SPEAK KINDLY TO HIM-A
farmer once saved a very poor boy
from drowning. After his resto-
ration he said to him:
"What can l do for you my
boy ?"
Speak a kind word to me some
times" replied the boy, as the
tears gushed from his eyes. Il
amt got a mother like some of
them.n
A kind words Think oft That
farmer had it in his power to give
that boy money, clothes, play,
things, but the poor boy craved
nothing 30 much as, a kind word
now and then. If che farmer had
ever SO little heart the boy must
certainly have had the wish graft
fed.
A kind word? You may have
many of them spoken to you dai
ly, and you don't think much o
their value; but that poor boy il
your village at whom everybod!
laughs, would think that he hat
found a treasureif some one woulC
speak a kind word to him. Sup

you meet him, instead of laughin!
