MAN WITH THE SORE THUMB

"See the mar who is wailing and
railing and crashing his teeth and
making a spectacle of himself gener-
ally?" asks The Duluth Herald.
He is a man with a sore thumb. Not
literally; not a boil or a felon or a
bee sting; but figurativeIy. Figura-
lively, the man with a ore thumb is
a nan with a grudge.
"A long time ago, somebody did him
i'll, or he thought somebody did, which
is the same thing.
He resented 1t, and fell to brooding
owe it. It lay in his mind like an I'M
digested meal in the stomach Of a
dyspeptic. 1t decayed there, and
spread poison through his system. In
stead Of passing away in time, as
such things usually do, the thing
fastened itself on his system and
grew. Presently it became as big as
himself. or even bigger. 1t consumed
him, prevailed him, filed his thoughts
might and day, colored every view
like a pair of blue glasses, tainted his
motives and directed his acts.
He thinks, poor fellow, that no.
body realizes what is back Of his acts
and opinions. But-again, poor fell
low!-he is mistaken, for Everybody
realizes it.
He goes about asailing the mo-
tives and criticizing the acts of those
whom he believes to be his enemies
though they may be better friends Of
his than he is-and Of course he pre-
sents his views as the unbiased and
unColored opinions Of a disinterested
man. And Of course everybody
knows them for what they really are,
and judges them accordingly.
THE poor man is to be pitied, not
blamed. He is schenectady sick
as sick as any man with a disorgan-
lied liver. The obsession Of his grudge
has colored all his thoughts and all
his motives, and he has become that
most pitiable of spectacIes, a living,
moving, perambulating crouch.
'The pathos of it lies in the fact
that though he believes his counsel is
taken at it's face value, it is not so
aiken because everybody sees the
mental jaundice that makes it value
less.
Sometimes the patient RECEIVERS,
and becomes human again; and then
all his friends are glad and he is re-
ceived in good company once more"

TUESDAY. JUNE 80. 1914.
AN IpIoTlc

The attention Of The Forum ha.
been called to the following which
appeared in The Urbana Democrat, a
weekly paper at Urbana. O., in its Is
sue OF June %:
With such representative citizens
as Gen. J. Warren Keifer Of
Springfield, O., former congress-
man and speaker of the national
house Of representatives; John T.
Nelson, president of the Piqua. O.,
chamber of commerce, together
with the leading business men Of
Urbana, the stag Picnic given
by John P. Hance at the HanCe
bungalow east of Urbana, We'd
nesday afternoon, was a very en-
joyable and noteworthy occasion.
Following the refreshments Mr..
Hance acted as POSTMASTER and
introduced-GeneraI keifer was
next introduced and he spoke very
interestingly and was closely lis
tened to. General Keifer said his
father lived in Maryland but went
through Champaign county and
through Urbana in 1911. He said
he still had memorandum books
which his father made at that
time, noting the condition Of the
land, timber, ETC., which he saw
in Champaign county. General
Keifer said that his Ohio coun-
try was the best in the world. He
referred to the fact that a few
years ago the Red river wheat
country was opened up in the Da-
kotas and it was thought that was
the most productive country in the
world, but now the land has gone
down and is worthless.
He predicted the same future for
the great wheat land in Satkatche-
wan and Alberta in Canada. He
said that Ohio land had been cul-
tivated over 100 years and was
still the best in the country.
Here is another Illustration Of that
loft-repeated assertion, that one must
Ego away from home to learn the real
facts about local conditions. 1t will be
Ia very distinct surprise to the people of
the Red river valley to learn that the
land here has gone down and is
worthless"
It might be we'll for Governor Hanna
when he returns, to appoint a com
mission to make an investigation. I'm
d%oubtedly he will find the Red river
: valley a land of abandoned farms. Per
haps there are sections Of this great
commonwealth where the land has re-
verified to its wild state again, and
once more the buffalo ranges in count
less herds n the great rolling
prairie is again the home of the prairie
dog, the owl and the rattle snake.
This is undoubtedly the impression
that General Keifer has Of the north
west.
1t merely goes to show, how many
kinds of an idiot a man can make of
himself when he begins to ak about
something about which he knows alb
Solutely nothing.

Why Blanc, what r you doins

A Sundaym St. John :; s

What beautiful sunshine! on Sunday morn!
Gods smile to the sons of men! ,
What beautiful trees! Such stately elnsii
And oaks as sturdy as when.
In the British Isles
They raised such piles,
When Cesar came with the Romans.
Hearts of Oak!" was the British cry,
When Nelson faced the foemen.
Those ships are gone with his victory.
And iron shelters the crewmen,
While the beautiful sails
Have gone DER the rails.
For changes are only human.
And so we grow. ..
Those handsome elms
With their leafy tops hanging over
Are graceful indeed.
And see underneath
Are the roses ~blushing in beauty,
And vines are climbing.
Bare walls adjoining,
While the Red rushes by on it's duty.
Won't you walk with me-? In those shady paths,
Where the guiding hand of man,
has fashioned this pretty waterfall.
The sad distresses
or humble hearts on the lawn.
They came from cots in that handsome pile
To which. it hurries both rank and file,
When pale and drawn ana wan. *--. .
A zNa the Sisters quiet
Restore the original plan
OF noble manhood, with active brain,
To the work of the busy world.
And tired mothers forget their pain,
To the gentle breeze
Among the trees,
And the little child is curled
On the nurses lap. Poor lad!
If mothers could only learn
How food for tho work
Father cannot shirk,
Nay, strives his best to earn,
Is not the fare for a little child
On whom the Master meek and mild,
Smiled when he said,
AS he touched its head,
OF such is the Kingdom Of Heaven"
b. hear the tramp of the busy feet!
Tis Sunday, the Day of Rest.
And tender hearts are ever feet
To carry the CHEEKY zest . Fl
OF blossoms sweet. '&a
Which smile and greet,
The busy nurses, all so neat,
And the tired eyes of the Pilgrims.
'Tis the busiest day of the seven;
He goes to the room that is nearest the sky.
And deity he works. -"
But there's never a cry, &#&t ~
For ether has made 1t Heaven,
For the suffering soul
Who is being made whole.
Such work il a glorious leavep
Hid in the meal Of this busy world.
And doctors are surely priests,
Where so many souls are hurled
shivering down from the brilliant feast
Where they. had forgot ... :Ess ,,E-
How the simple lot
Brings happiness to the least. -...
So the Sabbath quiet brings a happy thought
TO the woman who walks apart,
And she sees the Hand of Love Divine,
Laid on each aching heart
BY those who serve. : H
Only Love can nerve
The Sisters who ease such pain,
st. Johns on a quiet Sabbath dav
Is busy with mercy and love-
The doctors come with healing balm
And blessings drop from above
When sun and rain .
Adorn the plain,
And the birds are sweetly singing.
