The Christmas Rose.

TT was In ireland heard the beau
tiful legend of the Christmas rose'
SAYS a writer in the Philadelphia
Ledger. When the great night came
and the dark skies were suddenly IL
Illuminated with the lights Of heaven
the shepherds, gathering together their
Offering went with haste to hnd MN
who had come to be the Light OF the
world. Great rough men, full of sim
pie faith, they were, and each carried
n little lamb In his arms to lay at the
feet of the Good Shepherd. But among
them was one wee lad who had no
gift.
All his life long he had heard OF the
Messiah who was to come. The earth
was full of rumors that the time was
near at hand, and lying out on the
hillside under the deep blue sky he had
dreamed dreams of that day, picturing
himself close to him in many roles.
And now that the moment was come
he raced along, his tiny legs finding It
hard work to keep up with the swift
strong stride OF the men.
SO full Of excitement was he that no
thought of self entered into his mind.
But as he came to the cave, saw the
bright star shining above and heard
the songs of the angels he noticed his
empty hands.
How could he go into the presence
of the newborn King when he had
nothing to lay at his feet, he VINO
would so willingly lay down his very
life for him He crept close to the
opening, and, kneeling down In the
cold white snow, he wept as though
his little heart would break.
And, 10, the warm tears melted away
the hard snow, and from beneath there
sprang up the first Christmas rose, the
fruit of little boys love for the
Christ Child

orIuIn Of the Carol.

Glory to God in the highest and on
earth peace, good will toward men.-Luke
2:1L
Such was the first carol, sung by the
holy angels amid the thrilling scene
so vividIy described by the evangelist.
This song is happily used in the com
munion service as the opening OF
aGloria In Excelsis Deo." The word
carol seems to be derived from the
Italian verb carolare-to sing|mply-
ing a 10Y song. an outburst of exuber-
ance. In the time of Chaucer, who
died in 400. this word usually meant
simultaneous dancing and singing
Gradually its secular origin was be
clouded, and nowadays a carol general
IL means q Christmas song Of thanks
giving. though there we're formerly not
only Easter carols. but also winter and
even sumner carols.-Living Church.

The Good old Customs.

BY all means, so long as they VIII
endure, let us cling to the old Gus
toms. Up with the holly, the box and
the bay, set the plum pudding ablaze'
light the Christmas tree, scatter greet
ings broadcast through the land, ring
out wild bells to the wide sky and give
announcement to the carol singers.
Christmas comes but once year, and
when it comes it makes us all kin and
more or less kind. It is a truly happy
festival, the time when we best under
stand what home means, the children's
feast, when the old grow young again.
A happy Christmas, then, to all.

All the Year Round.

Christmas comes all the year. Christ
mas is giving.
Christmas is losing ones life and
finding 1t again in the heart Of another.
Wherever we find good will, humani-
ty, fellow feeling, there we find a heart
celebrating Christmas. The most dell
cate pleasures Of Christmas spring from
the gifts we make to others, from
the happiness we can impart to others
from the Abandonment Of ourselves to
another's Joy.
The more utterly we lose ourselves
In the lives Of others the more we are
keeping Christmas. The losing OF our
OWL life, to find It in another, is for
ever the Christmas token. It was OF
this the herald angels sang.
It was this the good shepherds wor-
shipped.
And this Is the best way Of spending
Christmas.

chrIstmas Carols at Nantucket.

The custom of singing Christmas
carols In the streets still obtains at
Nantucket. Every Christmas eve the
school children march through the old
cobbled streets of the town and sing
their songs.
All the ancient houses are illuminat-
ed with candles In the windows, and
the children always stop and serenade
their favorites. 1t is very pretty to
hear them, and they never forget to
sing for what they call the "shut ms"

Test Your Gifts.

~HRISTMAS gifts should be free
from frlppery, mere temporary
worth, the solely worldly or ma
terial value. This is the first test
genuineness.
The second, a Christmas gift should
be in keeping with ones purse-unos-

A Christmas gift should display good
taste-carefulness
A Christmas gift should confer real
Observation-Disclosures.
A Christmas gift should produce I'M
feigned pleasure-interest.
A Christmas gift should be some
thing you would wish associated with
thoughts Of yourself-friendship.
A Christmas gift should, If possible
be something that can be shared with
others--kIndliness
A Christmas gift should, as long as
II lasts, give as much delight as on
Christmas morning-quality.
A Christmas gift should be some
thing you yourself would be glad to
possess-sincerity.
A Christmas gift should be some
thing you have selected. not something
picked up by chance-heartiness-

thing you take pleasure in thinking OF
afterward as having been given by you

It was II miles by dog sleigh to
Esquimaux Harbor and Alphonse
had plenty of time to cover it. He
anticipated no difficulty, and in any
event none could exist. He was the
mail carrier, and it is an axiom of
the service that the mails have to go
through.
But Alphonse had another cause
for looking forward to his arrival at
Esquimaux. There lived Nanette,
his sweetheart, who had pledged her
self to become engaged to him as
soon as he secured the contract. And
he had secured it, and was on his
way to present the visible proof in
the shape of his own presence.
He knew how bitterly his rival,
Jean Petit, had resented his winning
the girls love. Jean had been half
drunk ever since Alphonse secured
the mail contract, and Alphonse
learned all along the road of the
threats that he had made against
him.
Alphonse was not thinking of
them.l Nor was he thinking of Jean
Petit. All his thought were concen-
trated upon Nanette as the dogs
swung over the hill into the miles of
stunted brentwood that line the trail
to within seven miles of the ter
minus.
AS he did so a figure Ieaped out
from among the underground of the
preceding year, tall sticks of aborted
trees and tangled brier roots, and
seized him by the arms. Alphonse
recognized Jean, mad with drink, |
mad to the point of murder. He

ton or she would have said about 20.
She doesn't tell you that by answer
ing those questions she practically
gave her Ife's history. No doubt
Miss Herald answered the questions
truthfully; perhaps she told them
that she was a college graduate; told
them that at present she was en-
plOyed as a writer for the Chicago
Herald. Besides answering the ques-
tiOns, Helen, no doubt, being an edu-
Gated and clever little girl, went to
the store dressed quite stunningly
and made a hit with the manager
right off the reel; and received, in
the form of position, one of the best
in the place.
Now, Mister Editor, while her
story might be true in her and this
particular case, applying for work as
she did, with the education she no
doubt has, l still believe that she
wrote an article that is not generally
true and does not state the condition
Of the average Chicago working girl
by long shot. She has no right, with
her little three-day investigation, to
pose as a critic of the working girl,
neither has the Herald any moral
right to send Helen out on such an
without making it long
and rigid enough to be able to pre-
sent the truth without fear or favor.
Such articles either deceive some
people, because they don't know any
better, or angers some because they
know that the paper is slipping some
thing on them. It's just such arti--
cles as this that harm the the work
ing class. and does not do the news
paper a particle Of good, except per-
haps a few more ads from some of
the big stores.
Some of the big stores are over
loaded with people Of authority who
are domineering and overbearing,
who never stop to think that when
