What have we done for Him' "Tlcre is 11 ithii, g I can do," says one. As Christinas was npproncliiii;; iu the village church u igood woman sai 1 lo a group of girls iu lowly 1111 1 strait 'lie i circuinstaucs, "i,ct ull now 1I0 sotnelhiii; for Chris'." Aft 'r tho day was over she naked the group totll htr what they had done. One said: "1 could not do much, for wo are very p or, but I had a beautiful llower I had caret ally trained iu our houi". uud 1 thought much of it, and I put that llower on the church altar." And mother wtid, "I could not do much, for wo nre very poor, but 1 can sing a little, nnd so 1 v.-eiitdonn to a piv ,r sick woman in the lane, 1111 I sang a 1 well as I could, to cheer her nn. a Christinas son." "Well, Helen, what did you do?" She replied, "I could not do much. Out 1 wante I to do something for Christ.iind I could think of nothing else to do, mi l so I went into the church utter the people who had been a l iming the altar ha I left, und I scrubbed down the altar back stairs." Jleau tiful! 1 warrant that tho Christ of that Christmas Day gave her as much credit for that earnest act as He may have given to the robed official who on tiiat day read for tho people the prayers of a ivsouii'bnir service. Sonicthiin; ior Christ! Soiiietliiiij for Christ! A plain man passing a fortress saw a Ilus siau soldier ou guard iu 11 terribly cold night, uud took otf his cut and gave it to thu sol dier, saying. "1 it ill soon be homo and warm, and you will bo out here all night." So tbe soldier wrapped himself in the Isarrotved coat. The plain man who loam 1 the cout to thesoldier soon ufter was dying, and in his dreuui saw Christ and said to Him, "You liavegot my coat 011." "Yes," said Christ: "this is the one you lent Me on that cold night by the fortress, i was naked, and ye clothed Me." Something for Christ!
