These are real life stories:

lite son of an old mother. wanted to so

ambition
his care and attention. She begged
him to wait until she was gone. Then
you will be free she said And his
answer was:
II belong to God"
He acted as If be did not belong to
any one. He stepped over his moth
er's prayers and went to the mission
field. shortly after his departure his
mother died in an insane asylum.
Another:
Two daughters of a feeble old moth
er announced to her that they intended
to change their religion. which they
had a right to do.
But the mother could not see the
matter from their viewpoint. She was
too old to change her religious feelings.
She entreated her girls to wait until
The daughters did not wait. They
disregarded the plea of the old mother
She was Frustrated and is on the verge
of death.
One more:
A worthy old man OF eighty years
lived in an Iowa village. His daughter.
who was a widow. determined to move
to California. The father pleaded that
she wait the short time he might have
to live.
The daughter was obdurate. She
offered to take the old man with her.
but he said he could not leave his
friends of a lifetime.
The daughter went to the coast.
Two weeks afterward the father died
These are not pretty stories.
How many heather will that boy
have to convert before he feels that
he did right in sending his mother to
the insane asylum? Will the comfort
Of the new religion compensate the
daughters for sending a dagger to
mothers heart? And will that daugh-
ter in California enjoy the flowers
when she remembers that she sent her
father prematurely to his grave?
