A Friendly Sound,

For years." said a steady-going
man, IL had never been away from
home over night, and then things
happened that made it necessary for
me to travel great deal. At first
| found it very difficult to get to
sleep nights. | stopped at good
hotels and almost always had good
rooms and good beds, but there
seemed to be something the mat
ter, and | couldn't tell what, and /
found it hard to get asleep.
81 mentioned this fact to friend,
who said, get a clock | always
have clock in my room at home,
and | am accustomed to the sound
of its ticking. It is curious how
silent and strange room may
seem without it. That was what
| wanted-a clock-and | bought
one. Now when | get to my room
in hotel, usually the first thing /
do is to put my clock OH the shelf.
1t ticks away bravely, friendly
and familiar sound, and | go to
sleep without any trouble. New

The other man made assent, and
went on reading, but at the end of
half an hour had hardly finished
the first column. Just as the wait

second and perhaps impatient APP
plication, he noticed that the reader
had lost one of his organs of sight,
His resentment vanished.

THE MAN WHO NEVER swEAR'

THE MAN WHO NEVER SWEARs
I've often wondered how he feels,
When troubles come his way,
When everything goes wrong, and clouds
Obscure his sunny day;
For instance, when gust Of wind
Takes of the tile he wears,
l wonder what he thinks about,
The man that never swears
or when TO make u business trip
He hastens through the ram;
And gains the station Just In time
To miss the morning train;
How does he feel US in the west
The express disappears!
wonder IL he thinks bad words,
The man that never swears
The world is full Of trying scenes.
No matter where we go.
The truly good are tempted sore,
As you, perhaps, may know
And when I find him vexed and mad,
My sympathy he shares.
For imagine how he feels,
The man that never swcars
