',THE COMING OF THE CHRIST CHILD And it 'came to pass, when the an- gels went away from them into heaven. The story is of the uplands of Bethlehem, on Christmas morning. To announce the birth of the Won .clerfei Babe a vast choir of angels Iias sung praise to God out of the eopening heavens. The shepherds said •sine to another. These shepherds were tending the flacks from which es to the birth of the Lamb of God? Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, It is the tradition that these shep- herds: were not from. Bethlehem, but from the little village of Beth-zur (house of rock) about nine antes south of Bethlehem, And see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known, unto us. The angel of the Lord had announced the birth that day in the city 'of David, of "a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord," that is,. the long -expected and clearly prophesied Messiah, the Son of God who was to redeem the world. And they came with haste. They were pious men, and understood well the religions importance of the mes- sage they had received from, heaven, Their zeal shows their • character. Doubtless they left assistants in charge of their flocks. , And found both Mary and Jone>h. Christ was s "theib f Judah." And Tion of the ti e o the babe lying in the manger. The preceding verses have also told. how, owing to the overcrowded condition. of the little town, Mary and Joseph found no room for them in the inn, and were obliged to find shelter in a stable, probably one of the lime- stone caves common the and there the. divine Child was ,born, And when they -saw it, they made known concerning the saying which was spoken to them about this child. l d. "The shepherds did not 'inquire how this humble child could be the Christ. They began at once to proclaim what the angel had said about the babe, the angelic song that followed, and how they had found it just as the an- gel had said. This was enough for the shepherds: they believed. And all And. that Beard it wandered at the things which were spoken unto them by the shepherds. They also believed, or they would not have err z What iv could wondered. W t motive t e co dhe t shepherds have far manufacturing such a story? They were evidently simple, honest men, and inspired con- fidence in their hearers. But Mary kept all their sayings, pondering them in her heart. "The Gospels repeatedly present Mary as observing and marvelling and pond- ering over the events of the Child- hood, THE- MOTHER'S FAITH. 1 And the third day. This careful note of time indicates that the'be- , loved disciple was among Christ's disciples was among Christ's disciples disciples at the marriage. There was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. The Galilee Cana was probably situated five miles northeast of Nazareth on the road to the Sea of Galilee, the modern I'Cefr Kenna. And the moth- er of Jesus was there. 'This accounts for Christ's being present, with His disciples, Mary's active participation in the arrangements suggests that she was an intimate friend of the family, perhaps a relative. And Jesus was also bidden, and His disciples were probablyat this time only James and John, Andrew and Peter, and Philip and Nathaniel. And when the wine failed. Prob- ably because of the unexpected ad- dition of Chriit and His disciples to the little company. The another of Jesus saith •unto Him, They have no wine. This would be regarded as a disgrace, to run out. of wine before the close of the feast; and as one of the addition to the calnpany, jesus ! was expected by his mother to do i something about it, And Jesus saith unto her, Woman whist have T to do with thee? The Greek word translated "w'oman" is a term of :respect, not equivalent to our `woman.' In the Greek trage- dians it is constantly used in address- ing ciueens and persons of distinction But - while there is.' neither harshness nor disrespect, there is distance in the expression. • Mine hour is not yet come. Thita imphes that Mary had been urging her Son to work a mir- acle, for which He was not ready. Throughout His ministry He always 'deprecated this urging. E[isemother saith onto the servants. She evidently had some authority in the house, and they would obey Jesus if she told them in advance to do'so, however strange and unexpected his requirement right be. ` W'hatsoever He saith unto you do :it. Mary had taken no offence at Christ's words, for she understood,1-Iis deep love for• her, though she did not understand His plans. CHRIST'S THOUGHT FOR HIS MOTHER. These things therefore the soldiers did. They had driven the cruel' nails through Christ's hands and feet,sec had lifted Hinz on the torturing cross; then, with dice ,shaken in a helmet, they had divided His garments --among themselves, thus.. unconsciously :ful- fallwere ng prophecy. But there standing tandinby the g cross of. Jesus His mother.. She, we may :be sure, would be nearest of all. She could not yet understand dcrstan the t c great work that Jesus was there accomplishing for all man- kind, but she loved her Son with a mother's love that ecmtinues to the last, And his mother's sister, Mary the wife of (lopes. This may refer to two women, or to one. If only one, then we have the unusual occur- ence of two sisters each named Mary. Matthewand a d Mark name as present Mary the mother of James (the less) and Joses, together with Salome, the mother of James and John, the well- known apostles. If Salome was the sister of the Virgin Mary, then Jesus and John were cousins, and who so natural a person to rare for Christ's mother as her nephew? And Mary Magdalene. The noble woman .from whom Christ had driven seven de- mons, and who ever afterwards de voted her time and means to caring for him.` • When Jesus.therefore saw His mo- ther, and the disciple standing by whom He loved. John was .the youngest of the disciples, a mere boy at this time, but a marvellous boy, with the soul of a poet, a philosopher and a saint; no other 'one of Christ's followers was so close to the Master as he, in affection, in zeal, and in , devout and intimate understalidnY caf his mission and his teaching, He Faith unto liis mother, Woman, behold thy son! Here certainly "woman" was th higher sense el honor, rc'ver- ence, and love. Mary, after Christ's death, was to regard John as her son, taking Christ's place as her protector. Then saith be to the disciple, Oar Lord, in a matter of so great impor- tance, would put it beyond doubt by repitition. Behold, thy mother! Why ryas not Mary left coufidentiy in the bands of her other children, James, Joseph, Sirnon, Judas, and at least t.wci girls? Because they did not up to this time believe on Jesus, though they became' Christians later. v Weekly Editors at the Nova Scotian F.M13ERS of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association recently atetclucled a most, successful annual convention at the Nova Scotian Hotel of the Canadian National Railways at Halifax, when editors of weekly publi- :aticats Irons rata all parts of Canada, and from Newfoundland to the Yukon.

The metre, or national deuce .of the Fijians, plays 11rr important part in all eeremonies on the islands. As many as :two hundred young natives, Most gorgeously dressed, will take Part in tt meke, which may be de- scribed as a legend tom In song and dance. Sometimes It deals with a famous tribal battle of old. The dancers carry either spears or clubs, and go through many of the movements of the battle—tire steal- thy approach .to the enemy's lines, the hurly-burly of the combat, and then the triumphant return when the warriors are greeted by their chiefs, their sages, and their women. For an hour or more, without the least in- terval, a meke ' will oontXnue its way, every ac ion explaining itself, every step most precisely executed. The leaders'of the metres are al- ways particularly flue men, and they wear wonderful tappa robes with trains four to five yards long, which they manage with all the grace of a court lady. There are ether meke in which mena d o n women takeart, and these. p tell of love, the hunting of the tur- tle, or other . phases ofnative life in which men and women join. Then there is the sit-down melte, mostly performed by women, and in which a ti woman. d a depicted. s duties are dep a ed. For all mekes, bands of women and chil- dren supply vocal music. The music is not melodious, but it marksthetimewell thegreat essen- tial. Sometimes a "Fiji piano'? is used to accompany a meke. This is a thick, rounded, highly -polished piece of ebony held in the arms of one man while another, the pianist, beats it vigorously with .two short r i heavyclubs.Easyas theplaying looks, it is only an expert who can produce the proper sort of music.: To the European ear it is nothing but a sharp,i ear-splitting tattoo, very'trY- ing when carried on for hours with- out a moment's stop. l:t le a strange thing that Fijian native music is lacking in tuneful- ness, for they have a very keen ear for civilizedmus c As singers the X Fijian men are 'considered by many travellers to have the finest bass voices in the world.

Picture That Changed French Senti- ment Toward Animals. A. picture entitled "Brutality," Is the masterpiece of Patric, an Amer- ican who studied in Paris. It was in- spired by seeing a burly ruffianbeat-• ing a horse over the head with a stick on the streets of Paris. . After even- ing things up a bit by knocking the man down, Patric went to his room andresolved to paint the scene. It. took him . a year to complete the work, but when finished, so graphi- cally had he portrayed the brutality of the 'driver that the people of France'were aroused. The picture was awarded' a medal in the French Exposition of 1889 but the materials were' still unpaid for, so it was held until the generos- ity of an American citizen brought it to America. In the meantime it had fulfilled its mission- in France, and people were roused to a. defence of the unfortunate creatures held in• bondage by ;ignorant and brutal drivers. As a result the first humane law was enacted, for the protection of animals. Mr. Patric has ..not lived in vain. The painting of that picture must be always remembered in the history of the man who borrowed materials to paint it. Magnesium. Magnesium metal has been known to science 100 years this year, Though known for 122 years It ap- peared in its purest form a century ago and has been available commer- cially for more than sixty-five years, says Dr. John A. Gann, metallurgist, in a report to the American Chem- ical Society on the development of the magnesium industry. Since the date of its discovery it has been found that the metal is about seventy times as plentiful as nickel and 200 times as abuhdant as copper. Magnesium salts are also found in mineral waters and in the ocean. The .important raw material for magnesium production in . the United States at the present time is Michigan salt brines. Most Perfect Arms; Arms of which .the armless Venus de Milo might have been proud have been found at Milan, Italy; Italian painters and sculptors agree that Sig- norina Oobelli, noted Milan beauty, possesses the most beautiful pair in the world. The question was settled by a vote of the artists, which gave Signorina Oobeili a decisive major- ity, The search for the most graceful arms has been conducted throughout Italy for several months, Volapuk. Volapuk, which' made its appear- ance in 18/9, was one of the first of the "universal" languages, being fol- lowed by Esperanto, Speiin, Monde- liague, tJniversala, Kosmos, Novlla- tin, Idiom Neutral and Ho, Engineers and School Teachers.

Hints For Homebodies Written for The Advance -Times By Jessie Allen Brown A Topsy-turvy World We are inclined to think that, we are living in a very civilized age. I wonder! " Somehow, we seen to do some very queer things, for all our • boasted civilization. We pay large sums to our Doctors, after we get sick, instead of paying them to keep us well. We spendthousands of dollars, an- nually, to encourage immigration, and let thousands of mothers and babies die, who could be saved by the, ex- penditure of sufficient money, to en- sure proper medical attention and pre -natal care. We put men in goal to punish them and make no provision for the fam- ilies. The men are warm and dry and fed, and the mothers and the children are cold and hungry. We take young people, who have committed some crime, and put them. in prison to teach them' to do better, Then, we house them with old offend- ers ased virtually serid them• to a crime school. 'We have quarantine, laws, but little care is taken to c•nfol:cc 'then. Child- ren's diseases are not taken seriously and: quarantine laws are evaded by many households, - Most mothers think they are keeping proper isola- tion, but very few of them actually are. Money properly expended would statnp out most children's diseases, and save large expenditures later on, for doctors and hospitals: T.arge sums are spent to teach far- mers how to feed their animals prop- erly, but little is spent in teaching touters how to feed their children. You cannot fatten the children and sell them Intelligent supervision is given to the breeding of stock, but degenerate and sub -normal people are allowed to have any number of children; who later help to fill our goals and insti- tutions generally, Animals who are suffering intense- ly are put, out of their misery, while every effort is made to prolong the life of a hopelessly ill person and thus to add .to: their suffering. Men are punished for working a sick horse, but who ever heard of any man being fined when a sick wife had to work? Horses must not be over-worked, but wives and families can work to the last „gasp.
