that he is an apostle of the Nor

A Common Cruelty.

Ii accused of cruelty in daily life we
should probably resent il Indignantly. yet
every time a person inh:cts an evil mood
upon his household or upon his fellow
workers he is treating them cruelty. Most
of us are guilty at times. and we never
stop to think that our innocent victims are
utterly defenseless. Consider how quickly
all members of the family suffer when one
brings his depression to the breakfast
table; how easily good spirits are quenched
by one persons moroseness; how readily
an atmosphere of nervousness, Of Immature,
or. physical pain makes itself felt when
there is no effort at self.control. No one
has a right to infct his bad feelings upon
others, and we realize this when we are
the victims. But il we have not slept well,
or if We had headache after wearisome
day, or if some business matter has gone
wrong, where is our own cheerfulness? Our
shortcomings should help US to make ex.
cuses for other peoples tempers, but our
srf5eiirgs should teach us the cruelty OF

Affections Of Home.

II ever household affections and loves are
graceful things, they are graceful in the
poor. The ties that bind the wealthy and
the proud to home may be forged on earth,
but those which link the poor man to his
humble hearth are OF the true metal, and
bear the stamp of heaven. The man OF
of his inheritance as part of himself, as
trophies of his birth and power; the poor
mans attachment to the tenement he holds
which strangers have held before, and may
tomorrow occupy again, has worthier
root, struck deep into purer soil. His
house ehold gods are Of flesh and blood, with
no alley of silver, gold or precious stones:
he has no property but in the affections of
his own heart. and when they endear bare
floors and walls, despite of toll and scanty
God, and his rude hut becomes a solemn
place-Charles Dickens.

Character Building.

which a coat of mail can be woven that the
swlftest arrow of shame or the keenest
knife Of disrepute cannot pierce. Every
thought that enters our mind, every act
we dc, and every word we utter, adds a
link to the golden chain of character. The
strength OF a steam engine can be esti-
mated To within an ounce of its limit, but
it is impossible to estimate the force of a
noble character. The hardest hearts are
softened and the most repulsive disposi;,
tions tecome fascinating. Our failures and
our successes help to form reputation that
may he destroyed by an external force,
but the destruction of a character can only
be effected by some internal force.-Our

a ChiId's SimDIe Faith,

Bishop Clelard X. Nelson Of Geor-
sia tells this story Of the simplicity
of ciild's faith in God.
The little daughter Of an Atlanta
man had been taught to kneel each
night at her crib and repeat little
prayers. When the family we're leav-
irg the boarding house in the noun
tains where they had spent the sum-
mer, the child was told to say good
bye to the others in the house. This
she did, and then insisted on going
back to her room. Her mother fol.
lowed, to see her daughter 80 straight
to the crib, kneel down, and. folding
her hands, say gravely:
"Dood-bye, Dod."
Then she was ready for her journey.
