Keep a Brave Heart.

Said somebody to woman in my hear
ing the other day: "My friend, I am
afraid you are getting bitter. I detect it
now and then in what you say and write.
Not much, only enough to show some bee
has stung the sound fiber Of your nature
and left the rankle of its bite" If you
have any spare prayers to offer, my dear,
whoever you are who reads this paragraph
today, get right down on your knees and
implore heaven to keep you from all cyni-
cisms and bitterness. Try hard to pre-
serve your faith in the ultimate victory of
good over evil, and in the fair shining of
an untroubled sun behind these flying
clouds.
When you and l let go our hold on hope
we join hands with despair, and despair is
guide that leads the soul downward. No
matter how hard life may be, how the storm
may beat, or however unceasing the grind
may be, hold fast to your faith in the Cap
tain who never lost battle yet, nor ever
signaled the trumpets to call retreat.
Everything is coming out right in the end.
Nothing can withstand the advance of an
earnest soul.
There is not material force enough in
the universe to keep it down. Difficulties
vanish before steady front. Was it not

Keep 1t to Yourself.

Don't tell your husband your every
thought. Many of them are not worth
telling-and don't ask to know his. This
is not secretiveness, but common sense
and delicacy; as much SO as the feeling
that prompts you to say your morning
prayer inaudibly, and to take your bath in
private.
Do you think that any reserve is fatal to
the oneness of an ideal marriageS Have
you heard of the ''atomic theory2" How
scientists tell us that all palpable objects,
even granite, are composed of innumera-
BILE infnitesimal atoms, which, however
close they may seem to be, never really
touch each other? This is true of the
heart of a man and a woman.
They can never quite touch, for the most
devoted husband and wife can never see
anything from exactly the same point of
view, or feel anything in exactly the same
manner and degree. This is the inevitable
consequence of differing sex; but they may
come so near that nothing can come be-
tween; so near as to support each other
and resist tho world with granitic strength
and solidarity. P I. Barnunl in
Ladies' Home journal.
