and perpetuate their species. So the
kindly AllFather provided the roses
with thorns for self-protection. and
sent a host of defenders of the more
tender blossoms by causing thistles
and briers to spring up around them
like wardens Of a castle or the body
guard Of queen. And this is the reas-
on for the thorns and briers-nature' s
protection against human greed.
The legend has a wider application.
The roses typify the pleasures Of life,
and the thorns its pains. A life OF
ease and pleasure were not only USE
ful, but satiating. 1t would democrat
ize him who INDUCED in it. Safety
despoiis the rose of its beauty and the
violet of it's fragrance. Hence kind
nature makes true pleasure the re-
ward OF virtuous effort, and punish
es overindulgence with penalizing SUI
fering, TO the end that greed may be
restrained, and self-control developed
with it's attendant virtues of tenn
perance, kindness. industry and
thrift.-John B. Stoll. in South Bend
Times.
