A CHEERFUL GIYER.


The Lord loyeth a cheerful
giyer," and 1T is more blessed to
give than to receive" are faithful
savings, and worthy of all acception.
Give where your gift is needed,
where it brings JOY and gladi.ess,
and your own heart will swell with
real pleasure. To lavish gifts upon
the rich, the strong, the powerful,
in the hope that you may receive in
turn, is mean, groveling and pitiful.
Don't belittle Yourself that way.
Give freely only where love prompts,
or better yet, 20 out among Gods

less fortunate and do acts that will
brighten human lives and the bright
ness will come back into your own

The great and noble characters of
the world, the men in all ages who

been generous men. The Stunned
and hated and despised creatures of
-
the human race have always been
the misers, the stingy, grasping,
boarding pinching, wretches who,
valued money above human souls,
and Rugged their wealth in the face
of misery. The world shouts and
and laughs when such men die, but it
follows the generous man to his
