smiling, friendly look, a cordial hand grasp,
will sometimes do much toward tightening
the burdens of the weary and careworn.
A pale, thin, tired looking shop girl
was waiting on the customers at her coun-

Of the customers were hurried and irrita-
ble The girl herself was cross, and per-
haps she did not exaggerate when she de-
clared to another clerk at the same counter
that she was ready to drop, she was so
tired. Presently handsomely dressed
lady, with beautiful and wonderfully
serene face, came down the aisle of the
store, and toward the counter at which
the tired girl clerk stood She saw the
lady approaching, and said eagerly to the
other clerks E'0h that s my customer

The lady came up to the counter with
smile, and bowed cordially in response to
the girl eager look Of recognition.
''Its an unpleasant day, isn't it p she
said. But we have the promise of cooler
and more bracing weather tomorrow, and
today is nearly gone. Would you kindly
