Il am tired of carrying burdens"
What a mistake!
All of US must carry burdens. We
are built that way Some of us are
weary and heavy laden. Tasks thai

Well, what Of it?
IL the burdens be not of conscience
II they are the common burdens of

ship, of labor for bread
Happy we!
Did you ever watch woman of the
orient bear a heavy jar of water bal
anced on her head?
How well poised she is! With chin
high in air and unstumbling feet she
moves easily and rapidly on her way.
What grace and strength! How does
she do it?
1t is the loadl Gravity does NOT
hinder; it helps the woman.
When you casry your load you are
careful of your footing. You hold IN
your head as becomes a burden bear
er. Your eyes are in front, where
they should be- You are too busy to
look backward
Fancy what you would be without
burdens-persenal responsibility and
labor! What fantastic tricks your feet
might play! What dangerous side
paths might allure you!
No, no: burdens do not kill.
Worry about the burdens may kill.
The Chicago man was mistaken.
Shakespeare says care killed a cat 1t
will kill a man.
Yes; sometimes the harness gals us
and the task inks US. We need to dis
cover the joy of working.
Because
Greater than the common hire of
wages, more than the jingling of the
metal we call money, is the satisfac
tien we ought to find in work well
done, burden well carried--the ex
preston Of the best that is in us. in
our work. That is the real reward.
1t is our common mistake TO com
plain of burdens.
They are the making Of us.
Without them manhood and woman

man brings to her both poise and pur.
