Ifa Christian present could speak it would say tothe receiver : “The giver loves you, wishes you happivess, will try in all relations to treat you as » brother, would like to share all good things with you, and has sent me to remind and assure you of this.” Ou merchants, p wtmen, and express men say Chlristmas-giviog Is growing. Does It mean that Christ's religion le taking a deeper and stronger hold op the hearts of men ? That His Spirit is moving with mightier power upon the face of the waters of our busy, bus- ting, booming civilization? We would like to think so; we would like to believe that in sll our hurry men are tukiog more time to think of one apother and are growing kiondlier in heart and action, Aud we believe there is good ground for such a conclu- sion even amid the supersboundivg selfishvess of the day. But how is it with our own giving ? Do we give as Christians or as healh- en? Have we simply drifted into the custom without much thought about it except that we are doing, we hope, what is expected of us? Or do our gifts, large and small, wean that the sense of brotherhood Is growing with- in us? Especially ou the great anni versary of him whogave us hs life let us give in his spirit. It is this giv- ing of self with the gift that Christ tims added to the custom of exchang- I 'g presents, and thus only do his fol towers honor him. ————— A Deaths ln Nearby Counties, Union—Peler Raugler, in Lewis burg, sged eighty-three years.
