By-the-bye, If people were pawning souls
wonder what they would get for them?
There are souls SO mean and narrow and
abominable that / don't believe even the
Maryland coin Known as "a lip and a Bit"
which is really u cents. would be given for
them. But there are souls that seem SO
overiiowihg with loving kindness, souls
that seem to rise up and look out of the
eyes as II they only knew sweetness and
purity and light, aud yet in these souls
there IS that awful awful something that we
call seltishness and which means, II will
have what | want, and be anything that
want. and do anything want and not be
found out, because find the amiable busi-
ness is the most successful" What would
you give for q sou. like thatp A colored
Chinese coin with hole in the middle
would be all that 1t is worth.
Then there are good souls that are like all
wool tlannel-warranted TO wear well and
not 10 shrink, provided the lanndress under
stands how to wash them the first time.
These are good souls, but not fine souls, not
sympathetic souls. not souls that seem to
know the sorrow or the joy of another soul
and to go out toward it III loving kindness.
Perhaps nickel would be offered for soul
like this. Then there are the souls that have
had much to bother them--th Martha
like, are troubled about many things--and
yet they try to do their best, though per-
haps the way is not pleasant one. A
generous pawnbroker might offer silver
| piece for this sort of soul. And then there
are souls that have gone through the fire of
life, been struck by the sword of tempta-
tion and like one sweet smelling leaf, are
| sweeter than they were before they were
bruised. and for these even the pawnbroker
would give gold and diamonds, ior their
| price is above rubies, and the ruby-the
| costliest gem of all--means intense love, and
