VEHICLE FOR MAiNED MEN
A Demand Ivor a Moderate Priced Mo-
tor Vehicle Arouses interest. --
Tricycle Suggested,
There is a constantly increasing de-
mand for tricycles and motor cars,
besides other mechanical appliances,
says the Scientific American. The
future possibilities for the sale of
this class of goods for wounded sol-
diers and sailors cannot at present
be accurately gauged, though the
demand will probably reach into the
thousands.
It is estimated that in Great Britain
alone from half a million to one mil-
lion tools, suitable for use by men
having an artificial arm, to enable
them tocarry n Ca ry ou their previous trades
as plumbers, blacksmiths, carpenters,
etc., could' be sold. One expert claims
that there is at present a market for
at least one hultdred thousand small
motor cars or electric tricycles, well
and simply constructed and easily
manipulated, for the use of crippled
officers and men. No sucb machine
has yet shade its appearance in the
open market, and when a practical
motor car or tricycle appears at a
price below 8500 the sale of a large
nulnber seems assured from the start.
An efficient hill climbing electric
tricycle or motor ---one easily under-
stood and handled by an armless or
legless pian—would mean. an urgent
need, and if such a maehine were
ready at the close of the war the sales
reached would be beyond any figures
yet reported.

NHL.Tp ?M'S a AI II-I.IjI`R PILLS.
Too giten one is liable to dismiss con-
stipation as a trifle. It isnot. When
you allow your bowels to become clogged
up, there pours a stream of polluted
waste into the blood instead of it being
carried off bynature's channel, the
bowels, and whev this waste matter gets
into the blood it causes headaches, jaun-
dice, piles, liver complaint, sour atomach
and many other troubles.
By taking Milburn's Lana -Liver Pills
you will find that the bowels will be kept
regular in their action, the poisoning of
the blood and general weakening of the
system is rectified, and the entire body
is restored to normal condition.
Miss Elsie Zimmerman, Thedford, Ont.,
writes:—"I have used your, M.ilburn's
Laxa-Liver Pills for constipation, and
have never found myself troubled since.
I am very glad to have found something
to cure me, and ,will always tell everyone
about them who is troubled in the same
way as I was,"

The birth of the Saviour occurred
at a moat propitious time. The need
was great, for the systems of morale
and religion were tottering upon
their foundations. It was also•a time
of great opportunity, for the whole
world was under,one rule, making it
possible for evangelists to go from
city to city and country to country
without fear or molestation, The

God has announced shall most surely

able. The surroundings of his birth
were the most humble sort, The Al-
mighty Creator condescended to take
upon himself humanity—to be born
in a manger, becoming the poorest of
the poor that none might be hinder-
ed from coming to him,
1. The Saviour's Birth Announced
(2:8-14),
1, To Whom—Shepherds (v. 8.).
In the first Christmas service the
audience was composed of . humble
shepherds. The, glorious gospel mes-
sage was first sounded forth to these
humble men while watching over
their flocks by nigbt. Poverty is no
barrier to the reception of the gospel
message. God does not reveal him.
self mainly to the princes and goat
men of the earth, "Hath no Zitod,
chosen the poor of this world, rich 111
faith and heirs of the kingdom?"
(James 2:5), Neither did their devo-
tion to their calling exclude them
from this greatest favor of God,
Moses, Gideon, Amos and Eafsha were
called by the Lord from the busy
activities of life. He never calls the
idle. The Lord has no use for a lazy
man, The working man is God's pe-
culiar interest,
2. By Whom—The Angel 01 the
Lord (v. 9). The first gospel sermon
was delivered by the angel of the
Lord.. Angels, theexalted ministers
of God are interested in men (He-
brews 1:14), and this one announced
unto men God's plan of salvation..
These beings no doubt sincerely sym-
pathized with poor, sin -cursed, fallen
men.
3. The Message—Good Tidings (v.
19), (1) A Saviour is born. Surely
this was 11 gladsome message. Heath-
en darkness which had so long cursed
the earth was beginning. to vanish.
The casting out of Satan, the'•prinee
of the world, was about to' take place
(Sohn 12:31). Liberty was about' to
be proclaimed to those in bondaf;&'to
sin, Tho way of salvation was about
to be opened to all. So glorious was
this news that a multitude of the
Heavenly host accompanied this an-
nouncement with their song' of
praise. It is, through Jesus Christ
that God's kindness and good will are
made known to man, (2) Peace (v.
14). Peace with God—peace of heart
—peace with man. How incongruous
this message with our time! The
world war was the result.of not re-
ceiving this blessed message.' (3) Joy
,(v. 10). The gospel message is a
Joyful message because it frees from,
sin and removes all the burdens of
this world,
610310. (2:15The ,Sltop16).
lterds Make Investiga-
Though these things Seemed pass-
ing strange to them they did not stop
to question or argue; they went
straight to Bethlehem and found
everything just as the angels had
said. They had the glorious privilege
of gazing upon the world's Saviour --
the very Lord of glory.
I1Z(2:17),. The Shepherds Witnessing
When they saw the Lord they
could not remain silent. They were
Impelled to make known abroad the
good news. Those who have heard
the good news of salvation through
Christ and bave verified it by per-
sonal investigation must tell it to
others, The angels said that the good
tidings of great joy should be to all
people (v. 10). Tho gospel of Christ
is for all people regardless of na-
tionality or condition. It is just as
really good news to the king as to
the peasant. It tills the hearts of all
with joy.
IV. The Shepherds Praising Gloat
(2:18-20).
The testimony of the shepherds
had a varying effect—some wonde5-
ed, and others kept the sayings and
pondered them, but the shepherds
went back glorifying and :praising
God for all they had seen and heard.
Those who have believed the gospel
message and proclaimed it abroad
have a peculiar Joy which must ex-
press itself in praises to God,,
