Small OOurteuies,

We are all born but once. Most OF
us marry but once. We certainly can
die but once. And IL we look at life 'as
q small bundle Of great things" we shall
certainly not think It worth while to
practice small courtesles. But II we
regard 1t, far more truly, as "a big
bundle Of small things" we shall as GER
tainly feel that few things in life are
better worth doing. 1t may never be In

for anybody fortune, shed luster upon
the family name, die for our country,
or set the smallest river on fire In any
way whatever. But If we comscien-
tiOusly and sweetly give ourselves 10
the practicing Of small cOurtesies, only
the recording angel can ever set down
the good we shall do In our day and
generation to hundreds and thousands
OF our fellow creatures in the course
OF a lifetime.
Most people despise them as not worth
doing. Few people perform them with
any degree OF consistency or loving
kindness. Fewer still are content to do
them In the best way, Unnoticed, unreg
membered, really feeling Il to be en-
phatically virtue that is It's own re-
