What Generosity Means.

Many people get the credit of being
generous who never felt a single gem
erous impulse In their lives" says
close student of human nature.
Their generosity, SO called, has con-
sisted simply in formal, cold, grudginr
almsgiving, carried ont at the call Of
duty and unaccompanied by any spon-
taneous burst Of feeling or sympathy.
THE highest generosity is full of
strong, unhesitating self effacement and
always inspires, except in debased ma
lures, feelings Of gratitude and afrec-
ton. Almsgiving is one of the least
OF its attributes. 1t more often takes
the form OF helpfulness, sympathy and
understanding. 1t gives forth compass
sion and encouragement of q kind
which Is far beyond money value.
THE secret Of generosity is unselfsh-
ness, and the way to acquire it Is tn
cultivate universal love and sympathy.~
