No man cared for my soul Psalm Ia: g.
Human assets are the most valuable. In
vestmcnts in souls have ever brought the
richest dividends. What a loss to the world
had the callow undcveloped youth Of our
text been finally extlngushed at this time
Of loneliness and dependency when no
one seemed 20 care for his soul but the
great God above There were poets and
scholars who made their mark In David's
era. There were soldiers OF dashing fame
There were men of wealth who bulged large
I'm the common eve But the uncared for
youth hated and cast out was destined 70
overtup them All In the service to humanity.
Who can measure the inspiration OF his
encounter with the giant Ph1lstine upon
the ambitious mind Of youth in Davids
day and since leading to the overthrow
of many a giant evil!
; Who can estimate the value OF the Psalms
/ in unifying believers. in volcing the re-
ligious instinct and in leading the footsteps
Of multitudes seeking after God, Yet all
these future human assets and more were
humanity speaking, at the point of being
destroyed and lost to human kind, as the
outCast said mo one cared for my soul"
Sometimes the struggle TO keep ones

is no wonder the sorrows Of others pass
unnoticed. There are times In every life.
when trials troop to the assault from every
quarter as though we we're singled out for
I slaughter. Again even when there is real
sympathy. a sense OF timidty and OF one S
unfitness to offer help holds back the
golden word OF comfort.
Yet in the vast majority Of cases un-
concerned for the welfare Of others, espe-
cially. want Of care for the religious well

has again and again risen to human lips
and always under a divine Providence, has
II inherited the same curse that fell upon
that first instance of extreme selfishness
The agitations of modern labor sound much
like the cry of young David driven to the
cave. What does the general public and
what does that special public. the captains
of industry, who run our great enterprises
and the gossips Of men who possess great
wealth, care for the souls OF the working.

Then she told him of her noble deter

Bri6htside and His Boy
BY LAFAYETTE PARKS.


Here's an account Of a man who pulls
a chair from beneath his wife as she is
about to sit down, the fall proving fatal,
this being his idea Of a practical joke"
begins BTightside, as Mothers pride enters
TO tune up for the evening duet.
SLOWLY beating EN- to death is another
way to kill wives, but sometimes IL annoys
sensitive neighbors," remarks Son, feeling
for a match.
The man that perpetrates the so-called
practical jokes is usually the only person
who gets amusement from Them" COM
plains Father.
They are the kind Of yaps who almost
laugh themselves to death when a fat man
slips on a banana peel and breaks his
leg" says Son. Those fellows don't have
a good time at all II they don't see three
or four women and children run over by
trolley cars or automobiles during the day.
Such playful occurrences as old men fall
ing on their faces and breaking their
teeth call for shrieks of joy"
1T does seem strange how other per-
sons misfortunes seems so mirthful to
some individuals" protests Father.

The wife OF the Boss OF the Establish
ment was nursing q melancholy mood, slso
cold in the head. 1t is needless to say
that one was the result OF the other;
All day she had lounged In a reclining
chair nursing her nose and wishing she
had never had one, Reading did not seem
to take her mind off her physical misery,

Never an exhilaFating occupation at its

penses had reduced her to a meaningless

Moving to the country had not been like
putting money In the savings bank-far

penditures, as she gazed upon them,
seemed to be that every item had been alb

How then could they retrench? With a

VIRGINIAN In
BOLD ASSAULT

City Engineer Taylor was put to flight
by an eXcitable Virglnian this morn
ing.
The episode took place in the zoo. The
Virginian took offense at Mr.. Taylors
curiosity i'm his appearance and at once
made a vigorous assault upon him. Real
izlng that the Virginian was I'm no mood
for argument Mr.. Taylor retreated leav-
ing the Vrginian raging
In order to allay further fears OF those
who might have gained tho impression
that the Virginian was a hot-headed
Southern gentleman with a gun in his
back pocket It may be explained here
that he is big turke- gobbler. formid-
able creature that ought to have had a
part in THE Chanticleer."
The big gobbler has been presented to
the Zoo by S. H. Baynard. It was re-
ceived here in the shipment Of Christmas
turkeys from Virginia, but It was such a
handsome creature that Mr. Baynard
hadn't the heart to have it slaughtered.
The gobbler has become one Of the
most interesting exhibits at the zoo. A
popularity is that It will not molest chill
dren and will permit them to pet him al
liberty but the approach OF an adult will
make him flare at once.
City Engineer Taylor was admiring the
gobbler this morning while passing
through the Zoo and even took the lib.
erty 10 pat him. His sultanship flew al

on the back with a big wing and started
