Everyone finds himself in the

reveals God to man: There are
many men out onl one one MANHOOD
and that is revealed in Christ. There
are many reasons but only one rea-
son that is universal and divine ana
we find that in our knowledge of the
Christ.
In our knowledge OF Christ we
learn OF the Father all that we can

that life in Christ. He came to this
world not to get men to heaven out
to get heaven into men. not to Keep
people out Of he'll but TO get the nell
OF sin OUT OF man.
It Is in our knowledge OF Christ
that we find the right dispositions OF

that they underlie all the works OF

Courage for Life Work
The heart finds courage in tho
knowledge of Christ for all the tasks
and triais of life. This was wildly
illustrated from the life OF one of the
APOSTLES and from personal expert
ence.
hunaniry,s questions concerning the
eternal future find their solution
Every heart has its great questions
that science can never settle and for
which philosophy offers no help.
These questions imply the existence
of a life beyond and concerning them

The Approaching Holidays.

About this time every year the peo-
pie commence talking about Christ
mas and the gifts they will bestow.
1t is but little trouble for some to
make selections; others find it very
difficult to select just what they want
By looking through the show windows,
it does seem like the desires of both
the young and the old could be salts
fed, as many handsome and useful ar
ticles, suitable for gifts, are on dis
play. A mistake is often made in
buying for children. Instead of Sc
Letting articles that are soon broken
and thrown into junk piles, buy pres
ents that are useful, something they
can keep-nice books and articles that
will not break from slight fall.
Another thing should be strictly
kept inviolable. Do not tell a child
that old Santa is going to bring it
certain things, and then have the
child disappointed when the time
comes Stick to your promises, there
by making the little ones happy.
Columbia, like all towns of its size.
has within its borders poor children,
some of them orphans, hence arrange.
mentS should be made in due time, by
the five Churches, whereby every
child within the corporate limits
should be remembered. Christian
talks and Christian promises do but
little good without action. Help the
poor and when you lie down at night
your conscious will be at ease and you
will be blessed with peaceful sleep.
We have never known a man who
practiced real charity-giving to the
worthy unfortunate, whom God did
not prosper.

LoUnGERs HAVE NEW GAME
What 10 Known as Shoe Poker 10
Amusing the Idle Young Men
of New York.

Have you taken hand at shoe
poker? It's a merry little pastime.
and, thanks to several shoe designers
running riot this summer. its likely to
prove one OF our best known outdoor
sports for the season.
Just at present shoe poker parties
are confined to the idle young men
who make the corners of Broadway
in the theatrical district look busy.
Every hand is jackpot. and each
player is entitled to five shoes The
game is played after this fashion,:
The first player elects to chose the
shoes worn on the first five women to
pass the corner. The second player
the next FIVE. and so on. II the first
five women who pass the corner are
wearing the regulation lace-up.the.
front shoes the player has a straight.
If the second group OF FIVE women all
chance TO have on boots of the same
color-whlte. black, champagne or
any one OF the dozen or so various
colors that are worn this season-th the
second player calls a flush and natur-
ally beats the straight.
II. IN the third group of five female
shoe wearers. there are two pairs lac
ing np the froR and three laclng up
the side. that sNh full house. and tho
third hand beats both the other hands.
Because of the variety of design in
female boot toggery this year there
are surprising number OF combina-
tons that can be made. and shoe
poker has. for the time Mt least. made
tine corner sports forget all about
white horses. red-haired girls and au-
fomobile poker,--New York World.
