The Root of Bitterness.

Mrs. Gemmell had had her share OF
troubles. and even her joys had been
sailed with perpleXities. Her mar
riagc had been happy one, but the
young wife and mother had carried a
heavy burden of care for an invalid
sister who lived with her. Her dearly
beloved parents died suddenly OF
pneumonia in a distant city. Her
children had illness after illness, and
at last the boy died, leaving one
delicate girl. Then her husbands
large property had been tied up by
complicated litigation, and for years
actual poverty stared them in the
face. While her husband WAS in the
West looking after his interests. he
had been killed by a fall from his
horse. She could not think even now
of the anguish of that time-the crue
telegram from stranger. and then
the letters which followed every day
for week, written by the hand now
cold in death. Finally. there came a
legal decision which made her a very
| rich woman. II her husband might
but have known. Her crushed and
bewiIlcrcd spirit strove in vain for
| light upon the path of life, and seeking
peace, she found it not.
Mrs. Gemmcll had come by slow
steps to be fearful of what might
happen to her next. She had had a
high courage, but it had been beaten
out Of her. She trcmblcd at the mere
thought of further pain. She had lost
confidence in the earth under her feet.
The distrust took one curious form.
She dreaded to receive a letter.
Don't write" she would say to her
friends. 1t CHANGED that the gray
coated postman on her street was slow
Of foot. She would stand at the win
dow and watch his deliberate progress
with an agony of apprehension. She
hated him. She was conscious of
how wicked and how foolish was the
feeling; but she could not shake it
Off
All this tragedy in the woman's
life had taken years for its working
out. and one winter it reached its
climax.
Restless, lonely. comfortless, she
went one night to a special meeting
at the church. She heard a sermon on
'Who is my neighbour" The speaker
had passionate sincerity which
touched her. He pleaded for human
compassion. He pictured the hell of
the loveless heart. He declared there
was no desolation wrought by grief
and loss such as could be wrought by
selfShness. He adjurcd his hearers to
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1906-07-28

omen their eyes to the needs at thelr
doors. Especially if there was one
who was cherishing "a root OF bitter
ness'-a hatred of any other human
being-he entreatcd that another sun
might not set upon that SIN.
The next morning a new postman
came quickly down the street. Mrs.
Cemmeu saw him with a sharp pang
which she recognized as rcmorse. How
had she ever touched the life of the
hobbling old fellow whose place this
bov filled? But she hurried to the
door to inquire. Eyes, Morris was
laid up: he had those heart spells;
he might drop any time; it was hard
on him, because he had q paralyzed
son. He worried a good deal about
the boy
Mrs. Gemmell hardly waited for
the end of the story. Morris lived in
a modest suburb, but she was going to
see him, and the last thing she did
before she left was to slip her check
book into her pocket.
She never quite knew herself what
happened in that early call, but
Morris believed she was sent by God.
He was pious old ScOtchman, and
when. after an hours friendly con-
versation, a few strokes of pen lifted
the mortgage on his house and made
skiliful surgery a possibility for his
lame boy, the world was changed for
him as by a divine miracle.
But Mrs. Gemmell herself was the
greatest gamer by the impulse of that
morning. 1.-THE root of bitterness"
she plucked out with that one
generous, whole hearted piece Of
neighborliness. 1t was wonderful to
her how the whole face of the day
was changed by filling those bitter
morning moments in which she
watched for the postman with the
compassionate desire to know how he
was, and how his boy had slept. She
forgot to dread his news in the wish
to help him. Before she knew what
had really been wrought in her by that
evening sermon the preacher had left
the city. But his word is passing on
through this womans generous deeds
and tender sympathy, and it has shed
it's cheer on many other lives while it
has transformed her own.-Youth' S
| Companion.
