Then, too, the starbeams, who are much older than the birds, have some truly won derful tales to tell of things that they have seen1 in their trips around the world. There is the Starbeam of the Brightest Star, just peeping over the hilltop. He can tell some truly won derful tales." The little pine tree trembled for very joy. This was his first winter in the forest, and these 4hings were all new to him, just as was the snow that was covering his roots, and making them all warm with its white blanket. "Won't you please ask the Starbeam to tell us a story?" asked the little pine. "Let us ask him to tell us again the Christmas story," said another of the older pines, "the one he told us last year." So, when the Starbeam came over and rested gently on the tallest pine, he asked it to tell again the Story of the First Christmas. "I love to tell this story best of all stories that I know," said the little Starbeam.'

All the people in that country went to this same city, to pay their taxes, and when Mary and Joseph got there, they found so many people, that there was no room left for them at the inn. The only place where they could find shelter was in a stable, and here they went. That night a little babe was born, and its mother, Mary, laid him in a manger on some nice clean straw. "Away off in the East, the Brightest Star appeared. He had never been seen before, and some wise men who knew that this was the time for the babe to be born, saw the Brightest Star as they started out to find the babe. All their long journey the Bright est Star kept just in front of them to show them the way to go, and when they rested at night, the Brightest Star would rest too, and wait for them. At last they reached the city of Beth lehem, and found the little babe in the manger with his mother by his side. ; "These wise men had brought some very costly gifts to this babe, and it is the birthday of this babe that Is celebrated every ' Christmas, and it is in his memory that gifts are given to the poor. - "That is all of the story, and it is time for me to be going," and the Star beam went gayly on, dancing over the tops of the trees.- Eclipsed. jo you believe m the Darwinian yes," replied Miss Cayenne; Siete are so many more interet- j? id eccentric theories being ad- ppist noI had almost forgot F toil' it" Kve Out Malaria And Build Up The System the Old Standard GROVE S 5LES3 chill TONIC You kno Pu are, taking, as the formula is p on every label, showing it is and Iron m a tasteless form.

In Russia the children put their shoes filled with hay outside the door for the horses of St, Nicholas; and it is believed in most sections that St. Nicholas comes first on a prepara tory visit ten days before Christmas to learn which children have been good. He leaves nuts , and candy in the shoes of those who have been good, but nothing for those who have been bad, who thus know that they may expect no presents on the real Christmas day. The Bran Pie. Thi3 is an English custom. The gifts are hidden in a large pan of bran A string is tied to each package, and on the end of the string is the name of tne one for whom the package is intended.

It is tarried out in white satin embroidered in silk and silver thread in a wistaria design,, the lin ing being of wistaria-colored silk to match. This should be a hint to girls who have friends marrying during the holi day season. If embroidery is beyond the donor's skill, a tiny spray of orange blossom tisd with silver cord might decorate tho top, or the initial of the bride could be placed there.

An" with each present goes a kiss, An' all Is still an' quiet When mother murmurs: "What is thlsY An hastens to untie it. Then everybody wildly cheers An shouts for perfect gladness, An' mother's eyes are moist with tears. But not the tears of sadness. . Oh, here's a scene that gold can't buy. Or stage in imitation, The smiling face, the glistening eye Of love's own celebration. And with each jolly Christmas day We pray to know another When we shall meet the self-same way And bring our gifts to mother. Detroit Free Pres. THE WISDOM OF WAITING. "Your wife tells iT you nave givei up smoking." 'That's only until ' rirttmas; X don like her brand " TEXT Prepare to meet thy Godv-Amos 4:12. Preparednbsa Is the word of the hour. -Its application is to Drenaration for national de fense. Many news papers and many patriotic citizens are now urging the United States government to prepare for war in the time of peace. This application of the idea to the nation has one strong competitor for consideration and that is prepa ration for man's eternal welfare. The preparedness first spoken of is in connection with a possible enemy of 'greater present military strength. God it? very strong, and if it is pos sible for man to so act that he encoun ters Qpd as an enemy, is he able to meet him? Meeting God. What is it to meet God? Man meets God in, his everyday obligations. Some of these are communal, while others are individual. Men are bs communi ties and as individuals meeting God and tiiey are enjoying or suffering the consequences. There is a certain meeting of God in death, the soul standing naked before him, and it is a very common expression in connection with the death of anyone to say, "He has gone to laeet his God." When a judge in court sentences a prisoner to death he adds, "And may God have mercy I on your soul." But the chief thing in mind is the meeting of God in the final judgment. Neither taking a chance, reformation, nor becoming religious will make this preparation; only belief in the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior will do it. The Outcome of Preparation. One outcdme of such preparation will be an immediate blessing, the -establishment of peace with God and the experience of the peace of God. There is the ' realization of man's true place in the universe. He was created in the image and likeness of God and he can never be "the whole of man," as indi cated by the correct reading of Ec clesiastes 12; 13, unless he believes in Jesus Christ. There is also deliver ance from the power of death, which, while as a lion in the pathway it may terrify, is chained. This outcome means the ultimate, perfect individual and also the perfect social order. Man s not "whole" until he has a sound mind in a sound body, and both of these are the inheritance of the be- iever in Jesus Christ. A man who does not believe in Jesus Christ as his Savior, is not of a sound mind. The prodigal was not in his right mind when he demanded his father's goods and when he was spending them in riotous living, and it was only when he came to himself; that is, when he resumed rationality and determined to return to his father's house, that he became of sound mind. This sound mind will also be in a sound body. It is the glory of the Christian religion that it premises a body that is incor ruptible, powerful, honorable, glorious and like Christ's body. The blind, the deaf, the dumb, the deformed and those lacking members of the normal body, can certainly believe that they will have perfect bodies some day if they meet the conditions that God places on them. When Shall Man Prepare? Many who acknowledge the neces sity of preparation, put it off until aft er death, but while there is a most dangerous indifference to this fact on the part of those who theoretically profess it, it is true that preparation must be made before death. "It is ap pointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." That preparation can be completely made now. But, says someone, "That is too rapid, that is practically miraculous, it is a cre ative act." Precisely so, and notnmg less. There is no evolution; in regen eration. Jesus, in his talk to Nicode- mus, settled the matter of man's right relationship to God in speaking of it as a new birth. That preparation can be made this moment by believing in Jesus Christ. Two ; soldiers in the trenches of Flanders, who were brothers and de vout Christians, belonged to a regi ment which had been ordered to make a charge upon the enemy. The com manding officers said that there would be a very serious business. The younger of the two brothers said to the other, as they went into the smoko and the smothering gases, "Brother, we may not see each other again, but it is all right," The older brother came back wounded, the name of the other was found in the list of those who had been killed, tet he was prepared. fj As a Little Child.
