The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-10-01

Why should good words ne 'er be said
or a friend till he is deadY
II you hear a song that thrills you,
Sung by any child OF song.
Praise II. DO not let the singer
Wait deserved praises long.
why should one who thrills your heart
Lack the Joy you may impart?
II you hear prayer that moves you,
BY its humble, pleading tone
join 1t. DO not let the seeker
Bow before his sod alone.
Why should not your brother share
The strength Of two or three in prayer2
If you see the hot tears falling
From brother weeping eyes,
Share them, and by kindly sharing
Own your kinship with the skies.
Why should any one be glad
When brother S heart is sad2
If a silvery laugh goes ripping
Through the sunshine on his face,
Share 1t, It's the wise man saying
For both grief and JOY place.
There health and gladnesS In the mirth
In which an honest laugh has birth.
If your work is made more easy
BY frienclY helping hand,
Say So. SPEAK out brave and truly,
Ere the darkness veil the land.
Should brother workman dear
Falter for word OF cheer?
Scatter thus your seeds of kindness
All enriching as you go;
Leave them. trust the harvest GtVer.
He Will make each seed to grow
So until the happy end,
Your life shall never lack a friend.

1t certainly is a fact, says the New
York Tribune, that in England nowadays
what are known as american ways
have obtained widespread popularity
among ultra-fashioned people; and our
Anglo-maniac, therefore, may deduce
certain moral from the anecdote which
follows: Notwithstanding the decidedly
radical change in English manners and
customs during the last decade the Sin
sular British female of certain type
still holds her own and is an inveterate
in her proludices and as narrow in her
views as her great-grandmother was 100
years ago. To such one the sight of an
attractive American is like the red flag
shown to bull. An English officer who
has high sense of humor relates story
of an amusing experience which befell
him while travelling with his mother-in
law in the tidal train ito Dover not very
long ago. SIT might be well to tell you in
the first place. he said. with the comical
frankness peculiar to his nation, chat
am dearly afraid of the old lady, particu-
larly as she holds the purse strings and
can visit my misdemeanors on my head
in very unpleasing fashion. So l always
make point of carefully agreeing with
her in every remark she makes, and, of
course, while travelling am most obse-
qious.
"On this particular occasion Ihad hardly
settled her comfortably in a first-class
carriage when a party of travellers came
breathlessly up to our compartment, and,
in spite of mamma-in-law's stony glare,
proceeded to take possession of all the
unoccupied seats. There were two ladies
in the party, both young, exquisitely
pretty and faultlessly dressed, and with
them were a couple of men who also were
of very good form and wore irreproach-
able attire. They were all in the gayest
of moods, all chatting and laughing to-
gether and relating their various adven-
lures in just catching the train; and al
though they were most amiable about
storing away their various effects out of
our way and apologiZing to US for crowd
ing the carriage, | could see that my emil
nently conservative relative was not to be
cajoled, and that every minute she grew
stonier and more naughty. Objection
able Americans ! she muttered to me in
tones quite loud enough to be overheard
if the somewhat noisy party had paid any
attention to her. Can one never get

"'Are you sure they are U. S. A.'sl l
asked soto voice. They are very pretty,
and so well dressed
- oh, Americans are always that, in a
kind of way, went on my companion, but
you have only to listen to their voices and
their dreadful way of talking to know
where they come from. Look how under
bred their whole style is, and compare
them to well-born EnglishwOmen.
Oh, they do CRATE on my nerves and she
turned her back with obvious scorn upon
the interlopers, who, after one or two
civil remarks, took no further notice of
US.
When we reached Dover the young
people babe us good-by in kindly fashion,
to which my relative youchsafed no reply
