Choirmaster Frank L.. Farrell well trained voices joined the globe-circling chorus in Adeste, Fideles, the majestic hymn of the church for centuries. At the 10.30 o'clock mass Bakers string orchestra supplemented the organ. There was pleasing solo work by Mrs. F. l.. Farrell and William Goodfellow. At the g o'clock mass the junior choir sang well under direction of Miss Ruth Jor- dan, organist The offertory solo was Jordan playing the violin obligato. Benediction of the blessed sacrament followed the last mass.
 Rev. Father Broderick preached from the gospel for Christmas, Luke ii 1-14, his theme being the peace which Christ's coming signified. In Old Testament times the records of Gods manifestations to man are chief ly of a character to excite fear, or to administer punishment Although men had continued to offend God, He made Himself man and came to redeem sim ners, not with the heralding and pomp of a king, but as an humble Babe, bringing the message of a peace which passeth all understanding.
 The true effect of Christmas day is lost unless man is at peace with him. self, with his neighbor and with God. This thought was carried out by the preacher in a most convincing manner and his auditors were reminded how the peace which passeth understand ing is to be gained and conserved.

 Use of Anaesthetic.

New York, Dec. 25-5With six stitch es taken in his heart tonight, Vim cenzo Lauro, victim of a stabbfng af- fray, is expected to live. When taken to the Holy Family hospital in Brook lyn the surgeons decided that the rare operation was necessary.

Late tonight the patient was improving. so fast that the surgeons declared they expected his recovery.
