Her duty was plain to her eyes, Al
she told it her lips became thin aud
forbidding. Her face fell into lines OF
hate--not love. She went into the
hall---and her tone said that Dante
on his famous Journey made no more
perilous trip. She sat down by the
girl and boy--for they were little more.
And then she rehearsed the argument
which she brought to bear on them
for their souls sake. She refused to
leave them till st last doubtless TO end
an unbearable scene. they left the
party and went to their home.
Could you have seen the self-right-
eous look upon the worn, soured lace
as this triumph was enunciated you
would have known that her God was
not a father, but a slave driver The
good old minister, with charity and
love plainly printed upon his counte-
nance made no comment. but simply
bowed his head and prayed. And /
wondered If the prayer were not as
much for the fauatical devotee and
his mistaken methods as for the way
ward young people.
IT was In part simple curiosity and
in part due to a theory of my own
that you cannot drive people to re-
ligion any more than to love, that led
me to follow up this case The young
couple had left the church. They
were no longer members of any con-
gregation though they still attended
the services in the church where they
had been an integral part since child
hood. But they were outside the fold.
And doubtless in their hearts was a
bitterness which need not have been
there. Il was due. not to the thing
that had been done. bat to the way
1t had been done.
The woman had wrought evil intea0
of good. She was so full of unchrist-
like hate OF the things that she :elt
TO be wrong that she left no roorn
for Christ-like love.
1t is terrible to think of the mis-
chief that Is wrought by people whose
hearts are too full of hatred of what
they term sin to have in it one drop
for Christ-like love.
Children are often driven to acts
of defiance by sense of resentment.
They feel forced to demonstrate that
they have not been frightened and tina
then can't be "bossed." And we are
all but children of a larger growth.
We all have the same childish quail

We none of us like to be driven-we
want to be reasoned with, and
coaxed.
A muscular christianity-whe 1t

There must be love and tenderness
and kindness If we would make men
good. And to make them good they
must be happy. In either Village or
city that must be remembered. If
we take away from them one toy we
must substitute for 1t another if we
do not desire to make them cry.

When You eaee stars.p

The man who when struck violently
on the head says he saw stars is not
far from telling the truth. The fact
is that there is phosphorescent pow
er In the eye which does not attract
persons attention under ordinary con
ditions but which is distributed and
reveals itself whenever the head gets
a sudden shock and sometimes even
in the act Of sneezing. A blow on the
head results in a pressure Df the blood
vessels upon the retina, causing either
total darkness or a faint blue light
which floats before the eyes. and it is
in this faint blue light the Imagination
discerns the thousands Of fantastic
forms and figures that by general ae-
ceDtance are termed stars; hence
while the astronomical display so fire.
quently mentioned may be said to be
entirely creature Of the Imagination
there is at least some foundation for
the idea The true nature Of the sen
sation is never very apparent. even to
the victim. for the simple reason that
it is invariably experienced under cir
cumstances which render searching
interpretive investigation out Of the
question.
