 The edge of the tray may be dee orated with a garland of green and Christmas uOSeg1y with bit of cherry red ribbon laid beside the cover, and there may be a miuiaure forest ol Christmas greens, in which the orange or grapefruit is placed.
 One great advantage in the indiyid- ual dinner is that the invalid need not wait and may be served without wait ing while others are enjoying them selves. A plump squab or young chicken, already sliced. but apparently whole, with flashing crimson bows ou its leg, may symbolic the turkey. The cranberry sauce may appear as a star in the center of the mashed potatoes and any one who has carried trays will appreciate the space and the lighiuess of one dish less when two can be com biued

RELATIONS OF GOD AND MAN
tinuaI Advance Toward the
Higher Life.

In studying the Bible it becomes in
creasingly apparent that the relations
between God and man are not con-
stant or fixed, but are subject to a
gradual readjustment. In the earlier
chapters the ideal held out is for man
to fear God. Later he learns to
trust, to limited extent, this higher
life. Eventually this grudging faith
is turned to love- which recognizes God
as the father, constantly giving him
self, as life and wisdom, to his chill
dren. And beyond this comes that
fruition OF growth which constitutes
real unity; man is merged with God.
and comes to realize that Il and the
Father are one"
God never changes, but our under
standing of him does change And
it Is the evolution of this ideal which
we have of the great sea of life in
which we live, and which lives in
and through US, which constitutes real
growth and advancement Life is for
that; the everyday tasks tend toward
the bringing forth of self-conscious-
less, which is always a fuller consci-
BUSINESS Of God.--From the Nautilus.

FEW CAN ESCAPE NOSTALGIA
All Classes and From Every
Variety Of People.

German sailors on steamships which
are held up in New York are said to
have, several of them, gone mad. Idle
ness and homesickness are the causes,
hospital authorities say.
Homesickness finds strange victims.
Army surgeons know that sometimes
1t kills. Often it is the man without
regular home who is most subject
to nostalgia. This disturbance Of
soul, mind and body settles down upon
the phlegmatic, the burly, the thick
skinned. 1t takes them under sunny
skies amid the earth's best loveliness
and they moan for dirty streets where
they played in childhood
Idleness breeds homesickness and
active diversion cures it, 1t is akin
to melancholia and comes in mystic
rious ways. Probably 1t arises from
the biological impulse intended to an
chor man in one place long enough
for him to take root. Its opposing in
stinct is the wanderlust.
Explorers have confessed that the
worst homesickness they have known
was In the first few hours and days
of their return. In familiar surround
ings the marks of times ineXorable
progress were painfully apparent.
Changes, small and large, tortured
them by reminders Of the precious
past. Some have turned In respondent
revulsion to take up their roamings
again.
