BEARERS OF BURDENS
NO ONE ESCAPES THE COMMON
LOT.
Useless self-Pity MaHes Us towards.
No Man sho Play tie Baby Act.
Each Ores Burden Fashioned to
His Shoul .ers.

In some form of other we are all
burden-beai ers, says the "Parson" in
the Washington Post Sometimes the
weight presses hard. And in no re-
spect Is there a sharper difference be-
tween men than in the way in which
they carry their respective burdens
What. then. Is the secret of successful
burden bearing?
In the last analysis much depends on
cne's fund of courage Nest OF us are
tempted to whimper over our burdens.
we say to ourselves, ii not to others:
Il cant carry another OUNCE I've had
sickness in my family for a long while,
or I've been suddenly called upon to
support a distant relative or I'm
bearing more than my share Of respon-
sibility in the church or in the club
and can't stand it much longer" Then
before we know it the habit of self
pity grows upon us and instead of fac
ing our burdens like heroes we draw
back from them like towards.
A beautiful woman. one of the army
OF ''shut-ins" and herself wasting away
with consumption, said to me when a
boy: God will never put anything
cTon you too heavy for you to bear"
The years have confirmed the truth OF
that prophecy. Certainly no man ought
TO play the baby act because of his bur
dens. He may undertake of his own
Solition to do too many things at once
but the things which are put upon him
to bear by higher power he ought to
stand up to manfashion and not be
perDetually whining about them in pub
lie or bemoaning them in private.
1t helps. too to look upon ones fell
icwmen and realize that each is carry
ing burdens. too. You are not the
scapesoat of the human race while ev-
erybody else moves through life dane
ing and singing like a mountain brook
But very few people have as much to
carry as | do Doubtless you think so.
but you have probably forgotten the ia
bic about the old-time monarch who
wearied with the grumDling of his sub
5ects, at last babe them all to assemble
on a certain day at a certain place
bringing each his own greatest burden
When they had come together he COM
manded that all the burdens be massed
in one great pile.
Then by lot he selected one man to
help himself from the pile to the bur
den which seemed to him the highest
and most agreeable. After walking
around the pile and looking carefully
at all the other burdens. he selected the
very one he had brought So did No
and No. 3, and so on through the list
Finally all went silently home with
their old burdens. but with contented
hearts. There is deal of philosophy
IT this ancient tale. You are better off
with your own burden than you would
he with your neighbours. 1t was fash
Toned for your shoulders And the time
may come when you may even be fond
OF it.

introduced either for the defense or
the prosecution.
When the defense introduces DR..
Koch's finger prints in evidence and
experts pass upon them, it will be their
testimony that will Largely decide The
jury. If the prints are different his
innocence will be positively, and if
they are the same, his guilt will be
established.
To the average mind this will be the
most important and interesting fea-
ture of the proceedings.
1t is evidence which has been used
