''No, Liz, no. The thought OF it drives
me wild; but there is nothing left for me
to do. Mother is crying up stairs now !;
and father has hardly spoken to me for q
whole week because of my willfulness |
have been reading the Bible for an hour,
Liz, dear, and that is what has decided
me. The command is children obey
your parents = and there is no way | can
dodge it,"
''Just like the rest of dedicated folks,
you have choked yourself to death with
the letter and thrown the spirit overheard.
Now my common sense tells me that don't
| understand the meaning of what you have
been reading. 1t is: wives, obey your
| husbands in the Lord;' and it is: Chill
dren, obey your parents in the Lord.
Now the Lord is love, Flory dear, and he
gives you these very feelings Of like and
dislike, this liking to be with q person or
| hating to be with Il person, to guide You
| through life. They are weapons that the
poor carnal flesh couldn't get along with
| out. Now il you take the pistol that God
puts in your hands 10 keep the wild ami
mails away, and lay it down side OF YOU,
and let the critters come in and devour
YOU, who's to blame | wonder? You
| mustn't think that your Father in Heaven
| Didn't know what kind of timber he was
putting into you when he got yon up, As
far as I've observed-and haven't lived
to be thirty Years Old without farming
some 'hings--there is nothing that brings
so mu n misery with il rs marriage with
out love. Don't YOU do it, Flory dear
don't you do it,"
"But, Liz, you know that shall never
love anybody. Oh why did he go and
| get married!'' And again the beautiful
head was bowed upon the faithful bosom
Of the servant and companion
"Why did you cut up so with him
Flory? Why did you grevc him by lliri-
ing with fellow you could hardly bear
in your sight? How long do you suppose
Il man with ordinary self respect is going
to stand that sort of work Sow the
wind and reap the whirlWind " There is
nothing trucr than this between the covers
of the Bible. If he has married without
love, he'll have the same kind OF Il crop. y
"What shall | do with this letter, Viz p'
"Burn it up"
"What shall I do with father and
MOTHER"
Let 'em quit y
"What shall do with my own aching
heart ?"
Put rousing big poul;ice of faith and
love on it, and then make yourself us use
full rs you can to other folks. There's
nothing like the helping another to forget
yourself.
You have made a mistake; that is. ii
