True Erlendship.

What Is a sure key TO the conf.
dence of the other person? Some peO-
pie invariably win that confidence ;
others seldom do. A little girl of nine
was telling her mother with great en-
thusiasm how much she liked certain
friend who was past seventy yenrs Of
age. In spite of the difference in ages,
there was n deep, warm bond between
them. "Why is II you like her so
much?" the mother asked. "Well.
SiOther, there are great many rea-
sons" was the little girls reply; "hut
one thing is, she's the understanding.
est person ever met" She did not
need to say more. The older friend
had put herself in the nine-year-olds
place, thought her thoughts. and then,
without talking down" to her. made
her feel that they two had common
Interest and could talk together as
equals. We can always do that in our
relationships with others-if we will
love, and think. No one gets into the

KEEN MEMORY FOR FACES
Colonel Roosevelt Remembered, After
Two Years, Man Whom He Had
Only Met In a Crowd.

Colonel Roosevelt has one of the
most wonderful memories | ever heard
of, particularly for faces and Names"
said G. Il. Embree of the Maine Farm
ers' Union. 81 first met him some
where about 1906 at Riverhead, Long
Island, when perhaps 5000 persons
were introduced to him.
About two years later / met him on
the street at Oyster Bay. He was In
his shirtsleeves, swinging along to the
postofiice, and being hailed by every
one who saw him, old and young.
said: Good morning, sir. as we met.
"He paused, rather squlnted at my
face and slowly replied: Good morn
ing. Your name Is Embree, is it notT
admitted It, in astonlshment at his
memory, and asked, But where did
you meet meT and rs quickly as
flash came: Riverhead, wasn't itY
But you met 5000 men that day. %.
that doesn't make any difference
The next meeting with the colonel
was In 1912 at Nashua, N. II. l was
passing around one car to take an
other and stepped a little one side
10 allow Il man to pass. He casually
looked at me and sang out with
smile; Hello, Long Islandr and was
gone. 1t is wonderful to me that mans
memory of names and faces. ."-Kenne-

Neninot 10 Praise

In the faithful soul blooms the how-
er Of alteration. II the soul wishes
nothing for itself and is paying no
debt, If the greatness and the good
ness of God simply overwhen 1t,
then the praise of God ascends to
heaven In song of pslam. We praise
God far too little. We accept thought.
lessly the great and the good, we chlde
at the evil. We neglect too much to
praise him and adore. So II is good.
at least when occasion Is given us In
the church in the beautiful hymns of
praise from all ages to attune uir
souls to such high accords which exal,
aud emunclpate us even us they re-
joice God In heaven.

mother for her babe is the strongest
OF all love men know OF. For her
babe n mother will dare all things,

makes 1t Impossible for God TO forget.
We are continually before him. Wheth-
er we wake or sleep, his eye which
never slumbers, Is upon us. Whether
we work or play his attention never
lags. Whether we are at home or
abroad his thoughts follow us. God
never forgets. The king of Babylon
might some day find II beyond his

John Smith says: "The extreme cold.
frost, rain and snow caused us to keep
Christmas among the sayages, where
we were never more merry nor had
more good oysters, fish, flesh, wild fowl
and good bread nor ever had bet
ter fires in England" Kiplng, too,
refers to the memory Of Yuletide in his
BLACK Sheep with the couplet, AT
home they are making merry, twiXt
the white and scarlet berry" And so
we should garland the house with trail
ing pine, hang the wreaths of holly in
the window and the mistletoe meath
the chandelier. II helps others II il
does not help you.
Boston's Fine Example.
Last Christmas in Boston the mayor
requested everyone in the city to leave
their window shades up on Christmas
eve to help light the city. Such
glow as II gave to old Bea-
con street and Commonwealth avenue
Down In the Public gardens the city
was enjoying its municipal Christmas
tree, a stately fir, bedecked with myri-
nd colored electric bulbs, while the
band played old familiar carols that
veered into popular street songs be-
fore the crowd scattered. The scene
was significant of Christmas now be-
ing cosmopolitan festival holding
the heart of Puritan New England,
whose holy of holes has heretofore
been Thanksgiving. This is right, and
rs it should be, since ours is land

so shall thy strength be-" Deut. 80 20.
There may be days Of darkness upon
our journey, when 1t will seem us
though the light could never pene-
trate. Days when trouble and dis.
tress will be upon us, such trouble
and distress as to blot out all the past
and future, making us feel forsaken
of God and man. Days of such glO-
riOus sunshine and shadow as to al.
most make us forget our God. Bul
through all the days, whether of glad.
ness or sorrow, ''all the days of our
life" our needs will be supplied. We
may be certain of this because of what
God Is and what we are TO him. We
need to trust him as resources grow
low and the meal barrel is empty be-
cause he supplies "Every day a pOr.
tion." We may, II we will cease all
)ur worry, for he will supply every
lay a portion. "all the days of our
life" All we have, our friends In.
cluded, might be goE!, In the morn
Ing, but we car never open our eyes
to another day and not find our God
with us ready to gruclously and boun.
tifully supply our every need.

low like sheep the leadership of some
foolish friend who either has more
cents and less sense than the average,
because we are the slaves of custom,
Christmas Is the season for the Christ
Child-when simplicity and sincerity
should dominate love of ostentatlon
and all pretense. 1t Is hard In this
day of luxury to experience new SEN
sation; for children are sated on the
threshold of life with gifts that would
have astonished George Washington
and taken away the breath of little
backwoods Abraham Lincoln. 1t is no
use telling your child to eat his red
apple and suck his stick of candy with
thankful heart If little Bobbie next
door owns a motorcycle and real pig-
skin. Precious poor fun will your lit
tie Mary Jane find In her rag baby IL
lnez Doris has a bisque French doll
that can talk. And so we are happy or
miserable, poor or rich by contrast;
those comparisons that are obvious If
odious.
