Kindness is a gentle trait of character that is
am sad to say. lacking in many.
Kindness. was one of the first gifts Of God "a
humanity. but sin intercepted and the human
heart was subjected TO unkindness.
II might be profitable to reflect on the lives
OF some OF the heroes Of the Bible in regard to
their forbearsnce and gentleness
Let's consider the life of Abraham Just for
moment. After he had left the land OF hi,
nativity. he showed great Kindness and respect
TO Lot in giving him choice Of all the land.
You remember that Abraham and Lot were trav-
cling in the land Of Canaan with all OF their
servants and cattle and how their servants strove
with each other.
Had Abraham been without the god given
na ture he would have looked out over the
plains with a covetous eve and would have
taken choice OF all the surrounding country and
taking his position he would have Informed Lot
that he would defend its occupancy.
There are other characters Of Biblical history
that present themselves to my mind but will
fOrbear mentioning more than two others Joseph
and Moses. Joseph had from childhod a kind
" nature else he would have been provoked &c
deeds and expressions of unkindness when his
brethren treated him so badly. After all his
mi treatment he showed hts willingness to help
his brethren when they went to him In Egypt
and you remember that he did not rub Il in
but was truly kind.
Moses was a man OF great executive ability
and strict Judgment. Yet he was a kind and
loving leader OF his people giving them good adj
vice and always listening to every complaint.

The Spirit of Winter

The Spirit of Winter is with u.s. making
its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine and
ing winds and binding storms. To many
people it seems to take a delight in MAX
ing bad things worse, for rheumatism
twists harder, twinges sharper, catarrh
becomes more annoying, and the many
symptoms of, scrofula are developed and
aggravated. There is not much poetry
in this, but there is truth. and it is a
wonder that more people don't get rid of
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them-Hood's Sarsaparilla-is easily OBJ
tanned and there is abundant proof that
its cures are radical and permanent. *"s
