Om course, the tariff we always have with us but it lacks pep and is a little too deep for the average mind to bother with. :o: While many deplore the use of money in elections, there are not a few who think that it takes plenty of long-green to give color to a campaign. Why worry about the word "obey"j A in the marriage ceremony? It doesn't1 seem to bother the ladies in the least. 1 Are you willing to stoop down and consider the needs the desires of little children. to remember the weakness (- and loneliness of people who are growing old; to stop ask- ing how much your friends ' love you, and ask yourself if you love tneni enough; to bear in mind the things that other people have to bear on their heaft3; to try to un derstand what those who live in the same house with you really want, without waiting for them to tell you; to trim your lamp so that it will give more light and less smoke, and to carry it in front so that your shadow will fall behind you; to make a grave for your ugly thought, and a garden for your kindly feel ings, with the gate open are you willing to do these things even for a day? Then you can keep Christmas. Are you willing to believe that love is the strongest thing in the world stronger than hate, stronger than death and that the blessed life which began in Bethlehem over nineteen hundred years ago is the image and bright ness of Eternal Love? Then you can keep Christmas. And if you keep it for a day, why not alwas-s. But you can never keep it alone. Henry Van Dyke. Twenty years ago tuberculosis claimed the lives of 200 out of 100, 000 people in this country. Its rav- i ages were on the increase. In the year 1907, little stickers J- bearing the Red Cross of health be- gan appearing on a few envelopes and -I- packages at Christmas time. In that year the sale, at a penny each, J amounted to ?3,000 not much, but a starter. ! Last year $4,900,000 was realized through the sale of these Christmas seals and the campaign against the J white plague went into its nineteenth -l- year. With what results! The death rate from tuberculosis -I has been cut more than half during those 19 years, last year's toll being - 90 out of every 100,000 people. Over the period of years that the sale of stamps has supported the anti-tuber-culosis campaign, the lives of 1,300, 000 people have been saved. A little more than one one-hundredth of the V entire population of the United States. Captializicg the lives that have been J saved at S5.000 each, the saving in wealth alone amounts to $6,500,000, 000. But there is an intangible saving greater than mere figures and num- . hers can tell. It is represented by the bloom of health upon a cheek $ that was palid. :o: v- MILTON ANTHONY -:o: The reason there are so many quack doctors is that there are so many, qiuitk patients a H, over the country.'
