BROTHERS
BY Frederick Werner.

"HE two brothers. Cert and Hell
muth Ortsdorff, had botn
fallen il love with the seIte
young girl and this caused many
scenes and bitter quarrels.
Cert, the older. was by nature gen
tie and quiet while Helmuth was
more lively and gay, but also hot
headed and quarrelsome- Together
they worked the old country estate left
them by their father and they had
always been the best of friends until
the girl came between them. Eacn
blamed the other and neither of them
was willing to admit that Mia Each
witt alone was the cause of their quar-
relS.
But one evening Cert laid his hand
on his brothers shoulder and said in
his gentle, calm way:
These quarrels must end, Hell
muth. Let us be quite honest towards
each other. Tell me openly: Do you
love Nita Fachwitz, yes or no?
The veins in Helmuth's temples
sweIled, but he mastered his anger
and said: Il would have the same
right to ask that question of you, but
L will answer you nevertheless. YES
I love her and intend to marry her."
Cert turned quite pale. Have you
asked her to be your wife?'
No, not just that, but l am quite
sure she cares for me-
Yes" said Cert with a deep sigh,
II think so, too. But nevertheless
you know young girls are sometimes
30 queer, and l must tell you that not
long ago she kissed me-"
What cried Helmuth furiously.
You say she has kissed you, and still
you think she cares for meT'
Yes, it was at the ball. We had
gone into the conservatory and had
just talked to her about you and
praised you a little. Then she sud
and kissed me, and said: You dear
boy"
Rather a strange way of showing
her love for me; but let us drive over
tomorrow and ask her"
Yes, Helmuth,' said Cert quietly.
''I am sure that will be the best thing
we can do"
The sleighbells were jingling mer-
rily in the clear crisp air. The dis
lance to the Fachwitz estate was not
long, if you cut across the frozen
lake separating the two estates.
Helmuth, who was driving, wanted
to do this, but the old coachman, who
was along, would not let him, so he
had to drive the longer but safer way.
AS the sleigh drove into the yard.
Nita was standing at the window nod
ding to her guests. When they en-
tered the parlor they carefully no
ticed her behavior towards each of
them There was no doubt-Helmuth
was the lucky one She shook his
hand cordially and smiled, while she
scarcely touched Gert's hand and bare

agreed that the one who first hap
pened to be alone with her, should
propose first and Helmuth was de-
lighted when Nita asked him to come
with her and have look at her flow
ers in the conservatory.
Cert was greatly surprised when his
brother returned q few moments later,
pale and with tears In his eyes.
+Helmuth, DEAR" he exclaimed did

Helmuth merely nodded and rushed
out into the snow clad park.
Trembling Cert went to Nita.

She said nothing, but looked at him
with face full of sweet expectations.

NNE of the weakest qualities in
human nature is that of laying
the blame for ones individual
fault on others.
1t is not only weak. but despicable.
Children, before they reach a reason
ing age, are the result of influences
of elders But once a man or woman
arrives at an age when the mind can
think and reason and draw concIu-
sions his or her future actions can no
longer be attributed TO anything or
anybody but the inner self.
Over and over, we see cases of two
members OF one family. brought up I'M
der exactly the same influences. and
given the same advantages, yet one
goes up and the other goes down: one
uses, his opportunities. the other mis-
uses them.
True Reformation.
Weaker and worse than his sins and
errors, seems the complaint oftimes
made by the black sheep of the family
that his misdeeds are due to the neg
lect of his parents or his guardians, or
of society to treat him fairly.
However much some observer may
sympathize with the culprlt for his I'M
fortunate environment. let the culprlt
be noble enough to take the blame
upon himself.
Let him say, 1T was my own fault
Scores OF other men have been placed
in the same position 1 was in and have
not done what I did. / can see my own
mistake and 1 blame nobody for it. and

long enough"
