j Christmas. t Tomorrow is Christmas day. There has been unusual effort made in this goodly little city ours to make everybody happy on this holiday, to bring smiles to the faces of wearied womkn and neighborly encouragement to despondent men, but, best of all, a particular effort has been ut forth to gladden the hearts of the little chilIren of the poor. When we recall the fact that nineteen hunWren and fourteen years ago a Christ child was torn to Mary, wife of the poor carpenter Joseph, In the manger of a barn near Bethlehem, must tiot we confess the fact that our praise of Him on Uis natal day is but a sham and pretense if the heart -sob of a single child who has looked in vain for Santa Claus comes to our ears ?

"Of the sound of all pains, whether human or strange; maybe uttered in voice that is wild, The one that strikes home as the pain of all pains is the sob in the heart of a child. We none of us know and never can know the little tot's burden of woe ; It may be a wail or the lips may be dumb, there may be but little to show. ' When the heart still is young and untutored and crude in the ways of the unfeeling throng, We are apt to forget the young of the race, unnotice the hush of their song."

Milton's Social News

And now a suggestion to you who tomorrow will watch the ecstacy of your little ones over their laden Christmas trees; who will sit at tables burdened with Yuletide feasts. In the midst of your happiness remember that there are a thousand or more of your fellow citizens who are looking forward to the long winter ahead of them with cold dread in their hearts, although your bounties have provided Christmas cheer for them. If you respond to the appeal of the Central Charity Bureau and mail a check to its treasurer, Mr. George H. Eggemeyer, will you not be better satisfied with yourself when the bells chime praises to the Christ Child in the dusk of Christmas night ? We think you could then truthfully say, "It has been a very happy Christmas," which The Palladium wishes all of its readers.

Editor Palladium: In one of our recont editorials you ay in substance American purposes seizing the world's markets, and for that reason we should look well to ur powder and be ready for war. It Beems to me this agitation for military preparedness springs from the towering ambition of the American plutocracy, that now hopes to become the economic master of the world. It certainly is now time we ask, what results will come to the great toiling people who do the world's work, fight Its battles, and will certainly pay the bills for this swaggering swashbucklering policy? Should America succeed In seizing and holding the world's markets against all coiners, would not the Increased industrial activity be answered by an flux of poverty stricken workers from other countries, intensifying the scramble for jobs and if possible reducing wages and the standard of living? Was not the buying power of the wage reduced almost SO per cent, in the last, period ol' industrial activity to which Republican "barnstormers" point with pride? .The ruling class are to seize the world's markets in which to sell the surplus, that is the product of unpaid labor. And when a normal condition of competition returns, with its comiinercial rivalry, and perfidious intriguing diplomacy, international war may result, and then the same cataclysm that In Europe makes man a brother to the dog, and feeds him at the rate of a million a month to cannon, will be our reward. But why should the people longer sustain a system that holds them in industrial despotism, crushes democratic aspirations and ideals beneath the iron heel of militarism, and makes human life as worthless as junk and life's blood as ditch water? F. FRENCH.

CURED HIS RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors said my only hope of cure was an operation. Trusses did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly

and completely cured me. Years have ! passed and the rupture has never re-: turned, although I am doing hard work : as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation, if you write to me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 104 A Marcellus Avenue, Manasquan, N. J. Better cut out this notice and show it to any others who are ruptured you may save a life or at least stop the misery of rupture and the worry and danger of an operation. adv. 1

The spirit of greatefulness expressed by those receiving the presents was much appreciated by the ladies of the club.
