"'And this shall be IL sign unto you:
Ye shall find the babe wrapped in
swaddling clothes, lying in II manger.'
"And suddenly there was with the
angel multitude of the heavenly host
praising God, and saying,
Glory to God in the highest and on
earth pence, good will toward men,
'And it came to pass, as the angels
were gone away from them into heav-
en-, the shepherds said, one to another,
Let us now go even unto Bethlehem,
and see this thing which is come to
pass, which the Lord hath made known
unto u.s."
Their minds filed only with
thoughts of the wonderful babe they
were to see, the shepherds abandoned
their fiocks and hurried toward Beth
lehem.
But, 10, a miracle, The wondrous
star, which they had seen at the same
time that their Migdal Elder had be-
come Illuminated with the sheer. of the
heavenly host, seemed to shoot its rays
straight down toward the cave where
Misael had given shelter to the belated
wayfarers.
"Can it be possible that we have
been entertaining the parents of the
Messiah?" said Misael. And few
moments later, when they had drawn
near enough to look into the cave, they
saw that it was filled with light
similar TO that which had shone
around the angel; and Joseph came
out to them and told them of the birth
of the babe, and led them in toward
the manger, in which they found that
Its mother had Graded 1t.
And the four shepherds prostrated
themselves before the babe, and
adored God: and then they told Jo-
seph of what they had seen.
And when they found that the moth
er of the divine babe needed no help
from mortal hands they went back to
their fiocks.

Iron Clothes with the Feet.

In Cairo men employed in the ma
tive tailoring establishments iron
clothes with their feet. Except for
the long handle, the irons are shaped
like an ordinary tlat-iron, but are
larger. A solid block of wood rests
on the top of the iron, and on this
the men place one foot, guiding the
iron in the desired direction by means
of the handle. For the sake of con-
yenience. ironing boards are raised
only few inches from the ground,
and, however strange the method may
seem. the work is done well and ex-
peditiously.

said, ''and have spent three days

..If you Will accept such accommo-
dations as l can Afford" said the
shepherd Misael, 'I will be glad to give
up my quarters to you. They are in

of David and not so very far from
where we first met"
MY name is Joseph" replied the
elderly traveller, "and 1 am but II poor
carpenter; but such thanks as l am
able to make l hope you will accept

With the aid of the other shepherds
Misael set the cave in as good order
as so crude Il place with such meager
furnishings permitted. Evidently the
cave had once been used as n stable,
as there still was manger in one
corner of it.
And then these good shepherds went
away, leaving Joseph and Mary filled
with gratitude toward God for having
provided them with shelter in so
strange manner and at so critical n
time.
With the flute and song and stories,
the shepherds entertained themselves
until late into the night. The growing
of rooster in Il distant barnyard
sounded strangely at variance with
the sweet and mOurnful strains of the
song
"Why, the stars show that midnight
has not yet come; l wonder what could
have caused that cock to crow so
early?" said one.
A star, immensely larger than any
they had ever seen, cleaned mystic
riously in the sky directly over their
heads; and, ut the same time. lumi-
nous mist began settling over the Mig
dial Elder, the flock-tower. near which
the shepherds had pitched their place
of vigil. The mist grew brighter and
brighter until it shone like the midday
sun, but with more subdued sheen,
which enabled them to look at it with
out being blinded.
In the center of this light the winged
figure of a young man of transcendent
beauty appeared. What followed is
best and most reverently related in
the words of the gospel itself est
Luke 2, 9 to 15):
"And, 10, the angel of the Lord
came upon them, and the glory of the
Lord shone round about them; and
they We're sore afraid.
"And the angel said unto them,
Fear not for, behold. bring you good
tidings of great joy, which shall be to
all people.
For unto You is born this day in
the city of David Il Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord.

Putting Mystery to Work.

Let no one argue that because the
mind is still intangible-and probably
always will be to mortal man-that
psychology is impracticable. ElectrIci-
ty is an unknown quantity; no one
knows whence 1t cometh or whittier
1t goeth; yet it would be hard to
find anything more practical than an
electric fan on sweltering day--to
take one of the least and most homely
of its uses. Although mysterious,
electricity can be directed. its reactions
predicted, and Its power ascertained.
The result is that the element is ex-
ceedingly useful.-R. II. Platt, Jr., in
