SACRED MISTLET0E.

The druids with ceremonies of great
solemnity used to collect mistletoe with
a golden sickle against the festival of
winter solstice." Only the oaks bear
ing mistletoe were sacred to this an
cient order Of men.
1t is recorded that the peoples rev.
erence for the priests proceeded in
great measure from the cures which
the priests effected by means Of this
curious green plant of the pear-like
berries. 1t was collected thus cere-
moniously by the druids because it was
supposed to drive away evil spirits.
The reason among the druids for
bringing in bits of evergreen from the
woods and adjoining the house is a
most charming and lovable one: "The
houses were decked with evergreen
in December that the Sylvan spirits
might repair to them and remain I'M
nipped with frost and cold winds until
a milder season had renewed the foil

CHRISTMAS CHILDHOOD.

Christmas is, perforce, winter fes-
tival, a family and fraternal reunion.
"Suffer little children to come" Lo.
they have come. And the music of
their child voices! The concert of the
morning stars, what were they to the
natural unframed melody of innocent
childhood in it's joyous expectations?
A brief, bright morning picture with
fervid expectant fancy attuned to
peace and good will to men," sacred,
solemn, confident, joyous, peace" a
good will" and fraternal friendship
that shall fill and fructify and sanctify
the year19to come.
All, childhood, Christmas childhoodl
See how for one day it mocks the
poets lines, "Some traces of Eden We
still inherit, but the trail of the SER
pent is over them all. Its own gift
is always the best, and it rejoices that
Bill and Jim and Lizzie and Sara Jared
as well. "Peace on EARTH" but not of
earth; "good will" that shall inform
the coming year and mold the man and
woman of the future.

First christmas Celebration.

The birth of Christ was not original
ly observed at this time of the year.
1t was not until nearly 100 years after
his death that there was any attempt
at a celebration of the event at all,
and then for 300 years or more it was
celebrated at various times in the year
by the Christians in different parts of
the world. Some chose the list and
some the 9th of January. others the
Goth of March, the time of the Jewish
passover, while still others observed
the day on the Goth of September, the
feast of the tabernacles. The 10Th Of
April and the Goth of May were also
kept as the birthday of Christ. BY
the fifth century, however the 25th of
December was the day generally adopt

Eorerunner Of Christmas.

The spirit of merrymaking that
marks our Christmas holidays had it's
origin with the Roman feast called
the Saturnalia. This was festival in
honor of Saturn, father Of the gods.
It lasted for week or two, beginning
about the 10Th of December, and was
the occasion for great revelry among
all classes. No business was transact
ed during this period, war was sus-
pended, private feuds were forgotten
or forgiven, and general good fellow
ship reigned supreme. Friends ex-
changed presents with one another,
and the slaves were waited upon by
their masters and mistresses.

To Make a True Christmas.

Don't forget the lonely, the suffering,
the poor, on Christmas. Remember
that the first and greatest Christmas
gift was sent not to the rich and pow
erful, but to the poor and needy. Give
to those who are near and dear to you,
but somewhere, somehow, in your ordl-
nary life find some one who is near
and dear to no one else and make
Christmas for him or her.

w that babe, wrapped in swad-
ding clothes, lying in a man
ger at Bethlehem! Prophets were
interested, angels were interested,
the ages have been most deeply in
terested since. The shepherds had
perhaps some premonition. The
seventy weeks Of Daniels prophecy
were about fulfilled. 1t may be at
that very time they were talking OF
the coming of Christ.
Suddenly their attention was ar
rested by a strange sight in the
heavens. 1t grew brighter and took
the form of an angel, and then they
heard voice announcing the birth
of Christ as glad tidings for all peo-
pie, not to the Jews only. Then
| suddenly the air was filed with an
gels singing as if they had come
right out from the air.
We know not their wonderful
song, but part came to mortal ears,
''Glory to God in the highest" etc.
We know not who those angels were,
but we fancy they were the redeem
| ed. Adam was there; Eve was
there. Eve, who in her maternal
earnestness declared at the birth Of
her frstborn, 81 have got a man
from the Lord" hoping that that
| was he who should bruise the SER
pent's head. Now, in the fullness
Of time she had come to witness the
birth of the babe who was to be the
Saviour of her race. David, Elijah,
| Moses, the patriarchs, we believe,
were with the heavenly host.
This song reveals three things:
First.-The glorifcation of God
through the incarnation. God has
glory through his vast work in ma
ture, his providence building up and
casting down nations, etc.
In the incarnation there was spe-
cial glory. 1t was glory to God in
the ghest-highest, in that it was
above all other glory, in that it ex-
tended to all time and in that it
wrought such wondrous good.
Second.-The great results to the
earth. 1t would result in peace.
Strifes, thorns and thistles were
Astounding. The earth was torn and
bleeding by constant contention.
With Christ came peace. The result
would be universal peace.
Third.-The effect on the individ-
ual man. "Good will toward men"
from one another, from God. Out
of this good will would finally spring
peace on earth and glory to God in
the highest.-Dr. Matthew Simpson.

Perhaps the most heroic at
tempt to Keep Christmas in
conventional fashion under ;
1ncon tionG1 condi-
tions aods that made By the
late Lord WolseIey, aohen q
yoN9sg Officer, in the trenches
before SebGstOpoI during the
Cri8leGn tUGr SiTty gears ago.
He and his comrades decided
|: that the Christmas should
be honored and that there
should be plum pudding.
The pudding 1Ods COM
} pounded of biscuit, grease
. and such fruit as could be OBJ
tanned, the ingredients being
nliTed in q fragment of a
Russian she'll. Wrapped In q
, cIoth, it scds boiled for some
! hours, and a tasty reminder
of the great festival 1cas ca
OerIy looked torl0Grd to By
, the hungry officers. But before
the pudding aoGS considered
cooked orders came trans
feTTin0 WoIseley and his tent
, companions to a distant part
of the aoorEs.
Should they Iedve the pHd-
ding until their return or eat
. it as it aoass They acre han-
Ory, and the latter CT urSe acas
decided upon. The pudding
ioas duly swallowed, and
. aioay they aoent in obedience
to orders. Late that night
WolSeley loGs troubled 1oith
s Internal disturbances that ne
E ceSsitdted the Doctors kindly
administrations 1t seemed, said
the future field marshal, as If
pieces of Russian shell toere
8 rolling against each other
inside. 1t 4ods the only pud-
ding, the first and last he
ever made.

IN place built, like Bethlehem, in
i many cases against the soft
limestone rock it often happens
that the existence of cave where
the house was to be was great at
traction since it offered a ready
made, dry, above ground cellar as
well as specially suitable spot for
the household animals and for
storeroom. 1t would seem that Jo-
seph was at last able to get room in
some such back portion of house,
and there, we are told, Mary bore
her divine Son.
A cave below the high altar Of
the Church of the Nativity is now
shown as the very place where this
august event TRANSFERRED; a little re-
cess, shaped like a clam shell, its
floor of marble wrought into a star
in, the center, bearing in Latin the
words, SsHere Jesus Christ Was
Born of the Virgin Mary" A row
III lamps hangs round the outer
edge, the right to attend to them be-
ing jealousy watched matter, each
of the ancient churches, the Greek,
the Latin, the Armenian and the
Coptic, having one or more Of these
under its care.
The evidence for this site is so
strong that most persons accept it as
sufficient, reaching up, as it does, to
within living memory of the days of
the apostles. But even if this be an
illusion the fact remains that in this
petty village the Saviour of the
world was made man for our re-
demption. No wonder that we read
of the anthem Of the angels, for
surely nothing could draw forth the
interest of the heavenly population
like the exceeding grace God was
showing to sinful man.
The scene Of the visit Of the shep-
herds is pointed out as on rough
slope, facing the village, at some
distance to the east, Bethlehem ly-
ing far above on it's mountain seat.
One can follow the shepherds in
their journey to see the unspeakable
wonder. They would go along the
rich valley of Boaz and then up the
terraced hill by path still in use,
nor is it uninstructive to reflect
that, while simple shepherds were
led by angels to the manger, the
high priest and the great Of Jeru-
salem, SO near, slept through that
most illustrious night of all history,
quite unconscious of what had hap
pened. But we know of it, and may
God grant that if we cannot go with
the shepherds to Bethlehem we may
one day go to the right hand of God
and worship him there, who that
Ahight lay little child in Mary's
arms.-Dr. Cunningham Geikie.

And hearts be light in blessed hope
That death should be Saoalloaoed in
Cict0ry.
And they left their focEs and hasten
ed on
To the city of Davtd to see the babe,
The SGOiour of men and the Son OF
God,
The humble child in a manager laid
And they marVeI at that aohtch had
come to pass
And return aOith glory and praise to
God,
While the chorus echoes aoithin their
hearts
As back to the lonely hills they plod.
As the shepherds of old, let as hasten
This Christmas day to Bethlehem

For Christmas HeVer shall Oro10 old
From cons neto or centuries past.
Quaint n,umn,ers ntingle in the scene
Where pudding mates aotth Christ
mas pie.
The rooms are thick a0ith ever0reen
And happiness lights every eye.
Let Fortunatus turn his horn
OF basket loads to furnished need,
For on this day the One 10Gs born
Who kne,o no mark of class or creed
Then aoelcome, merry ChristmsGstide
another hour before zoe 90.
