What an amount Of sorrow there 10
bound up in the word ingratitude!
Twenty years ago 'puddler' in New
York lost his wife. He incurred and
gave to his child, girl, double guam
tity Of love. He toiled and saved All
the tenderness Of his nature was poured
out on his baby. 1t was almost wor-
ship. The feel Of her arms about his
neck took the tired from his bones,
drove sadness from his heart and made
him realize that God had indeed been
good to him. He wanted her to have
more education, greater advantages,
than he had. That Is the way of par
ents. Some Of them are too good to
their children, They carry kindness
beyond the bounds Of appreciation !
Twelve years ago he sold his property
and sent his girl to Europe to study
music. She did study. She gained
fame, and her beauty appealed to the
artists Of the Old World. One day she
came back to New York polished |
woman, worldly, proud and heartless.
She didn't go to the old man and throw
her arms about his neck. He was starry
Ing for kind word, for one kiss, even
look and She disowned him. She
would have been kinder had she killed
him. He skunk away to a howell on |
the East Side and there lives on q pit
lance in order that he can each week
send to her 500. She accepts 1t and
spends it. He is proud and sad and
miserable and happy by turns-the
most wretched man in New York-who
has left only great love that fills his
good heart and the memory Of the little
girl who kissed him in those old DAYS
and was not ashamed Of her father.
And there Is Maurice Bernhard, son
OF the greatest actress in the world.
How did he repay the woman who gave
him life? He has changed his name
and dlsowned his mother He would
not forget what the world has forgiven.
He was less charitable than strangers,
Love for children! 1t Is the best thing
that life contains. 1t Is the happiness
that no words can tell. Bring them up
to honor and respect as we'll as love
their parents, to the end that the sor-
row Of the puddler and the actress
shall never be yours.
