tegrate, quarreling about a fathers will
and making the Surrogste's Office horrible
with their Wrsngle. Better when you were
little children in the nursery that with
your playhouse msllets you had accidental
ly killed each other fighting across your
cradle, than that having come to the age
Of maturity and having in your veins and
arteries the blood Of the same father and
mother, you fight each other across the
parental grave in the cemetery.
II you only knew it,
YOUR INTERESTS ARE IDENTICAL.
Of all the families Of the earth that ever
stood together perhaps the most conspicu
Gus is the family of the Rothschilds. As
Mayer Anselm Rothschild was about to
die in 1912, he gathered his children about
him, Anselm, Solomon, Nathan,
Charles and James, and made
them promise that they would
always be united on Change. Obsying
that injunction they have been the might
nest commercial power on earth, and at
the rising or lowering of their sceptre
nations have risen or fallen. That Illus
trates how much, on large scale and for
selfish purposes, a united family may
achieve. Bat suppose that instead of
magnitude OF dollars as the object, it be
doing good and making salutary impres-
sion and raising this suuken world. how
much mora ennobling Sister, you do
your part, and brother will do his part. If
Miriam will lovingly watch the boat on the
Nile, Moses will help her when leprous
disasters strike.
When father and mother are gone, and
they soon will be il they have not already
exit, the sisterly and fraternsl bond will be
the only ligsment that will hold
the family together. How many
reasons for your deep and unfalteripg
affection for each other Rocked in the
same cradle; bent over BY the same
motherly tenderness; toiled for by the
same fathers weary arm and aching brow;
with common inheritance Of all the ,amily
secrets; and with names given you by
parents who started you with the highest
hopes for your happiness and prosperity-l
charge YOU, be loving and kind and for
giving. If the sister see that the brother
never wants a sympathizer, the brother will
see that the sister never wants an escort.
Oh, it the sisters of household knew
through what terrific amp dsmning temp
tatiors their brother goes in this city life,
they would hardly sleep nights in the anx-
iety for his salvation And if you would
make hc'v conspiracy OF kind words and
gentle attentions and earnest prayers
that would save his soul from
death and hide a mul-
titude OF sins. But let the sister dash off
in one direction in discipeship of the world
and the brother fee off in another direction
iu dissipation, and it will not be long be-
fore they will meet again at the iron gate
of Despair, their blistered feet in the hot
ashes Of consumed lifetime. Alas that
brothers and sisters, though living to-
gether for years, very often do not know
each other and that they see only the i'm
perfections and none OF the virtues.
GENERAL BAUER,
of the Russian cavalry, had in early life
wandered off in the army and the family
supposed he was dead. AFTER he gained a
fortune he encamped one day in Husam,
his native place, ard made banquet, and
among the great military men who were to
dine, be invited plain miller and his
wife who lived near BY and who, aiftighted,
came, fearing some harm would be done
them The miller and his wife were
placed one on each side of the general
at the table. The general asked
the miller all about his family, and the |
miller said that he had two brothers and q |
slater. mo other brothersY my |
Younger brother went off with the army
many years ago and no doubt was long
ago killed" Thon the General said:
Soldiers, | am this mans younger broth; j
er whom he thought was dead And how
loud was the chessand how warm was the
embrace2
