The Glory Star
By Benjamin +, Jackson
(Copyrightedl.

Two thousand years we've guessed in
vain
When came that wondrous star.
Whose glory flooded Bethlehem's
plain
And Wise Men saw from far
Blind science failed that star to find
In all the azure blue;
But love sent angels to mankind.
With songs and Glory, too.
A glory that all suns outshone:
with songs Of Peace on earth;~
One burst Ct glory from Gods throne
To hail Messlah's birth.
Its splendor pierced the shades of
night
To earth's remotest bound,
And nations read the sign Alright
When GLORY shone around"
"A start" they cry: "Messiah's start
A light Angelic light
The king is born in judah fart
The Prince arrives tonight
10, rouse vel Magi, beg and buy
Ten camels strong and fleet
A Caravan complete
Take gold and frankincense and
myrrh,
To lay at His dear feet
A Gentle tribute metel
"Gold for His crown-He1l rule the
world.
Incense, for He's devinel
His flag of power shall be unfurled,-
lDespots and Mammon down be
All lands kneel at His shrinel"
This was the peoples Advent Song;
And on the Magi pressed
Their wealth of gifts, urging them on
Their long and dangerous quest.
In gorgeous robes and brave array.
Adorned with many a gem,
A thousand leagues they plod their
way
To old Jerusalem.
"where is the King? We come from
farl
The King have yet not found?
Two years agone we saw His star,
When Glory shone aroundl
The Gentiles send us forth to greet
This newborn heavenly Kingl
We came to worship at His feet:

Il have been asked by lady friend

TO be asked to write about, as I hardly
know anything at all Of it.
THE women, believe, are divided
into four classes sufferegettes,
who break windows, throw black stun

Lloyd Georges new houses-the suf-

vote, but who don't want them to do
wild things-the antics, who are most
Iy stupid, and don't want women to
vote at all-and the ones who don't
care If they get the vote or not. The
sufferigists are far the most clever
usually. The sufferigettes are really
not much to be blamed for their con-
duct, for Mr.. Asquith and Lloyd
George, and the rest Of them, have
always been promising them the vote.

Small BOY, just Entering Scholastic
Career, Accumulates Several Ju-
ventle Affections.

The eldest boy OF the family. hav-
ing reached the mature age Of six,
had started upon his scholastic ca
reer.
Before he had pursued his studies
a week. however. he caught a fine
case OF chicken pox and had to take
temporary vacation, during which
he shared his affection with his young
er brothers.
But all were well at the end Of the
third or fourth week, and he started
to school again.
In a few days he came home with
the mumps. He shared this likewise
with the other Juveniles of the family,
and had to take another protracted
vacation, but all outlived the mumps,
and In due time he went back to
school as before.
All went we'll for about two weeks.
Then he caught the measles.
Having plenty to spare, he passed
a few of them to his little brothers
But at last the doctor ordered the
warning sign taken down from the
door, and the boy was permitted tc
go to school once more.
Mamma" said little Jamie as his
elder brother took his books and his
departure, Il wonder what Yarley'n

phosphorus is claimed by scientists
to be essential to our health and vigor.
Our bones are much stronger and

Skin Troubles
Remarkable Remedy That
Works Wonders Against
Eczema and All Rash

Ii you have been fighting some blood
, trouble, some skin disease, call it eczema.
lupus, psoriasis, malaria, or what YOU
will, there is but one sure, safe way to
get rid of it. Ask at any drug store for
Sl.o0 bottle of S. S. S. and you are then
on the road to health. The action of this
remarkable remedy is just as direct, lust
as positive, just as certain in its inf1u-
ence as that the sun rises in the East.
1t is one OF those rare medical forces
which act in the blood with the same de-
gree OF certainty that is found in all nat
ural tendencies. The manner in which
it dominates and controls the mysterious
transfefence of rich, red, pure arterial
blood for the diseased venous blood is
marvellous.
Out through every skin pore acids,
germs and other blood impurities are
forced in the form of invisible vapor
Beneath the skin is a fine net work of
nerves, myriad of them in which S. S. S.
works with untiring energy to prevent
the further destructive work of the acids
and blood impurities. These are scat
tered into the veins to be driven from
the system. The lungs breathe it out,
the liver is stimulated to consume a.
great proportion of impurities, the stom-
ach and intestines cease to convey into
the blood stream the catarrhal, malarial
germs; the bowels, kidneys, bladder and
all emunctories of the body are narshaled
into fighting force to expel every ves-
tige of eruptive disease
There is scarcely a community any,
where but what has it's living example

edy to-day, and if your case is stubborn

CONSIDER ONLY DUTY
LABRADOR PHYSICIANS NEVER
FINCH FROM DANGER.
Answering Call at Night Seems Hard
ship to Doctors In Civilized Coun-
tries, but Read These Expert
ences in the North.

An urgent call in Labrador means
not only Inconvenience and hardship
to the doctor and his sledge drivers
but actual danger. Nevertheless, no
one ever f1inches from his duty. Dr.
G. X. Hutton tells of one such call.
On bitterly cold and stormy night
the message came from the mission
airy at Hebron, II miles away: Come,
my people are dying" 1t was an ur-
gent call and there must be no delay
Quickly the dogs were harnessed to
the sledge, the Eskimo drivers were
In place; everything was ready.
1t was pitchy black when we
started. A raw air came moaning
from the east; it chilled us through
our sealskins and made our cheeks
and noses ache. When I tried to
warm my stiffening toes by an occa-
sional trot alongside the sledge I kept
stumbling over jagged points of ice
until one of the men shouted: "Sit
still, or we shall be losing you'll"
After that sat still and hoped for
morning. For two solid hours the
agony went on, and then faint glim-
mer Of gray began to show in the
east; it changed to dull red, sullen
and lurid in the morning haze, and we
began to see the wide stretch of
white ice beside us, and black and
awful sea ahead of us. The ice in the
bay had broken with the storm!
OrThnro &c cold.
the ice is all broken there round the
1eadland. Let us turn homeward."

He walked along the ice at the foot
of the rocks, now standing for a mo-

Labrador, the most vivid is the mem
Try Of that race along the fringe of
Zee at the foot of the cliffs. On the

he right the black water churned and
umbled and ground the floating ice
pans together; beneath us the thick

Ind there the water came swirling
through.
sit tight, sit Tight" said the
1rivers, and there we sat, bowling
long over the heavy ice. Sometimes
,ne of the men pushed out a leg to
guide the sledge around a bend, or
70 check it's speed. At the place
where the guide led us to the head
and the ice was broken away from
he rock, and was rising and falling

he next it sank away again. The
logs went scrambling over, glad to
yet on to something firm; but the driv-

hey started the dogs again, and
jumped across the crack just as it

Finally, in the dark of night, we
