that one day, riding on the highway, he
met a young woman who was weeping,

when she told him that creditor attend

pointed out, ana threatened to take her
husband 20 jail for debt of thirty gum

her to pay the debt aud set her husband
at liberty and she ran off, loading the

THE REASON WHY.

A little fellow came running into the
house exclaiming, cob sister Mary,
I've such pretty thing. It's a piece
of glass, and it's all red. When look
through it everything looks red too, the
trees, houses, green grass, and your lace,
and even your blue eyes"
Yes, John" replied Mary, cit is We
ry beautiful and let me show YOU that
you can learn a useful lesson from this
pretty thing. You remember the other
day you were cross, so you thought ov-
cry body around you was cross to you.
But when you got up IN the morning in
a good humor, loving and helping every
body, they too will seem kind and low
ing toward you. Now remember, bro,h-
er, and always be what you wish others
to be--kind, gentle. loving; and they.
seen through the beautiful color Of your
disposition, will seem more beautiful
than ever.'
