Heart toHeart
Talks.
A SERMONET.
By EDWIN A. NYH.

This was Hagar's prayer:
"Give me neither poverty nor riches"
1t was wise petition.
II you are in the depths Of poverty
life can offer but little to you. The
sordid hand to mouth existence over
whelms the best and highest that is in
you and prevents your being what you
want to be or ought to be.
Similarly. If you are very rich the
abundance overwhelms the highest and
best that is in you and prevents your
being what you want or ought to be.
You agree as to the first and deny
the second?
Note this: If you are rich you must
always be alert against the machine
tons of the shrewd, else the shrewd
will surely get part Of your abun-
dant surplus. To feel that men would
rob you is to shut up the bowels Of
your mercy and put you out of touch.
Which is not conducive to happiness.
1t Is true that
If you are rich you will hesitate to
trust proffered friendship for fear
the profaer may be mask with a de-
sign behind it. You will feel that
what is done for you is done for your
moneys sake and not for your sake.
Whereas
If you are of the common herd your
friends are disinberested friends. II
you are sick or your family meets with
misfortune these friends will be friends
indeed. Common folk look after one
another in the times of suffering and
of stress.
Moreover
II you are rich your wealth exposes
you to every sort of disagreeable no
toriety. When your,forty-second cousin
makes a scandal he,is exploited In the
black headlines of the newspapers as
'the near relative of the rich Mr.. -"
On the slightest provocation your fam
lily history is exploited for the delecta-
ton Of the multitude.
Besides .g
Your labors 30 retain your wealth are
as sordid as those of the poor mortal
who grabs at mere existence. There
is nothing joyous and nothing charac-
ter making In your labors.
On the other hand
Work for a living is blessing In
disguise. 1t is a panaceal for sorrow
and makes for character. And, though
sometimes it may seem ito be irksome
and grievous, yet thereiis in it JOY
that comes In no other way.
oh, my friends. l could give you
many reason why you should pray
the prayer of Hagar.
Nevertheless you say, "Give' me the
richest
And, to be frank with you, who
speak to you have said the same, but
am free 20 say that
1t Is better to be poor than poverty
stricken; it is better to be happy than
rich.

Heart toHeart
I Talks.
PROTECT YOUR GIRL.

Girls must not run In races exceeding
fifty yards in length.
They must not compete in violent exer-
else, such as high jumping. putting the
shot, hurdle racing, and SO on.
Those are rules made by the directors
Of the Brooklyn Manual Training
school.
The girls of the school planned an
elaborate program of outdoor sports
and were very indignant when these
rules were posted.
They were obliged to content them
selves with fifty yard races, baseball
and basketball.
The girls do not understand.
They do not realize how easily girl
might permanently injure herself and
unfit herself for the duties of wifehood
and motherhood by violent exercise.
The physician understands.
The plain fact is that girls were not
built by nature to withstand violent
physical strain.
Man was built for such endurance.
and the young man needs severe phys
ical activity for purposes Of physical
development.
Even with young men. however.
overstrain In athletic contests often
has produced permanent injury. Many
star athlete has died young.
If young men are physically hurt by
this exertion. much more may young
women be injured thereby.
Womanhood spells motherhood.
Woman is made capable by nature
for the duties of motherhood. and that
is sufficient strain for her sex. To re-
quire more is cruel and dangerous.
The state understands. Nowadays
In almost every commonwealth young
girls are protected by the laws from
the stress Of physical toll
But many parents are slow to learn
the dangers that attend their girls on
account Of overstrain.
Many young girl has been made
nervous wreck for life by skipping the
rope" 10 the point Of physical exhaus-
ton.
And there is the Marathon dance"
where prizes are given to the girl who
dances the longest--a barbarism that
should be punished by severe penalty.
See thar your daughter is not injur-
ed by physical excesses. whether for
labor or recreation. else you may com
nit by your neglect a crime against
the girl and her future. =.
