toward those they love. They are often
silent on what they most feel-perhaps
from confused thwarted sense that their
limited vocabulary cannot tell all the
emotions with which their little hearts
are bursting.

IN the struggle of life the hero and
the coward, the conqueror and con-

the mind which upholds Cthers needs it
self to be upheld; the honest heart which
seems so bold and true is fainting from
secret sorrow, dying from some little
wound which sympathy could stanch,
the pain of which it could alleviate.
