pany, he fell 10 growing over ms nHru
lot in your cara, and seemed so difficult
to please. He would pommel you with
all his unhappy thoughts, and spit out
on you the spleen Of many solitary
hours. IL seemed 20 me, after ! had
sat with him, or been out TO drive with
him, or accompanied him to some place
of diversion, II seemed to me always
that had been kicked lie was 80
wrapped up In his selfish grief that he
was blind TO all my desire TO be kind,
and apparently only wanted me about
TO listen to his gloomy talk.
And yet 1t was not simply gloomy
talk. To have offered my ear unto his
mourning would be but q brotherly serv-
ice. But his was ugly talk.
Why should he have been singled out
and struck such a blown he would reit-
crate. Did God Almighty suppose he
could be drawn TO love Him by such
treatment II God meant to soften him,
IL would be found that he did not soften
under blows. Gods treatment of him
had been such as benefited a wicked
man. Now, how was he wicked2 lie
had at one time thought of joining q
church; but, curse II, he could never
think of such a thing now.
do you then think 1t a great favor
to the Almighty that you Join a church,"
i asked.
"Confound it," he responded, what
do you mean2"
"a mean that you talk us II you sup
posed yourself a great prize for God to
win-that you would do Him a great
honor to believe In His goodness, and to
love Him; so great that you propose TO
avenge yourself on God by getting
angry and refusing to serve Him, now
that you are afflicted"
"Well, l might have believed in God
II had been--if had-why, II I had
been treated properly, you know. II ]
had been won by kindness and happi-
ness, such as other men have received"
"Stopl You blaspheme. Who gives
you all the mercies that you do enjoy7
Why, man, you are getting insanep
mo, am not. am only ugly"
Ana lat was about IT. He kicked at
his food. Why should he eatp Kicked
at h sleep, health and strength. One
day | asked him II he thought his sor-
row would DO any lighter IL his health
broke down. II he was 4 shattered in
valid. He had better not kick too
hard II he was not interested In his
own health he would find that nobody
, was. said:
"Sir, you have children. Live and
care for them. II you throw your life
away, then the beggary Of your chill
dren be on you, for I'll not take care Of
them"
did not really mean this, suppose.
Doubtless I should have done my part
for the children left fatherless, but II
made me indignant 10 see the father
kicking his health 10 skaters because
he was sad-hearted, and all the while
his children depended on him.
He Kicked at his business. What did
he care for money! Well, suggested
that he might find sorrow trine moro
bitter TO the taste II II was all he had
70 chew upon. Agood loaf in the house
did not make sorrow any heavier. A
good coat on his back did not make his
grief any more singing.
ibid I think money helped 10 bear
sorrowf" very Indignantly.
Yes, did think 80. told him that
II he went on neglectinR his business
much longer, kicking good customers.

HE KICKED.
A Short Homily on a Very Repre-
hensible Habit

Who kiclsed2
My young friend And do you ask
what he kicked2
He kicked at his trouble. His trouble
was the loss Of his beautiful young
wife. Nothing In the shape OF trouble

years, TO 4 day, before her death. !
have often been a guest at the house,
and she was n charming hostess, a true
wife, q loving mother, and, all in all. n
most gracious lady. Her sudden death
was indeed terrible.
Well, after II was all over my young
friend, the wretched husband, began to
kick. That he wept, was pale faced
and greatly sorrowing, all this did not
surprise me. These are natures voices
Of grief. But that he should begin TO
kick did surprise me.
What do / meAnp All, reader, you
are not ignorant You have perhaps
been In his place, or seen others there.
But II you do not know, III describe
It. My friend grew hard, instead Of
soft under his bereavement. He
kicked first at his best friends, as they
sought TO comfort him. gave them
sharp replies, which seemed 70 say;
Mind your own buslnessl Do not at
tempt TO comfort mel" Or he would
remain . sullen listener. a. they con-
doled with him, as II he were grating
his teeth behind closed lips. Or he
would snap out all his bitterest
thoughts at you, as II he half hated
you because your wife was not also
dead like his. He would look at your
wife, a. II abe had no right TO DO so
beautiful in life at your side, holding
her children by the hand, and kindly
patting his motherless babes. I call
that kicking.
Then, too. II you left him alone he

Two dropping lids shut out the day,
Two tired eyes forget the worlA.
Two little hands bid care away,
Two little feet At reat are curled

Sleep sweet, sleep long,
Thy day is done,
Night croons her song.

Dear smiles reflect dear visions bright
Fond prayers for her l still repeat
While whispering 70 my child good night
