The Others Heart
by "WlLkIE.

How oft do we stop to think of the
other hearts We are treadlrg upon as
we stalk through this life careless
and Indifferent to the loved ones a.
round u. Man do you ever think of
that good noble woman you 50 much
admired once in your life? who 1t
seemed held every heart string Of
your manly breast but since ha, be-
come 30 common that it is only the
Old Lady now; DO you know that
heart today feels the awful careless
ness in you, do you ever tell her a Of
yore how you love her? how dear she
i to YOU? How YOU would miss her
were she gone. Do you think of
her at Christmas time with a little
token. only to be thought Of? re-
membered not cast aside that's all.
1t is not the costly present, the dis
play of wealth. She only wants you
to let her feel that you love her and
remember her woman What are
you doing to make your home the
most pleasant place upon earth for
your husband when he comes home
tired and undone, do you put your
arms around HIM and tell him you
are sorry he has such a hard work to
do? Do you get the very best easy
chair for him, drink of water. or a
nice warm dinner? DO you smoothc
back the hair from that careworn fore
head, and place kiss saying II m
= sorry for you dear all these and
thousands more little affections too
r dear to throw away can be used to
make happy heart in that husband
and a feeling of content, a welcome
lat home, sad but true not felt in all
, homes. Boys:--What are you doing
to make that father and mother proud
! of you? They have lavi,hed upon
, YOU their fondest hopes, nothing
they failed to do for your welfare,
How are you paying them? BY COM
ing home beastly drunk? BY spend
e ing your time in an clubhouse, gam
bling away the spare change your
father gave you? Keeping company
\ with women who make your sainteC
c mother bury her face for shame anc
spend her nights praying for you anc
shedding tears over you when she
| needs the rest due her after a day.
I hard work trying to make something
for you, to keep you from the hard
j ships of life. We would ask you tC
: stop right here, and think of tn,
e hearts you are SO ruthlessly treadins
S upon. Oh how much they love you
: and how little you care for them
" Bows what about that dear littl
sister who think so much of her broth
ers. there is nothing sweeter thar
that young tender heart, love for
,, brother, they lavish all on brother
II Now, brother, be careful about thu
=. poor little heart? can she say IN,
ar brothers are noblest of Gods crea
4 lures. Do you ever come home Will
your breath tainted with that ours

little heart sinks within her, how cal
she bear such reproach upon tina

heart How about the company yol
keep for you sisters sake, do yol
think she cares to see you come t.
church or leave it with some one be
meath the dignity of good people
thus dragging her to a level with the
brothers company. God forbid boys

grace, which will you be? If yo,
