There are 18,000,000 families in the "nited States and an average expendi- ture of $3 a family would give a total of $54,000,000 for the lump sum de- voted te gift making; and the Red ‘ross expects $500,000 st least for its work. This country imperts from Germany alone $3,000,000 worth of toys, and the total imported articles when they reach the people call for three or four mes this amount. It takes 4,000,000 Christmas trees to meet the demand and for these it is estimated $2,000,000 are expended. Christmas is the children's great fes- tival and in love of them how much is done in His name? This is the sea- won for saying the kind word and doing the cheerful deed—as a memorial of the One who said: “As ye do unto the ast of these, 50 do ye unto Me.” mw NO EXTRA SESSION.

Sunday evening, took occasion to request all in the audience who en- joved their work to manifest it by a show of hands, and to his surprise not fourteen per cent. responded. This evidence of dissatisfaction Dr. Faunce regarded as discouraging and expressed the opinion that under such conditions civilization could not en- ! dure, apparently forgetful of the fact that what ci ation we have has been produced not because better conditions but despite the very condi tions deplored. Perhaps, if he had asked how many enjoyed the fruits of their labor he would have found many more Te- sponding. Such a test as this is much like a straw vote which is weak and unsa ctory as the implies. Men would enjoy their work more if | always as name they thought better. Too many per- sons use their minds against r own | peace of mind. They vearn for leisure when it more of a curse than a Llessipg, and they fret over the f tions 'of life rather than to prize con stantly what is good in it Grumbling i often more of a habit than a real grievance, is also fault- finding and untoward picion and other thing which unnes arily irri- tate and make life app r ver mu werse than it is.
